That bear hug looks painful
"Promise me, you won't tell anyone" Honoka General Discussion

I would too.
I see someone's been learning my art of a thousand spoilers technique.Who wants to give Honoka a hug?
... I do.
He's learning the way of the spoiler XD
That said... The "Honoka" hug seems to provide frame advantage after the fact... (you'll see it within the trailer)... then the mix ups that take place, coupled with all of those stances and strikes...
(TBH I DO want to give Honoka a hug though).

She probably lacks power and range
236P...???!!! (I am waiting to get my hands on the character myself rather than watching the videos just to retain an element of surprise when DOA5LR comes out... like opening a present).
Now I know it's decent whiff punisher but that makes me wonder if TN is intentionally trying to... No.
It would be even crazier if she had things like Mila's 3K+H for example. Another thing is having some of those "borrowed" moves go into the other stances.
Example:
Zack's Ducking PP into Bokuho... Bokuho 6P into... another stance (after pressing control stick or pad towards a certain direction to go into another stance after Bokuho 6P).
OR
Bokuho and then straight into Zack's Ducking into.... SS/Back dash...

But jan's kick can be sidestepped or ducked
Honoka's version of the Dragon Kick needs to hit MID and track in ALL directions (it needs to hit BEHIND her as well and hit opponents that are floored). It also needs to beat out wake up kicks and be a combo starter on CH... maintaining an unblockable AND a unholdable status.

Doesn't look like too much frame advantage, so it'll probably be like Hitomi's and Bass' 6T. I don't recall seeing too many tracking moves in that command training video, so it might be kind of mediocre.

And I said it in the DOA Group on facebook and say it here... she will play like Lei Fei. She even has tools to defend against spacing opponents. The only thing she probably don't have at the moment is a 9 frame jab and a high punch parry from Dokuritsu stance.

It's a personal PSD I made and play around with frequently in edits. This is what it looks likes loool...
I also use a plugin to smooth the picture out, and sharpen it to my tastes~

I have to wonder... what made them give her Ein's 7P over the 46P, 7P isn't used to much outside of wall pressure maybe Hono's version is actually useable?

I really liked Lei Fei and was kinda discouraged from playing him because of all the stances he has, so I'm really hoping she's a little easier at least.

Characters in this game have a bunch of useless moves. Honoka having a few isn't anything out of the ordinary.

I hope what we've seen isn't her entire movelist. I actually really hope they give Honoka Mila's feint P+K6P ( At least I think that's the input. ) I'd love to use that as a combo ender.
I wonder what else she has though. The command training video kind of cuts out before the entire set is finished.

Is that the machine gun blow? Salad would look adorable using that move, but as far as I'm aware she doesn't even have Mila's takedown feint stance. Then again maybe she can use it out of like Bokuho or something. She uses some of Rig's moves in Brad Wong's stance, after all.

Yeah she doesn't, but I feel they could implement it from Zack's duck stance pretty easily.
