LANGUAGE ENGLISH OR JAPANESE AV OUTPUT S/VIDEO OR RGB In Order to Fight against Oboro Bishamon: You have to get 3+ EX finishes in Arcade mode, never lose a single bat, and defeat your boss with an EX move. It can't be any EX move, it's very specific. For instance, with Demitri it's the Midnight Pleasure/JP,SP,F+ 2 MEDIUM KICKs), with Morrigan it's the Darkness Illusion, and with Lilith it's the Gloomy Puppet Show. Usually it's the hardest EX move to kill someone with. You must use this EX move to rack up all 3+ EX finishes, including on the last boss one. Oboro Bishamon will appear as the Last BOSS to fight. He's verry hard to beat. Just have your P1 S.S Gauge FULL and cheeze on him and win!!! Go into the OPTIONS to adjust the Damage Gauge to 1 round and in the EX OPTIONS adjust the1P. S.S Gauge to 90! It will be easier to beat him now! Once you've beaten Oboro Bishamon goto the character select screen: and Hold "L" shift button on Bishamon's box and press any Punch or Kick button to get him. He has some new moves and old ones removed and a New entrance.

Special Moves Moves which require some motion and pressing a punch or a kick. They are usually called just 'moves'. Doing different moves store different lengths for the EX Meter.
