Kid Buu
DBFZ Kid Buu Portrait.png
Play-style Mix-up, Pressure, Footsies
Team Role Any

Overview

"Hoooooh! Uhouhouhooooo!"
Lore:Small, diminutive, and insane beyond all reason, "Kid" Buu represents Majin Buu's "pure" form before absorbing powerful fighters. Without any sense of morality (or any sense at all), this form represents Buu not necessarily at his strongest, but at his most dangerous, driven by nothing other than the desire to destroy. Thankfully, the universe would be spared his wrath by Goku, who destroyed him with a Spirit Bomb.

Playstyle

 Kid Buu  Kid Buu is a terror to the fight that puts his opponents on block and forces them to take a mix-up.

Pros
Cons
  • Small body makes him difficult to hit compared to other more normal-sized characters.
  • Amazing neutral control, with medium normals covering most of the screen, as well as having an aerial beam.
  • Probably the best and most infallible mix-up game; 2S is a command jump that enables him to airdash after, and Arm Ball possesses the highest blockstun in the game while also allowing Kid Buu to move during it.
  • Has an anti-air throw in Mystic Arm Swing that replaces 2H's use as anti-air option.
  • Due to the nature of his normals, Kid Buu has the ability to do multiple overhead normals on a standing opponent outside of sparking.
  • Mystic Ball is a good mix-up tool plus combo extender, and becomes ridiculous for mix-ups during corner blockstrings when paired with an assist.
  • Since Assist A is Arm Ball, it has the highest blockstun in the game for a regular assist, unlocking the potential for the best mix-ups solely based on how much oki time it gives.
  • Low damage overall. He is reliant on spending resources to extend damage output.
  • The aforementioned 2H has a pathetic horizontal hitbox, almost zero point in using the move over Mystic Arm Swing outside of scaling.
  • Ironically, Planet Burst does not have very good oki off the Hard Knockdown.



Normal Moves

5L
5L

Flex those 6 frames
DBFZ KidBuu 5LL.png
You can't escape
DBFZ KidBuu 5LLL.png
Template:AttackDataHeader-DBFZ
5L
  • It's a jab

Pretty far range for a jab. It's a little more minus than most jabs, but it has high range to make up for it.

5LL
  • Moves Kid Buu forwards
  • Medium button in disguise
5LLL
  • After a vanish, this L autocombo can be used to continue your combo similarly to Goku Black's L autocombo.

There's really not much more to be said about this button. It's only situationally useful in combos, and it has very limited cancel options on block.

5M
5M
DBFZ KidBuu 5M-1.png

DBFZ KidBuu 5M-2.png
Wow! Kid Buu actually using his head for once!
Template:AttackDataHeader-DBFZ
  • Pulls him forward about halfscreen.
  • Second hit ground bounces on airborne opponents.

This is Kid Buu's primary anti-reflect blockstring tool. It pulls him forward far enough to completely negate the effects of reflect, and it is also one of his most damaging combo starters.

5H
5H
DBFZ KidBuu 5H.png
Just like all the others
Template:AttackDataHeader-DBFZ
  • Mostly useful for the optimal corner combos or blockstring filler.
  • Moves very far forwards.
  • Smash wallbounce can sometimes be linked off of.
5S
5S
DBFZ KidBuu 5S.png

Template:AttackDataHeader-DBFZ
  • Fires a single Ki Blast across the screen.
  • Pressing S again will make him throw his 2S afterwards.
  • Good for pressure resets.
2L
2L
DBFZ KidBuu 2L.png
Watch yo shins
Template:AttackDataHeader-DBFZ
  • Kid Buu's primary mixup tool.
  • Less range than 5L.
  • Doesn't directly combos into 2M. The viable combo route is 2L > 5LL > 2M or 2L > 1M.
2M
2M
DBFZ KidBuu 2M.png
U N G A
Template:AttackDataHeader-DBFZ
  • 2M and 3M have initial proration. 1M doesn't.
  • Each version has some tracking, but will only hit in a certain range.
  • 1M is the fastest one, hits from directly in front of Buu to almost half screen.
  • 2M, 3M have relatively the same speed, 2M tracks from Buu to just over half screen while 3M tracks from half screen to about 3/4 of the screen.
  • All versions pull the opponent in on block or hit.
  • On hit, 2M and its variations can combo into themselves up to 3 times, with each version can only be used once.
    • The order of moves used is 3M > 2M > 1M, trying to input a move that has already been used and Kid Buu will perform the next available one in line.
  • Using 2 or more stomps makes the move special-cancellable only.
2H
2H

Kid Buu at the Andrew W.K concert.
Template:AttackDataHeader-DBFZ
  • Very bad horizontal hitbox, basically have to be touching the opponent if they are grounded.
  • Vertical hitbox is pretty good, hits above Buu rather than in front.

This move looks a little better than it really is. It is a grounded 2H, so you can cancel it into specials, but there really aren't any good options.

