Fight while checking the battle situation via the “Dosukoi Gauge” at the top of the screen. Be careful not to let your team’s gauge get too low.
Pay attention to the “kimarite” (winning technique) when an ally or enemy attacks with the final blow. Depending on the final blow delivered, the kimarite (“Demon Arm Throw,” etc.) will change.
Win battle after battle and aim for yokozuna! You can also earn rewards by building up Gottsuan Points.
