Additions and Corrections for the Weekly Famitsu Translations
=============================================================

Again I give credit to Shuntaro Eguchi who detailed the below
translations. 


Lion
====

His VF2 dodges u/f+E, u/b+E.  These dodges are special according to the
magazine.  They take the d+PK as an example that connects, when Kage tries
to counter with an elbow the normal dodge of E or d+E will not work and
Lion get's hit.  The u/f+E and u/b+E is the choice here, for Lion will
dodge from harms way.  It is a ackward concept, but I think the Lion
players out there perhaps BigCat can enlighten us on this. 

In addition to it's ablity ot dodge out of deadlock positions, the two
special dodges can be CANCELLED!  Yeah.. to cancel them you just press E
again.  (ie) u/f+E, E to cancel the dodge. 


Aoi
===

There is a tidbit for Aoi players is that she has a trick like Akira's
Knee in VF2.  That is even when she had her back turned she can still
connect a move without turning around.  A la... Akira's knee escape from
bodychecks and SgPm after a suprise exchange in VF2. 

THe way it goes is like this.  d+PE -> D+P, the second part of this combo
would connnect if ONLY the opponent dashes in (f,f).  Well, as the
magazine states, this is a useless trick unlike Akira's Knee in VF2. 

Oh, another note for Aoi players is, all those followups for characters
that have a throw which switch side like Akira's Suprise Exchange which
are detailed in the translations...  Well, don't forget Aoi has back
reversals!


Kage
====

His P+K move can avoid high punches if excuted at the same time and
moveover if it connects as a MC a throw is guaranteed! 

Sarah
=====

There was a section I metioned about dodging her b,f+PG.  Well that wasn't
true at all.  The section is actually a counter throw section and if you
escape Sarah's PG or b,f+PG throws, you can PG side throw her back as a
guarantee move. 


I'll make these revisions to my archives at
