Special Moves

D,DF,F+P- Hadoken - Her projectile. Not as potent as Ryu or Ken's, but can be used somewhat for zoning, depending on the opponent. Can be used to negate projectiles. Not recommended to outzone Shotos. Can be charged if you hold the punch button. EX Version hits twice.

F,D,DF+P- Shouoken- Her Dragon Punch. Good to use in combos, or buffered with her c.MK. Can FADC out of for mixups and if blocked. EX Version has invincibility and can be FADC'd out of if blocked.

D,DB,B+K- Shunpukyaku- Her Hurricane Kick. The LK, HK, and EX versions are recommended. LK can lead to links. HK should be used if you don't want to use meter, but doing so gives up the options to create resets, as opposed to the EX Version.

F,D,DF+K- Sakura Otoshi- Not a recommended move but can be used to go over projectiles. EX Version homes in and is recommended.

Super Combo

QCBx2+K- Haru Ichiban- Hits low and does good damage, but shouldn't be used unless it will win the match or put the match heavily in your favor. Doing so uses all EX meter needed for her EX Shunpu mixups.

Ultra Combos

I. QCBx2+KKK-Haru Ranman- Not the recommended Ultra, but does net a fair amount of damage. Hits low and can be used after an EX Shunpu launch. Dash forward in open space to land it, but you don't have to in the corner.

II. QCFx2+PPP/KKK Shinku Hadoken- Does not net as much damage, but is much easier to land and is recommended. Use the PPP for the standing version, or KKK for air version. After an EX Shunpu, immediately input the air version.
