Description[]
Executed by performing two quarter-circle motions and pressing all three kicks, Hokuto draws out a flaming naginata and slams it violently on the ground, creating a powerful shockwave near the opponent and burning them while launching them away.
The intensity and damage also varies between the opponent and Hokuto's distance. The opponent needs to be considerably distant for the damage of the attack to be at it's highest.
Tactics[]
This attack can be used as a counter to normals and specials as Hokuto has invincibility frames on activation. The range from Shirase Gatana can also be used to beat attacks from a distance,
