Introduction

P-1 Climax Nickname: "Captain Ressentiment!"
Persona: Jiraiya
Arcana: The Magican
Backstory:

  • Yosuke Hanamura, affectionately nicknamed "Brosuke", is the first party member Yu Narukami bonds with during his time in Inaba. Due his father's manager position at the Junes superstore, Yosuke was forced to move from the big city to "the boonies," leaving him resenting his feelings of boredom and isolation. After accepting his shadow, he tries his best to be the best 'partner' he can be. In the P-1 Climax, he is a speedy fighter with a pair of kunai and his persona Jiraiya, master of the wind.

Strengths/Weaknesses

Strengths Weaknesses
  • Unmatched speed, mobility, and aerial combat abilities.
  • Combos now end in hard knockdown, making it easier to maintain offensive momentum.
  • Exceptional neutral game, arguably the best in the entire game.
  • Gliding creates unreactable cross-ups and allows him to bait (and punish) opponents safely.
  • Capable of inflicting Confusion via Tentarafoo and Poison with SB kunai and throws.
  • Improved Sukukaja grants him a tremendous boost in damage.
  • Has one of, if not the best, DPs in the game.
  • Low HP.
  • Mostly a close range fighter.
  • Loses knockdown combo routes and access to Supers when Persona broken.


Air Actions

Thanks to Jiraiya's speed and aerodynamic abilities, Yosuke is able to chain multiple specials while in the air. He can string these together during combos, to mix up his aerial approach or bait anti-airs. After performing certain ground specials or air specials, Yosuke can preform some specials with a simple command, using 4 or 6 and the desired action button (A / B for Moonsault or C / D for Flying Flash Cut)
The moves that count as air actions are:
Skill Name Number of Times Simple Command
Moonsault 3 Times (4 in Sukukaja) 4 or 6 A/B
Crescent Slash
Mirage Slash Once
Flying Flash Cut Once 4 or 6 C/D
Flying Kunai Once


Gliding / Fastfall

Yosuke has the ability to Glide or Fastfall in the air due to a kara cancel (cancelling the start up on 1 move into another) with jAB into Air Turn (A+C) during an airdash. Gliding will allow Yosuke to keep his air dash momentum and fall at steeper angle. It also helps to glide backwards (Jump > A+C to turn backwards > Airdash > Glide) to help get jD out safely or just to escape back to neutral. Gliding helps Yosuke move around the screen faster than any character (He's fast even without it). It allows him to block while air dashing with no delay, come in at angles that are hard for certain characters to 2B (Chie, Akihiko, Mitsuru, etc), and to navigate projectiles or Naoto's traps.
So the notation would be (Find whatever suits you, there’s a ton of different methods):
Jump > 66jAB~A+C

Yosuke taunts the opponent. If Yosuke is hit, he then proceeds to trip the opponent, causing knockdown. While the attack can not be cancelled, it does leave Yosuke in a great position for a follow-up pressure. Will counter any attack including overheads, lows, throws, command grabs and unblockables. Has a large number of active frames and a deceptively good aerial hitbox, making it difficult to safe-jump, and it will blow up most pressure strings, but resist the urge to spam Yosuke's DP.

Yosuke dashes toward the opponent kicking multiple times then launching himself into the air off of their body. Is able to be canceled into aerial specials after the launch. A and B version travel the same distance while SB version will go slightly further.

  • A Version - Yosuke will backflip off the opponent, not switching sides
  • B Version - Yosuke will backlfip off the opponent with forward momemtum, switching sides.

SB 70, 40x11 HLA 12 To Ground 35 Total - Projectile
  • Can be used as a follow up from any other air actions, but is considered an "ender".
  • Sukukaja Buff: Yosuke can do any air action after throwing the kunai.

Yosuke launches backwards into the air throwing 6 kunais down onto his opponent. Unlike P4A, the kunai do not lift the opponent into the air, but rather just knock the opponent towards the ground, making it a good combo ender or keep-away tool. A version kunai are thrown in a 70° angle, and B Version is thrown at a 55° angle while popping Yosuke up a little higher. SB version kunai are thrown in a 55° angle and inflict poison, but Yosuke can no longer do any other air action after the move (While not in Sukukaja).

Yosuke charges up with the power of his persona. A meter will appear above his SP Gauge displaying how much time he has left in the install.

  • A new 5A that travels forward and a new autocombo.
  • Increased Movement Speed (Ground Dash is now invisible).
  • Access to dash/backdash cancels on specific moves.
  • An extra air special action.
