Kairyuu Shourin

Kairyuu Shourin (Sea Dragon Shining Confront), AKA Leviathan's Strain, is one of Jin Chonshu's Super Special Moves in Fatal Fury series.

Description
Chonshu floats up a bit to conjure an array of 4 energy dragons from behind himself, launching them at his foe via throwing them forward as they travel from above his head towards the front. Chonshu avoids low attacks during the floating period.

In Real Bout Fatal Fury 2, it is Chonshu's P. Power Super (requires full meter and low HP), while in Neo Geo Battle Coliseum it merely costs 2 power stocks to use.

Despite the move's hitbox, it does not seem to reach full-screen, making this only a strong mid-ranged punisher. Even then, the attack can also completely consume projectiles while also being immune to negation itself.

Strategy
This move backed by Chonshu's other tools, leads to him being one of the more notable top tiers in the metagame of Real Bout 2, given he has many ways to land this attack despite it being awkward to land during a juggle.

On the inverse however, while Chonshu can feint this attack only in RBFF2 with +, it is one of de facto most un-viable feints in the game for feint cancelling due Chonshu floating up (while able to avoid lows) and having a notable amount of recovery during the fake-out animation. As a result, unlike most characters, the feint version of Kairyuu Shourin is unable to assist in furthering Chonshu's already-decent pressure game and makes him extremely punishable if used in a heated moment.

However, likely due to Chonshu's infamy as a top tier in RBFF2, the attack's damage has seen a notable nerf in NGBC.
