Is anyone here playing Utlimax? Surprised to not see any discussion about it. Although I suppose with the US release only a month off, most people are willing to wait.
Ken's a lot of fun to play, but I have no sweet clue how I am supposed to keep Koromaru from dying. Attacking constantly is my current strategy.
yeah I would rather just wait the extra month for english voices and menus
Well, there's english voices in battle already, and I've heard that the english voices are in for story mode, too, but I don't plan to touch that until the US release regardless. But yeah, waiting in this case makes a lot of sense. I mostly jumped the gun because a bunch of other local people did as well.

English menus are more important than English vo IMO
navigating blazblue and psn in japanese is annoying
Yeah, training mode in particular is a bit of a pain. I eventually memorized where everything relevant was for Blaz and UNIEL, but Persona is still foreign to me.
P10 how reasonable is it to do hands -> red focus crumple -> u2 with honda? Are you better off doing multiple ex hands?
hands rfc ultra works and is simple to do (if you can do hands), although it's finnicky*. You wouldn't select u2 for rfc though - u1 gives better damage and corner carry from anywhere on screen. You'd only go for u2 if the matchup otherwise called for it.
As for is it worth the meter - yeah, I'd say so. hands rfc lets honda convert a stray jab into big damage and good oki. ex hands loops aren't a particularly efficient way to spend meter - the most efficient damage honda can get from meter usage is the jewelman combo, but that's hard to get consistently.

is there ever actually a reason to take honda u2 besides styling
in certain matchups it's better than u1. you can land it as a punish on stuff you wouldn't otherwise be able to punish, like yang rekkas, poorly spaced balrog rush punches, dudley mgb, etc. and honda can land u2 off of all the stuff you land u1 off of in those matches (focus crumples, yolo reversal, big punish opportunities)
you don't need to do rfc u1 as a dash u1, that just makes it harder. if you don't dash and just input the u1 after you've recovered from the focus attack you should scoop them up as they are falling and it'll connect fully https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YTJcr2J0Xro
charge shouldn't be an issue - the hands + the rfc gives you enough time to get charge even if you walked up
One of my complaints with honda was always his inability to combo into ultra... wonder if I should pick him up again. Still suffers from the same shitty matchups...

They gave Thunder a psuedo-projectile. It is time to start playing again.

After red focus do you need to dash cancel it like a regular focus crumple? What are the inputs for hands, rfc, u1?
