CONTROL NOTATION
================
This FAQ uses the following notation to describe controller input for
character moves.
f = Directional pad forward (right if character is facing right)
b = Directional pad back (left if character is facing right)
d = Directional pad down
u = Directional pad up
uf = Directional pad up-forward
ub = Directional pad up-back
df = Directional pad down-forward
db = Directional pad down-back
S = Square button (weak slash)
T = Triangle button (strong slash)
slash = Either slash (S or T)
X = X button (weak kick)
O = Circle button (strong kick)
kick = Either kick (X or O)
L1 = L1 button
L2 = L2 button
select = Select button
, = Push buttons in sequence
EX: d, d = Push down twice in a row
X, X, X = Push X three times in a row
+ = Push buttons together
EX: S + T = Push square and triangle at the same time
d + O = Push down an circle at the same time (not hold down and
then press circle)
() = Conditions that must be met to do a move.
EX: (air) = Must do the move while jumping
(run) = Must do the move while running
Most of these are self-explanatory
All moves listed assume the default button configuration:
S = weak slash, T = strong slash, X = weak kick, O = strong kick,
L1 = roll toward screen, L2 = roll away from screen
You can, of course, reconfigure the buttons to whichever format you like.
Personally, I set all L & R buttons to rotate moves since I hate the automatic
special move settings.
============
COMMON MOVES
============
The following moves are common to all characters in the game, although the
full effect of each move varies with the character.
Walk forward: f
Walk backward: b
Dash forward: f, f
Dash backward: b, b
Run forward: f, (hold f)
Jump up: u
Jump backward: ub
Jump forward: uf
Block high attacks: hold b (when being attacked)
Block low attacks: hold db (when being attacked)
Roll towards screen: L1 or d, d
Roll away from screen: L2 or d, d
(The "d, d" motion does not allow you to choose
which direction you roll)
Roll towards opponent: f + L1 or f + L2 or f, df, f, df
(L1 rolls toward screen, L2 rolls away. This is
really difficult to do without the L or R buttons
set to rotate)
Sidestep: L1 or L2 while running
(L1 rolls toward screen, L2 rolls away. It is
impossible to do this without the L or R buttons set
to rotate)
Throw opponent: T + O (close to opponent)
Push opponent behind you: b + T + O (close to opponent)
Quick recovery: S or T or X or O (As your character hits the ground
while falling back from an attack. This can only be
done after being hit by certain moves)
Bounce off of wall: S or X or O (As your character hits the wall while
falling back from an attack)
Attack off wall: T (As your character hits the wall while falling
back from an attack)
Mid-air recovery: O (Just after the peak of your character's arc while
falling back from an attack)
The following are the different ways you can move while standing up after
being knocked down
Quick stand: S or T or X or O
Roll forward: f
Roll backward: b
Roll to the side: L1 or L2 or d, d (L1 rolls toward screen, L2 rolls
away)
Jump: u
The following are the basic attack moves. They have different effects
depending on what position your character is in.
Quick weak attack (usually with weapon): S
Slow strong attack (usually with weapon): T
Quick weak attack (usually with feet): X
Slow strong attack (usually with feet): O
Possible positions:
Standing and facing opponent
Standing with back to opponent
Crouching and facing opponent
Crouching with back to opponent
Jumping
Running
A brief note on guns:
Five characters in the game are equipped with guns or other projectile weapons
with limited ammunition. Some have the ability to replenish their ammo
supply, and some don't. For those that have these kind of weapons, the
current ammo supply is displayed just above the character's name during the
match.
=============
SPECIAL MOVES
=============
Any moves that do not fall under any other category can be found here. Each
character has his own unique set of special moves, although many are common
between a few different characters.
========
COUNTERS
========
Counters are basically uninteruptable attacks. A character doing a counter
will take damage if hit, but will not stop doing the move until he/she is
finished. This is useful for pushing back over-aggressive opponents. Every
character has at least one counter move and some have two. They are all done
with either "b + T" or "b + O".
======
TAUNTS
======
Taunts are moves that tease the opponent. The most common effect of a taunt
is that the opponent's Overdrive bar (see Overdrive moves) is raised.
However, some characters' taunts have other effects. In the "Individual
Character Moves" section, special effects of specific taunts are described in
the "move description" field. An "NS" in this field means "Nothing Special",
or that particular taunt has only the common effect of raising the opponent's
OD bar. To perform a taunt with any character, press "select".
=======
STRINGS
=======
A string is a series of attacks that flow together in rapid succession.
Strings should not be confused with combos. A combo is a series of attacks
that are impossible to block if the first move connects properly. Although
most strings in Toshinden 3 result in combos, this is not necessarily always
the case, as a few strings have a long enough break between moves for the
opponent to recover and block the rest of the string. To perform a string,
simply tap out the attack buttons in the proper order as quick as possible.
