Sacred Arrow (セイクリッドアロー, Sacred Arrow) is Mythra's Final Smash in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.

Overview

Mythra summons Rex, who performs an underhand slash to transition into a cutscene. In the cutscene, Mythra and Rex hold the Aegis Sword together and point it into the sky to summon a beam of light. Transitioning into normal gameplay, they point the Aegis forward to rain smaller beams of light from the sky down onto the opponents, before Rex fires a light beam from his sword to finish the move.

Origin

In Xenoblade Chronicles 2, Sacred Arrow is Mythra's Level IV Blade Special. The move's animation in Smash is a recreation of its animation in battles in Xenoblade Chronicles 2.

Trivia

  • Burning Sword and Sacred Arrow are the first Final Smashes that start off with a cinematic but the move ends in-game. The opposite holds true for Infernal Climax.
  • They are also the first Final Smashes from a Fighters Pass character to contain non-cinematic elements in it, and the second DLC character overall with this distinction, following Petey Piranha.
