Demonic Sword Rain (魔神千裂破 / 魔神千烈破 Majin Senretsuha?, "Demon God Thousand Fissure Destruction"[1]) is an arte in the Tales series that serves as a combination of the Demon Fang and Sword Rain: Alpha or Sword Rain artes.
Contents
Arte Description and History
This arte begins with the user sending out an energy wave and then stabbing the enemy multiple times before finishing with an upward slash. In every version of Tales of Phantasia, Cress Albane stabs multiple times before sending a energy wave. In Tales of Eternia, its requirements use the lower-tier arte Swarm instead, resulting the stabbing sequence being much shorter before finishing with a forward thrust.
In Cress Albane's version, the fourth kanji is "fissure" (裂?), whereas in Reid Hershel's version, the kanji is "intense" (烈?).
