'''Blade Beam''' ({{ja|破晄撃|Hakōgeki}}, ''Blasting Clear Strike'') is [[Cloud]]'s [[neutral special move]].

==Overview==

Cloud fires a green shockwave from his Buster Sword, using a rising sword slash. The initial sword slash has no hitbox and deals no damage, and the beam bursts on the first target it hits.

Blade Beam is Cloud's third Limit Break in ''Final Fantasy VII''. When used, Cloud fires a wave of energy that heavily damages one enemy and creates a shockwave that deals lesser damage to other enemies. Interestingly, in ''Final Fantasy VII'' and several other forms of ''Final Fantasy'' media, Cloud does a downward slash to activate Blade Beam as opposed to the upward slash seen in ''SSB4''.

==Trivia==

*When fired rightward onto the Great Fox's sharkfin on [[Corneria]], the beam will dissipate as if it struck a wall. This fin is otherwise easily walked onto.

*When Blade Beam's Limit Break version was demonstrated during the December 15, 2015 Final Video Presentation, it was mistakenly called a '''stonger attack''' instead of a '''stronger attack'''.
