Orochi performs a technique akin to this during his Top Light combo.
Modern depictions of the technique involve a downward strike, quickly followed by an upwards one.Tsubame Gaeshi roughly means 'Swallow Reversal' or 'Turning Swallow Strike', referencing its fame for being able to cut a swallow mid-flight."Tsubame Gaeshi" is reference to the infamous technique of master swordsman Kojirō Sasaki."eight aspect stance") for their side guards.

When putting up a guard, Orochi utilizes the " jōdan-no-kamae" (上段の構え lit.Orochi is currently the only assassin Hero who uses a single weapon all other assassin Heroes either dual wield weapons (two axes for Berserker, two kusarigama for Shinobi, two hook swords for Nuxia) or have a primary weapon with a secondary in the off-hand (sword and dagger for Peacekeeper, trident and buckler for Gladiator, hatchet and dagger for Shaman).With the introduction of the Shinobi, the Orochi assumes the more aggressive face of the ninja fantasy, whereas the Shinobi is the more stealthy counterpart.This is referenced in the Orochi intro trailer, which states how their existence was influenced by the mythical ninja clans.As fast, agile warriors with the ability to use weapons like the kunai and smoke bomb, the Orochi effectively assumes the role traditionally associated with the ninja in games and pop culture.The word Orochi (Kanji: 大蛇) means serpent in Japanese, which refers to a mythical eight-headed serpent named Yamata no Orochi.All accounts of Japanese wood armor predated the Samurai, as by the time of the Samurai, they were using lamellar and plate armor. Though the Orochi's armor is made of wood, historical Samurai never wore wood armor.The default armor the Orochi wears is identical to Tosei dou gusoku: Samurai plate armor.This plate was reintroduced with a new gear look added in the Marching Fire update, meant to be a tribute to the pre-release appearance.Along with their name, details of their armor have been changed, most noticeably the lack of the panel of plate armor that hung over the back of the Oni's left shoulder. During early versions of the game, prior to its release, the Orochi was known as the Oni.They are made of laminated steel of the highest quality and are often honored as family heirlooms that warriors pass down to their firstborn.
Weapon Katana - The katana is the archetypal single-edge curved sword of the samurai of the Dawn Empire. Their dull gray mempo is simplistic and covers their mouth and nose, with dashes of tan paint that gives the image of sharp teeth. They wear a traditional kabuto, though it lacks any sort of tehen kanamono or decorative crest. Usually loyal beyond reproach, the Orochi holds the darker samurai secrets of dealing death in myriad ways, from throwing deadly knives to using a poisoned blade.Ī perfect balance between flexibility and strength, the default armor is composed of laqured wood that cover most of the body with worn leather and cloth underneath. Lightly armored and trained in the arts of stealth and deception, the Orochi dispatches enemies with a katana. They roam the battlefield like ghosts, terrorizing and slaughtering those unfortunate enough to cross their path. For the single player campaign character, see: The Orochi
