Startup	Active	Recovery	Total	Frame Adv.	Meter
10	6	21	37	-5	5/4
Chun's panty-slippin high sidekick. A trade anti-air (no pre projected hurtboxes before becoming active but poor priority with big hit/hurtboxes afterwards) so if you want to beat a move cleanly you have to use Close Forward instead, which has good priority up close. Against some high priority air normals however, your only option may be a trade so this move is useful, and it can be used that way against most air normals as long as you time it correctly, minus against some very high priority normals like Cammy's Aerial Strong or against characters with very low jumps, like Boxer. Another difference to keep in mind is that the hitbox of this move is more centered than Close Forward, this is important against ambiguous crossup moves like a crossing up air tatsu for example. This also allows Chun to actually beat/trade with FeiLong's Chicken Wing corner trap, but it's difficult to use because the timing is very strict: you have a 1 frame window (with "reversal timing") for it to beat it cleanly and another 1 frame window to get a trade, anything slower than that and the move will come out too late and Chun will eat the Chicken Wing and probably a combo as well. And since you'll most likely be playing on a frame-skipping turbo speed, the timing becomes even more strict, leaving Chun with only one usable counter to the Chicken Wing corner trap: kara-cancelled low normal into Tenshokyaku.

Another split kick. Don't think too hard about how the hurtbox works. Ok range, but unlike Old Chun's version of this move the lowest hurtbox got stretched horizontaly so the overall priority is bad. Favor Neutral Jumping Short. That hurtbox was also reduced downwards though, allowing this move to beat Honda's Headbutts, something none of her other neutral jump normals can (with the exception of Head Stomp, but that forces a bounce which can be very bad on a neutral jump). This requires Chun to land right top of him, because the horizontal priority is not enough to beat Headbutts from the front.

Essentially a jumping version of Chun's 3MK command normal. This has a good horizontal range, and trades with most attacks if you time it right. It can also be used against grounded opponents on the way up. This is a rare case of normal moves that cause a full knockdown. This also doesn't require the opponent to be standing to be blocked, which is also unique (and bad for Chun). It can be special canceled as well, but the only special move Chun can use in the air requires back charge, and you don't have enough airtime to get a charge before you land.

Chun-Li puts her back into a fireball. Damage and speed increases with strength. The fireball will travel a set distance, which decreases with strength (along with Chun's recovery frames). Due to a glitch, it's possible to change the recovery of any Kikoken to that of a Fierce by either whiffing or kara-canceling a Fierce or Roundhouse normal. You can read more about it here. This move has the best startup for a fireball in the game by far, which helps tremendously stopping advancing moves like Honda's Headbutt. This move works very well as an anti-air tool. Even if it trades, you score a full knockdown, which you can use to apply your strong wake-up game.

Chun-Li unleashes a flurry of kicks at lightning speed. Continuing to mash the button after the move comes out will keep the move going indefinitely. Will never combo into itself. Once this attack hits, subsequent hitboxes will whiff until your opponent can block. Chun's legs are fully invulnerable, giving the move excellent priority. General Strategies Since your legs are invunlerable and your hurtboxes are moved backwards, this move will beat most other attacks in melee range. An important strategy is to use Lightning Legs to whiff punish attacks from afar, when your opponent is worried about throws, Strong punches, and Forward kicks. This move also works great as an okizeme option, provided you space your move properly to avoid a reversal.

Invincible on frames 1-4 Chun-Li rises into the air, unleashing a torrent of tornado kicks. Chun is considered airborne for the entire move. This move causes a 3 hit juggle state. Despite Forward and Roundhouse having more than 3 hitboxes, it can still only juggle 3 times in the air. This move does not have any grounded recovery frames, allowing for blocking and counter throws as soon as you land. General Strategies The Roundhouse version is your go-to reversal outside of Super. It can't be safe jumped due to the 2 frame startup and can also thwart meaty crossups.

Invincible from frames 1-17, 22-23, and 89-108. Chun-Li flips onto her hands, pushes back up into the air, and spins forward. The spins where Chun-Li faces backwards do more damage than the ones where she faces forwards. For some reason there's a 1x1 hitbox inside of Chun-Li's pushbox during the frames between the bigger, actually useful hitboxes (with the exception of some of the animation frames of the Forward version.) See the detailed hitbox information for more detail. This could be used as an anti-tick throw special since most of the startup is invulnerable, but you're likely better off using Tenshokyaku or Super due to this move's unpredictable nature.

The Spinning Bird Kick but in the air. Landing before this move finishes its last active frame will stick you in a 25 frame long landing animation. If the animation completes, it's only 10 frames long. Cannot be used after a head stomp like in SF2 Hyper Fighting. This move has the 1x1 hitbox during most of its inbetween frames like the grounded version. Due to the long charge time required, this move is near impossible to perform during a neutral or forward jump. As a result this move is mostly used for meter building or avoiding specific attacks. You can use this move during or just after a wall jump however. Using it before the walljump animation ends will retain your original jump arc, while doing it just after you walljump will have you use the walljump's trajectory.

Chun-Li goes full power with a non-stop barrage of kicks. Often considered one of if not the best Super Combo in the game. Affected by the Input Storing glitch. The second towards can be held as long as you need before performing the move. You can also stop holding towards for up to 12 frames and still keep the Super stored. NOTE: The Input Storing Glitch was fixed in Hyper Street Fighter 2. An alternate version of Chun-Li with the glitch restored can be selected by holding Start on Version Select, selecting the Super Turbo/Super X version, and then picking Chun-Li. Invincible on frames 1-14. Since this move starts a juggle state, you can use a Tenshokyaku afterwards to get an additional 2 hits in. This is useful if you can't hit every hit of the super (due to an early anti-air, for example).

Chun has a considerably fast prejump. In contrast, she has a huge jump arc that's easy to react to. This is especially true against characters with DP moves; Ryu for instance can punish her with his DP most of the time.
Chun-Li, just like Claw, has the ability to do wall jumps. That's why the Forward Jump has a '+' on the final frame of the aerial jumping part: that animation will have longer duration in case it's a wall jump.

The landing recovery has a special property which allows it to be canceled into certain actions. At the first landing frame, you can perform throws (including command throws), and on the second landing frame, you can start another jump, attack with a normal or special move, or block. Blocking not being until the second landing frame, as well as hitbox-hurtbox interactions having priority over throwbox-throw hurtbox is why sweeps work as anti airs in this game.
Things are different when jumping over your opponent, however. In that situation it's possible to walk back/forward, to jump again or to even block on the first landing frame! Strangely, if a throw is timed on the first landing frame of a jump that crosses over, a throwbox will never come out, even though that input will result in a normal coming out 2 frames later (like it normally would). Anyway, being able to block on the first landing frame can help a little bit on some safe jump crossup setups, or maybe in other situations as well if your character has a huge jump arc.
