Making his debut in 1984, Baoh is from a short manga series titled "Baoh", known in Japan and some other countries as "Baoh the Visitor", arguably one of Hirohiko Araki's most famous pre-JoJo works. The plot revolves around 17-year-old Ikuro Hashizawa, who is kidnapped by a secret military organization called Dress. They forcefully implant Ikuro with a parasitic worm that grants its host superhuman powers, turning him into a BAOH (Biological Armament On Help), an unstoppable bioweapon. After escaping from the organization with the help of a 9-year-old psychic named Sumire, they are now on the run from the organization and its assassins.

Despite being a guest character, Baoh fits in perfectly with the cast of ASBR, both in design and gameplay. Baoh's kit is focused on relentlessly rushing down your opponent with his multi-hit fireballs, super armor and quick dash speed, while being able to keep up his offensive momentum with his invulnerable DP and threatening high-lows and cross-ups. This, coupled with his high-damage conversions, makes Baoh a solid pick if you want a well-rounded character with above-average execution requirements.

Introduction

I will shut you down.... forever!

Making his debut in 1984, Baoh is from a short manga series titled "Baoh", known in Japan and some other countries as "Baoh the Visitor", arguably one of Hirohiko Araki's most famous pre-JoJo works. The plot revolves around 17-year-old Ikuro Hashizawa, who is kidnapped by a secret military organization called Dress. They forcefully implant Ikuro with a parasitic worm that grants its host superhuman powers, turning him into a BAOH (Biological Armament On Help), an unstoppable bioweapon. After escaping from the organization with the help of a 9-year-old psychic named Sumire, they are now on the run from the organization and its assassins.

Despite being a guest character, Baoh fits in perfectly with the cast of ASBR, both in design and gameplay. Baoh's kit is focused on relentlessly rushing down the opponent with his multi-hit fireballs, super armor and quick dash speed, while being able to keep up his offensive momentum with his invulnerable DP and threatening high-lows and cross-ups. This, coupled with his high-damage conversions, makes Baoh a solid pick for those who seek a well-rounded character with above-average execution requirements.

  • Astonishing Leap: Baoh has access to a Super Jump ability that can be cancelled into from normals on both hit and block, giving him solid combo extensions and allowing for some situational mixups.
  • Rushdown Specials: Baoh has access to multiple special moves meant to attack forward; he's all about getting into the opponent's face and staying there.
  • This is Baoh!: Baoh can grant super armor to his next special move for its entire duration.
Playstyle
JJASBR Baoh Small Icon.png Ikuro Hashizawa is a rushdown character that relies on his Sabers and his armor mode to keep his offensive momentum going, while being able to quickly close the distance between him and his opponent when pushed back.
Pros Cons
  • High Damage: Has access to high-damaging, meter positive combos.
  • Easy conversions: Can easily convert into decent damage and knockdowns, thanks to his Melting Palm special series.
  • Dash Speed: Baoh has the fastest dash speed in the game, making him very good at closing distance.
  • Threatening Options: Poses a threat from anywhere on the screen, thanks to his fireballs and very fast, fullscreen HHA.
  • Stubby Normals: While having a good approach, Baoh's buttons are rather small, making him easy to contest in scramble situations and in neutral.
  • Difficult Routing: Most of Baoh's optimal routing requires precise timing and tight execution.
  • Meter Reliant: Due to not having access to Stand Rush or EX moves, he is forced to rely on Flash Cancels for combo extension.

Baoh Armed Phenomenon

After falling below certain HP thresholds, Baoh begins to regenerate HP, with the regeneration rate increasing depending on how low Baoh's health is:

  • Level 1: Activates at 75% HP
  • Level 2: Activates at 50% HP
  • Level 3: Activates at 25% HP

Scent of Murder

When an opponent either activates an install (for example, Diavolo's Epitaph or Fugo's Purple Haze Distortion) or enters a special, powered-up state (for example, Gyro's Golden Spin Mode or Steel Ball Run characters picking up the Holy Corpse's parts), Baoh gains an increased Stylish Defense window (roughly 4 extra frames).

This is Baoh!

By pressing the S button, Baoh can spend 0.25 meter to give his next special a guardpoint state that extends through the entire duration of the move.

Medium 75 (40,35) Mid - - - - Knockdown
Heavy 115 (20, 60, 35) Mid - - - - Knockdown

Baoh rises even higher into the sky, slashing the opponent upwards with his saber before hurling it downwards at them.

  • Invulnerable anti-air, with the heavy version having the most invincibility and recovery.
  • Baoh will throw the projectile regardless of whether or not the rest of the move lands.
  • The direction of the M projectile curves after being thrown, eventually moving forwards instead of down.
  • H projectile flies downwards at a 30 degree angle.
  • The projectile Baoh throws will hit downed opponents.

Baoh fires off energized hairs from his head that combust upon contact with the opponent.

  • Puts the opponent in burn state for a moment, dealing extra damage.
  • Short recovery makes it a good utility for zoning, fireball wars, combo extensions, or pressure if Baoh Flash Cancels and runs behind it.
  • Different strengths increase the damage and number of hits while increasing the startup and recovery.
  • Baoh whipping his hair deals one of the hits, so ranged zoning will lower the move's damage slightly.

Baoh floats into the air before discharging electricity from his body.

  • Very situational special with long startup, even for its fastest version.
  • The hitboxes of Baoh's electricity will neutralize enemy projectiles.
  • Heavier strengths do more hits and move Baoh forward further, but dramatically increase the startup.
  • Deals a LOT of guard bar damage, provided the opponent doesn't escape or SG/SD against Baoh.
  • Sends the opponent flying back on hit. Hard to use in combos as a result, but some use in more uncommon juggle extensions.

  Baoh lunges at his opponent, attacking them with a flurry of saber attacks before finishing them off with his Break Dark Thunder Phenomenon.

  • Comboable into from most routes due to the quick forward movement and generous hitbox on the initial attack.
  • Underwhelming wakeup option, as it is unsafe on block and easily jumpable.
