Kibishiichiheisen

Momoko uses her sword mastery to slice an opponent in half. She adopts a readied stance, with her leaning forward and having her hand resting on her katana, baiting the enemy into charging or attacking. Once they are within range, the user would draw their blade quickly and cut the opponent across at the hips, with the aim to bifurcate them in two. Momoko refers to this technique as: "A most deadly trap."

The version used by Momoko's former sensei, Isamu Eiji, is similar to his pupil's but different in which that Isamu does not adopt a stance. Instead, he can execute the move from an unassuming posture, making it a very deadly technique when used by a master swordsman.
