Axe Kick (アックスキック, Akkusukikku^?) is a POW move used by Sonic the Hedgehog in the game Sonic Chronicles: The Dark Brotherhood. When performing this move, Sonic Spin Dashes into an enemy and follows up with a powerful air-kick

DescriptionEdit

When performing the Axe Kick, Sonic runs up to the front of a single opponent and enters a Spin Dash. After charging his Spin Dash briefly, Sonic shoots himself straight into his opponent, striking his target hard, while enveloped in a light blue aura. As he rebounds from his target, Sonic sends himself back at his opponent and delivers an additional spinning double-kick to his target before jumping away.

Quick-Time EventEdit

When performing the Axe Kick in gameplay, the player has to complete a series of real-time events, by performing certain actions on the touchscreen, in order to execute the Axe Kick optimally:

1. The player has to stay inside the outer circle that appears when it overlaps the inner circle and follow it vertically across the screen.
2. The player has to touch two circles in succession, before the outer circles overlap the inner circles.

Missing or not touching these circles correctly will either result in Sonic missing a strike or the damage from the attack being reduced.
