Aoi has realized what a small world she was in after losing at the previous
Tournament. Returning home, she tried hard not only to learn Aikido and
Kobujutsu, but to also improve her knowledge of other martial arts. She
is anxious to enter the Fourth World Fighting Tournament so that she can
demonstrate her enhanced repertoire of moves.

[lowercase] indicate player should only TAB the directional pad/stick towards 
the specific 
direction, whereas [UPPERCASE] indicate a player should HOLD the

7 8 9  There are also some FAQ uses the numbers on a keypad as shown at the
 \|/   left to indicate movement direction.
4-o-6
 /|\   Since the numbering system is more for advanced player and
 not so 

1 2 3  suitable to be used on this FAQ, I would use the direction abbreviation.
