Introduction
Hi, erm....this is my first ever FAQ, so if there is anything i did wrong,
please tell me, or if you have anything to add, email me at 
[email protected]. First, let me congratulate you on planning or 
already buying, in my opinion, one of the greatest games. This is not a 
translation guide to the game, although I will be translating anything that
needs it in order for the English crowd to understand.

Jump Superstars is a Japanese-only 2D fighter game in which you fight as and 
against characters from a wide selection of manga (Japanese comic books) from 
the popular magazine Shonen Jump. The reason why it wasn't brought to English 
or any other language speaking country is multiple ownership of these comics 
in those countries. But we don't care about that, since if your reading this, 
you already know that.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

In The Beginning........There Were The Basics

This FAQ is to help you, the reader, and hopefully, a video gamer, get the 
most out of the game. This looks at the battle system, which i will quickly 
go over, so if you already know, skip this next part:

	Imagine a page in a comic book, with the page being split into 20 
equal squares (4 by 5). Now, to set up a team, each battle character you want 
on there will take up 4-7 squares (depending on how strong they are), plus you 
can have a wide variety of characters to summon into battle to do a quick to 
semi-quick attack on people, each of these taking up between 2-3 squares, 
called support characters, and then every character has a single square that 
can be used, called help squares, while not summoning anything on the screen, 
will help in other ways, giving you boosts to a variety of places (speed, 
healing ability, temporary invincibility, etc.). In the game and for the rest 
of this FAQ, a square is called a koma. While in battle, to use a character/
switch to a different battling character, you use the interactive bottom 
screen on the DS. 

Now, this FAQ specifically looking into 3 separate and yet connected komas 
that you use to create a special attack, which when you press any of these 
will call a second battle character for you both to do an attack on an 
opponent, called a tag-team attack. Most battle characters, when paired up, 
will do an attack that they would do if you had pressed their 2 or 3 support 
koma (There is no difference, I have found, in tag-team attacks, if you use a 
different size battle koma). But there is a catch, there are a couple tag-team 
ups that actually does an entirely new attack, that look pretty cool. 
Specifically, this FAQ looks at the different pairing ups that work, whether 
they are special or not.

When setting up the help komas that activate the tag-team attacks, the three 
komas must be in contact on the set up screen, forming a line, whether in an 
L shape or a line. Each end of the 3 komas must come into contact with a battle 
koma, you will see what i mean since at either end will have little flashing 
arrows. To activate the attack in a battle, you just need to tap any of the 3 
squares.

For the purpose of this FAQ, i will list the symbols for each different manga 
that is in the game, so people can find the characters listed here easier: 
Football (Rugby for British players): Eyeshield21, Strawberry: Ichigo 100%, 
Black hat: Katekyo Hitman Reborn!, Ice Cream Parfait: Gintama, Golden Badge: 
KochiKame, Bowl with steam: Shaman King, Blue hat: Jojo's Bizarre Adventure, 
Green ball: Steel Ball Run, Basketball: Slam Dunk, Silver pendant: D. Grey-man, 
Black book: Death Note, Tennis racket and ball: Prince of Tennis, Pink poo: Dr. 
Slump, Dragon ball: Dragon ball Z, Leaf design: Naruto, an X with a diamond in
it: Hunter X Hunter, Black and white tokens: Hikaru No Go, Recorder/Flute: Pyuu
to Fuku! Jaguar, Steel hexagon: Busou Renkin, Black cat: Black Cat, Lion head: 
Bleach, Japanese Sybol: Bobobo-bo Bo-bobo, Baseball and bat, Mr. Fullswing, 
Upside down pyramid: Yu-Gi-Oh, Blue creature: Yu Yu Hakusho, Sword: Rurouni 
Kenshin, Pirate skull with hat: One Piece, Pirate face: Shonen Jump magazine

Now, onto......

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The Requirements

In order to do any tag-team attack, you must have A) 2 battle komas (4-7 squares
in size), and B) the Friendship, Effort, and Victory help komas

In order to get the 3 help komas, you need to do the following missions/battles:
Friendship: Beat the Grasslands 1-10 battle by defeating more characters than
your opponent

Effort: Beat the Desert 1-11 battle by defeating more characters than your 
opponent

Victory: Beat the City 1-10 battle by defeating more character than your
opponent

Except for the 4 square Luffy (from One Piece) Battle koma, which you get at the
beginning of the game, you need to unlock every other battle character, but 
there are other FAQ's for that located on http://www.gamefaqs.com and 
http://www.ign.com for that.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The Official Tag-Teams

The set up:

Name of the tag-team in Japanese or English (Depends on how the developers 
called them)
Battle koma A & battle koma B needed
The description of the attack plus any effect

Super Rasengin-Spirit Bomb!!!
Goku (Dragon Ball Z) & Naruto (Naruto)
Naruto and Goku charge up their ultimate attacks and firing it as a single
attack that when it hits an opponent enlarges and mows them and any other 
opponents near them, causing damage.

Sawai edition Oshirisu no Tenkuuryuu
Yugi (Yu-Gi-Oh) & Bo-bobo (Bobobo-bo Bo-bobo)
Bo-bobo strikes a pose as his afro opens up and Yugi stand up from inside it and
summons Osiris (Slifer The Sky Dragon for the English fans) to do a giant beam 
attack

Double Final Flash!
Don Patchi (Bobobo-bo Bo-bobo) & Vegeta (Dragon Ball Z)
Vegeta and Don Patchi stands and they attempt to do Vegeta's attack, both 
dressed as sayan warriors (for the DBZ fans), but Don Patchi becomes and 
projectile and slams into the opponent, causing them to become confused.

