'''Tatsumaki Senpukyaku''' ({{ja|竜巻旋風脚|Tatsumaki Senpūkyaku}}, ''Tornado Whirlwind Leg'') (or simply '''Tatsumaki''') is [[Ryu]] and [[Ken Masters|Ken]]'s [[side special move]]. The move involves Ryu spinning forwards like a top with one leg outstretched. When used on the ground, it will not go over ledges, despite Ryu appearing to be airborne. | |||
This move can be used as a decent horizontal [[recovery]] due to it slowing Ryu's fall while moving and not causing [[helpless]]ness (which gives him quite a good recovery if combined with [[Shoryuken]]), although the move can only be used once in midair. Additionally, it can be used to nullify [[projectile]]s. | |||
The move's distance and power goes up if the special button is held rather than just tapped; unheld, Ryu spins once and deals 8-9% damage, while he spins thrice and deals 12% if the button is held, with enough diagonal knockback to KO at 165%. | |||
The move | |||
If a player happens to use the Heavy Down Tilt and then input this move (by either Side B or Input), the ending lag cancels out and immediately makes Ryu use this move. The length concept is still used. A similar combo using the Light Down Tilt can be used for the Hadoken as well, although the Inputted one is usually the best to use. | |||

As with all of Ryu's special moves except for [[Focus Attack]], performing the move's original arcade input (down, down back, back, either attack button) will result in the attack gaining more power. When successfully performed, Ryu announces "Tatsumaki Senpukyaku!" if done on the ground, or "Tatsumaki!" if done in the air. Additionally, the wind effect around Ryu becomes more opaque while he spins, and a small spark flashes during the attack's first frame. | |||

If held, the move deals 13% damage with KO potential at 140%. It is a decent finisher for Ryu's standard attack combos, although there are better options (since the move is less powerful up close). | ||

In-universe, the practitioner forms an invisible ki-tornado below their non-kicking leg just after jumping in order to suspend them and make them spin. | ||
There was also a variation just known as the Senpuukyaku (Whirlwind Leg) used by both Ryu and his supposed evil counterpart, Akuma (Gouki in Japan), which was a command normal/unique art version that involved simply leaping with the back-spin kicking motion to kick once without any extra flight; however, that version was not used in all of both Ryu or Akuma's appearances. | There was also a variation just known as the Senpuukyaku (Whirlwind Leg) used by both Ryu and his supposed evil counterpart, Akuma (Gouki in Japan), which was a command normal/unique art version that involved simply leaping with the back-spin kicking motion to kick once without any extra flight; however, that version was not used in all of both Ryu or Akuma's appearances. | ||
In ''Street Fighter II: The World Warrior'', both Ryu and Ken's Tatsumaki Senpukyaku dealt a single hard-hitting hit, with the distance depending on the kick button pressed. The attack has the ability to phase through opposing projectiles and is one of the few special moves in the ''Street Fighter'' series that can be performed both on the ground and mid-jump, traits that are both carried over into ''Smash'' (the midair version in particular in later games is a staple cross-up attack for Tatsumaki | In ''Street Fighter II: The World Warrior'', both Ryu and Ken's Tatsumaki Senpukyaku dealt a single hard-hitting hit, with the distance depending on the kick button pressed.

Ken's Tatsumaki Senpukyaku diversified in ''Street Figher II: Champion Edition'', dealing multiple weak hits as opposed to one strong hit, while more fighters showed the ability to use variations of the Tatsumaki Senpukyaku technique, including Akuma and Gouken. In many of those cases, the hitbox for the move often varies, as in older games it was possible to duck underneath the Tatsumaki due to the height of the said hitbox(es); later games often make it impossible to do so. | Ken's Tatsumaki Senpukyaku diversified in ''Street Figher II: Champion Edition'', dealing multiple weak hits as opposed to one strong hit, while more fighters showed the ability to use variations of the Tatsumaki Senpukyaku technique, including Akuma and Gouken.

The only time the Tatsumaki Senpukyaku used by Ryu was not done in the usual form was mainly in the ''Street Fighter EX'' series, where it becomes a multi-input special with swinging spin kicks in midair ending with a turning heel drop. | The only time the Tatsumaki Senpukyaku used by Ryu was not done in the usual form was mainly in the ''Street Fighter EX'' series, where it becomes a multi-input special with swinging spin kicks in midair ending with a turning heel drop. | ||
