4th Chairman of the Kiryu Clan - Dragon-Style Grappling
Introduction
Playstyle
Coco is a hard-hitting yakuza dragon who demolishes her opponents with powerful command grabs. Once Coco manages to close the distance, she shows opponents what it truly means to be the Legendary Dragon of Hololive. |
Pros |
Cons |
- Good damage - Coco being a grappler has insane damage once she gets in
- Threatening Strike/Throw Mixups - 5L, 2L, and 5M give you great tick throws into either delayed 236G or a more reactable auto-timed 236X/214G
|
- High Hurtbox - She's really, really big. You're gonna get mixed.
- Horrible at getting in - without assists, Coco really struggles to get in, 22S is projectile invluln, but you can still get smacked right out of it.
|
Please note that as the game is still in its early lifespan, certain information may become outdated.
Also note that this page is full of memes. Don't protest, this is what Kaichou herself would have wanted.
Recommended Collabs
- Amelia - Amelia's 214S ground pound grants Coco amazing damage, and allows her to convert off of more moves than she normally would be able to.
- Kiara - So about those zoners... Kiara's reflector can help a lot with fighting them. Take it and don't look back.
- Kanata - Kanata's 214S grab can be converted into a combo from almost anywhere, and a side switching grab makes Soran Bushi pull the opponent towards Coco instead of pushing them away.
- Mio - An alternative to Amelia. Her 214S punch can be used for combos, but the debuffs aren't too recommended. Save your meter for those juicy, succulent cancels.
- Roboco - Roboco's 214S beam can help you get in, it destroys other projectiles and goes full screen. Just be sure to capitalize on the opportunity it gives you.

- Very good range and hits at round start. Another way to start Oki pressure.
- Note that 2M > 3H or 5H > 3H will not hit at round start.
- EXTREMELY unsafe on block. Punishable even at maximum range by some characters. Cancelling into 22S just makes it worse at -17 on block.
- If the opponent attempts to punish with a standing attack, it's possible to intercept them by cancelling into 214L or 214M. This is still unsafe if the opponent waits.

- Halts your horizontal momentum and sends you straight down in a groundpound.
- Punishable on block if it hits high up on a standing opponent.
- Combos into normals on counterhit, or if it hits very low to the ground such as on the opponents wakeup.
- Combos into command grabs from higher hits. 236G works consistently on standing Ayame, but not so consistently on other characters.
- Drastically extends your hurtbox downward on startup.
- Has some use for baiting anti-airs.

- OTG grab. Sacrifices Oki potential for extra damage at the end of a combo, as it leaves opponents standing.
- Never use this if 2 other OTG hits have already been used in the combo, as the 3 OTG limit makes it punishable on hit.
- 2L will not reach post re-stand, but all other normals will.
- 236S is the only grab that can reach after the re-stand. It is also possible to combo into it with a frame perfect delayed cancel.
- Re-stands the opponent into an IPS state when used as the third OTG in a combo. This makes it +18 on hit.

- Frame 9 is a huge anti-air-only hit that reaches high above and in front of Coco.
- Frame 14 is an OTG-only hit with a long horizontal range. Long enough to connect after a max range 3H.
- The followup hits count as an OTG regardless of how the first hit connects. This means 22H counts as 1 OTG against an airborne opponent, and 2 OTGs against a knocked down opponent. Be careful about hitting the OTG limit.
- Can combo into SCC 22L/M or SCC 214L or SCC 22G. In the corner it links into 22G without needing SC.
- Re-stands the opponent when the last hit is the third OTG in a combo. Doing this makes it +44 on hit.

Projectile(14f-)

- A surprisingly useful move. Causes Coco to begin her crab walk.
- Projectile invulnerable after the startup until the button is released. Helps against zoning.
- Makes 5H better on block. Also improves 5M and 2H though they are still very unsafe. Using it after other normals makes them worse so should be avoided.
- 214L scc 22S is very advantageous on block, assuming the opponent doesn't duck under the fire.
- With how often you'll be using this after your heavy moves, it'll help you generate a decent amount of meter.

- Coco's airdash. Sends her straight forward, but halts your horizontal momentum after its done, causing you to fall straight down.
- When performed immediately after a jump, the momentum of the jump is stored, and getting launched into the air without jumping reactivates it. This causes Coco to move forwards or backwards in the air after 236G or 236S, and causes air teching to travel much further.
- A very risky move, given its long duration and how it can't be cancelled until it's done. Use with caution, or risk getting sniped by a Botan player. Literally.

- Uses 2 Star Meter. A powerful command grab in which Coco blasts the opponent in her true dragon form. Use it to open up defensive opponents who are preoccupied with blocking.
- Has armor for the entire duration of the move including the recovery. Must be punished with a throw, a hit-grab, or a frame perfect hit at the very end of its recovery.
- Using j.S to store a forward jump adds forward momentum after 236S hits, which lets it combo into j.M.

