----V.H: Majin Buu----
Kid Buu (aka Little Buu, Final Buu, Majin Buu, etc.) is what was formed when
Gokuu and Vegita ripped out everyone he had absorbed, including the original Buu
(technically, Dai Kai-oh-Shin). With this Buu removed, Kid Buu got stronger and
stronger, having nothing holding him back. In the story mode, you must fight
against him with Gokuu, Vegita, and Fat Buu.
Move list:
Hold L (or R) + Y = Matamol Buu Attack (3-D attack). Buu turns into a glob of
goo and bounces into the background, then flies into the enemy. Funny to watch,
and as effective as everyone else's 3-D attacks. 8/10
Towards + Y = Sliding Punch. Buu slides forward with an extended punch. Quite
good at catching them off guard because it extends a little further than you'd
think. 7/10
(While in the air)Towards, Away, Down + Y = Buu Floater. In the air, Buu can
flatten himself and float endlessly, until you press a button. A nice way to
get out of the way of an attack. Talk about manuverability! 8/10 (Would be a
10/10, but it is useless in the flying areas.)
(While in the air)Towards, Down + Y = Horizontal Ki blasts. Buu, in mid-air,
can spit 3 Ki blasts straight ahead. That'll teach 'em to mess with him in the
air! This attack also keeps him slightly suspended, so he can use it dodge
attacks below. 8/10
(While in the air)Towards, Down + B = Diagonal Ki Blasts. Buu, in mid-air, can
spit 3 Ki blasts downwards at an angle. That'll teach 'em to stand in one spot
too long! This attack will also suspend him in the air, but since it is also
attacking, he not only dodges the attack but retaliates as well. 9/10
Down, Towards + Y = Whip Attack. Buu whips his head around, flicking his tassle
out. Catches 'em off guard nicely. 7/10
Away, Down, Towards + Y = Rolling Tackle (Buu's Tron Attack). Ok, that's
probably not what it's really called, but he flies across the screen, looking
like one of those disks from Tron. A little harder to pull off (I always seem
to do the tassle whip instead), and it's not that effective. 3/10
Down, Away + Y = Close Earth Shot. Buu sticks his leg into the ground and kicks
straight out of the ground a short distance away. At that distance, though,
shouldn't you be doing something like the tassle whip instead? 5/10
Down, Away + B = Medium Earth Shot. Buu sticks his leg into the ground and
kicks straight out of the ground some distance away. A good distance to work
with. 7/10
Down, Away + A = Far Earth Shot. Buu sticks his leg into the ground and kicks
straight out of the ground a good distance away. If you can get the distance
just right, then they hate you. 8/10
Towards, Away, Towards + A = Kantsu Energy Dan (Larger Ki blast). Buu throws a
larger Ki blast, just like Gokuu's and Cell's. This'll cancel regular Ki
blasts. 7/10
*Away, Down, Towards + A = Buu Burn. Buu's 45 degree attack is a 1-handed Ki
blast. Not much to say here, except it's good for incoming enemies... 7/10
**Down, Away, Towards + A = Power Ball. Buu's 3-level Ki blast is a large ball
he creates above his head, then throws. Not very fast, but if an enemy is
jumping at you, they'll smack into the ball above his head. 8/10
%Away, Towards, Down, Up + Y = Desperation Move: Explosive Putty Arm. Buu
picks them up, swings his arm around and around, and slams it into them so hard
that his arm actually comes off. Funny to watch...his arm crawls back and
reattaches itself. Has a good range of contact to work, too. 8/10
Overall:
Kid Buu is the undisputed master of the air. He can fly for long periods of
time, drop you as you're jumping, or drop you when you're on the ground. He can
pop up when you're on the ground, he can get in close and pound on you, and he
can look really wierd while doing all of that. He's a fun guy to play as, but
not as fun to watch as Gotenks and Mister Buu. Because of his extremely short
stature, he can duck under just about everything, making him all the more
frustrating to fight against. His range attacks can keep them at bay while he
charges up, and then he can wallop them with a kick from the ground, an aerial
assault, or a stretching attack. |
