Hakumen's Exceed Accel is so damn good, especially because of his drive. Because he has to use meter to execute even his most basic combos, having a meterless super to close his overdrive combos is incredible useful. The starting attack itself is both fast and has a fairly large hitbox, as well as being easy to combo into. Even better, the attack actually uses his drive's mechanics (unlike Ragna, whose EA does not drain health or Terumi, whose EA does not grant him heat) as Hakumen's magatama gauge will continue to rise throughout the animation (including the freeze frames), which is longer than those of most of the cast, guaranteeing at least one additional magatama after it's use in any combo. On top of all of this, it's a decent reversal as well (thanks to the fact that it is safe on block). Man I really wish every character's EA was as useful as Hakumen's. ;_;
So they improved his corner carry, gave him higher average damage with a very low cost count, and his max damage is slightly nerfed doing about 1k-2k less damage overall. He's no longer a one trick pony ;_;
Hakumen is the MAN of this game. The man since CT. His voice is so much

5C forces crouch.
[Justice intensifies]
never played hakumen but looks like u can finally do anime combos on normal confirms instead of C counterhits lol

+BlackYakuzu94 He's finally on par with most of the cast IMO. Still no Valk or Jin though.
I mean he wasn't exactly bad in CPEX lol, he was hovering around in Mid tier for the most part all throughout.
2C launches on normal hit. I never thought I'd see the day TvT
So we get consistent damage over spike damage? I don't mind that, but our opponents will lol.
I wasn't scared of him in CPEX, only CSE.
But now...
Is tsubaki a worthless move now? I have yet to see it in use in this installment.
hakumen definitely my main in bbtag!!!!!
So, Enma is only 1 star now?
I think this guy's name is Nikki not Nishiki
+scandiumtrioxide thanks, fixed!
that 240p tho.....
