Great video. That section of the video of hit confirming Giovanna’s super is also true with her double quarter circle super. If you do the the first part of the motion as a half circle motion she’ll jump, but the game will still see the input. So when you enter the second motion it work making it easier to pull off. These videos have helped a lot. Keep up the great work!

This is super helpful. It looks like in some situations with Giovanna inputs were not necessarily correct, but it still honored the super. Is that because you have the extra time from the counter, so as long as your 632146 is satisfied, you could still hit 4K, HS and it connects the HS with the previous sequence even though the 4K was timed ?

That's why there's a delay before -> HS. On normal hit the game takes the first cancel option because it's the only valid input during the cancel window (5H xx 214K). On counter hit the hitstop expands the cancel window and takes the last observed cancel option (5H xx 632146H).
