WIN POSE: 
SCHOOL LIFE: Went to a different middle school than Asuka, but during
 kindergarten and elementary school they were always in the same class.
 Because she is isolated in a school where students seem to stand at a slant,
 Karina stood out.
PRIVATE LIFE: Karina's family of three consists of herself and her two
 parents: her father, an international pilot, and her mother, a former
 stewardess that now manages a boutique. Her father is tough, but cool and
 popular. The nature of his job often keeps him away from home. Her mother is
 a self-confident combination of wit and beauty. Karina is shocked at how her
 mother can keep such a tight hold on her father through all his time away
 and bring the family together. Both her parents don't have enough time at
 home; since elementary school, Karina has been doing much caretaking at the
 house. She admits her one and only best friend is her pet frog named Kero
 pyon. Ever since the summer of her first year of middle school, when Karina
 incubated and then hatched him, Karina has been walking around taking Kero
 pyon with her. Kero-pyon is the only one who eases her mind.

    together and press A.

    different screens of extra options.

QUICK RECOVER
  Before hitting the ground, tap u,u. Your character will spring up and flash
  a second. They are invincible for any attacks for a second.

100% SPECIALS
  This is your full Super meter. You can only perform one Super from it.

120% SPECIALS
  This is a maxed out Super meter. You can performs as many Supers as you
  want until the meter fades out.

SUPER LAUNCHERS
  For some characters, pressing C will make your character perform a Super
  Launcher. They perform a strong attack that knocks opponent into the air to
  set them up for an air combo. Each time you press C, your Super Meter drops
  a little, even when it's at 100%. It will not drop if it's in the 120%
  range. You can perform a Super Launcher if you don't have any Super Meter
  energy.

COMBO COUNTER
  By performing a move exactly when your opponent does, each hit cancels each
  other out. You can cancel some special moves with basic attacks, special
  moves with special moves, etc. 120% Specials can also be cancelled in this
  manner. Another mode on countering is to press the C button when you are
  blocking attacks. It will drain a little Super Meter, but can be done if
  you have none at all. For each attack that cancels each other out, you will
  hear a clashing sound.

POSITION SWITCH
  When blocking an opponent's attacks, press either A or B and you will dash
  to the other side of you opponent to counterattack. If you press R, you
  will Super Jump out of the attack.

COMBOS / CHAINS
  In this game, basically anything combos. There is no limit as to what you
  can combo. You are able to do a Light Attack, into a Strong Attack, then go
  back to a Light Attack again. That works for Special Moves also. Next, you
  can Super Cancel a regular attack into a Special Move or a 120% Special.
  Finally, some characters can combo off more than one of their 120%
  Specials, depending on the ones used. At certain times during a combo, the
  game will not let you combo/juggle your opponent any further and simply let
  them fall to the ground.
