Grand Cross (グランドクロス, Grand Cross) is Simon and Richter's Final Smash.

Overview

A large coffin appears in front of Simon/Richter, trapping fighters within it. The user then grabs the coffin with his chain whip, and tosses it up in the air, under the moonlight, before unleashing multiple energy crosses from underneath to attack with.

Origin

Richter using Grand Cross in the opening to Rondo of Blood.

The Grand Cross's appearance in Ultimate is specifically based on its appearance in Rondo of Blood, where it was an Item Crash attack. Richter can equip the Cross as his sub-weapon and spend fifteen hearts to use Grand Cross. Item Crash attacks are typically very damaging and cover a wide area, not unlike some Final Smashes, but in Smash, the move is used as part of a trap and does not cover the stage. The energy like appearance may be inspired by how it appeared in Aria of Sorrow and Dawn of Sorrow.
