Art of Fighting 2/Eiji Kisaragi
Special Moves
Kikouhou - 236A (20% Spirit)

- Eiji creates a crescent slash attack.
- This is Eiji's main anti-air.
Ryueijin - 28A (20% Spirit)

- Has lighting-fast startup and is Eiji's main anti-zoning tool.
Koppagiri - 646A (20% Spirit)
- Eiji rushes towards the opponent and performs a delayed slash.
- Not much use due to the delay of the slash after Eiji reaches the opponent.
Kisagari Ryuuken Kenkyaku - 214B (20% Spirit)
- Eiji delivers a series of kicks.
- Completely useless as none of the hits combo into each other.
Tenbakyaku - 16B (40% Spirit)
- Eiji takes to the air to deliever a series of kicks.
- Can work somewhat decently as an evasive tool, but the meter cost isn't worth it.

- Expensive, but high damage anti-zoning tool.

Overview
Eiji is a very weak character with poor special moves and decent normals. His main gameplan is to force mistakes from the opponent and punish them using his very limited toolkit. Unlike his appearances in KOF, especially in '95 and '98 UMFE, Eiji's special moves are completely terrible, with the only noteworthy ones being Kasumigiri (214A) and Ryueijin (28A). Even then, Kasumigiri is a far cry from its KOF glory. His supers are basic, run-of-the-mill AoF2 supers that will give you some mileage, especially considering he barely uses the meter he gets.
