Cross Slash is Cloud's second Limit Break in ''Final Fantasy VII'', which he learns after performing his initial Limit Break, Braver, eight times. It deals 3.25 times the damage of a normal physical attack to one enemy and inflicts paralysis. The usual animation for the attack shows him performing three strikes as opposed to the four strokes needed to write the kanji (''Smash Bros.'' instead has him perform a total of five slashes). However, in some instances, such as in the ''Kingdom Hearts'' series, the kanji visual may be absent.
Also in some forms of media (such as in the ''Kingdom Hearts'' series and even ''Final Fantasy VII'' itself), the name is written with a hyphen ("Cross-slash").

The [[Limit Break]] version of the move involves Cloud unleashing the entire sequence at high speed, regardless of whether it hits anything or whether the player makes additional inputs. These slashes deal much more damage (26% total) and greater knockback than the base version of the move, with the final hit's hitbox also becoming slightly larger.<ref>[https://twitter.com/ruben_dal/status/859110965501206528?lang=en]</ref> The camera will also zoom in on the hit fighter if the final hit connects while time slows down for a split second, similar to {{SSB4|Little Mac}}'s [[KO Uppercut]]. As Limit Cross Slash possesses very fast startup, a large hitbox, surprisingly low ending lag, and deals high [[shield damage]], it is often considered one of Cloud's most effective and all-purpose Limit Break special moves.
