Warning red.pngREAD BEFORE EDITING:
  • Red-linked phrases should not be de-linked or pipe-linked if the phrase is from an official publication. Instead, please start an article or redirect at the link's target.
  • Technical info must be written in accordance with the consensus formats. Adding technical info without using these formats creates extra work for other editors and wastes everyone's time.
  • Trivia will be removed if it fails to meet the notability guidelines.
  • Do not source news to fansite translations of official publications or journals. Instead, source the publication or journal itself.
  • Based on the spelling used by the games, "Grey" is preferred over "Gray".
  • Entelechy is used here per its English definition, and is not meant to imply that it is an official term within the Kingdom Hearts franchise.
  • Do NOT add voice actors to a character's article UNLESS YOU HAVE A CLEAR SOURCE TO SUPPORT IT.

The first ground combo attack of [[Roxas]] and [[Xion]]'s [[Omega Weapon]] and the ground combo finishers of Roxas and Xion's [[Oathkeeper]] and [[Two Become One]] and Sora's [[Dream Sword]] resemble Zantetsuken.
While wielding the [[Oathkeeper]], [[Two Become One]], or [[Dream Sword]], the ground combo finisher is a Zantetsuken-like slash. The same Zantetsuken-like slash is used on the first attack of the [[Omega Weapon|Omega Weapon's]] combo.

Data-Sora's second ranged ground finish is an attack similar to Zantetsuken.
Data-Sora's second ranged ground finish is a Zantetsuken-like slash without the reverse grip twirl (just like the Zantetsuken itself in this game). Both this finisher and the original Zantetsuken oddly also have Sora slashing the opponent with the "blade" of the Keyblade, and not with the teeth.
==Origin==
In the ''{{ff|Final Fantasy (Series)|Final Fantasy}}'' series, {{nihongo|{{ff|Zantetsuken (ability)|Zantetsuken}}|斬鉄剣||lit. "Iron-cutting Sword"}} is the signature attack of the summon {{ff|Odin}}, and it is sometimes mimicked by {{ff|Gilgamesh (Character)|Gilgamesh}}. It typically inflicts Instant Death upon all enemies. It shares its name with a {{ff|Zantetsuken (Weapon)|recurring weapon}}. The term Zantetsuken is derived from a nickname given to swords crafted by Japanese swordsmith [https://books.google.com/books?id=BWy3gx-0PR8C&pg=PA136 Yasuhiro Kobayashi].
