Overview
"Hmph. Do your best to not get in my way..."
Backstory
Jin is one of the main characters of BlazBlue, younger brother of the main protagonist Ragna the Bloodedge, and the wielder of the Nox Nyctores weapon "Yukianesa." After Yuuki Terumi's attack on Jin and Ragna's childhood household which left them seperated, Jin was found and adopted by the prestigious Kisaragi family. As a teenager in the NOL Military Academy, Jin was popular and stoic, being seen as a model student by all. Jin is a very composed person that usually acts somewhat cold when interacting with others, but deep down is secretly competitive, ambitious, and yearns for emotional attachment. Though usually disinterested in others, he has opened himself up on occasion to become friends with former classmates at the Academy, holding a particular soft spot toward Tsubaki Yayoi, Jin's long-time childhood friend and currently his personal secretary. Now called the "Hero of Ikagura," Jin has become an esteemed major with his own unit, and is an exceptional soldier, commander and martial artist.
Playstyle
Jin is a very well-rounded rushdown character with a wide variety of tools to handle any situation and conquer the neutral game. His "Hishou-" and "Musou-" ranged options allow him to both poke at and approach his opponents comfortably, while giving him fantastic pressure when up close. Jin's normals and BnB combos also have very solid damage, with his Crash Assault being particularly fast and deceptive. Additionally, Jin has a great set of assists, while also being able to deal with 1v1's and 1v2's relatively comfortably, making him superb as both a Point and an Anchor. Overall, Jin has no outstanding weaknesses besides having slightly lower range on his normals when compared to fighters such as Ruby or Gordeau, but his projectile tools and decent speed generally make up for this trivial flaw.
Strengths/Weaknesses
Strengths | Weaknesses |
---|---|
|
|
Drive: Frostbite
Jin's drive used to have a system called a "Freeze Count" that limited how many times his drive attacks could encase his opponents in ice. In BBTAG, Frostbite no longer has a freeze count limiter and thus moves that can freeze can do so an unlimited amount of times. In exchange, only a few moves inflict a true frozen state. All other Drive attacks now only have guaranteed hitstun that ignores basic hitstun scaling but is still susceptible to the state of the combo timer. For efficiency's sake, we will call the attacks with the classic freeze effect "Frost End" attacks (named after the overdrive version of Jin's Drive from the mainline BB games) and all other drive using attacks will be referred to by the drive's original name, "Frostbite".
Frost End (True Freeze):
- Throw
- 5AAAA
- Touga Hyojin (Resonance Blaze only)
- Hiyoku Getsumei (All versions, first hit only)
- Yukikaze (All versions)
- Rengoku Hyouya
Frostbite (Extra Hitstun):
- 5AA
- 5BB
- j.C
- Hishouken
- Hishougeki
- Hishousetsu
- Musou Tousshugeki (First hit only)
- Hizansen (Both normal and EX)
Normal Moves
4A
4A | Template:AttackDataHeader-BBTag | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Old 5A. Jin's fastest button and thus great at disrupting enemy pressure. Can be used as an anti-air thanks to the high placement of its hitbox but this also makes vulnerable to low-profiling. After three consecutive 4As, any further A inputs will result in 5A. It is to be noted that after a jump in, 4a can be used to hit crouch once so it can be useful for mixups. |

---|---|---|---|---|---|
Old Crush Trigger. Visually deceptive overhead, since Jin crouches and attacks from below instead of above. Generally not used if an assist is available for setting up jump-ins or picking up opponents after a tiger-kneed Hizangeki. Since he lacks any other grounded overheads and tiger-kneed EX Hizangeki can only lead into a combo if it is done in the corner, Jin must use this universal overhead if he wants to mix-up opponents while he is own his own. That being said, please be wary to throw this out if they have meter to super as it will hurt. |
2A
2A | Template:AttackDataHeader-BBTag | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Old 2B. Only safe low and also his fastest, making this attack vital in Jin's mix-up game. Can be chained into his 5A and back. Note that doing so will prevent Jin from using 5AA, 5AAA, or 5AAAA in that string. Do keep in mind the startup frames, so if you want to mash out of something it is recommended to use 5A or 5B if they are farther away. |
2B
2B | Template:AttackDataHeader-BBTag | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Old 2C. Jin's dedicated anti-air and his out right best due to its humongous hitbox and ability to be made safe via jump cancels. Keep in mind that its horizontal range isn't the greatest, that this move is very unsafe on whiff, and it isn't air unblockable so don't throw out this move without a plan. |
2C

Template:AttackDataHeader-BBTag
| ||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Old 3C. Sword sweep with amazing range that can also low profile many attacks. Can be difficult to use in combos due to Jin lacking any moves that plummet the opponent while also being cancelable. Generally used for long range mix-ups into A Musou Senshouzan or Musou Tousshugeki for either a combo or to be safe on block. At the end of highly scaled combos, this move can only combo into either Rehhyou or a super. |

Template:AttackDataHeader-BBTag

Old j.2C. Jin slashes vertically. Used often as Jin's most consistent cross-up tool and as an air combo part. Also pretty good for throw-baiting thanks to its long vertical reach. |
j.C

---|---|---|---|---|---|
Old j.D. Jin surrounds himself with an ice sculpture of a snowflake. Used at the end of every air combo thanks to its high damage and long hitstun which guarantees a follow-up such as Hizangeki or Hiyoku Getsumei. Also another decent cross-up tool but one that lacks any meaningful follow-ups. |
Universal Moves

