Speaking of Fuwa/Fuwachin, I came across this two and a half hour "DOA Course" video with Fuwa and rabbit-daison (One of the top Jap Hitomi players) focusing on Hitomi and Kokoro. Its all in Japanese, but might be useful for some people.

I've mostly been playing Kokoro, my long time favorite DoA character, and can play decently. However, one thing I do...
ah. ok, it makes sense. Its a stunning low that allows the followup P to hit.
In which case, is there anything in Kokoro's new arsenal that can cover a similar role to the old 6P+K, P to go through guards?
Actually you're right. I just opened up my CE again.