Gomu Gomu no ORA ORA!!
Jotaro (Jojo's Bizarre Adventure)  & Luffy (One Piece)
Luffy and Jotaro appear side by side (Jotaro with Star Platinum), and proceed to
punch the heck out of anyone that happens to get into the attack. Recommended 
for any and everyone, especially early on.

Death Spirit Bullet!?!?
Tsunayoshi and Reborn (Katekyo Hitman Reborn!) & Jaguar (Pyuu to Fuku! Jaguar) 
Jaguar sleeps for a second before being shot by Rebirth by a rebirth bullet, 
causing Jaguar to freak out, after which you get 10 seconds of invincibility, 
plus restoring your blue special bar if the entire attack goes through (although
it causes no damage)

Reading While Standing Paradise!!!! 
Gintoki (Gintama) & Kakashi (Naruto)
Kakashi and Gintoki share Kakashi's copy of Icha Icha Paradise, gaining 10 
seconds of invincibility and restoring the blue special bar at the end of the
attack (again, no damage)

Okane wa Watashi no Tameni Aru!
Ryotsu (Kochikame) & Nami (One Piece)
Ryotsu chase after Nami who is riding away from him on her bike, carrying a 
giant sack of (presumably) stolen jewels and money, hitting anyone that they
run into and causing them not to be able to use the Y and B buttons

Daigo Kougetsu Kiba
Yoh (Shaman King) & Ichigo (Bleach)
Yoh combines his DaiGokouJin with Ichigo's Gatsu Kiba Tenshou, causing a gaint
cross of black and white slashes to race across the screen.

Kannagi Chikarazoufuku Reimaru
Anna (Shaman King) & Yusuke (Yu Yu Hakusho)
Anna empowers Yusuke's Rei Gan, causing it to grow larger than normal and may
cause blindness when it hits

Sharingan World
Dio (Jojo's Bizarre Adventure) & Sasuke (Naruto)
Sasuke throws shurikens and Dio throws homing daggers across the entire field,
causing everyone everywhere in the battle damage

Wing Cross Shot
Allen (D. Grey-man)  & Eve (Black Cat)
Eve fuses into Allen's arm to power up his attack and add her own feather's to
the attack, firing a barrage of shots, ending in a gaint blast at the end

Ncha Hame Ha
Arale (Dr. Slump) & Gotenks (Dragonball Z)
Gotenks and Arale open their mouths wide open and shot spit-beams out. 

Fusion Potsumabou!!
Dr. Mashirito (Dr. Slump) & Piccolo (Dragonball Z)
Piccolo and Dr. Mashirito do the fusion dance together and fuse into one, 
yelling their butts off, casting angry hurtful words, and i don't mean 
emotionally hurtful. Prevents character changes

W Janken!!!
Gohan (Dragonball Z) & Gon (Hunter X Hunter)
Gon and Gohan use their empowered puches to send whoever gets in their way 
flying and may cause blindness

Hansei shi tadde, Shaanaruu!!
Sakura (Naruto) & Robin (One Piece)

Inner-Sakura's fists of fury

your characters critical hits and disabling your opponent's B and Y buttons

Zoro and Kenshin combine their KuzuRyuSen and Sanzen Sekai, causing great pain
to anyone caught by the deadly combo

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The Not-So-Official Tag-Teams

Alright, this is the fun part of the FAQ. This is the part which lists custom
Tag-teams that I or anyone that has submitted help have found. These can 
actually be very helpful, as i find some of them about as useful as the more 
powerful official tag-teams. I would like to point out that although Dr. 
Mashirito doesnt have a 2-3 support koma, his attack with the tag-team komas 
are the same as his up+x move for his 5 battle koma

Yoh (Shaman King) & Jaguar (Pyuu to Fuku! Jaguar) 
Although you don't need to use Yoh, i find that this combo is really effective,
especially against Power Fighters, Jaguar will run out, trap the opponent 
behind words, while Yoh throw Amidamaru at them, jaguar then launching the 
opponent up in the air, causing them to fall back to earth a bit heavier.

Explosive Grab
Robin (One Piece) &  Tsunayoshi and Reborn (Katekyo Hitman Reborn!)
This one is quite a fun one, T/R fall asleep, hanging grenades all around them,
and Robin reaches out and pulls your opponent into it, making the grenades going
off. More effective against laughter

Slash n' Blast
Kenshin (Rurouni Kenshin) & Yusuke (Yu Yu Hakusho)
Kenshin and Yusuke appear beside each other, and while Kenshin slashes the 
opponent several times, Yusuke charges and fires his Rei Gan

Punching hailstorm
Jotaro (Jojo's Bizarre Adventure) & Dio (Jojo's Bizarre Adventure)
The closer you are for this the better. It is very quick, and when done 
correctly, can be very devistating. Dio and Jotaro's avatars appear in front of
them and do a quick succession of punchs then a devistating punch, sending 
whoever is caught in it flying

Spinning Rei Gan
Gintoki (Gintama) & Yusuke (Yu Yu Hakusho)
Ok, it doesn't look like it the long the attack happens, but close enough. 
Gintoki throws his wooden sword at the same time Yusuke fires his Rei Gan, 
making it look like the sword is empowered. Prevents the foe from changing 
characters.
