The Dog's overhead. Used in conjunction with 2K, Zappa gets an unblockable setup, and with the right combination, he can reset back into it repeatedly in the corner. This is what will make Zappa's dog game terrifying, starting combos and ending them after 2D as well. Using 4DD late after a 4D or rebound can reposition the dog closer to the opponent as well. | The Dog's overhead.

Pre-patch, this move left the dog right in front of the opponent, but now it rebounds the dog back similarly to 6D. In order to reposition the dog near the opponent, you'll want to whiff a 6D late after the rebound, or go for an 8D, usually whiffing it if the opponent is already in hitstun. | Pre-patch, this move left the dog right in front of the opponent, but now it rebounds the dog back similarly to 6D.

Important move, as it brings the sword back to Zappa's position immediately. It's generally not a good move by itself, especially without meter, as it's terribly unsafe, moves really slowly, and its hitbox doesn't seem that great, but it may beat things you don't expect. It has an FRC that's only available if the move makes contact, and you can perform the followup as well. Avoid FRC'ing this move with the H button, as if you miss, you'll likely get the very unsafe followup instead. This move gives you one orb on hit. | Important move, as it brings the sword back to Zappa's position immediately.

Note that when you use this move, the speed of travel will compensate to cover the distance between Zappa and the sword. This means that if you use this move while the sword is close, Zappa will not move very far nor fast. However, used with the sword far away, Zappa will rocket forwards to what the sword's position was during the input.

Staggers opponent on ground CH (max 43F). Zappa has 28F recovery on hit or block, 13F recovery on whiff. FRC timing is 1~3F of recovery on hit or block. Can cancel into Followup from 12F of recovery onwards on hit or block. If the attack hits really late into the active frames, you cannot cancel this move into Followup. +1 Soul on hit. | Staggers opponent on ground CH (max 43F).

Overview
Zappa is one of the most unique characters among Guilty Gear's strange cast, possessed by a myriad of spirits that he utilizes to fight, although he's really just some poor sap of an exchange student from Australia.
Each of Zappa's summons gives him a different playstyle and set of tools to work with, from zoning, to spacing, to rushdown. Zappa's general strategy is to get a summon, play based on that summon's style, and gain orbs. Once Zappa gains 8 orbs, he can summon Raoh, inflicting lethal levels of damage for about 15 seconds! Zappa players will have to learn the ins and outs of each of his playstyles, resulting in Zappa having five times as many matchups as normal characters.
Strengths
- General - Lots of low profile moves, including dash. Variety of overheads. Excellent Backdash. FB and Overdrive can get Raoh quickly.
- Naked - Summon has high invincibility. 2H is versatile.
- Sword - Amazing Mixup potential (half-full screen overheads and lows). Decent damage output. Ranged normals. Full screen knockdown tools.
- Dog - Unblockable setups. Potentially infinite damage and pressure. Great cover and defensive options.
- Triplets - Great zoning options. Controls a ludicrous amount of space. Decent pressure.
- Raoh - Ludicrous damage. Excessive range and speed. Great cover and poking tools.
Weaknesses
- General - Overall poor Anti-air. Only reliable reversal costs meter. Requires excessive matchup knowledge.
- Naked - Terrible damage and range. Near worthless without a summon.
- Sword - Linger can screw up your combos. Extremely limited options if opponents get past sword.
- Dog - Higher execution requirements than other summons. Zappa loses knockdown tools in some matchups.
- Triplets - Slow moves. Poor damage. Random item drops can screw up your combos.
- Raoh - Very limited mixup. Zappa's poses make him vulnerable. Only lasts 15 seconds.

Dog Normals
- Listed frame data is for the Dog. Data listed in [ ] is for followup version of the move.
- Zappa's 5D, 2D, and j.D are replaced with the corresponding Dog Normals; Zappa himself does not attack.
- Dog is invincible while idle.
- If the dog idles for 300F, it enters sleep mode, 30F to wake up dog from sleep.

Sword Normals
- Sword normals will push the sword farther away from Zappa with each use.
- This keeps going until the sword is a little farther than half screen away.
- If Zappa is farther from the opponent than this distance, the sword will not advance laterally.
- On hit or block, despite the sword's position, Zappa is still pushed back.
- Doing nothing with the sword for about a second will make it return to his position.
