Spinning Demon to Left Hook is one of several Command Input Special Moves exclusive to Kazuya.
Overview
The player must execute a → ↓ ↘ + special move input. This attack can only be activated with the special move button. If done successfully, Kazuya executes a low sweeping kick followed by a hook from his left hand. During this move, he has brief intangibility, making it useful for approach and pressure. It's also excellent for ending combos as a result of its high KO potential.
During the Rage status, the move can only be performed by tapping the special button for 5 frames or less, otherwise it will turn into the command version of Rage Drive.
Origin
Spinning Demon — also known as "Devil Spin" and colloquially referred to as a "hellsweep" — is a staple move in Mishima-style fighting karate, and is available to all Mishima family members in the Tekken series, although Jin Kazama only uses it in Tekken 3 and Tekken Tag Tournament. How many spins varies with the user, though. Kazuya follows up with left hook in Smash to match his optimal follow-up in Tekken 5 onwards, though this normally comes after a second hellsweep. Heihachi Mishima is the most well-known user of Spinning Demon, being the first user in the series; he is capable of chaining 3 of them and following up with Dragon Uppercut or Tsunami Kick.
