Fun Fact: The Bayonetta franchise was never intended to have Japanese voice dubbing. Even the original Japanese release of the first game only had English voice acting. Series creator Hideki Kamiya believed Japanese VA's couldnt capture the personalities of the characters properly. Japanese dubbing was added to the games after Hideki Kamiya was suprisingly impressed with the VAs chosen for the Bloody Fate movie.

Thats why in the JP version of Bayo in SSB4 she has JP voice acting for her default Bayo2 costumes, but English for her Bayo1 costumes, to reference this fact.

It's Bayo-****ing-netta, she needs ALL the attention she can get and if she can't get naked, it's a good substitute
The dancing witch with guns on her heels that summons demons with her hair doesn't get enough attention?

Just remembered something I wanted to share with the rest of you.

When you activate witch time, pay attention to the umbran style clock hand. Witch time ends when the hand strikes 12 'o clock. Naturally, the more time you have, the longer it'll take, and vise versa if it's been used too much.

We can use this to know exactly when witch time will end for proper followups (such as setting up spikes).

I'll post this in the metagame thread as well.

I think this is partly due to the clock hand not functioning like that in the actual games. In the games, it's purely aesthetic.

Really? I was sure Witch Time usually stops when the clock hand makes a full revolution in the source games. It's just harder to see, because most times, the hand either disappears or becomes too transparent to see halfway through.

Can someone explain Bat Within to me? I know what it does and stuff, but AD-spamming Bayos always seem to break out of my strings faster than any other char. What frame does it activate on AD? Can anyone explain?

Oh and the only thing yall should know about my tier list is that diddy, yoshi, luigi, and olimar can die in a fire lol.

I'm not sure of the exact frame, but it feels like the very first few. The moment of collision with a hitbox at the start of a dodge will trigger it every time. As I said in an earlier post, it's best used against projectiles as the damage is usually minimal, even 0 on a few.

Kamiya is a reverse-weeaboo, and I love him for it.



& I need to practice bat within-ing projectiles. Will probably end up make or breaking a few matchups for her.