Ground Throw 5B+C |

Rehhyou
Rehhyou 5A+D |
Template:AttackDataHeader-BBTag
| ||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Jin slashes directly above himself. Fully invincible reversal that is also his only air unblockable move, making a good anti-air, even more so if he has assist available for a full combo conversion. However, compared to the rest of the cast this reversal is on the slightly slower side when it comes to start-up time (Shoryuken-esque reversals are usually frame 10 and all counter reversals are frame 1), has hilariously low minimum damage, and has very poor horizontal range. Therefore any reversals with this attack are more likely to be outspaced, safe-jumped, or blocked without the ability to burst the inevitable punish combo. Use Touga Hyojin instead whenever possible as it it significantly more effective. Be aware that this move doesn't have enough guaranteed hitstun to get a knockdown if it hits a high enough airborne opponent at the end of a scaled combo, making oki off this move somewhat inconsistent. |
Skills

Musou Senshouzan 214A/B |
Template:AttackDataHeader-BBTag |

Hizansen
Hizansen j.214A |
Template:AttackDataHeader-BBTag | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Jin slashes diagonally downward. Should never be used to end combos as Hizangeki is simply a better combo ender. This attack is meant for mixing-up opponents via a tiger knee in neutral or buffered from a jump-cancel in blockstrings. Requires an assist to convert off of but leads into better damage than 5C. |
Hizangeki
Hizangeki j.214B |
Template:AttackDataHeader-BBTag
| ||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Jin slashes twice, once horizontally and once diagonally downward. This is his best meterless air combo ender and as most of Jin's combos result in a launch, nearly every combo will end with this attack. Can lead into safe-jump oki if it is used low to the ground while the opponent is slightly above Jin. |
Extra Skills

EX Hizangeki
EX Hizangeki j.214C |
Template:AttackDataHeader-BBTag
| ||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Meter using version of Hizangeki that has better damage and frame data. Used primarily for its ability to start solo instant overhead combos in the corner by tiger kneeing this attack and using 2A to pick up the opponent. Outside of that situation, its better to use the regular version to conserve meter. |
Partner Skills
5P
5P Musou Senshouzan |
Template:AttackDataHeader-BBTag
| ||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Jin's best assist for basic combo extensions thanks to its speed and range. Somewhat poor at locking down opponents as the second hit only occurs on hit. When using this assist for combos, note that to avoid whiffing attacks against downed opponents, either use moves that can reach prone opponents or time the assist so that the point character can hit the opponent before Jin slams them into the ground. |
6P
6P Hishougeki |
Template:AttackDataHeader-BBTag | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|
One of the best assists in the game because of how much pressure it applies to your opponent and how it can setup mix-ups when used alongside Active Switch. This assist should be used as frequently as possible. Can be used for all the same set-ups as Jin's stand-alone version. Due to the startup and the speed it travels, you are going to want to call 6P when the point character is able to cover it and in certain assist matchups you will need to Cross Combo to prevent Jin from getting smacked. |
4P
4P Fubuki |
Template:AttackDataHeader-BBTag
| ||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Jin slashes diagonally upward. This is his anti-air assist and it is one of the best in the game due to its incredibly high speed and range. Note that this attacks lacks head invulnerability, meaning it can trade or be beaten by aerial attacks. Cosmetically, this attack is used during Jin's 5C follow-up. |
Distortion Skills
Touga Hyojin
Touga Hyojin 236B+C |
Template:AttackDataHeader-BBTag
| ||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Jin slashes his sword and releases a wave of ice. Fantastic reversal super that is surprisingly safe on block, even being plus in some cases while doing a fair amount of chip damage. Has massive push-back on hit or block which is good for keeping the opponent at a distance. Can also punish zoning as the projectile has unlimited hits and will consume all regular projectiles while ignoring others. May result in a trade as this move has very few frames of invulnerability. In Resonance Blaze, this move deals significantly more chip damage and gains a follow-up attack that greatly increases the final damage and provides safe-jump oki even if the initial projectile only hit once. Higher RB levels means more chip damage and additional meter and passive meter regeneration with which to use this move. It's only downsides are its projectile property making it susceptible to projectile invincible moves and its low minimum damage, most notably on the final hit of the follow-up with its abysmally low .044% minimum damage scaling. |
Hiyoku Getsumei
Hiyoku Getsumei 214B+C (Air OK) |
Template:AttackDataHeader-BBTag |

Distortion Skill Duo
Yukikaze P during partner's distortion drive |
Template:AttackDataHeader-BBTag
| ||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Jin's old counter super turned assist super. Jin performs a dashing slash with his sword, freezing the opponent. After sheathing his blade, the opponent thaws out and slumps to the floor. This super hits full screen horizontally and reaches about as high vertically as Jin's 2B. Can catch both the opponent and their assist but note that once Jin traps them in ice any remaining hits in the point character's super will whiff. |
Astral Heat
Rengoku Hyouya 222B+C |
Template:AttackDataHeader-BBTag | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Jin stabs the ground and covers it with frost, trapping the opponent in a continually growing column of ice. After draining all their strength, Jin sheaths his sword as the ice shatters. Very easy to combo into and has a huge reward on hit so end combos with it whenever possible. Can be used as a very high risk, very high reward reversal. Can also punish ground-based zoning or raw supers from full screen. |
