THE SECRET
There is no real secret to this technique, it simply involves throwing the giant shuriken.

HOW DO I DO IT?
Obtain a giant shuriken, and a deft twist of the wrist as you release the weapon ensures decent spin.

STRENGTHS
A distance attack that forces the opponent to move and leaves them open for a paired attack.

WEAKNESSES
As we saw against Kasumi, if the opponent is considerably faster and stronger than you, there is a chance it can be negated entirely. This attack rarely hits an opponent as it is easy to avoid, and the shuriken must be retrieved to strike again.

THE SECRET
The secret of this technique is the bandages around their arms, which are soaked in a particularly strong Sake before battle. Like petrol it is not the actual liquid alchohol that is flammable, but rather the fumes it lets off.

HOW DO I DO IT?
The secret to the way the bandages are lit is tiny pieces of flint hidden beneath the bandages on the palms of the hands. By striking the flints on opposing hands together, the bandages are set on fire. To end this powerup you must rip the bandages from your arms, as the alchohol can burn for hours if left.

STRENGTHS
This technique almost doubles attack power and often sets the opponent alight.

WEAKNESSES
Although the alchohol itself doesn't burn, the heat generated by the intense fire will cause severe burns to the arms of he that uses this technique, so the true secret is how to use it effectively without receiving heavy damage yourself. Also this technique requires a significant recovery time, so cannot be used frequently.

THE SECRET
This technique is based on pure speed, and can be used to jump repeatedly up, or just before landing a long fall to break the impact.

HOW DO I DO IT?
It is recommended you start trying the upwards air hop before you try to break your fall from the top of a building. To execute this move, you use the same action as jumping from the ground, but at a greatly increased speed, so that the air resistance of your feet pushing down is greater than the weight of your body, and therefore pushing you up using air resistence.

STRENGTHS
Can be used to climb to great heights unaided, break a deadly fall, or evade an attack you may be falling into.

WEAKNESSES
You have to be insanely fast to even attempt this technique, and continuous jumping can get very tiring. Requires intense concentration, so it is difficult to scale great heights when under attack.

THE SECRET
The kunai are thrown in rapid succession not at once. The movement of the arms in this technique resemble flapping wings. The flames that seem to appear on impact are created by the impact of steel on wood, and they only last a split second.

HOW DO I DO IT?
Once you are proficient with throwing kunai / shuriken, this technique is a natural progression. Throw 4 kunai in rapid succession with the idea of pinning your target's clothes to an inanimate surface ( wall / tree ). Try it on a wall before you demonstrate on your mates.

STRENGTHS
Pins the opponent down and immobilises their arms leaving them open for attack.

WEAKNESSES
It relies a lot on surprise and your opponent wearing loose clothing, as you saw Nikku manages to slide out of his shirt before the second attack fell.