Combo Notation Help
|
Disclaimer: Combos are written by different authors, so the notation used can vary from the standard one.
For additional information on terminology for Idol Showdown or fighting games in general, please consult the Idol Showdown Glossary or the Fighting Game Glossary.
|
#X |
Input writted with numpad notation for the direction/motion input followed by the action.
|
X > Y |
X input is cancelled into Y.
|
X, Y |
X input is linked to Y, meaning Y is done after X's recovery frames.
|
X~Y |
This notation has two meanings: 1. Use attack X with followup Y. 2. Input X, and then within a few frames, input Y. Sometimes referred to as "kara cancelling".
|
[X] |
Input X is held down.
|
{X} |
Input is partially charged (as in, not tapped but not held to full charge either).
|
(X) |
Input X is optional. Typically, the combo will be easier without this input.
|
X/Y |
Choose between input X or input Y.
|
#jc |
Jump cancel. The number (7, 8, or 9) indicates which direction the jump cancel should be input if it is important to the combo.
|
j.X |
Jumping input X. X should be input while airborne.
|
dl.X |
Delayed input X. There will be some delay before inputting X.
|
CH X |
Counterhit with input X. This is used for combo starters that require counterhit confirm.
|
OTG X |
Input X while the opponent is knocked down but still able to be hit.
|
X(n) |
Number of hits of a multihit attack. If an attack is multihit and this is not specified, it is assumed to let the maximum number of hits complete before proceeding.
|
scc |

- Coco's most important combo.

Combo Theory
2H anchors the opponent to a specific spot on hit. This means combos after 2H are consistent, and starters that lead into 2H can be freely mixed and matched with combos that lead out of 2H.
Coco can combo into a command grab if it connects on the first frame after hitstun. Unfortunately this usually requires a delayed cancel with a strict 2 frame window (exceptions will be noted).
Fortunately, even if done too late it turns into a command grab mixup. Just don't cancel too early or the grab will whiff right in their face.
- 5M > dl 236G
- Devastating if it combos, and even more devastating when it doesn't and the opponent hit anyway.
- 5M > dl 214H
- 1 bar conversion into good damage.
- 5H > dl 236H / 236L
- 236H deals an obscene amount of damage when comboed into, but the super freeze makes it easy to punish on reaction when the combo doesn't connect.
- The timing of the grab input changes depending on distance. 5H deals 3 frames more hitstop on a close hit, so the grab timing is slightly later.
- 236L off a far hitting 5H requires a frame perfect delay. 236H is always a 2 frame window.
- 22G > dl 236S
- OTG into death. Particularly difficult as the delayed cancel must be frame perfect on the last cancellable frame of 22G.
- 5M dl 5H(CH) > 22S, dl 236G
- Counterhit 5H > 22S is +5 on hit. Not enough for a regular combo, but it's possible to combo into a grab if close enough.
- Corner 5M dl 5H(CH) > 22S, 214G/H
- When in the corner, it's possible for 214G/H to reach, and unlike 236G no delay is required, making this easier to execute by using the buffer window.

- Typical blockstring. Everything can be delayed for a frametrap.
- Combos on hit (most of the time) and can be cancelled into a command grab at any point.
- Beware of opponents mashing out invincible moves. 2M, 5M, 2H and 3H are all punishable on block, which makes mashing DP a low risk option for the opponent unless you can push yourself out of range.
- 5M is needed to stay close to the opponent. 5H is needed to be safe on block. Anything else can be skipped to mix things up.
- 2M > 5M whiffs at long range, so it's better to start from 5M at a distance.
- 2H > 5H whiffs against Ayame, and other characters in the corner. In these cases, skip either 2H or 5H unless you know it will be blocked.
- 2H > 5H > dl 3H is a combo against Coco.
- 5H > 22S is -2 on block so it's a good way to end when you don't want to risk a grab, and -2 isn't so bad that you can't disrespect the disadvantage with 236G or 236S.
- 3H may be unsafe depending on the opponent and the distance. 3H > 22S is even less safe so avoid doing it. On hit, 3H combos into OTG 22H.
|
- A swapped move order to avoid the 2H > 5H whiff issue.
- 5M > 5H > 2H does not connect at max range. Delaying 5H helps the 2H to connect from longer ranges, but at a certain point 5H must be skipped or confirmed into 3H instead.
|
- Nets a combo off max range 2M, but whiffs against crouching opponents and is really bad on block.
- It's generally better to aim 2M in front of the opponent to only get the 214L cancel if they walk into it.
- More useful in Coco mirrors because Coco can't crouch it.
|
- An unfortunately slow grab. Don't expect to land it often, but if you do then make the most of it.
|
- Starting with 2M builds more meter, but for longer combos can result in less damage due to the extra scaling.
|
- Overhead of death. Hit confirmable.
|
- Uses Dragon Glide on the ground to store the momentum from a forward jump. The momentum activates during the recovery of 236S, moving forward far enough to combo without needing an OTG.
- Does not work on Main Stage / Japan due to a height glitch.

