Tsujikaze

«Tsujikaze» (辻風) is a 1-hit Katana category Sword Skill in Sword Art Online, New ALfheim Online and Project Alicization.

Description
«Tsujikaze» is a straight, long-ranged, Iai-type skill. After a short period of "charging", the user executes a diagonal slash from bottom-left to top-right at such a speed that it is impossible for the human eye to keep track of the sword.

The skill is activated by lowering a katana-type weapon to the user's left hip. The skill takes some time before it activates, which is the only time that the opponent has to prepare a counter-attack, as it the skill is too fast once it initiates.

Usage

 * Progressive Volume 1 Chapter 1 Part 14/Episode 2:
 * Illfang the Kobold Lord activates this skill as Kirito and Asuna attempt to approach it. Kirito blocks the skill with «Rage Spike», giving Asuna a quick opening to strike the creature with «Linear».


 * Volume 8, Caliber Part 4:
 * Klein uses this skill to break the ice cage holding Freyja.

Trivia

 * The anime depicts the skill as having a white/light blue colour effect, instead of a green one.
