PC-98 keys and Windows-era keys were pretty much fused after a recent CRT. So now both of Yuuka's keys are the same. I am not sure exactly how those things would affect a thread like this but this means that Yuuka could one-shot BH2 Anna if given the chance. Not that EBF5 is any different, she also gets one shot by low multi Yuuka. But let's discuss if Anna could avoid being one-shotted.
Round 1: While Anna has good experience in dealing with danmaku in Bullet Heaven 2 she's still getting one-shotted by anything that's not plant or eath manipulation related. (like pure magic bullets)
Anna's profile says she has Magical energy absorption. I am pretty sure that could make BH2 Anna immune to Yuuka's attacks.
, with Absolute Zero Limit Breaker being her only out to incap Yuuka through her mid-godly. (That is, if her freeze even lasts 24 hours.) Yuuka also has invisibility and duplication
I could see Yuuka giving Anna lot's of trouble if she turned invisible. I don't think Anna could see Yuuka's physical attacks while she is invisible. But if I remember well, Yuuka has only turned invisible in her good ending of Mystic Square, she has never turned invisible in combat so I think it would be OOC for her to do that. Not only that but it takes her a lot of time to cast that spell that turned her invisible.
and
also has Spirit Manipulation that negs baseline soul resist and can in theory also incap with mind manip (wich surprisingly Anna does not resist, she only resists empath manipulation, but given the wording on Yuuka's profile it seems very out of character.)
Anna won't resist those things if she is hit by them. But I am not sure if Yuuka would use mind manipulation in character. She has never mind maniped someone in canon.
I'd say it depends on if Anna's type 8 is combat applicable here, where if it is she likely freezes Yuuka before she can eventually use her mind manip. If it isn't she needs to manually cast Self Revive to keep alive, wich isn't very promising while being showered by Danmaku.
Not gonna lie, I don't know if that type 8 immortality is combat applicable. I played EBF4 and I thought it was just a game mechanic and the players were just breaking the fourth wall.
Round 2: Same as before, but now Anna can use information analysis on Yuuka that tells her resistances/attack types as well as weaknesses
Anna can summon the Scan bot in EBF4. BH2 Anna has the same abilities as she did in EBF4 so she should be able to know Yuuka's resistances and stuff like that in Round 1.
plus depending on her Low 2-C AP it's now no longer a one-shot and she can also gain morale by defending. Wich means it's likely her win here.
EBF5 Anna is low 2-C while Yuuka is 2-C so Yuuka should one shot if she manages to hit Anna
Can EBF members still negate mid-godly through dispel assuming it's magic based?
Nope, they have never negated mid godly regeneration unless I am mistaken. They can only negate mid-low regen.
In short, incapacitation probably Anna's only wincon unless there's some hax I'm unaware of. Absolute Zero is going to have an absolute zero effect on her due to her physiology. Like all youkai, she can turn Incorporeal at will through solid structures, much like a phantom or ghost. Keeping her in ice jail isn't going to work, sadly.
I agree.
Another important note. It's debatably not in her nature to resort to Mind Manipulation, deriving off of how she treats the heroines in LLS and PFoV. Seeing as she
prefers blitzing things to death with physical blows, and only really fights for her own entertainment in earlier entries, she's going to be in Anna's face a loooot. And if that doesn't work, she's going to get Master Sparked twice over.
Holding my vote for now. But I'm very confident that this is in Yuuka's favor for Round 2. (
Translated scans sourced form here. )
I think that it would be hard for Yuuka to get near Anna due to her multiple methods of lowering her opponents Evade like
Bind for example, which reduces Evade by 40% Anna's
Absolute Zero can also reduce evade by 50%
I am pretty sure lowering Evade means you lower the speed of your opponent because of how abilities that lower evade are themed around inducing slowness.
Anna can also reduce Accuracy.
Blizzard can reduce Accuracy by 35%,
Sand Dune can reduce Accuracy by 55% and Anna summoning a
Coal Bat can reduce Accuracy by 30%
Does Yuuka have any way to negate Anna's type 8 immortality or incap in case it can be applied to combat? ( it's a temporal rewind type thing that comes from "the player" who views the verse as fiction. )
Probably by destroying Anna's soul but I am not sure if soul manip can counter type 8 immortality. If Yuuka was acting out of character, she could mind hax Anna.
Anyway, I will make more cases to why I think Anna should still take it.
She has Death inducement (Yuuka could probably revive from it, but it's still a way for Anna to harm Yuuka and bypass the durability gap)
Her magic attacks negate conventional durability (That makes up for the durability gap)
She can lower Yuuka's Evade and Accuracy
She can absorb magical energy
Epic Battle Fantasy 5 Anna could summon the
Demon Mirror to turn
Invisibility. That status makes her immune to physical attacks but more succeptible to magical attacks. But she has the same abilities as her previous keys, so I believe that with Invisibility, Magical energy absorbtion due to her ebf4 key and her capacity to be immune or absorb bio and earth attacks with her equipment, Anna should be able to take no damage from any physical attack Yuuka throws at her.
Anyway, I am going to sleep, but I believe Anna can weaken Yuuka with magical attacks until she is incapacitated. It's an incredibly close fight that could go either way but I believe
Anna would win more times than not and she should be able to win both rounds against Yuuka. Good night everyone.