2S
2S
DBFZ KidBuu 2S.png
pew pew
Template:AttackDataHeader-DBFZ
  • Jumps up and throws a Ki blast in an upward arc.
  • At close range, will throw the Ki blast downward.
  • 5SS will also execute this attack.
  • Recovery is airdash cancelable
  • Has stored landing recovery
6M
6M The people's gummy elbow. Template:AttackDataHeader-DBFZ
  • Universal overhead.
  • Another mixup tool for a character brimming with them.
j.L
j.L
DBFZ KidBuu jL.png
Template:AttackDataHeader-DBFZ
  • Hits crouchers more often than it's animation would suggest

Because of it's speed and how j.M messes with your air momentum, this is usually the other part of your high-low mixups.

j.M
j.M Ya'll mind if I SWOOSE on in? Template:AttackDataHeader-DBFZ
  • Pulls him forward about halfscreen. An excellent air-to-air attack.
  • First hit has a normal launch angle, second hit knocks the opponent down at a 60 degree angle.
  • The first hit can reverse Gatling into j.L, the second can only chain into Heavies/Ki blasts
j.H
j.H
DBFZ KidBuu jH.png
The OTHER people's gummy elbow.
Template:AttackDataHeader-DBFZ
  • [] is on Smash hit.
  • Useful in mixups after j.M.
  • Sometimes whiffs after j.M if it's used too close to the ground.
j.S

DBFZ KidBuu jS.png

Template:AttackDataHeader-DBFZ
  • Halts Kid Buu's air momentum, useful for crossups.
  • Has enough hitstun to combo into any of Kid Buu's air special moves or supers.
j.2H

DBFZ KidBuu j2H.png
Hello my baby, hello my honey
Template:AttackDataHeader-DBFZ
  • Carries a lot of momentum.
  • If smash hasn't been used, by delaying the super dash, Buu can switch sides with this move.
  • Useful in non-Smash combos due to it's jump cancel properties.

Special Moves

Mystic Ball Attack

Mystic Arm Swing
214L/M/H
DBFZ KidBuu MysticArmSwing.png
Get yoinked right out of the sky!
Template:AttackDataHeader-DBFZ
L
  • Immune to air attacks.
  • Useful as an anti-air because you know 2H ain't doing squat.
  • Results in a sliding knockdown.
  • Combos from 5LLL and Stomps.
M
  • Immune to air attacks.
  • Results in a ground bounce that can be comboed after.
  • Too slow to combo into.
H
  • Immune to air attacks.
  • Results in a ground bounce that can be comboed after.

Candy Beam
Candy Beam
236S

Neutral BAD
Template:AttackDataHeader-DBFZ
  • Teleports to the opponent's position on hit, allowing you to easily combo into your Level 1 or Level 3 Super.
  • Heals 400 blue health on Smash hit.
  • Kid Buu is stuck until the beam hits something or the other side of the screen, not great for zoning.
Kamehameha
Kamehameha
j.236S
DBFZ KidBuu Kamehameha.png
Neutral GOOD
Template:AttackDataHeader-DBFZ
  • Using a Tiger Knee motion (2369) will allow you to use this move while close to the ground.

A standard Kamehameha. Because it's air only, it's a little easier for opponents to duck under it.

Arm Ball
Arm Ball
214S
DBFZ KidBuu Arm Ball.png
DBFZ KidBuu Arm Ball2.png
Template:AttackDataHeader-DBFZ
  • On hit or block, holds the opponent in place for a ridiculous amount of time.
  • 5H > 214S when covered by an assist is your go-to blockstring extender.

Z Assists

Assist A

Aah yes. The enabler.
Template:AttackDataHeader-DBFZ
  • Good for pressure and lockdown.

It has a good amount of startup but if you cover the startup with your point character doing a blockstring or another assist, Kid Buu's Arm Ball assist is very good for pressure because it'll lockdown the opponent for an extended period of time. This both frees up your point character to go for high/low mixups and makes converting opening an opponent up with a mixup into a full combo easier.

Assist B
Mystic Ball Attack
Assist B
DBFZ KidBuu MysticBallAttack.png
Gogeta's spin2win but down
Template:AttackDataHeader-DBFZ

30-32 frames of blockstun ranging on how far the assist is if both hits connect on block. 20 frames if only the second hit connects.

Assist C

  • Minimum damage: 90, 35*17, 100*11 (785)
  • Fires a volley of beams into the air that fall down after a delay.
  • At close range will pull the opponent up into the air and drop them down right next to Buu.
    • 5 beams fall in front and 5 in the back, these will never hit the opponent if they were caught during the liftoff.
    • 1 extra beam (the second to fall) tracks the opponent.
  • Immediate DHC (before the attack itself starts) or delay DHC (once the opponent is knocked back to the ground) is necissary for horizontal supers

Template:AttackDataHeader-DBFZ
  • Minimum damage: 805
  • Buu travels down to the ground before curving up, starting and ending in the air.
