I used to watch The OC religiously when I was in 6th grade. My very first AIM account was called theocfrk11 rofl.

I can't see the red text very well on my itouch.

well there are 3 styles to each character

crescent (speed, most similar to mbac), half (simple), full (power, if you like GG then this style is good)

i know for F-V.Akiha, she has really good stage control and zoning plus a corner loop.

C-Akiha still has great rushdown and pretty solid, only her damage modifier was changed. her BnBs are slightly different from mbac. you also see a lot of H and F Akihas.

both akiha are really solid but F-V.Akiha is slightly better.

i never played as either arcs, but i see more of C-W.Arc

also F-moon has shorter BnBs, most of the times.

yes, currently 3 of the 4 S tiers are H

they are Kohaku, V.Sion, Shiki

the 4th is C-Mech

in the arcade version (vanilla ver), H-Akiha and H-Aoko were also top tier

too bad H-Aoko got nerfed badly

sorta. lol

the console port is ver.A. japan's arcade is ver.A also.

there are only like a few mbaa cabs in the us one in AI,, NY's chinatown, and TX's UFO being the vanilla ver. the community decided to play ver.A since that is the balancement used in the japanese arcade.

plus aoko was basically godly in vanilla ver.

kyuubi from MBread said:
The old Aoko in mbaa gains 180% meter in 1 full combo, has triple air jump, spammable power waves, unblockable beam set up that's quite hard to avoid, and not to mention the old system regen was insane. You also get nearly all her skill set with air dodge and parry. Not to mention the pretty sick damage from the full combos, charged 5C + 4C makes it untechable.
