Gameplay

Miyako Arima is a returning character to Melty Blood Type Lumina and a member of the base roster. She's a high-speed rushdown character that excels at close combat.

Miyako wants nothing more than to get up close and personal with her opponent, and has a number of ways to do so. She has naturally high movement speed, and sports a variety of normal and special moves that help her cover ground in a short amount of time, such as her 5C, 2C, Elbow Strike (236X), the B version of Double Kick (623X), Arrow Fist (214X), and Thousand Year Smash (j.214X). Once she gets in, opponents have to contend with a bewildering variety of fast normals and rebeats that make up the hallmark of her pressure, in addition to threats from her special moves: Quake Stomp (22X) allows her to rebuy her turn or go for a surprise low depending on what version is used, while 236X and 214X still retain their usefulness for pressure or mixup setups (particularly 236B, if used sparingly for crossup shenanigans), and a well-spaced 623B will allow her to sneak in grounded overheads.

The main tradeoff for all of these amazing in-fighting options, though, is that Miyako's ability to contest space control is still relatively weak in spite of her movement speed. She has no projectiles, and most of her options for trying to ignore space control cost a lot of resources in order to get them going. Against characters that outrange her, Miyako has to defend well and measure the risks of certain moves in order to keep herself from getting caught out in a bad situation.

Avoid if you dislike

Strong Strike/Throw: Miyako can combo off her ground throw, letting her do extra damage, build meter, and loop back into her okizeme. This incentivizes her opponents to mash on defense, creating more opportunities for Miyako to open them up using her great frame data on her normals. Breakneck Neutral: Miyako's specials and fast ground movement allow her to close in on, and stick to her opponent. Her air normals are fast and active, especially her j.B, which can cross up at very ambiguous angles. All of this combined means her main strategy is to canonball herself at her opponent. Brutal Pressure, Looping Resets: With overhead, low, cross up, armored, rebeat and plus-frame options out of her block strings, Miyako is a character who will catch opponents merely waiting for "their turn" or throwing out risky shields, knock them down, and do it all over again. Surprise Round-Closing Potential: Having grounded unblockable set-ups, fast TK overheads, decent OTG damage, and excellent meter dumps allows Miyako to close out rounds by spending a little extra meter in her combos. Strong Defensive Options: With a strong meterless DP, her metered DP being a combo starter, and multiple good options out of Moon Drive activation, Miyako can often take her own turn back and can capitalize well off scramble situations. Great Corner Carry: Miyako's 236X~A has great corner carry, and being able to side-swap by using the B version lets her reach the corner off nearly any hit, enabling her strongest pressure situations easily.

Stubby Normals: Having such short-range means Miyako often has to resort to using more committal special moves for both abare and punishing unsafe options, as certain moves designed to be unsafe on block can push Miyako out of range of her normals. This stubbiness also leads to her having a hard time contesting characters with strong midrange or good projectiles. Meter Reliant: Miyako's meterless combos have both poor damage and don't gain much meter. Confirming off specials is only possible for her with Moon Drive or 214C, making her issues gaining meter worse.

Story & Profile

Young girl training to be a bajiquan master
The eldest daughter of the Arima branch family, which took Shiki in as a child. Currently in fifth grade, she sees herself as Shiki's other sister. Her feelings are easy to see as she always wears her heart on her sleeve.

She unabashedly adores her kind, quiet older "brother",
but whenever he is near, she becomes so nervous she can barely speak.
This continued for many years until Shiki was suddenly called back to the Tohno family, Miyako did not take the news well, but a chance meeting with a mysterious being will change her fate forever.

She learned bajiquan by oberseving others in her family's dojo, though it now sits unused. Although she was nowhere near the skill level of a true martial artist, her abilities quickly flourish in the ensuing battles.
Her destructive powers make it hard to believe she is only 11 years old.

• Very slow. Does not combo from a non-counterhit 2C against a grounded opponent.
• Leaves a large gap when used in a blockstring, making it liable to get interrupted or shielded on reaction (both high and low shield work).
• The opponent recovers from blockstun in the air. The different frame advantage values are for whether the opponent performs an airborne or grounded action.

• Evasive cartwheel. Has invincibility frames on startup, but dash startup prevents it from being used immediately in all situations.
• Minimum dash time is 5 frames (i.e. the first frame of the cartwheel replaces the 6th frame of dash).
• Somewhat useful for getting through projectiles without jumping, but it's too slow and obvious to use in most neutral situations.
• Can bait wakeup options with it, since it will roll clean through most moon skills, heat activation, and reversals.
• There are probably better things you can do to call out those options, though.

• Mostly used as a combo tool: though it can hit people IADing at you, it's not otherwise reliable as an anti-air despite how it looks.
• Unusually for launchers, it's only -5 on block, making it useful as a pressure tool.
• Whiffs if opponent is in OTG state.

