Eric Pinheiro.

Hint: Yoshimitsu: Slice through opponent:
You must time this move correctly before an enemy attack. Get close to your enemy, and before he or she attacks you, perform Ninja Blade Rush (Triangle, Square) quickly. You will slice directly through your opponent. It is not that powerful, but looks good. Note: If timed incorrectly, you will do the normal Ninja Blade Rush, which is just a very weak move.
Eric Pinheiro.

Hint: Yoshimitsu: Random moves:
You need to Soul Charge. When fully charged, press K + G to do random moves that are not on the command list. Note: It is better to switch a control on the Right Analog-stick to K + G to make this easier.
pigeon_man89 something.

Yoshimitsu does a random secret move, but first you need to do Soul Syphon (Forward K + G, Up/Forward K + G, Down/Forward K + G, or Forward A + B (hold)). You must then press K + G with or without any directions except the ones mentioned. You can do up to three secret moves per Soul Syphon, but you cannot use Soul Syphon twice to use the secret moves six times. There are three unblockable moves; three kicks, two moves with his sword, two dances/evades, and one guard impact move . Note: If you do not do Soul Syphon, you will do one of two taunts, and one of them stop an attack if they get too close (not guard impact). The other one where he spins like a top and does not do damage or fall over.

Hint: Perfect practice mode:
You can kill yourself in practice mode without having to ring out, resulting in a perfect for other combatant. To do this, select Yoshimitsu as the character that you are going to practice with. When the practice starts, have the opponent lay down on the ground. Next, perform Yoshimitsu's suicide attack (where he stabs himself in the stomach). Repeat this two to four times (one immediately after another) and you will die. Your opponent will get a perfect in practice mode.
