Submitting alongside another run that uses the +20% Attack, -5% Defense scroll (臨) to show the impact. Every fight with the scroll is faster. While 10 seconds isn't enormous, Normal and Hard have more to gain with the XII (漢) scroll that prevents flinching.

Can see in Training mode that several characters are tied for the most damage with the Jump + Long A, Forward + Long A combo. I think Moriya is the best of the ten Story 1 characters since he has the very fast and ranged Down, Back + Punch finisher and a good arc on sword swings in case the enemy jumps. Not that enemy attacks even once here on Easy! Every button press was planned out since a docile enemy is kind of like perfect RNG.
