Frog is a three-button character made for MUGEN 1.0. This is not a final version but it should be playable.
What’s Missing:
- Specific character interactions (intros, winposes, double techs, maybe)
- Some 12p details:
- Blazing Strike (Stand ON) should have a follow-up rekka.
Moveset
Frog can perform and chain many moves in midair, including some of his super moves. His Ground Heavy Attack can be used to launch the opponent into the air while following them. This allows Frog to start air combos.
Special Moves

Requires 500 Power. A special throw using Frog’s tongue. The tongue’s length depends on the button pressed.
- Leap Slash:

(Ground)
Frog jumps over the enemy and stabs downwards. The jump’s range depends on the button pressed.
- Water:
D, DB, B, a/b/c

Special Mode
- Grand Dream:

(Ground)
Requires 3000 Power. Frog unleashes Masa&Mune. It will follow you and attack as you do, spending Power with each hit it performs. Power is also lost when Masa&Mune gets hit. The mode ends when Frog runs out of Power.
Final Move
- Frog Squash Da: D, B, D, F + a/b/c (Standing, must have Grand Dream activated)
Spends all remaining Power. A super throw. Masa&Mune throws a barrage of punches If this move connects, Frog will perform a series of attacks, ending with a giant toad stomping on the opponent.
12p Mode
Frog’s 12p Mode is based on DIO from JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure, specifically his
Heritage for the Future incarnation. As such, he has an additional button, x
,
which activates/deactivates his stand, The World. DIO’s moveset changes
depending on whether The World is active; additionally, if The World is hit, DIO
will enter a hitstate too; if The World is KO’d (it has its own lifebar) DIO
will suffer a ‘Stand Break’. The World’s HP is gradually restored when it’s not
active.
Special Moves
- Blazing Fists (Stand OFF):
D, DF, F, a/b/c
(Ground, Stand OFF)
The World unleashes a barrage of punches while advancing. The button used determines the distance The World will advance. DIO is free to move while his Stand attacks.
- Blazing Fists (Stand ON):
D, DF, F, a/b/c
(Ground/Air, Stand ON)
The World unleashes a barrage of punches while advancing along with DIO. The button used determines the distance DIO and The World will advance. Mashing the attack button will make the move last longer.
- Blazing Strike (Stand OFF):
D, DB, B, a/b/c
(Ground, Stand OFF)
The World rushes forward and throws a single hit before disappearing. The button used determines the distance it will move before hitting.
- Blazing Strike (Stand ON):

Same as before, but DIO moves alongside his stand.
