Bowser (SSBM)/Back aerial

Hitbox visualization showing Bowser's back aerial.

Overview

Bowser thrusts his shell backwards. It is a viable edgeguarding option due to being a semi-spike. It has similar sex kick properties. It has quite high base knockback, making it a good tool for getting a low/mid percent gimp.
