=Mamizou Futatsuiwa/RicePigeon's version= Armed with a band of tanuki to do her bidding, Mamizou takes a page out of Persona 4 Arena'', only with her army of tanuki playing the role of her Persona. Their gameplan: to keep the opponent at bay, while Mamizou herself rushes in for the assault. However, once Mamizou's Persona cards... err... "leaves" are wasted, her tanuki army will decide they've had enough punishment and desert their leader in the field of battle for some time.''

Gameplay


Mamizou is technically a six-button character, but plays like a standard three-button character, using the extra buttons for shortcut;, when used combined with or  acts as a shortcut for the character's   and   dash commands. is used as a shortcut for +, while is used as a shortcut for, used in the Level 3 Hypers. At the beginning of the match, Mamizou must select from one of two mutually-exclusive Level 3 Hypers;.

Mamizou is an offensive zoning character focusing on space control. Borrowing from her mechanic in Hopeless Masquerade and Urban Legend in Limbo, both of which inspired by the Persona mechanic from Persona 4 Arena, all of Mamizou's Specials, with the exception of Animal Lute Priest, are directly tied with the 4 leaves that Mamizou begins the match with; if Mamizou loses all 4 leaves, she will be unable to further use any Specials, aside from Animal Lute Priest, once she has lost all leaves, at which point Mamizou will automatically regenerate her leaves after a short time; Youkai Amikiri Transformation and Utsusemi Jizo Transformation both expend leaves if Mamizou herself is hit, while Youkai Tsurube Transformation and Youkai Karakasa Transformation only expend a leaf if the projectile is hit; leaves will only be spent under these conditions, not when the Special is executed. Youkai Tsurube Transformation is an incredibly useful tool for both extending and starting combos due to causing a wallbounce, and also allowing Mamizou to recover quickly while the projectile is still on screen, while Animal Lute Priest and Youkai Karakasa Transformation are useful for both zoning and applying offensive pressure on an opponent.

Mamizou is not without her flaws; once all 4 of her leaves are spent, she is rendered unable to use 4 out of her 5 Specials; a problem that is only further complicated by the fact that Mamizou has no way to recharge her leaves until after all of them have been used. While Youkai Tsurube Transformation is incredibly useful for its zoning properties and wallbounce, it is unique among projectiles in that it can be cancelled out by melee attacks, so throwing them out without discretion can easily lead to Mamizou wasting her leaves. Utsusemi Jizo Tranformation also expends a leaf for each time Mamizou is hit while still staying in an armored state, so a multi-hit Special or Hyper can easily waste all of Mamizou's leaves if punished.

General
"You're still not good enough."

"Let's leave it at that for today."

"'Let's leave it at that for today' is something you say when you win, not when running away, you know?"

"The way I speak is a habit of mine. I don't believe I'm particularly old."

"I once had enough power to hold sway over a third of Japan's tanuki, but perhaps that's a thing of the past, now."

"Er, hmm, I suppose that will do."
