II. Introduction
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

This is a guide for all of the Dojo Moves and Techniques that can be 
learned in Okami. It’s also my very first attempt at a FAQ. There may 
be a few minor spoilers.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
IIi. Wii Version Note
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Obviously, those of you play the Wii version of Okami won’t be using 
strange buttons such as "Square", "X", "Circle", "Triangle" or "R2". 
Instead, to use normal attacks, as controlled by "Square" in the PS2 
version, time your Wii remote swings in rythmn with your attacks. For 
sub-weapons, use the Z button located on the back of the Nunchuk 
attackment (This is also used to bark out of battle). To dig, use the 
C button, also located on the back of the nunchuk (and again, this 
takes a second action, it’s used for both the Golden Fury and Brown Rage 
attacks in-battle). Finally, shake the Nunchuk in a particular direction 
to perform a Fleetfoot dodge, which utilized the "R2" button in the 
earlier version.

After you complete the game, you can start a new file with a New Game +.
You keep your stats, Yen, Praise, and most of your items. However, you don’t
keep all of your Dojo Techniques. The ones you keep when you start a New Game +
are:

-Reflector Technique- 4 Winds
-Reflector Technique- 5 Winds
-Rosary Technique- Spirit Storm
-Rosary Technique- Spirit Armageddon
-Glaive Technique- 3 Shears
-Glaive Technique- 4 Shears
-God Technique- Wailing Mirror
-God Technique- Bead String

-God Technique- Sword Dance
-God Technique- Counter Dodge(You have to re-learn Fleetfoot to use this)
-God Technique- Holy Falcon(You have to re-learn Holy Eagle to use this)
-God Technique- Golden Fury
-God Technique- Brown Rage

Counter Dodge and Holy Falcon are most likely kept so that you don’t have to
wait until you get to Kamui to learn them again.
