'''Darkness Illusion''' ({{ja|ダークネスイリュージョン|Dākunesu Iryūjon}}, ''Darkness Illusion'') is {{SSBU|Meta Knight}}'s [[Final Smash]] in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''. It replaces [[Galaxia Darkness]] from ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. 4]]''.

==Overview==
==Overview==
When activated, Meta Knight gains an extra pair of wings, lifts his sword, says "Know my power!" ({{ja|思い知れ|Omoishire}}, ''You shall realize.'') or "Behold..." ({{ja|見るがいい!|Mirugaī!}}, ''Behold!''), and summons a lightning bolt that creates a cross-shaped burst. If he traps anyone, he'll then proceed to slice the opponent at multiple angles, finishing with a final hit that launches the opponent sideways with a different camera angle if the attack was gained from a Smash Ball rather than through a meter; if the Final Smash is gained via a meter, the final hit will slow down opponents not caught in the attack.

If he traps anyone, he'll then proceed to slice the opponent at multiple angles, similar to [[Great Aether]], finishing with a final hit that launches the opponent sideways with a different camera angle if all opponents are caught.

This move resembles {{s|wikirby|Upper Calibur}}, a move Meta Knight uses in ''{{s|wikirby|Kirby Star Allies}}'' and ''{{s|wikirby|Kirby and the Forgotten Land}}'', with the addition of the extra wings and a flash of lightning as opposed to an ascending slash. The pose Meta Knight takes when summoning his sword is a pose commonly associated with opponents of his type, appearing as either a mere up stab or as a summoning act. The cross-lightning both resembles Meta Knight infused with the Zap element in ''Kirby Star Allies'' and the animation for [[Mach Tornado]] in ''{{s|wikirby|Kirby Super Star Ultra}}''. The pose he takes after landing the final strike resembles his ''{{s|wikirby|Kirby Air Ride}}'' render.

Darkness Illusion also bears a resemblance to {{s|wikipedia|Morrigan Aensland}}'s own attack of the same name from the [[Capcom]]-produced fighting game ''{{s|wikipedia|Darkstalkers}}''. Both involve launching the opponent upwards, assaulting them from multiple angles, then sending them away in a final blow.

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
*The final slash of Darkness Illusion features an incredibly high [[hitlag]] multiplier of 100, which is somewhat redundant due to hitlag being capped at 30 frames.  
*Darkness Illusion bears a resemblance to {{s|wikipedia|Morrigan Aensland}}'s own attack of the same name from the [[Capcom]]-produced fighting game ''{{s|wikipedia|Darkstalkers}}''. Both involve launching the opponent upwards, assaulting them with a clone, then sending them away in a final blow.
**Additionally, as the final slash is programmed to cause a brief [[slow motion]] effect, victims are launched more slowly, which notably makes the move easier to tech if the victim is sent towards a wall (such as on [[Mementos]]).
