Time Stop

Stop Flow (タイムストップ) is a very powerful spell, though it is rarely used by playable characters. As the name suggests, it stops the enemies' time, making the characters able to lay numbers of hits on them before they can move again.

Arte Description and History
When this arte is used, it usually shows some kind of clock on the screen, where the arrows go one or two rounds before it stops, making the time for the enemies on the battlefield do the same. Although it is a useful spell if used well, it is more often used by enemies as a Mystic Arte than playable characters. It does, however, exist rare items that allows the time to freeze in battle, but these items are not in many games.
