Twin servants, Jade and Amber, join the game!

The twin servants of the Tono family, "HISUI" and "KOHAKU", have joined "MELTY BLOOD: TYPE LUMINA"!
Although they are not trained in martial arts, we will find out how and why they can fight in the battle and event story in this game.

Jade (CV: Kana Ichinose)
A taciturn servant with deep affection
A servant of the Tono family, she is in charge of all household chores (except cooking) in the mansion and of taking care of Shiki.
She is the twin sister of Amber.
In contrast to her older sister, Amber, Shiki wears Western-style clothing as her trademark.

She has a technical fighting style that combines a rush with speed and a variety of techniques such as flying and installation.
They use cooking utensils such as frying pans and ladles, cleaning tools, and furnishings, etc., in their servant-like (?) attacks. The attack is performed with cooking utensils such as frying pans and ladles, cleaning utensils, and furniture.

Arc Drive ︓ Dark Jade Fist
Converges mysterious energy while drawing an arc with both hands and releases a wave of continuous hits forward at once!

Last Arc ︓Tono Koso Sword ︓Samon Kiri-zaiku
A super special move in which a mysterious sword is brought out and used to slash the opponent. Jade was not supposed to have any knowledge of swordsmanship, but what exactly is this technique ......?

Amber (CV: Kuwabara Yuki)
A cheerful girl who lights up the Tono family with her smile.
She is Jade's twin sister. She has been working for the Tono family since she was a child.
She is a servant whose trademark is to wear a kimono and a kappogi (Japanese apron).
In addition to taking care of Akiba's personal needs, she is also in charge of cooking for the Tono family in general and maintaining the garden.
She also has knowledge as a pharmacist, and is on call when Shiki is unwell.
She has a cheerful and caring personality, and always has a smile on her face.

She is good at tricky mid- to long-range moves, combining a variety of techniques, such as long-reach attacks and installation techniques. Her magical and chemical-like actions, such as dropping Molotov cocktails from the sky on a bamboo broom and setting up suspicious-looking plants, are characteristic of her.

Arc Drive ︓ Opening Strike ︓ Leaning Tough Amber Legs
Dressed in a bright red china dress, she strikes her opponent with a series of palm strikes followed by a series of thrusts, tezanikae, and kicks.

Last Arc ︓Skirting Sword Technique ︓Gasyo Broomstick Star
This is a super-special move in which the fencer unleashes a flash of iai slashes from a sword embedded in a bamboo broom. The fancy background that appears after the technique is activated is also noteworthy.

New battle systems "Moon Skill" and "Moon Drive" are announced!

The new battle systems "Moon Skill" and "Moon Drive," which will be newly introduced in this title, were announced!
By consuming the new resource "Moon Icons", powerful effects will be activated for each.

Moon Icons

The moon waxes and wanes as the gauge increases and decreases.

Moon Skill
A special move that can be performed by consuming a certain amount of "Moon Icons". Normal Special Moves are not only more damaging and more powerful than normal Special Moves
