Shiina Mayu (EFZ)

Introduction

Shiina Mayu (椎名 繭) is a small, agile character, and uses her animal-like abilities to fight. She is considered to be one of the highest tier characters in Eternal Fighter ZERO. Her special moves give her a huge amount of mobility and versatility. She can either escape with them, attack you at weird angles, or set you up for throws, which can lead to combos or advantages over the opponent. Mayu is well-suited to a pressuring play style.

Mayu is actually one of the heroines of ONE, a visual novel produced by Tactics in 1998. Mayu first met Kouhei soon after losing her only friend, her ferret Myu. She quickly becomes attached to Kouhei, but acts on instinct all of the time. Mayu becomes a problem child who starts to say the name of her ferret all the time. However, Kouhei believes that Mayu will eventually learn to cope with her loss. Although Myu died, Mayu's journey to adulthood started from that point. During ONE, Kouhei starts to "look after" Mayu before he realizes it, to at least prevent her from getting into trouble...

Stage: Behind the School (学校裏)

BGM: White as the snow (雪のように白く)

Character-Specific Notes

• Mayu is able to air jump once, and air dash/backstep once.
• Mayu's ground dash is actually a long leap off the ground. The length of the leap can be shortened by pressing back. Mayu can only dash-attack during a shortened leap.
• Mayu's neutral stance and crouch is the shortest in the entire game.
