Special Moves

---

	Triangle Jump 「三角飛び」 ―　j.9 against a wall Kanon jumps off the wall behind him. Useful for escaping corner pressure.
	Wolf Jump 「跳狼」 ―　41236ABC Kanon performs a small, fast leap forward. Distance travelled depends on the version used, with A being the smallest jump and C being the largest. Air normals can be performed after Kanon reaches the peak of the jump.
	Water Slice 「水面斬り」 ―　623ABC The basic dragon punch move. Stronger versions send Kanon further into the air, but do no extra damage.
	Shadow Slice 「影斬り」 ―　214ABC (A version) - Hollow Kanon dashes forward a short amount, but does nothing. A feint move to confuse an opponent ready for one of the other two versions. (B version) - Surface Kanon dashes forward and slashes at the enemy, ending in front of them. Ends in a knockdown. (C version) - Opposite side Kanon dashes forward and slashes while continuing past the opponent to end up behind them. Kanon will not end up behind enemy if slash occurs in corner. Ends pressure, but is mostly safe. Kanon stays quite low to the ground (crouch height) when performing this special. For B and C versions, Kanon still slashes even when enemy is high in the air above Kanon and completely out of slash's range.
	Crescent Moon Slice 「三日月斬り」 ―　j.236ABC Kanon sends a small red slash into the air beneath him. B and C versions cause him to stop in the air momentarily before landing. j.B j.236A is possible.

SP Supers

---

	Moon Reflection Slice 「水月斬」 ―　623A+B A super dragon punch, but performs one low hit first. Generally rather mediocre.
	Shadow Trisection 「影殺三段」　―　214A+B Kanon performs the 214B version of Shadow Slice and follows up with two more slashes. Gives an extra 300 damage above the non-meter version.
	Linked Crescent Moons 「連ね三日月」 ―　j.236A+B Kanon sends a large arc diagonally down. This one works as a proper projectile, continuing until it collides or falls off screen, and hits up to four times for 588 damage and knockdown.

---

Level 2 Super

---

Reddened Moonlit Wolf Shadow 「赤き軌跡の月下狼影」 ―　236236C Standard Level 2 Super fare, with a charge into an auto combo reminiscent of Arcueid's 214C in Melty Blood.

---

Meta Super

---

Reddened Arc Moon Slashes 「赤き軌跡の弧月連斬」　―　641236C Kanon attempts a slash; if it whiffs or is blocked, he performs three more slow slashes to follow up. If he hits, however, he unleashes a barrage of scarlet swipes before sending the opponent slamming into the opposite wall. Delivers 750 damage, and can be comboed into relatively easy (though 2C sends the opponent into the air in such a way that the super does not connect).
