This jutsu is a variant of Rock Lee's Front Lotus, which Sasuke develops after using his Sharingan to copy the first part of the move. Because Lee wasn't given the chance to finish the attack, Sasuke makes his own ending to it. Like Lee, Sasuke gets to the point where he does Shadow of the Dancing Leaf to get behind an airborne opponent. He then delivers a series of blows that differ between use. All variations end with the opponent being thrown to the ground and kicked in the chest.

Trivia

  • In the Clash of Ninja series, Kakashi can perform this jutsu by copying it with his Sharingan.
  • In the anime, the series of blows differ each time the technique is used.
  • In the manga, Sasuke is seen using this jutsu before the preliminary rounds of the Chūnin Exams, as shown in Karin's flashback. This could mean that he copied the moves and fit them together when Front Lotus was about to be used on him.
