English term or phrase: whiffed attack
Upon reaching MAX, the gauge will be stocked (the number next to the gauge indicates the stock count).
*Whiffed or canceled projectile attacks will not add to your Power Gauge.
This gauge will increase every time you land, block, or take a hit.

Unlike the power gauge, it can be used once it’s 50％ full.