• Miyako dashes forward with an elbow strike. Travels about half of round start distance.
• Unsafe on block if not cancelled into a followup. However, the spacing is outside the range of most character's A buttons, requiring them to commit to a slower button to punish that may be vulnerable to a frame trap followup, or to being dodged entirely by the cartwheel followup.

• Similar animation to 236A, but with afterimages on it. If this move is performed close to the opponent, Miyako will sideswitch during the initial step and crossup her opponent.
• The crossup version has 3 additional frames of startup where Miyako pauses behind the opponent. These frames are skipped if the opponent is in a launch state.
• Doesn't crossup in the corner.
• If done in neutral or after a blockstring ending in an A or B button, the opponent can block this move by holding 4 relative to Miyako's original position. If done after a C normal is blocked, they have to block on the correct side.
• Mashing will defeat this move if done out of a blockstring.

• An enhanced version of 236X that immediately goes into the A followup on hit or whiff. The first step has longer range than 236A normally does.
• Can be useful if you see a chance to whiff punish someone, since the speed and range is very good for Miyako.
• You have to spend resources or have them in the corner to confirm.
• Gets a ton of clash frames when in moon drive.
• This move beats Hisui's infamous 6BC! If both players enter moon drive simultaneously and press 6BC, this will win.
• Minus on block, but not punishable.

• Miyako dashes towards her opponent, leaving afterimages behind her, and launches into a series of kicks.
• Similar to her dash animation, but can be differentiated by having a white flash and afterimages instead of blue sparkles.
• The first hit can be blocked and shielded low. The remaining hits must be blocked high.
• 24f overhead if the first hit whiffs. 30f overhead if the first hit is blocked due to the added hitstop.

• The super flash makes it difficult to use as a way to counter air approaches, since opponents can easily shield or maneuver out of the way on reaction.

• An enhanced, 3-hit version of 623X with a bit more horizontal range.
• Jump cancellable on block or hit.
• Gets significant clash frames while in Moon Drive, but tends to fail against other Moon Skills with clash frames for some reason. Still very useful against other buttons, or even on block.
• On block, or if it clashes but doesn't score a hit, this move usually leaves Miyako in a favorable situation; she'll often be right above of her opponent, with all her air options remaining.

• Using this in a pressure string can beat mashing, especially if your opponent is trying to mash out on your other mix options.

• Same animation as the A/B versions, but Miyako will add a second palm strike after the first if the move makes contact. Even on block the second hit knocks the opponent extremely far away.
• This version also has armor on it, but the armor does not kick in immediately, so it can't be used as a reversal against true meaties.
• Also, the armor is defeated by other ex moves, so be careful about using this against an enemy with enough gauge to react with their own.
• The opponent recovers from blockstun in the air. The different frame advantage values are for whether the opponent performs an airborne or grounded action.

• Can mix your opponent, in tandem with 623b and 236b.
• Slower pressure reset for when your opponent is respecting your buttons. Can set up an unblockable 22[C].

• Fullscreen low. Launches the opponent much higher than 22B if it hits. Often a really strong whiff-punishing tool and can be used to close out rounds against risky backdashes. It's reactable if your opponent isn't doing anything.

• Increases damage slightly and also causes the hitbox to become unblockable.
• Besides knowledge-checking newbies, it can be made truly unblockable in a number of ways. Meaty 22A/B is the easiest and most common option. Meaty stomp is so plus that if they block it, the unblockable hit will hit them before they can shield. Representing this allows Miyako to force her opponent to shield on wake-up.

• An enhanced version of 22X that mixes 22A's startup with 22B's reach. Hits low and is plus on block.
• Completely misses people who are airborne, just like the regular version.
• Using this in a blockstring can catch people trying to mash moon drive from any range, since they have to stand.
• It gains clash frames when in moon drive. Somehow, it beats Hisui's moon drive 6BC as well.
• This move does basically everything except anti air and is ignorant as hell. If your opponent likes to approach on the ground, this should show them why that's a bad idea.

• An enhanced version of j.236X. It wallslams similarly to 236B/C with longer reach and a bit more damage than 236B.
• Unlike the regular variants, it is jump cancellable on whiff. The version can be used as a way to maneuver into position in relative safety, particularly against characters with strong zoning tools such as Vlov and Ciel.
• Think of it more like a super air dash than a real attack.

• This version's main use is as a way to turn a 623a or A shield counter hit into real damage.

• An enhanced version of j.214X. It adds a second hit to the attack when Miyako hits the ground.
• It's not an overhead, unlike the regular variants.
• However, the second hit can be cancelled into ex moves or arc drive to get a confirm.
