given that parrying in SF is different from powershielding in Smash, I'm not so sure that this should link to that in that context

The Shippu Jinraikyaku is a series of rapid kicks, finishing with an airborne [[Tatsumaki Senpukyaku]]. It was first introduced as the third of his Super Arts in the ''Street Fighter III'' series, and has since appeared in ''Street Fighter Alpha 3'', ''Ultra Street Fighter IV OMEGA Mode'', ''Street Fighter X Tekken'', the ''Capcom vs. SNK'' series, and the ''Marvel vs. Capcom'' series. In some of these games, it is Ken's strongest technique, requiring most or all of his available meter to perform. | The Shippu Jinraikyaku is a series of rapid kicks, finishing with an airborne [[Tatsumaki Senpukyaku]].

This moment, colloquially referred to as "{{s|wikipedia|Evo Moment 37}}", was even referenced in Ken's reveal trailer, where Ken perfect shields {{SSBU|Little Mac}}'s attack and then follows up with Shippu Jinraikyaku. This is further referenced by his pose when initiating the move, which resembles the pose for parrying in ''Street Fighter III'', as well as the lightning bolt effect at the beginning of the move, which is taken from ''Street Fighter III: 3rd Strike''. | ||
