Description

Dan finishing off  with an uppercut using Shisso Buraiken.

Dan finishing off Cammy with an uppercut using Shisso Buraiken.

Executed by performing two quarter-circle forward motions and pressing all three punch buttons, Dan dashes towards the opponent. If he misses or is blocked, he trips and roll along the floor.

If not blocked, the camera shifts to a cinematic angle, and a drumroll plays as punches his opponent in the face, proceeding to launch a barrage of blows; a gong sounds as he finishes with a Koryuken for an 8-hit combo. As he lands, he performs his trademark pose: smiling broadly at the "camera" with a sparkling sound effect (of his teeth glowing white), giving a thumbs up gesture and sticking his rear end out.

Tactics

Unlike the Hissho Buraiken, the attack has a wide range (about the length of Dan's heavy punch Gadoken) and may misses if performed at any distance farther than that, or if the opponent has almost hit the ground (during a Focus Attack crumple, Dan can still connect if his opponent's torso is a centimeter from hitting the ground, though the timing is tricky if done from a back dash).

As with most Ultra Combos, the move is a good punisher, and can also pass through projectiles with proper timing, as Dan is temporarily invincible during the forward rush. Missing the attack leaves Dan open for a considerable amount of time, leaving him vulnerable. In Ultra Street Fighter IV, the move gains Armor Breaking properties, allowing a player to punish Focus Attacks with it.

Trivia

  • Ironically, this attack is parodied by Yuri Sakazaki in The King of Fighters XIV with her Chou! Ryuuko Ranbu, with Yuri performing similar exaggerated attacks, ending in an uppercut and a thumbs-up. As the Shisso Buraiken was already a parody of Ryo Sakazaki's Ryuuko Ranbu, this makes Yuri's version a parody of a parody.
