—Description from Ultimate's Move List |
Eiha (エイハ, Eiha) is Joker's side special move in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.
Overview
When activated, Joker snaps his fingers, and sends out a small projectile with an explosive area of effect. The projectile doesn't do much damage, but will cause the opponent to become cursed, taking damage over time. If Arsene is currently out when the move is used, Joker instead uses Eigaon (エイガオン, Eigaon), a more powerful projectile that hits multiple times, and causes the curse to last longer than usual, as well as dealing slightly more damage.
Origin
Eiha and Eigaon are Curse element moves in Persona 5. Eiha is the basic form of the attack, and Eigaon is the most powerful single-target form. Notably, Arsene can learn Eiha but cannot normally learn Eigaon; however, Arsene has access to it in the first battle done in the story's prologue and can inherit it from other Personas. The lingering damage effect is not present in Persona 5, though it may be a reference to the spell's appearance in Revelations: Persona, where it deals persistent damage to the targeted enemy.
