Some recommendations:

-Hell Spiral and Astral Dive are THE best BAs for Short Blade, maybe even in the game. The damage numbers you'll be pulling with those can't be matched by ANYTHING ELSE in the game, especially if you aim right with Astral Dive and hit a broken weak point (optional: while in Blood Rage), and especially also since you no longer need to be at 40% HP or lower to use Hell Spiral. Get the TSH1-Bariol for HS and watch those parts break like toothpicks.

-Infinite Katana: Azure doesn't have to be reset with ZS between combos. You can also dash (with circle) and that will maintain the combo and the azure edge. Useful if you don't want to have to stop using the BA, chase after a fleeing foe, and lose your multiplier in the process.

-Riot Swing deserves mention for Buster Blade as it ignores defense to a degree and grants superarmor. Those two factors IMO push it above Crack Wave/Crush Wave (how did we end up with "Crush" from クラック, anyway?)
