The Tsurigane Otoshi is one of Old Zeku's throws in Street Fighter V.

Description[]
Executed by pressing Light Punch and Light Kick, (the throw command) near an opponent. Zeku first delivers a knee strike to his opponent's midsection, forcing them to bend over. As they recover, Zeku grabs his opponent by the face and lifts them in the air. Finally, he sweeps the opponent's leg with his own leg to them to the ground. If no directional input or button is pressed, Zeku spins and poses before dropping back to his stance.
Tactics[]
This move is good for pressure his opponent and for gaining momentum. While this throw inflicts less damage and stun than his back throw, it leaves him somewhat close to his opponent. Because of the spacing after the throw, Zeku gets better okizeme. He can fish for Crush Counters with Standing Hard Punch to beat out 3-frame normals. If he suspect that his opponent is blocking, he can dash forward and continue throwing his opponent again in a pseudo-throw loop. This is especially effective in the corner. By conditioning them to tech throws or respond on wake-up, Zeku can open up his opponent for even bigger damage.
