Meteor Break

«Meteor Break» (メテオ・ブレイク) is a 7-hit Combo Sword Skill, which utilizes both One-handed Straight Sword and Martial Arts techniques, in Sword Art Online, New ALfheim Online and Project Alicization.

Description
The first strike of the 7-hit combo is a strong, downward strike to the right. Afterwards, the user twists their wrist and swings the sword back up, retracing the trajectory of the first strike with a motion similar to a golf club’s swing. Then, going against the expectation of monster opponents, the user rams the target with their left shoulder, instead of swinging downwards with their sword again. This tackle is followed by a vertical swing at the swaying target and another tackle with the user’s right shoulder. Finally, the skill is concluded with a horizontal slash from right to left, aimed at the target’s neck.

Usage

 * Volume 1 Chapter 9/Episode 8:
 * Kirito uses this Sword Skill to finish off a Demonic Servant.
 * Volume 13 Chapter 10:
 * Eugeo used this skill to ram Bercouli, after deceiving him by using an icicle instead of his sword to distract him, and thus forced Bercouli to land in the partially frozen bath, where Eugeo could finish his Blue Rose Sword's special ability.

Trivia

 * «Meteor Break», along with «Meteor Fall», are the only known Sword Skill that combines the usage of a sword and unarmed fighting skills and both of the two have "meteor" in the skill's name.
 * The anime only portrays the initial move of the skill, but does not show the remaining 6 hits.
 * Although it is said that the skill is a 7-hit combo, only 6 moves have been described. Most likely an error on the author’s part.
 * Meteor Break also appears as a part of Kirito's move list in Dengeki Bunko Fighting Climax, being a special move that is an extra input/followup special after his Horizontal Square.
