Well, I created this guide to help out future players or old players who not yet finish the game due to the confusion on controls.
This guide is about the gameplay basic & keyboard control as the instructions in loading screen is not using the description / function of each button.
Keyboard Button
Important keys
Q button = Refresh weapon
R button = Lock on target
V button = (press) Evade / (hold) Sprint
K button = Jump
I button = Light attack
O button = Strong attack
L button = Sub weapon attack
X button = Camera Reset
Arrow keypad Up/Down = Change character
Arrow keypad Left/Right = Change vamp skill / ecstasy combo (the blue small bar with skill icons)

Mapping
Keyboard vs Loading Screen explanation
Q button = LB
R button = RB
K button = A
I button = X
O button = Y
L button = B
Numpad 2 = Right stick
X button = Left stick
Q + R buttons – (LB + RB) to perform Cross Merge combination
O + L buttons – (Y + B) to perform Ectasy Combo / Vamp Skill
2 + X buttons – (Right stick + Left stick) Transform to Berserk mode
I + K buttons – (X + A) Blood Recovery (Kagura and Saaya only) which uses the red bar for transformation to regenerate HP
