[...] punishable with i4 low throws. So I have a suspicion that the frame data is stated incorrectly. Assuming that the move truly is -6 on block, it should be punishable with i5 low throws. But according to my testing, it is not punishable with i5 low throws, only i4 low throws.

Therefore, I believe that the frame data is stated incorrectly in the move details and that the true frame data of 2P is equal to ''-5 on block'', not ''-6 on block''.

Here's the thread where I explained this phenomenon in further detail (post #4): http://www.freestepdodge.com/threads/nyo-bug.5605/

If it frustrates you more, her BT2P is also, surprisingly unpunishable, even being -6 on block, from both standing and crouching throws. I noticed this a while back, it have yet to make any use of it other than saying that, in a sense, she's safe off of punishable moves.
More interesting than that, attacking will cause her to get thrown, but only standing throws.

So standing throws miss = Nyo blocks or attacks low following blocked BT2P or regular 2P.
Standing throws connect in all other situations.
Crouching throws connect = if she blocks or tries to attack low.
They whiff in all other circumstances.

Essentially she can select her safety after those moves, which, as far as I know at this given moment, is unique to those two moves.

And, to clarify, I'm not including moved that can transition into other things and select safety (Zack's 3P+K or 3P+K2), but rather her being unique in that there's no string variation, just the player choosing whatever after it connects.

i5 means that a move needs 5 startup frames before it becomes active. i stands for 'initial' or 'impact'. Basically it's the animation BEFORE the move hits.
A smaller number means a faster move (i.e. LESS startup frames). For example, an i5 move is faster than an i10 move.

It's quite tricky to explain. Basically a move consists of three types of frames:
- Startup frames = Amount of frames before the move becomes active. Less frames means that a move is faster. For example Kasumi is a very fast character so that means she has very little startup frames.
- Active frames = When the move actually hits. When you hear the BANG!, KAPOW! or WHOOSH! effect of a move.

- Recovery frames = The amount of frames it takes to get to neutral stance after the active frames are finished. Longer recovery is usually worse, but not always as move with a long recovery can still be safe if the block stun is long.
