Additional Notes:
- 8H+K4 power launcher transitions into IFC allowing for an IFC~K follow-up for massive damage after a full PL charge
- Naotora's a pretty big girl and is classified as a middle weight in DOA5LR
- 3P is good for a lift stun on CH.
- After an IFC~P launch, you can follow-up with KK6KK for a juggle
- the IFC stance is also good during the wake-up game especially if used just out of the range of potential wake-up kicks from the downed opponent
