SNK Heroines: Tag Team Frenzy/Nakoruru

Normals

Notable normals: j.L, j.H - These normals are notable for Nakoruru because unlike almost everyone else in the cast, Nakoruru’s jumping L is the move that will groundbounce an airborne opponent, while her jumping H is what you’d use to keep a juggled opponent up a bit longer. Don’t get mixed up when you bring her in!

Special Moves

5S - Amube Yatoro

• Nakoruru sends out a bird projectile that goes straight ahead. A decently sized projectile with good speed. 40 damage. SP cost: 1 and ½ bars.

Without Spirit:

EX Item:

• This version’s faster than the norm, both in movement, and in how quickly it comes out. This one’s also got some extra oomph to it, as it’ll eat weaker projectiles and keep right on going, despite it being one hit like the normal bird. 40 damage.

2S - Rera Mutsube

• Nakoruru goes up with a rising strike that is oddly accompanied with a massive bird graphic. Not much to say here. It pretty much serves as an anti-air special move. The usual applies in that you don’t want to whiff this or have it blocked, because you’ll be left open, and as such, you can’t do much with it outside of use it to follow up on a couple juggles. 90 damage. SP cost: 1 bar.

Without Spirit:

EX Item:

• The EX version of this move is much better. 3 hits, and it recovers quickly enough that you can actually follow up on it in most given situations you can hit it in. This actually has some brief startup invincibility to it. 140 damage.

6S - Annu Mutsube

• Nakoruru slides along the ground toward her opponent blade first. Contrary to what the move looks like, you can actually connect with it multiple times in a combo, and provided you’re not just doing it recklessly (meaning you’re using proper spacing, or at LEAST covering yourself with an item), it actually has pretty good recovery. 80 damage. SP cost: 1 bar.

Without Spirit:

EX Item:

• This one’s 3 hits, as opposed to the normal version’s one. Due to how Nako keeps forward momentum, though, if you’re close enough to hit it at all, you’ll only have so many way you can follow up on it if it hits, compared to the normal version. 120 damage

4S - Kamui Rimuse

• This move’s a weird one. Despite the way it visually looks when Nako spins to strike you with the cloth, the area it affects is smaller than it looks. You have to be fairly close for it to hit, and you won’t recover all that quickly, either. It CAN reflect projectiles, though, and if it hits the opponent, it sends them into the wall, into a crumple stun. Probably the move that’ll get the least use, but it’s there. 80 damage. SP cost: 1 bar.

Without Spirit:

EX Item:

• The EX variant of this comes out a bit faster, and recovers a bit faster, but doesn’t seem to have any added properties beyond those and heightened damage. 100 damage.
