Is there a difference between jump kick and hi jump kick?

Question

If jump kick is avoided do you take damage?
What are the differences beside the names?

Comments

Power, accuracy, and name (but not by much)

Answer 1

Jump Kick (100 BP, 95 Acc.)

>Jump Kick deals damage, however, if it misses the user keeps going and crashes, losing 1⁄2 of its maximum HP. High Jump Kick cannot be used if Gravity is in effect.

High Jump Kick (130 BP, 90 Acc.)

>High Jump Kick deals damage, however, if it misses the user keeps going and crashes, losing 1⁄2 of its maximum HP. High Jump Kick cannot be used if Gravity is in effect.

So the difference between JK and HJK is 5 accuracy points and 30 base power. That's about it.
