TriviaEdit

  • Like Cloud's up aerial, the immediate auto-canceling of this move is a coding error caused by the wrong type of timing function being used. In the move's scripts, the hitboxes are deleted on frame 43, then a timer with a count of 37 is placed in the next line for the auto-cancel window. However, this is an asynchronous timer, which enables the auto-cancel on frame 37, rather than a synchronous timer, which would enable it 37 frames after the hitboxes are deleted (on frame 60). As a result, the auto-cancel is instead enabled on frame 43, as the line is still read after the timer for deleting the hitboxes.
    • A very similar error can be seen with Sonic's up aerial.
    • As this error was not addressed in any updates, it remains unknown whether the move's instant auto-canceling property was intentional or not. However, like with Cloud's up aerial, it was eventually fixed in Ultimate, where the move's auto-cancel properly uses an asynchronous timer on frame 46 (in addition to the hitboxes ending earlier, on frame 40).
