Zantetsuken (ザンテツケン Zantetsuken) is a technique introduced in Kingdom Hearts Final Mix. It allows the user to execute a single, impossibly fast Keyblade strike, usually dealing a devastating amount of damage.
Mechanics
In Kingdom Hearts Final Mix, Zantetsuken is a combat ability that costs 2 AP to equip. It is a ground combo finisher that activates 30% of the time. It deals percentage-based Gravity damage equivalent to 250% of the enemy's HP. After hitting the target, Sora takes 34 frames to recover (1.1 seconds).
In Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories, Zantetsuken is an attack sleight that renders the opponent's cards unreloadable if it is used to break them, but only deals a small amount of damage. The unreloadable cards may still be restored through Item cards such as Elixirs, however. Of note is that the attack does not actually need to land for the broken card or cards to be affected. Its card combination is:
+ + (0 or 27).

In Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix, Zantetsuken is an action ability available in Limit Form. It is a combo finisher that activates when Sora is attacking a single target. It is three times as strong as a normal finisher, making it the most powerful single-hitting attack available to Sora.
In Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep, Zantetsuken is an Ultimate attack command exclusive to Terra that may destroy enemies in a single stroke. It takes up one slot in the Command Deck, has a maximum level of 5 and a normal reload time of 20 seconds, and fills the Command Gauge by 40%.
In Kingdom Hearts Re:coded, Zantetsuken is an attack command that has a memory consumption of 22% of memory and a normal reload time of 25 seconds. If the Zantetsu Prime ability is active, Zantetsuken may destroy enemies in a single stroke. If used in midair, he will return to the ground before performing the attack.
In Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance, Zantetsuken is an attack command exclusive to Riku that has a chance to defeat enemies in one stroke. It takes up two slots in the Command Deck and has a reload time of 32 seconds. It grants +4 to Strength when attached to a Dream Eater recipe. Activating and landing a failed Zantetsuken as a Portal's time limit expires or when exiting the portal manually can sometimes cause the game to freeze.
In Kingdom Hearts Union χ, Zantetsuken is a special attack that targets all enemies. It costs 2 special attack gauges to perform. It inflicts more damage the lower the player's HP.

While wielding the Oathkeeper, Two Become One, or Dream Sword, the ground combo finisher is a Zantetsuken-like slash.
Kingdom Hearts Re:coded
Data-Sora's second ranged ground finish is a Zantetsuken-like slash without the reverse grip twirl (just like the Zantetsuken itself in this game). Both this finisher and the original Zantetsuken oddly also have Sora slashing the opponent with the "blade" of the Keyblade, and not with the teeth.
Origin
In the Template:Wiki series, Template:Wiki (斬鉄剣, lit. "Iron-cutting Sword") is the signature attack of the summon Template:Wiki, and it is sometimes mimicked by Template:Wiki. It typically inflicts Instant Death upon all enemies. It shares its name with a Template:Wiki. The term Zantetsuken is derived from a nickname given to swords crafted by Japanese swordsmith Yasuhiro Kobayashi.
