[edit] Quotes

  • "Whoa! I won? Cool!"
  • "Simplice, simplice... I could've sleepwalked through that."
  • "My recipe for victory? 40% youth and 60% ability."
  • "How precious. You thought you had a chance."
  • "What do you think about that? My style is simply redoubtable!"
  • "That's the extent of your strength? What a Namby-Pamby."

[edit] Special Moves

  • Violent Crescent - Buntaro flips into the air with a flying kick. This move can also be done while dashing.
  • Bird of Prey - Buntaro will rocket down to the ground with a kick when this move is done from the air.
  • Sharp Talon - This move can be followed after the Bird of Prey attack, which hit the opponent with another, faster, rocketing kick.
  • Ground Talon - Buntaro will slide along the ground after the Bird of Prey attack for another extra hit.
  • Mach Kick - Buntaro blazes forward with a powerful kick.
  • Self Confidence - Buntaro stands and taunts the opponent. If he is hit during this animation, he will counterattack. It will not counter low attacks.
  • Explosive Manly Energy - Buntaro stomps hard on the ground to build up energy, and can be done an infinite number of times, though three is the maximum amount of power he can store. This allows for the Mach Kick and Self-Confidence moves to be powered up and inflict more hits or do more damage, using up a level of power each time.
  • Sakuretsu Dankonnyuukon - Buntaro knocks the opponent into the air with a Violent Crescent, then smashes his foe into the ground with a kick, finishing with a powerful stomp. (Stress Shot)
