{{InfoAbility
{{nihongo|'''Zantetsuken'''|ザンテツケン}} is an ability which appears in ''[[Kingdom Hearts Final Mix]]'', ''[[Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories]]'', ''[[Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix]]'', and "[[Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep]]". It consists of holding the Keyblade tip-backwards, then performing a single powerful slash through the opponent's body so quickly that the cut doesn't appear until after the technique is finished. It is usually a ground combo finisher, and can defeat minor enemies in a single hit. In ''Kingdom Hearts Final Mix'' it requires 2 AP to equip, while in ''Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix'' it is only available while using [[Limit Form]]. In ''Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories'', the damage it inflicts is sharply reduced, and instead it is able to break the opponent's card and render it unreloadable.

'''Zantetsuken''' is a technique introduced in ''[[Kingdom Hearts Final Mix]]''. It allows the user to execute a single, impossibly fast [[Keyblade]] strike, usually dealing a devastating amount of damage.
 
==Mechanics==
In ''Kingdom Hearts Final Mix'', Zantetsuken is a [[combat ability]] that costs 2 {{AP}} to equip. It gives [[Sora]] a 30% chance to deliver a ground combo finisher that deals {{c|Percentage|element}} damage equivalent to 250% of the enemy's HP, and always inflicts a [[Critical Hit]]. After hitting the target, Sora takes 1.1 seconds to recover.
 
In ''[[Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories]]'', Zantetsuken is an [[attack sleight]] that renders the opponent's cards unreloadable if it is used to break them, no matter if it hits or misses, and deals a small amount of damage. The unreloadable cards may still be restored through [[Item card]]s such as Elixirs, however.<!--https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G5STf_mgwX0-->
 
In ''[[Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix]]'', Zantetsuken is an [[action ability]] available in [[Limit Form]]. It is a ground combo finisher that activates when Sora is attacking a single target. It is three times as strong as a normal finisher, making it the most powerful single-hitting attack available to Sora, although it eats up an entire Form Gauge without [[Form Boost]] equipped. The [[Zantetsu Counter]] ability allows Sora to use it as a counterattack during a successful Guard.<!--https://docs.google.com/document/d/10-XkqDEOKRMwXfVVMh9I52bYxRI-B3MG5SAqaQ1EZns/edit?usp=sharing-->
 
[[File:Ultimate KHREC.png]] In ''[[Kingdom Hearts Re:coded]]'', Zantetsuken is an {{c|attack command|RCO}} that has a memory consumption of 22% and a normal reload time of 25 seconds. On top of its high critical hit rate, it deals 50% more added damage than normal when dealing a critical hit and boosts the Clock Gauge 50% more than usual. If the [[Zantetsu Prime]] ability is active, Zantetsuken will destroy non-boss enemies in a single stroke if a critical hit is dealt, tripling the normal Clock Gauge boost if successful. If used in midair, Data-Sora will return to the ground before performing the attack.
 
In ''[[Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep]]'', Zantetsuken is an Ultimate {{c|attack command|BBS}} exclusive to [[Terra]] that may destroy enemies in a single stroke. It takes up one slot in the Command Deck, has a maximum level of 5 and a normal reload time of 20 seconds, and fills the Command Gauge by 40%.
 
In ''Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance'', Zantetsuken is an {{c|attack command|DDD}} exclusive to [[Riku]] that has a chance to defeat enemies in one stroke. It takes up two slots in the Command Deck and has a reload time of 32 seconds. It grants +4 to [[Strength]] when attached to a [[Dream Eater]] recipe. When used, there is a 50% chance that Zantetsuken's instant kill effect will be activated, indicated by the surroundings darkening and the weapon glowing. Enemies without Zantetsuken resistance will be defeated with a single blow, while enemies with Zantetsuken resistance instead take a 1.6 power neutral damage attack. <!-- (what version of the game?) Activating and landing a failed Zantetsuken as a Portal's time limit expires or when exiting the portal manually can sometimes cause the game to freeze.-->
 
In ''Kingdom Hearts Union χ'', Zantetsuken is a [[special attack]] that targets all enemies. It costs 2 special attack gauges to perform. It inflicts more damage the lower {{c|Player|KHχ}}'s HP.
 
In ''[[Kingdom Hearts III]]'', Zantetsuken is an action ability exclusive to [[Light Form]] and [[Dark Form]]. It is both forms' first ground combo finisher.

While wielding the [[Oathkeeper]], [[Two Become One]], or [[Dream Sword]], the ground combo finisher is a Zantetsuken-like slash.
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.
===''Kingdom Hearts II]''===
When Sora enters Xemnas' rendition of Kingdom Hearts, there is a large building blocking his path. By using a reaction command, Sora does an attack that takes inspiration from Zanetsuken, as sora passes through the building (accompanied by slashing soundeffects), the screen flashes, sora comes out, eyes closed. when he opens them, the building is divided and falls apart, similar to what happens in Zanetsuken.

"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}}.