Unlike games like Tekken, the timing of the button presses in strings does not
have to be very precise. As long as you hit the correct buttons in the
correct order (and are not too slow) the string should work.
===========
SUPER MOVES
===========
Super moves, are moves that are extremely flashy and powerful. Usually, the
screen darkens when a character performs a super move. There are four types
of super moves: Overdrives, Life Bombs, Desperation moves, and Secret moves.
Overdrives:
Just above each character's life bar is a smaller bar. This is the Overdrive
bar. This bar starts out empty and gradually fills up as you perform moves,
receive blows, block attacks, etc. When the Overdrive bar fills completely,
it will start flashing and slowly drain back down to empty. While your OD
bar is flashing you may perform your character's Overdrive move. All
characters may do their OD move simply by pressing "S + T" or "X + O". Doing
your OD move automatically reduces your OD bar to empty.
Life Bombs:
Life Bombs are super moves that usually involve some manipulation of the
character's ki, such as an aura surrounding the character that damages the
opponent if touched. Life Bombs can be done any time during a match, but can
only be done a certain number of times (twice in a one round match, four times
in a two out of three match, five times in a three out of five match). Just
above your character's OD meter there should be a number of small blue
spheres. This tells you how many Life Bombs you have left to use in the
match. Every time you use one, one of the blue spheres disappears. The
exception to this rule is Adam, whose mid-air Life Bomb does not use up one
from the supply. I believe this is a glitch in the game programming. Life
Bombs may be done either on the ground, or in the air with different effects.
In either case, Life Bombs are activated by all characters simply by pressing
"S + X".
Desperation Moves:
Desperation moves are basically last resort moves used to make a comeback when
losing a round. In order to do a Desperation move, your character's entire
life bar must be flashing. This first happens when your life drops below one
fourth. After you perform a Desperation move (whether it connects or not) the
empty portion of your life bar will stop flashing (Only the red filled bit at
the end will continue to flash). The life bar will remain like this until
your character takes damage again, at which point the entire bar will flash
and you will be able to perform the Desperation move again. All characters
(except Kayin) may perform their Desperation move with "f, b, f, T". Kayin's
Desperation move is "f, b, f, O".
Secret Moves:
Secret moves are super moves that may be performed any time during a match,
and may be performed as many times in a match as you like. The drawback to
Secret moves is that they require a fairly elaborate and often difficult
controller motion to perform. The specific motion for the Secret move varies
with different characters. I believe all the characters have at least one
Secret move (although I do not yet have them all), and some (such as Shou) may
have more than one.
******************************************************************************
************************* Individual Character Moves *************************
******************************************************************************
In the following section, each move is described in three fields. The first
gives the controller motion required to perform the move. The second is the
name of the move (i.e. what the character yells, if anything, when performing
the move). In the cases where the character does not say anything
intelligible, this field is filled with "N/A". Since most of the speaking in
this game is in Japanese, I do not know exactly what each character is saying.
Wherever possible, I include the correct name for the move, but just for fun,
in the cases where I do not know the correct Japanese for what's said, I
include a phrase in parentheses in place of the correct word/phrase. This is
what it sounds like to me. Some of these are rather humorous. In cases where
I don't know the name of the move, and I can't think of anything to put in its
place, this field is filled with "???". The third field gives a brief
description of the move.

Super Moves:
Overdrive: ??? - Catch opponent in taser wires, multiple shocks, shotgun
shot.
Life Bomb: ??? - White energy pistol shot
Air Life Bomb: Shine - Yellow energy pistol shot
Desperation: N/A - Alternating pistol and shotgun shots
Secret: unknown
Bug note: Vermilion's S/T move while crouching with back to opponent fires the
shotgun, but uses pistol ammo. What this means is, you are required
to have shotgun ammo to do the move, but you don't use any.
Therefore, as long as you have shotgun ammo, you can do this move
indefinitely without reloading (although you will not have any
pistol ammo left after a few shots).

******************************************************************************
******************************* Unknown Moves ********************************
******************************************************************************
The following are moves that I have either seen the computer do, or have done
myself with the L and R buttons but don't know the proper controller motion to
do them otherwise. If you know the correct way to do any of these, please let
me know.
Cuiling: Secret move - She waves her claws, does the low power kick, a few
claw slashes, and ends with the mid-air mystic sphere.
You can do this move by using the instant secret move
trick described below.
Ellis: Ribbon toss - She tosses the bow on her back a short distance, and it
comes back to her. This was in the first game, but it
doesn't seem to work the same way in this one. You can
do this move by using the instant secret move trick
described below.
******************************************************************************
*********************************** Codes ************************************
******************************************************************************
Random select: Hold L1 + L2 + R1 + R2 at the character select screen to make
the selection box jump randomly around all the characters.
Press S or T or X or O while box is moving to select a
character at random.

