Akatsuki Blitzkampf/Anonym
Background
An Armed Interrogator of Heresy, within a religious society - The Sacred Club. She is sent to destroy the headquarters of an organization, upon which lies the heresy of aiding Gessellschaft, - the Perfecti Kyoudan. Anonym is a master of Ranbas style Gun technique - a combination of Chinese self-defence and pistols. (from character selection screen)
Introduction
- All of Anonym's shooting normals act as special attacks and inflict guard damage.
- Armor Ratio = 1.050
- Forward Dash is invulnerable on frames 1-5. The only forward dash in the game with invulnerability.
- Forward Dash can pass through opponents on frames 1-15.
- Forward Dash has some upper body invulnerability on frames 6-20 (the whole dash is low to the ground).
Throws
4/5/6+A+B: Anonym performs a quick series of punches and then kicks the opponent away. Can be teched.
j.4/5/6+A+B: Anonym grabs her enemy, flips and slams him or her into the ground below, then hops away. Untechable.
Shooting Normal Moves
5A/[A]: Anonym fires into the ground 1 to 3 shots (depending on how long you hold the attack button), that ricochet roughly at 2/3 screen point.
5B: a single shot forward.
5C: Anonym slightly croucnes and fires a single shot diagonally up.
2/3A: similar to 5B, only crouching.
2/3B: a shot even lower than 2A (so it actually hits low).
2/3C: another low shot, only this time Anonym lies on the ground, which effectively allows her to evade projectiles and other high attacks.
j.A: Anonym shoots the ground aiming at ~3/4 point of the screen.
j.B: same as j.A, but aimed at the opposite side of the screen.
j.C: a shot directly forward.
A/B/C (on the ground and when out of ammo): Anonym auto-reloads her guns.
Melee Normal Moves
4A: a poke with one of the revolvers.
4B: poke with another revolver, slightly more range.
1A: same as 4A, only crouching.
1B: same as 4B, only crouching.
1C: Anonym slides forward feet first, knocking her opponent down (low attack, techable). As with 2C, Anonym is very low to the ground.
j.4A: an overhead poke with both revolvers.
j.4B: overhead kick, aimed down.
j.4C: another overhead kick, hits higher and is more damaging.
Command Normals
リロード - Reload - 6A: Reloads the guns at any time
キルクイトス - Circuitus - 4C: An upward flip kick that launches the opponent.
カノーネ - Kanone - 6C: A lunging knee strike. Comes out pretty fast and knocks down.
アヴァタール - Avatar - j.2A/B/C: A descending front flip.
Special moves
トリニタス - Trinitas - 236+A/B/C: shoot three times reloading before it. A version makes Anonym roll forward while reloading and then shoots low. B version has a delay because of the reloading and is exactly like 5B, but with three shots. C version makes her hop back while reloading, then she shoots in a 45 degree up.
アンゲルス - Angelus - 214+A/B/C, A/B/C (also in air): shoots down three times in two directions (front and back) while jumping. The first command makes her jump and with each button she jumps higher (A the lowest and C the highest). The second command makes her shoot while doing a mid-air "jump": A version jumps back, B version stays in place and C version jumps forward. Without any ammo it can be used as an escaping tool as both commands result in a somewhat double-jump.
クルクス - Crux - 22+A/B/C: shoots once diagonally up and both bullets (from each gun) ricochet back down. A version shoots very upward and makes bullets fall closer to Anonym, B shoots a little lower which makes fall far from her. C version has the lowest angle but bullets fall the furtherst. It also works as an anti-air move.
EX and Super Moves
特攻トリニタス - EX Trinitas - 236+B+C: shoots many times in the three directions the normal Trinitas would shoot. She reloads before and after.
特攻アンゲルス - EX Angelus - 214+B+C (also in air): double-jumps upward and shoots down a few times. She reloads before and after.
特攻クルクス - EX Crux - 22+B+C: creates a somewhat rain of bullets using normal Crux three times (or more) in a row. It can be used as an anti-air. She reloads before and after.
テトラグラマトン - Tetragrammaton - executes automatically when KO'ed (needs 3 super stocks): a flash of light appears and begins hitting the opponent rapidly 8 times while Anonym revives/resurrects. This is really a second chance to not lose the round. The hits can be reflected and is treated like a projectile attack. The super will force the opponent back during the resurrection by expanding Anonym's collision box (like an invisible forcefield).
General Strategy
"Through analysis of thousands of recorded gunfights, the Cleric has determined that the geometric distribution of antagonists in any gun battle is a statistically-predictable element. The Gun Kata treats the gun as a total weapon, each fluid position representing a maximum kill zone, inflicting maximum damage on the maximum number of opponents, while keeping the defender clear of the statistically-traditional trajectories of return fire. By the rote mastery of this art, your firing efficiency will rise by no less than 120%. The difference of a 63% increased lethal proficiency makes the master of the Gun Katas an adversary not to be taken lightly."

A somewhat situational combo requiring 0rds and no EX followups. Damage is on par with (if not better than) many of Anonym's revolver-dependent and meterless combos but involves considerable spacing and may also invite the threat of jump-reflector opposition.
