Well, that's kind of an off question for the "Casual" thread since it's really anything but. Still, I'll give you the basic rundown.

The game runs at 60 FPS, meaning there are 60 frames per second. As such, frames are used to measure time. So an action that takes 60 frames would take 1 full second. An action that is 30 frames would take half a second and an action that is 120 frames would takes two seconds, etc.

Frame data is usually displayed like this:
13 (2) 19

The first number represents the "initial" frames, or the amount of frames required before the move becomes "active." You will see initial frames often referred to simply as "iframes," such as "i13."
The second number is the "active" frames, or the number of frames that the move is actually working. In our example above, the move would take 13 frames before it would become "active" and could actually hit someone. It would become active on the first active frame (the 14th frame, because it requires all 13 initial frames and becomes active on the first active frame) where is remains able to hit someone for two frames.
The third number represent the "recovery" frames, or the number of frames after the active frames that the move is required to do before the player is allowed to perform a new action.

Then you have hit properties. For example,

Block -9 | NH -5 | CH Cr(30-22)

So, Block: if the move was blocked, you will be immobilized for 9 whole frames where your opponent is not. So they can now perform slower moves and still beat out your faster options. To calculate this, just use simple arithmetic by adding 9 to the initial frames of any action you would consider performing.
NH: This is the amount of frames you receive if the move connects on NH. at -5, you would be immobilized for 5 frames that your opponent isn't. Same principle as the block.
CH: These are the frames you'd be granted on Counter Hit. You would get +30 frames where you can input things while your opponent is stuck in stun (unless they slow escape, which reduces this time down to only 22 frames).

edit: looks like I got ninja'd by @werewolfgold
Don't worry, I appreciate your thorough explanation as well :)

Jesus Christ. I seriously want to watch a stream of you screen-sharing your PC as you go through all of these directories, demonstrate the organization of your Selena Gomez GIFs.

I'm not even kidding. I think it would be both interesting and entertaining.
lol

I don't really know how to do that but if anyone wanted to walk me through it, I wouldn't mind.

Brad is an alcoholic due to his fighting style. It has nothing to do with relationships.

What made him alcoholic? Why he started to drink ?

That guy has an history . he drunk for some reasons behind

(ok, TN need a fighter with strange moves list and thought a drunken hobo could be a good addition in fighting style. I don't deny this technical point of view)

I was wondering why is this guy destroying himself drunk dead and why is he harassing young girls. I think that the more obvious reason is some deceiption. (love affair ? a son or a friend he lost?)

Wasn't he gonna rape Kokoro in DOA4?

Rape i'm not sure because i don't know what really happenned.
But i have read that he offered a drink to kokoro. That's not really good way to seduce kokoro i reckon, but i have seen that behaviour a lot in night club XD.

Though i like the tag throw between brad and kokoro , one of the best imo

Brad came up behind her and grabbed her shoulder, asking if she wanted to go for a drink. Kokoro told him to buzz off.

GET READY! FIGHT!

Now, what Brad was about to do to Ayane, however... That took it a level beyond...

Helena's attitude is more elegant, Rachel just has sense of fashion and knows how to dress up to look like this. But the thing is that she might be like Helena (I think they could even become friends). We've only seen her hunting fiends so we can't really tell how she interacts with normal people in normal life. This is one of the biggest reasons why I can't wait for DOA6 Story Mode.
Yeah Rachel is very sophisticated and has one of the best selection of costumes. In Warriors Orochi Rachel is very intimidating at first but warms up to her ally's in order to take down the Nanjun Demon troops.
The only thing I dont like is how flirty she gets around Ryu, like pretty much every female in the NG series has a crush on him. I don't blame her but still, she can do better.
