AzuFight: Taisen Shiyo/Chiyo-chan

Chiyo

Introduction

Chiyo has skipped five grades to tenth grade (the first grade in Japanese high school) at the start of the series and is still at the top of the class. She is extremely smart and responsible for her age — for example, she was chosen by the other students to be the class representative. However, Chiyo-chan (as she is usually called) still has the naivete, desires, and fears of a child.

Overview

Playstyle

Chiyo is a rushdown with a huge projectile and an very fast air mobility.

Pick if you like	Avoid if you dislike
Airdash: Chiyo is the only character in the game with an airdash. Good neutral: she really doesn't have many problems getting in due to how fast she is and her good projectile.	Limited combos: Getting conversions into good damage is really hard with Chiyo. She has trouble converting into anything valuable for her off of basic starters. Stubby: All of Chiyo's normals and most of her specials are pretty low range.

Airdash: Chiyo is the only character in the game with an airdash. Double jump: EX Chiyo is the only character in the game with a double jump. Good neutral: she really doesn't have many problems getting in due to how fast she is. Area denial: spamming bombs covers a lot of space and makes it really hard for the opponent to move around. Flashy: EX Chiyo's 2C is jump cancelable and so are all of her air normals, allowing her to get some pretty cool combos.

Stubby: All of Chiyo's normals and most of her specials are pretty low range.
