Vampire Savior/Links
Japanese Resources
Darkstalkers Frame Data — http://darkstalkers.web.fc2.com/
- Amazing framedata/hitbox resource for Vampire Savior, Vampire Hunter and even the original Vampire. While there isn't any hitbox information for Vampire Hunter or Vampire, the raw data for Vampire Savior surpasses this wiki for many characters. Until mizuumi catches up (which will be never), this extremely valuable to use in conjunction.
Darkstalkers Frame Data (English Translation) — http://clientes.netvisao.pt/anpedror/basics.htm
- This is a very old (2008) English translation of the website above. This was long before all the hitbox data was added so only frame data is available here.
Vampire Savior Database — https://vampiresavior.info/
- Modern Japanese database all things Vampire Savior. This site compiles various info such as events, players of each character, and archives of recent streams.
VampireSavior攻略wiki — http://seesaawiki.jp/vswiki/
- A wiki for information ranging from system mechanics to character specifics. This is a bit unexplored for English speakers right now, but there seems to be some really amazing information hidden in here. There needs to be a concentrated effort at some point to translate key parts of this wiki.
Vampire Savior Location Information — http://savior.s98.xrea.com/
- Alternative personal blog that acts as a resource for Vampire Savior events across Japan, sees consistent updates
Vampire Savior's Player (Outdated) — http://www21.atwiki.jp/vsplayer
- Outdated Japanese player database for every character. Although it stopped being updated around 2014 it still contains player info for the scene around that time and can serve as a resource.
Vampire Savior Tournament/Event Wiki (Outdated) — http://seesaawiki.jp/vswiki_event/
- Prior resource for upcoming and past Vampire Savior events in Japan, separated by region.

- Youtube playlist featuring all of ArcadeLegacy's video tutorials.
shoryuken.com Vampire Savior Wiki — http://wiki.shoryuken.com/Vampire_Savior_(Darkstalkers_3)
- A very dated resource, not that Mizuumi is much better in some places. Overall you're better off sticking with Mizuumi, but there may be a few things you can get from here.
VSAV Shareable Resource Starter Kit - https://www.notion.so/VSAV-Shareable-Resource-e3c98cde3e5044bf94c07826fa0a95af
