Vertical Square

«Vertical Square» (バーチカル・スクエア) is a 4-hit Combo One-Handed Sword category Sword Skill in Sword Art Online, New ALfheim Online and Project Alicization.

Description
«Vertical Square» is activated with a powerful stamp. The first strike of this Sword Skill is a vertical slash without a backward motion, similar to the 1-hit «Vertical». This slash is followed by a left to right swing from below and then a vertical slash down. Finally, the skill is concluded with a full-power overhead slash (uppercut). Similarly to the «Horizontal Square», a square is drawn with the 4 hits of this skill and continues to spin as it dissipates.

Trivia

 * Vertical Square is one of Kirito's favourite Sword Skills.
 * The first season of the anime portrays Vertical Square as more of a diagonal or even horizontal square, despite it having "vertical" in its name.
 * In the anime adaptation of Calibur, Kirito used Horizontal Square instead of Vertical Square.
 * In the updated version of Dengeki Bunko Fighting Climax, known as «Dengeki Bunko Fighting Climax Ignition», Konno Yuuki uses Vertical Square as one of her special moves.
