Min Min

Min Min is a playable fighter in ARMS. She is a Chinese martial artist who battles to promote her family's ramen restaurant.

Appearance
Min Min appears mostly human except for her spiraled irises and her ramen-like hair and ARMS. She has green eyes, blonde hair with straight-cut bangs and a fringe, along with an orange mask. Slices of narutomaki (a Japanese processed fish product sometimes found in ramen) are attached to the upper part of her noodle arms. When fully charged, her left noodle arm transforms into a dragon. She wears an orange beanie shaped like an upside-down ramen bowl, an orange athletic shirt, orange athletic shorts, black calf-length leggings, and green sneakers. Other outfits she wears includes a chef-like version of her outfit consisting of an orange shirt with a small bowtie on the collar, matching shorts and orange leggings as well as an apron with her logo on it and black flat shoes, a white sweater revealing blue bra or undershirt straps and blue jeans along with two of her badges pinned to her hat, as well as a dark orange kimono with white fur on the top, a yellow bow in the back, and a pair of black zōri (Japanese sandals) with orange straps. She's also shown to wear her hair in a ponytail with a green hairband and into a loose bun held by a green chopstick with a narutomaki on it.

Abilities
Min Min can execute a kick when dashing backwards on the ground or in any direction while in the air which knocks down oncoming attacks. By charging her ARMS for longer than usual or successfully completing a throw, Min Min can transform her left arm into a dragon. While in dragon form, the equipped ARM will significantly increase in size and remain charged indefinitely until Min Min is knocked down (also if Min Min is frozen, or has the left arm disabled), losing the dragon arm.

Playstyle
Min Min's dragon ARM becoming permanently charged unless she's knocked down means that she is able to constantly put on mobile pressure, that for other characters would be limited to only a few seconds. Players should use her deflect kicks to deny knockdowns, while being using her charge ARM to bully and harass the opponent constantly, whether up close or at range.

ARM Recommendations
ARMS that put on notable amounts of pressure and control when specifically when charged fit the Ramen Bomber well, because she almost always has a charged ARM. These are good choices:
