| Manami is a speedy mobility-based character who excels at a hit-and-run playstyle focused on annoying her opponent to death. Her ability to pester and harass the opponent with fast, damaging special moves is also helped by her small, awkward hurtbox, which causes some characters' basic juggle combos to whiff against her. However, it's no exaggeration to say that her weaknesses lie in everything about her outside of that -- she has the lowest defense value in the game, her normals all have pitiful range, she has no invincible reversal, and her status as a mobility-based character is hindered by the fact that she cannot jump out of a forward dash. You'll have your work cut out for you as this character, but hey -- your weaknesses won't matter if they can't catch you, right? | | Manami is a speedy, mobility-based character who excels at a hit-and-run playstyle focused on annoying her opponent to death.

| | intro = | | | intro = [[File:avg2 manami mini.png|20px]] '''Manami''' is a mobile hit-and-run character who uses her small frame and quick movement to pester opponents with a "death by a thousand cuts" strategy. |
| | pros = | | | pros = |
| * Easily able to move around the screen and harass opponents with her low-profile dash and advancing special moves | | * '''Tricky Movement:''' With her low profile dash and plenty of funky advancing special moves, Manami has a pretty easy time bouncing all over the screen, pestering her opponent while also making herself difficult to catch. |
| * Small hurtbox makes it difficult for many characters to combo her | | * '''Short Queen:''' Manami's notably small frame gives her a little extra insurance against some pokes and juggle combos, since she can fall out of the former and go under the latter a bit more easily. |
| * Catgirl | | * '''Respectable Offense:''' On top of her {{Tooltip|text=Banzai Attack|hovertext=[4]6P}} giving her a very Blanka-esque mid range presence, Manami also has some fairly rewarding throws in her normal throw and {{Tooltip|text=Neko Chotto Ranbu|hovertext=63214KK}}, as well as a situationally unblockable {{Tooltip|text=Neko Rocket Punch|hovertext=236P}}. |
| | cons = | | | cons = |
| * Poor defense, thanks to zero reversals and the lowest defense value in the game | | * '''Abysmal Range:''' Manami's small stature works both for her and against her -- and boy does it work against her. "Stubby" doesn't even begin to describe the situation, with her neutral game being severely hampered by a set of normals so short that they're almost not even there. |
| * Normals are so short they're almost not even there
| | * '''Made of Paper:''' With the game's lowest defense rating and zero reversal options to speak of, Manami gets torn to shreds for making mistakes that other characters can more easily walk away from. |
| * Catgirl | | * '''Awkward Special Moves:''' While moves like {{Tooltip|text=Goro Goro Attack|hovertext=[4]6P}}, Banzai Attack and Neko Chotto Ranbu all put in work, the rest of Manami's special moves range from strange, like Neko Rocket Punch, to just downright bad, like {{Tooltip|text=Goro Goro Attack 2|hovertext=[4]6K}}, which severely limits the breadth of things she's capable of both in neutral and on offense. |

This can hit opponents both on its way out and on its way back, but in either case it is extremely unsafe on block. On top of that, as well as its limited range, the move also deals one blocked fireball's worth of damage to Manami, because she's clumsy and she keeps hitting herself in the face with her paw. Because it's not a particularly useful long-range tool, this mostly sees use as a way to convert combos into EX attacks.

Curiously, although the move is considered airborne from frame 1 (making it invincible to throws and causing an air reset when she's hit out of it), Goro Goro Attack is considered as a grounded attack on a system level, meaning it cannot be blocked int he air, and can also be super cancelled into grounded moves without any issue.

This super travels a set distance irrespective of where you are, so it's possible for this move to not make full contact with the opponent, causing you to lose out on a lot of damage. It also will not fully hit airborne opponents, also significantly decreasing the damage. Overall very hard to use, but it's good to aim for it when you can, since if it lands successfully, it is one of the most damaging supers in the game.

| = Strategy =
| |
| Manami wants to be as agile and difficult to catch as she possibly can, for two reasons: the first is that the range on her normals is catastrophically short, so there's not much point to standing around trying to play footsies. The second is that if she gets caught by the opponent, her low defense value means a single mistake can be fatal. To that end, Manami wants to spend most of her time harassing people in neutral with a combination of Goro Goro Attack and Banzai Attack to mess with the opponent's timing, as well as j.LK > j.HK chains for both approach and runaway. If she's able to establish offense up close, you mostly want to prioritise her highly rewarding normal throw and command throw. If Manami finds herself on the defense, she has to rely mostly on chicken blocking and guard cancels, since she has literally nothing else to help with her defense.
