Introduction
Spam Sky of Fire A. That's it, that's the character.
Okay seriously, Hon Fu is just kind of okay. He does have some good buttons, decently damaging chains, and a relatively consistent pursuit attack but he doesn't particularly excel in either of those regards. Actually, he doesn't really excel at anything outside of having arguably the best DP in the game with his light Sky of Fire(623A). His Feint Cancel would actually be much better if his normals were better suited for it on offense, but its more likely use is to shave frames off his normals. His S-Power is fine but since each hit lands independently it's possible for it to just drop. And his P-Power is actual trash. There aren't many things Hon Fu can do that others can't do better, but if you really like Jackie Chan, you'll have a good time.

Excellent range for a far jab. Chains into 5A>C for decent damage but the latter hit can whiff at father ranges. Hitbox is pretty high so it's likely to whiff on smaller characters and those crouching (which is a common issue with Hon Fu).

Decent poke that doubles as a starter for his 5B>B>C chain, which ends in an overhead and can be input late for mixup shenanigans. That's assuming your opponent is respecting your offense, however. You can shave a frame off the recovery with an FC.

Decent range and damage, but the hitbox ends just before the tip of the nunchaku. Narrows much of his hitbox aside from his extended arm, making this a decent footsie tool.
