Input
All appearances Arcade-Stick-Right+Arcade-Button-MPunch

Description[]

Executed by pressing forward and Medium Punch, Oro spins toward his opponent and delivers a back fist strike. If no directional input or button is pressed after the throw, Oro briefly plays with his turtle before returning to his stance.

Tactics[]

This move is one of Oro's mid-range normals. It slightly moves him forward and can be used to out-poke his opponent. It can also be used to keep his opponent at a distance. Even though it has a 10-frame startup, Oro can cancel Kaeshi Genkotsu into his special moves like Nioh Riki, his second V-Skill, or into V-Trigger for frame advantage. If Oro hits his opponent with EX Tsuranekeashi, he can link Kaeshi Genkotsu to continue the combo for more additional damage. While this move is -4 on block, it can be difficult for his opponent to punish if spaced correctly.