Combo BnB
This section lists combos using the basic starter of (2L/5L) > 2M > 5M > 2H.
Anything listed in the combo starter section that includes 2H will also work with these combos. Simply replace everything up to 2H with the different starter.

- Basic, consistent meterless combo and optional SCC loop.
- Can be used as a blockstring and confirmed from any hit. 2H > 5H > 22S makes it safe on block.
- Damage values are for the 2H version. 3H deals more damage but cannot be made safe, meaning it must be hit-confirmed earlier.
|
|
- Meter generating SCC loop. Can do it twice or switch to a different combo after 2H. Avoid using 2H again, as its 3rd use allows the opponent to tech.
- If lacking SC meter for SCC 22S, it's possible to recover some mixup potential by burning regular meter on 214L, 22H instead.
- 2H > 5H whiffs in the corner, and does not work on Ayame anywhere. Skip 5H in those situations.
- 5L > 2M makes the combo more difficult. It sacrifices a tiny amount of damage to build 18% more meter.
|
|
- SCC into untechable knockdown. The micro-dash into 3H is quite strict but still practical.
- 2H > 5H whiffs in the corner, and does not work on Ayame anywhere. Skip 5H in those situations.
|
|
- A not-so-damaging corner combo that generates meter and sets up strong mixups. Builds almost as much SC as it uses.
- Connecting with 5L > 2M is a little awkward. It's safe to skip it and go straight for 5L > 5M.
- Though not strictly necessary, adding a delay between 5M > 2H gets closer to the corner for the post-combo mixup.
- The 3rd 214L triggers a non-techable infinite prevention state, re-standing the opponent for very strong mixup options.

OTG Combo Enders
This section lists alternate ways to end a combo after almost any knockdown.
- 22L/M or 214G or 236L all leave the opponent in range for 22G or 22H.
- 3H leaves the opponent in range for 22H.
- 214L leaves the opponent in range for 22H as long as it doesn't hit from too far away. It works with most combos.
- G / 4G, throwing the opponent into the corner also leaves them in range for 22H, but the timing and positioning can be a bit finicky.
- 236S leaves the opponent in range for 22H. On the Main Stage/Japan stage it's also possible but difficult to connect with 66 > 22G
There is a limit of 3 OTG hits per combo. 22H counts as 2 OTG hits against an opponent on the ground and 1 OTG hit against an opponent in the air.
The third OTG hit in a combo triggers the Infinite Prevention System (IPS), which re-stands the opponent and freezes them for a moment in an unhittable state. This prevents the opponent from taking advantage of wake-up throw invulnerability, and leads to significantly more frame advantage after 22G. This is so much better than a regular OTG that it's worth holding off on using OTG moves until you have enough resources.

- Ame OTGs the opponent after a normally non-comboable grab for a ton of damage.
- 214S should be timed at the peak of the post-grab bounce.
- Spending an extra bar on OTG 22H after an Amelia combo reaches the OTG limit and re-stands the opponent for very strong mixup potential.
- Very difficult midscreen. Much easier near corner.
|
|
- It's possible to input 214S on reaction to 3H hitting. Harder than 3H > 22H but deals A LOT more damage.
- Ame will miss if the opponent is already touching the ground during the summon freeze. If this happens then be ready to go for a mixup.
|
|
- 5L hitting the opponent immediately after Ame re-stands them, allowing for a command grab reset at any point afterwards.
- 236H deals a ton of damage but is a big commitment with a 2 frame timing window that's punishable when missed. It deals more damage without 2M > 5M.
|
- Picks up the opponent for a combo after Kanata's grab without using any extra resources.
- 214L should be timed just before the second hit of the grab so it hits late in the animation.
- Linking into 5L is easier, but reduces the combo damage.
- It's also possible to combo after Kanata's grab with anything in the OTG Combos section.
|
|
- Using Soran Bushi at any point during the animation of one of these sideswitch grabs causes it to pull the opponent towards Coco instead of pushing them away.

Matchups
- Vs. Aki
- Pray to Yagoo
- Vs. Ayame
- Matchup advice goes here.
- Vs. Botan
- Pray to Yagoo and assume the stance.
- Vs. Coco
- Pray to Yagoo that your opponent is more of a clown than you
- Vs. Fubuki
- Fubuki's 22X reversal is completely destroyed by meaty 2L as it will 22L/M and it low profiles under 22H
- Vs. Korone
- Matchup advice goes here.
- Vs. Sora
- Most Sodas will try to keep you out with 5M 6M 214X/236L/M which leaves you without much option to punish if blocked; so get ready to trade most of her pressure with either 3H or 214L/M while they input 214X/236L/M. Once you get the hit, dash in as fast as you can. If you have meter, simply 236H in to go through said projectiles.
- Vs. Suisei
- If they're a clown then you can pluck em straight out of the air with 5M or your tail grabs. If they're competent, try your best not to get blended. 236S is a VERY funny tool if they don't see it coming, but not optimal.
