---Game Options:
After selecting your character you will be given the opportunity to assign "Ability Points" to your character. The number of abilities points available is determined by the difficulty you have set the game to. The ability points can be assigned to the following options:
Punch - increases the damage your basic punches do,
Kick - increases the damage your basic kicks do,
Throwing - increases the damage your throws do,
Defense - decreases the amount of damage you take from blocked attacks,
Life Meter - increases your life bar,
Kawaii / Cuteness - increases the chances of your character posing and taunting during the fight,
Special Attacks - increases the damage you special moves do,
MAX! Special Attacks - increases the damage your MAX Move does.
Once you have set you ability points you won't be able to change them until you select a new character. Each computer controlled character has a different set of ability scores as well.
You will also be given a choice between "Manual" mode (green text) or "Auto" mode (red text) in a 1 player game. The only difference between the two modes is the way to perform special moves and MAX moves. In "Manual" mode you have to perform the attacks using the commands listed in the move section below, but in "Auto" mode you can only perform special moves and MAX moves by holding one of the L or R buttons and hitting one of the attack buttons:
L1 = first special move listed for each character
L2 = second special move listed for each character
R1 = third special move listed for each character (not in use for Outer Senshi characters)
R2+ HP or HK = MAX Move listed for each character
For example, to perform Super Sailor Moon's Moon Tiara Action in "Auto" mode you need only to hold L1 and press any button (punch or kick) instead of performing QCF+P. The strength of the attack button pressed determines the strength of the attack the same way it would in "Manual" mode. To perform a MAX Move you must hold R2 and press either strong attack button.
---Other Things You Need to Know:
To perform a MAX Power Move, your character's life bar must be very low or the game timer must be at 19 seconds or less.
Throws are UNBLOCKABLE. They can still be escaped so that you take less damage and don't fall helplessly to the ground.
In a 1 player game you can only select from the Inner Senshi (Moon, Mercury, Mars, Jupiter, Venus, Chibimoon), but in a 2 player game you may choose from any of the 10 Senshi.
Most special moves and MAX Power Moves will cause your opponent to take a little bit of damage if they block.
When two projectiles meet they cancel each other. The button used to throw a projectile doesn't matter when projectiles hit each other; a projectile thrown with QCF+WP will cancel a projectile thrown with QCF+HP. MAX Moves that create projectiles will also cancel special move projectiles and continue to travel across the screen. Some other special moves and MAX Moves will cancel projectiles.
The strength of the button used to attack or to initiate a special move will determine the amount of damage the attack will do, the speed of the attack, the amount of recovery time from performing the attack, and the distance the attack travels. The stronger the button the more damage the attack will do and so on. A weak punch does little damage, is very quick, recovers instantly, and has little range, whereas a hard punch does much more damage, is very slow, takes a long while to recover, and has a long range. The same is true for a projectile thrown with a QCF+WP or QCF+HP.
