Hadoken (or sometimes called Hadouken) is Ryu's neutral special in Super Smash Bros. 4. This move appears to involve Ryu charging up and releasing a large energy projectile.

Origin

Hadoken is one of Ryu and Ken's special moves in the Street Fighter series. It involves the user thrusting their palms forward to fire a blue fireball projectile, or a surge of spirit energy, or Ki. It is normally performed by the player moving the joystick or D-pad a quarter circle forward towards the opponent from the down position, then pressing a punch button. The creator of Street Fighter, Takashi Nishiyama, credits the 1970s anime Space Battleship Yamato as the inspiration of Hadoken, based off of a missile called Hadouho.
