Hey everyone! DaMarioMemer back with another BBTag AI Patch. So I figured I'd do another one and one that's quite special for me at that. I decided to go with Mitsuru who was another one on BlkIntrovert88's wishlist and also for one of my best IRL friends who loves talking to me about their love for Persona. Mitsuru has a lot of very good aspects about her kit, while also little but very bad aspects about her balances her out quite a bit. Mitsuru has some really good specials that serve their purposes as mix-ups, combo tools and reversals. She also has amazing hypers and her freeze hyper is probably one of the best hypers in a BBTag character along with also having the general pros of being BBTag. However, she also comes with a few very noticeable flaws such as having poor attack speed with her normals, very mediocre guard strings and having an awkward set of aerials that don't really go together well at all. I designed Mitsuru's AI to make good use of her specials in neutral and taking advantage of her combos whenever she gets the chance, however similar to Terumi, I designed her AI to stop extending to give the opponent a chance, but she will go all out of she has to like if she gets an Ultra Burst. Mitsuru was another BBTag that I quite enjoyed working on and I had a lot of fun designing the AI's combos and neutral.

Pros:
Usual BBTag stuff. You got your ultrabursts, air dashes, long/powerful combos, Invincible back dash, etc.
Her specials are very solid, from her DP that's a great reversal and anti-air to the projectiles she can summon with her persona. "Marin-Karin" summons a small projectile that will slowly float towards the opponent and has a LOT of hitstun and "Tentarafoo" has her [erspma shoot out a fairly quick wave of ice on the ground that hits low and is something she can throw out randomly in neutral or in a guard string as it's not even that unsafe even at upclose. And lastly her EX move "Bufula" Shoots out an ice mirror that has a lot of vertical range and slowly approaches the opponent doing multi-hit damage. Very good move that applies easy pressure and even tanks projectiles, knocking the mirror back a bit. And lastly "Coup Droit" is a very simple lunging type attack that is primarily used as a combo ender, though the stronger version can be used as a decent mix-up on guard due to it being -2 at worst.
Her hypers are just amazing. "Myriad Arrows" is as simple and as good as a BBTag hyper can get, being a quick and very consistent combo hyper that can be used as a reversal that will not trade. And somehow her other level 1 hyper "Bufudyne" is even stronger. Her Persona shoots out a massive ice spike that has a lot of range even covering a bit behind her to counter cross-ups and is air unblockable as well. This hyper is really easy to combo into and on contact freezes the enemy and gives her an easy free extender. You're obviously limited to one freeze but this hyper is just amazing for it's versatility and reward. And lastly her Astral is of course very solid, really easy to combo into but unlike most it's not really the best reversal. Which isn't really a problem at all.
Cons:
Her normals are pretty slow and overall her frame data on normals is pretty weak which is normal for most BBTags.
Mediocre Guard Combos/Strings, she has some mix-ups but most of the time they're very risky to do.
Her set of Aerials don't really go together all that well. At least she can DP in the air which is always nice.
