Overview
Hakumen is one of the Six Heroes who wields the Nox Nyctores, Ookami. He is a playable character in Calamity Trigger and Continuum Shift.
Health: 12,000
Play-style: Balanced (with a higher focus on defense), Footies, Situational (Meter-Dependent)
Movement Options: 1 Double Jump/Airdash, Hop-Dash, Command Dash
Drive: Zanshin
Zanshin projects a shield-like energy barrier that, when triggered by an opponent's attack, will negate said attack and follow-up with an unblockable, invincible counter-attack. If a physical attack triggers Zanshin, the opponent is frozen in place making the follow-up inescapable. Also, the guardpoint protects and triggers on either sides of Hakumen, allowing him to catch any cross-ups. This gives Hakumen an effective counter to use against many of his opponent's options. In addition, many of Hakumen's normals cancel into his Drive. This makes Zanshin not only a great defensive tool, but an offensive one as well, countering attacks that may exploit holes in Hakumen's blockstrings.
Overdrive: Kishin
Kishin greatly increases the magatama recharge rate in addition to allowing Hakumen to special cancel his D moves.
Pros/Strengths:
- High health
- Good normals
- High damage with meter
- Can cancel specials into each other
- Can reset pressure in many places because of how his normals chain
- Invincible counter stops a lot of projectile oki
- Fast backdash
Cons/Weaknesses:
- Poor mobility
- Low damage without meter
- Gaps in almost all his strings because of his normals late chaining
- No invincibility on backdash

- Must be barriered when in the air
- Hits Hakumen, and Tager crouching
Standard standing jab. It whiffs on crouching opponents, so beware using it too much or being too predictable with it. Due to the 5-frame start-up and its safety, it's a useful anti-air.
It can be delayed-cancelled into 5B and gatlings into 3C, any D move, and throw.

- Does not hit everyone crouching from far away
- Hakumen's hitbox moves far back during start up
One of Hakumen's best normals for its amazing range, usefulness as a starting move, and it being safe on block. With proper spacing, it can beat out a lot of approaches.
It can be delayed-cancelled into 5A and 2A. It gatlings into any D move.

|
- 13F-15F can cut projectiles
This is the best normal move Hakumen has to start combos with for maximum damage. This makes it a great move to reset into as well. It is a somewhat decent anti-air and can be linked into itself on an anti-air CH.
5C does not gatling into another normal move. However, it can be special-cancelled, usually into Renka or Gurren.

This is arguably the farthest-reaching 2A of the cast, making it a great footsie tool. Hakumen's 2A is also quick and has advantage on block, giving the player an effective way to beat out poorly spaced attacks on the ground.
It can be delayed-cancelled into itself, 2B, 5A, and 5B. It gatlings into 6A, 3C, any D move, and throw.

- Air tight blockstring when late chaining into 5A
With its' superior range, quick start-up, this is one of Hakumen's best moves for footsies. Many ground approaches and attacks can be beat outright by the reach of the hitbox on this move. This is also has a 8-frame startup for a low, making it a great move to keep your opponent honest.
It can be delayed-cancelled into 2A and 5A. It gatlings into any D move.

10-18GP(P)

|
- 10-18F can cut projectiles
A good anti-air due to its' vertical reach, which also makes it an ideal way to punish blocked/whiffed aerial Bursts. It's also great at covering a lot of space at once and has a large window in which it will cut projectiles. However, it is a bit slow and very punishable on whiff.
If blocked on or low to the ground, you can cancel into Gurren to make it safe.
2C does not gatling into any other normal move.

- Has head invincibility from 6F-18F
What was once a relative useless move by itself in CS1 & 2, it is now Head-attribute invulnerable for quite a while. As such, it is one of Hakumen's best anti-airs in Chrono Phantasma.
6A gatlings into 6B and any of Hakumen's D moves.

- move > move > special >> special NOTE: this is only a base. your combos do not have to follow this format.
- Requirements: -- (ex: 50 heat, Overdrive, crouching opponent. if no requirements, leave as is)
- Damage: ----, Heat Gain: --
- + move = Damage: ----, Heat Gain: -- NOTE: if a necessary combo is very similar to a previous one, you can add options like this.
- Notes: Write notes for the combo if necessary.
