Omnislash
Omnislash is a recurring technique associated with Cloud. It allows the user to fly around, repeatedly slashing opponents.
Mechanics[edit]
In Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories, Omnislash is a Summon Sleight. It summons Cloud to the battlefield, whereupon he flies across the field, periodically slashing at enemies. In the original game, if no target is present on the field, the sleight will cancel itself. In Kingdom Hearts Re:Chain of Memories, additional attacks are added by pressing when prompted. Pressing at the wrong time will cancel the sleight.
In Kingdom Hearts Re:coded, Omnislash is a special attack used by Cloud in the Labyrinth. Cloud will warp in front of an enemy and slash it four times, randomly switching to another enemy. The last slash follows with two finishing strikes on the same enemy.
In Kingdom Hearts Union χ, Omnislash is a special attack that targets all enemies. It costs 2 special attack gauges to perform. It inflicts more damage the higher the player's HP.

Other appearances[edit]
Kingdom Hearts[edit]
Cloud uses Omnislash while fighting Sora. He will first generate an aura of red electricity around himself while spreading his wing, and then will float into the air and glide across the arena, attempting to slash at Sora five times, before returning to normal.
Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories[edit]
Cloud can use Omnislash as a Sleight while fighting Sora. In Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories, he flies around, slashing at Sora 3 times. In Kingdom Hearts Re:Chain of Memories, Cloud flies away, approaches Sora, and slashes before flying away again, for a total of 5 times.
Kingdom Hearts II[edit]
Cloud can use Omnislash when assisting Sora at the Ravine Trail, and when fought in the Underdrome. As an ally, Cloud flies around, slashing at enemies. As an enemy, Cloud covers himself in a fighting spirit and swings his sword above his head, before flying around at high-speed, repeatedly slashing, and ends the attack with a downward thrust.
Kingdom Hearts Re:coded[edit]
Cloud uses Omnislash while fighting Sora and Hercules. He deals 6 fast hits while occasionally switching target.
Origin[edit]
Omnislash is the signature attack of Cloud Strife, and his strongest Limit Break in Final Fantasy VII. The technique often involves a series of many rapid-frenzy slashes mid-flight ending with a downward slamming strike.
