'''Counter Slash''', also translated as '''Retaliating Slash''', is an ability introduced in ''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]''. It allows the user to perform an airborne counterattack.

==Mechanics==
In ''Kingdom Hearts II'', Retaliating Slash is an [[action ability]] that costs 3 {{AP}} to equip. It is an aerial finisher activated by pressing {{button|s}} after being knocked into the air. Unlike [[Aerial Recovery]], it does not provide invulnerability. When executed in [[Valor Form]] or [[Wisdom Form]], Sora will simply perform the basic aerial attack of those respective forms.
