Readme file for Bakyukona; by Lillie's MADs
Origin: Vacuum Bed Series

Hey, thanks for downloading this character!
The character was made on version 1.0, but it should work perfectly in 1.1, barring some zoom issues or whatever.

----> SPECIAL NOTE <----

This character is 18+. The character itself doesn't contain anything super explict, but it's based on and ripped straight from a variety of fetish porn films.
If you're not 18+, please do not use this character.

General information:
______________
This character is based on a rather niche japanese fad known as the "Vacuum Bed Series". It's origin is found back in a 2007 upload of a cut video taken from a vacuum bed fetish film, featuring an actress cosplaying as Konata Izumi from Lucky Star.
After discovering it, I became enamored with the source and wanted to make a character based on it. What I didn't know was that I would go on to buy a ton of porn and turn it into much more than an hour long joke project.
This character contains a move or aesthic based on at least every source I could find used in the videos of this niche genre. If you wanna see some yourself, search for the tag "バキュームこなた" on NND.

Bakyukona is essiantly a combination of two other characters I love a ton, Battle Dome by LONISAKA and Lian-D by a487561. It's not meant to be fair at all, able to fill the screen very quickly from attacks at all sides and highly damaging supers with invulnerablity.
The custom AI also takes advantage of this at every moment. This character is definetly more suited for Watch Mode than anything else, but even if the jokes are completly unable to be gotten if you're not japanese or like me and spent hours opon hours looking at it, I hope it's fun enough to observe at least. It was on SpriteClub!

Movelist:
______________

A: DVD
Bakyukona will shoot out a DVD of one of the various films. Holding down while pressing A will shoot it upwards.
In the air, the move can used multiple times and comes out faster, like Akuma's air fireball in a way.

B: Konata Noises
Bakyukona's namesake shoots across the screen. The direction pressed will determine the direction.
As long as Konata is not in her Level 2 super or being hurt, it can be summoned, forcing a small cooldown after hitting or going offscreen.

C: Rei n' Miku
Shooting up from below, the two girls headbonk the opponent. They cannot be interupted, but simply walking forward should avoid them for most chars.

Forward + C: Shooting Range
Throw that can hit in the air. The opponent is put onto a shooting range and struck with a magnum bullet. This attack can be chained into Kona's Spacium Beam.

Down + C: Haruhi (uses 500 power)
Bakyukona summons Haruhi to help her by shooting up to 5 projectiles. Being hit will cause her to abandon the field early.

X: Falling Things
Bakyukona makes a variety of projectiles fall from the sky. Pressing left will summon them close by, no direction at the middle of the stage and right at the far end of the screen.

Y: Shock Boy
One of the Tokyo Shock boys appears in the background and screams loudly. As a fullscreen, it cannot be interupted, but does little damage on block.

Forward + Y: Mike Myers/Kyubey
Bakyukona summons one of two assists right in front of her. 
It can either be Mike Myers, who uses a small multi-combo or Kyubey, who knocks the opponent away with a tail swipe and can hit on the ground.
Both can be hit away.

Z: Spacium Beam (uses 1000 power)
Bakyukona channels her inner Ultraman power and uses their signature beam attack. She is invulnerable while the attack is going off.

Forward + Z: KICKBACK (uses 1000 power)
Bakyukona summons Kenshi Yonezu to help her, but he gets hit by a car.
Acts as a fast projectile to catch opponents off guard.

Back + Z: THE GLORY (uses 2000 power)
Bakyukona combines the powers of the vacuum engine, friendship and cheerleading practice in order to turn into a monster.
The attack will only begin if the opening projectile lands.

Start: Powercharge
Bakyukona looks at what is most surely a chocolate cornett and gains power by doing so.
The charge will last until Start is released or Bakyukona reaches max power.

Automatic: Pepsiman
Pepsiman runs into the opponent, flinging off regardless of if he hits, gets blocked or hit himself - gotta say, he looks a bit off today...
Just like real life, you cannot summon Pepsiman. He will simply appear and there's nothing you can do about it.

So fun fact, this character has had by far the most financial investment so far, if I calced it right, the investment was 120+ euros for all the porn I bought. But hey, it was worth it in the end, I think.
I'm not into vacuum bed porns, the same way I wasn't into extreme CBT with Roy's Weezing. I just love japanese online culture around porn!
The level 2 was originally a level 3, but I found it so fun that I wanted the AI to use it more. So now it does!

Another thing, the site where I bought all these films from, miraidouga - I don't know if it's a product variety thing, but some of the ones I bought have gone offline since.
Hope they'll be back to purchase again sometime soon, these were just downloads afterall.

I only made the code, except for when I took it from other chars (all credited in the code). Anything else belongs to their respective creators.
Take any of my janky code and/or edit this character as you'd wish. Just don't claim that you made this version to begin with and we're all set.
Feel free to redistribute it aswell, just credit me, in that case. Pretty please.
