Ryu using Late Kara canceling down smash into Shoryuken

Kara Canceling is an advanced technique introduced in update 7.0.0 of Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. It is exclusive to Ryu and Ken and allows the user to cancel the start-up frames of down smash or any aerial attack into a special move or command attack. This can be used as a mixup option for adding range to attacks to surprise the opponent. It is unknown if this is an intended feature for Ryu and Ken, or if it's a bug overlooked by development.
