Some advice for anji’s with the Potemkin matchup as a Pot main. No matter how tempting it is, do NOT round start twirl, you will die. Pot mains snort round start Kara Buster like a drug and you will lose a fat amount of health for it
I think they made Anji so weak so all the new fighting game players won’t feel like they can’t push buttons. That’s why Gio, who was made for beginners for strive, has so many plus frames and can just mash buttons. Also arent Anji and Baiken a thing?
Nah Im pretty sure anji and baiken are just friends, though I think anji is still searching for her. Anyways, I really dont like how some characters just get doodooass privilege for no reason, game’s fairly balanced but sol does not need a plus 2 fs
I remembered that May is in her late-20 in Xrd (yes, despite her appearance, and there is a story scene with Chipp revealed it as a comedy). So I assume Strive May is about 30 years old.
There's a pretty good long video by Klaige explaining the weaknesses of Fuujin in a vacuum. To sum it up, Fuujin is more of a knowledge check than it is a proper mixup. If the opponent knows the counters for every option, Anji might as well only go for the low S followup because EVERY other option just results in a loss for Anji. Even not using the followups is bad because there's a clear tell when the followups can't be used (it's when the green swirls disappear) and Fuujin is -16 on block. For those who say the P followup leaves Anji +4 block, Anji's buttons like 5K, 2D, or 5S are either two slow to enforce pressure or don't reach far enough without proper spacing of Fuujin. And the K followup (hop)? It leaves Anji at -12 at best. The opponent can just cS for a full combo or throw if they can't react that quickly and win every time.
If they r ready for fujin follow ups that mean your momentum isn’t enough, you are not conditioning your opponent properly BUT!!! I will admit fujin is weak here, really weak, it gets stronger when opponent is conditioned Anji in this game, weak or strong it is up to user but also i gonna have to admit that he is really weak in this game cuz It requires you to play him 500 iq to win opponent that has same skill level but they r playing good characters
Anji is a beefcake when it comes to his guts, anji is all about taking advantage of peoples bad habits. And you can instantly make people develop bad habits because his health bar is so THICC so as long as you're willing to change it up each time, you can do it (said as an anji player)
ayyy, saw myself there. the 2:37 mark. Just gotta keep getting better with whomever you're trying trying to play and stick with your guns (Despite the fact that I play Axl a bit better than my Chipp...... Accidental DP inputs are my curse)
I actually know a reset combo for mewtwo from Pokken Tournament. It's jYX (air jab, dive kick), 5YY(double jab), 4AY (command grab, throws into the air, starts one frame late.), then go into 2XX - 2AAA auto or slashes. Doesn't combo with burst attack.
Some can just punish f.S. with super, try setting Gio to super and do f.S. There's absolutely nothing anji can do if he accidentally f.S. at any point in time. Leo can also punish f.S. with his DP unless Anji spins. Anji mains literally hope that the f.S. is removed or moved to a command normal to avoid accidentally using it ever.
Honestly I'm playing him kinda this way. As a counterhit and reset MONSTER. Yeah the overhead is slow but if you learn to condition and bait, his ability to fish counters and slap people is so much fun
Guard point is bugged and is not punishing jumping attacks, since the enemy is airborne, anji can't throw, but the enemy will be able to throw before anji can use any normal. Im just hoping that's a bug and not a feature.
I would like to point out that there is a string to make dps whiff. I have extensively tested this and even leo's flash kick will whiff if done correctly: C.s > 5h > fuujin > sweep This is something that *must* be spaced however and you *cannot* leave a gap anywhere in this string or they'll be able to dp. The trick is to make sure not to start C.s directly on top of your opponent. If your opponent does dp you can get a full punish from the whiff.

Really tells you how fun the character is when desipite all his weaknesses he's a blast to play
Just so you know, people can actually rc out of a triggered spin to save them lol
This is one of the main things I wish they would change since you can get punished for guessing correctly if your opponent has meter
Yeah, it’s crazy how little I actually learned watching this.
Sol stole all of anji's plus frames

Strive takes place, like, 3 weeks after Xrd so she's still 20s
Age in guilty gear is a strange thing at least for most of the female characters. Baiken and Milia are the only one’s actually showing their age
Japanese are Built Different in Guilty Gear
XD
Shitsu is slower than the pc version of strive booting up
Anji Mito: 2:09
Yuyuko Saigyouji: *Deadly Butterfly "Everlasting Nap in Dreamland"*
Also small correction: Anji was introduced in Guilty Gear X my guy.
Man Daisuke really robbed this man blind didn't he?
The funny British man is back. Time to open last episodes notebook.

