Cartwheel

Cartwheel (ホイールロール, Hoīru Rōru, lit. "Wheel Roll") is a technique in Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep, Kingdom Hearts 0.2 Birth by Sleep -A fragmentary passage-, and Kingdom Hearts III. It allows the user to evade attacks by literally cartwheeling across ground. Cartwheel is different from Dodge Roll and Slide, in that it gives a long invincibility time when the animation is being performed, rather than just moving.