No life bars: Pause the game during a match. Press S + T + X + O + select.

This will make the options menu disappear. Press it again,
and the life bars, OD bars, timer, etc. will disappear. Now
unpause and play without knowing how much life you have left or
how full your OD bar is. Pause the game and press all five
buttons one more time to return to normal.
(Note on unlocking bosses: I've received all sorts of conflicting information
about the requirements for unlocking boss characters. Until I have time to
investigate this thoroughly, I'm going to leave this section of the faq alone,
since what's listed here is what worked for me. If this doesn't work for you,
try beating the game with a better time, as that may have something to do with
it.)
Play as sub-bosses: Beat the game with each basic character at any level or to
unlock his/her sub-boss.
Play as Shou: After unlocking all the sub-bosses, beat the game with any
character on level 3 or higher.
Play as Abel: Beat the game with Shou at level 7
Play as Veil: Beat the game with Abel at level 7
Play as Naru: Beat the game with Veil at level 7
Alternate character costumes: Beat the game with Naru at level 7. Select your
character with S or X to get the alternate
 costume. For some characters this is just a
couple new colors for their old costume, but for
many, its an entirely new outfit.
Instant Secret moves: After beating the game with Naru, set two or more of the
L and R buttons to special moves. Press all special
move buttons at once to perform some characters' secret
moves. Unfortunately, this does not work for all
characters.
Free Ground Life Bombs: Set one of the L or R buttons to Life Bomb (see
Options Explanations section). When you run out of
Life Bombs, press the preset L/R button and any attack
button at the same time to continue to do ground Life
Bombs. This does not work with Air Life Bombs and
will freeze the game if you try it in the air with
certain characters.
Camera angle control: At the Key Config screen, press all four L and R buttons
simultaneously. This will set all L and R buttons to
camera controls. Also, while the game is paused, push
S+T+X+O+select to get rid of the options menu. Press
all five buttons again to get rid of menu bars. Once the
options menu is gone, you may simply press select to
toggle between camera rotate mode and pan/zoom mode (use
the directional pad up and down in pan/zoom mode).
******************************************************************************
**************************** Options Explanations ****************************
******************************************************************************
The following is an explanation (not translation) of all options in the game,
for those who are having trouble figuring out what they do.
Main Option Screen:
Option 1: Stereo vs. Monaural
Both choices contain four katakana characters. Monaural is the
choice where the second character consists of a single stroke. Stereo
is the other choice.
Option 2: Camera Angle
This can be set by pausing the game and accessing the options menu
from there. This allows you to see what the camera angle looks like
for each choice.
Option 3: Level of Difficulty
Choices range from 0 to 7. The default is 3, and level 7 is the
narrowest (smallest total character width) of the choices. Pushing
left moves down one level, pushing right moves up one level. To set
it to a specific level, start at either of the above reference points
and count as you adjust the difficulty up or down.
Option 4: Round Time
Choices are 60 seconds, 99 seconds, and infinity. The choice with
only kanji (no numbers) is infinity.
Option 5: Rounds per Match
Choices are 1, 2, or 3.
 Option 6: Animation Mode.
Choices are 30 frames per second and 60 frames per second. 30 fps
mode has better graphics but choppier animation. 60 fps mode
sacrifices wall textures, gauraud shading, and some special effects
for smoother animation.
Key Config Screen:
Options on the left are for player 1 controller. Options on the right are
for player 2 controller.
Options 1-4 (either side): L and R buttons
Choices are:
Reference point - Choice ending with 1 - Special move 1
Push right 1 time - Choice ending with 2 - Special move 2
Push right 2 times - Choice ending with 3 - Special move 3
Push right 3 times - Choice ending with 4 - Special move 4
Push right 4 times - 4 kana characters - Roll towards screen
Push right 5 times - 3 kana characters - Roll away from screen
Push right 6 times - 4 kana characters - Roll either way
Push right 7 times - Choice starting with R - Counter attack
Push right 8 times - 5 kana characters - Life bomb
Push right 9 times - 3 kana characters - Block
Push right 10 times - 3 kana characters - Not used
Options 5-8 (either side): Attack buttons
Choices are:
Reference point - 3 kana, first has - Weak slash
unbroken horizontal
stroke on top
Push right 1 time - 3 kana characters - Strong slash
Push right 2 times - 4 kana characters - Weak kick
Push right 3 times - 4 kana characters - Strong slash
Option 9 (either side): Blocking style
Choices are autoblock on or autoblock off. Autoblock on is the choice
where the first character is a simple box divided into three sections.
Save/Load screen:
After selecting one of these options, you will be presented with a
confirmation option screen.
Option 1: Save
Option 2: Load
Confirmation screen:
This is essentially an "Are you sure you want to do this?" screen.
Option 1: Yes
Option 2: No