I saw in the old game he could come down with a button like koh after fan needles too.... Man....

And then Johnny made it to Strive
XD
...and Anji got a new move!
The idea of Johnny as an overprotective dad is quite funny.
-Be anji
-make hard read on dummy sol
-His fs recovery is so low you can only punish with grab
-He dash RCs out while I grab
-COUNTER
-Die
I’m a anji main that is stuck on floor 10 that constantly complains about him thank you very much.

Hop is also negative so if your opponent has fast enough reflexes they can always throw you before you can throw them. :(
My friend really needed this, thanks a bunch!
13:03 OMG!!! that damage is seriously busted. Anji might get a nerf if pro players learn this tech
Anji being gimped pisses me off
He didn't need such a raw deal
Such an amazing use for the Sonic unleashed music around 1:50
love the anji and leo stuff in the beginning
The best anji mito guide is the one that tells you to pick sol instead
I always wondered why anji was so bad in this game. thank you for imparting daisuke's vision unto the masses.
Great vid, loved the humor and creativity
7:36 is that his Strive Taunt?
Cool moves
XD
Fuck this, I give up learning this character, absolutely nothing works for me with him and I already lost three floors.

Crossing my fingers for the new patch this month.
Man after 1.09 this gonna need an update
12:47 Emerald weapon collab?

Hey what's the song playing when explains fujin? Great vid btw got to floor 8 with it
I swear this wasn’t a guide it was just “why you shouldn’t play Anji”
2:26 small thing but misspelled aether
Honestly I'm playing him kinda this way.
As a counterhit and reset MONSTER.
Yeah the overhead is slow but if you learn to condition and bait, his ability to fish counters and slap people is so much fun
This video is amazing but I really wanted to learn sometime
great video
keep going u're a legend !
1:31
6P to 3K to 3H
AKA
U block or I SOU
Or do the Flash Kick Super at the end...
That was a lot of damage.
Hey, Leo didn’t take them all. Anji has Baiken
WHEN YOU ASKED TO GUESS THE FRAME DATA IN +R I RANDOMLY GUESSED 17 AND IT WAS WHAWHWASDJHSALKFJH
Let us all take a minute to thank whatever force convinced Arcsys to make this guide obsolete
Edit: Nevermind

Greatest Anji Mito Guide -> Spends the whole guide saying how underpowered Anji is
2:22 is this a supermech callout?
yes, but i am not on floor 7 :)
What song is that at 1:38? It sounds familiar
Sounds like the Sonic Unleashed title theme
i dont even have strive, i dont know why i am watching this
6:24 duley?
Oh yeah, if you trade the hs gg super, you get a combo because the fan doesn't disappear on hit
Just like before?!
*NEAT*
You can roman cancel parry super into a combo
little did anji know. he woukd get the best waifu
baiken
Dont worry anji you get best girl baiken
I like Anji he has funny spin
Very good
I would like to point out that there is a string to make dps whiff. I have extensively tested this and even leo's flash kick will whiff if done correctly:
C.s > 5h > fuujin > sweep
This is something that *must* be spaced however and you *cannot* leave a gap anywhere in this string or they'll be able to dp.
The trick is to make sure not to start C.s directly on top of your opponent. If your opponent does dp you can get a full punish from the whiff.
Fuujin is not a rekka. It’s a move with follow ups
isn't that what a rekka is?
A rekka is just a mutli-input attack. Fuujin is a rekka.
0:25 Doesn't Anji have Baiken?
She's not in the game.
Yet...
The reason I play Anji is becouse i suck at this tipe of games and he has easy combos
Make a Discord.
Funny video but ngl.. Pretty clickbait. Not like this is an April 1st video either.
Oh shit it's among us enjoyer
BATTLE CRY
tbh how much you talk about how low tier anji is dates this video so anyone watches it realizes "ah, so this is pre patch ggst, got it."
