Mars Fireball ChargeFirst Appearance: Act 4. See Also: Akuryou Taisan [manga] & Mars Fireball Charge [anime]
In Brief: While this is Sailor Mars' second Sailor Soldier attack, Raye had been using a version of this attack in her civillian form before she was awakened and met Sailor Moon and Mercury. The attack basically involves Raye throwing an ofuda (anti-evil scroll) at a target and yelling, "Evil Spirits Disperse!". The desired effect would almost always be to freeze the evildoer.
Cultural: The chanting Sailor Mars does in the Japanese version, "Rin, pyou, tou, sha, kai, jin, retsu, sai, zen. Akuryou taisan!" is called Kuji-in and is a form of Shinto meditation that is practices by Shinto, Shugendo, Zen and the Ninja. It is also known as "The Nine Finger Cuts".
The Attack: For the live action series attack, Sailor Mars begins to make circular motions with her arms as her red gem on her front ribbon begins to glow. Her arm movements begin to speed up and she then brings both of her hands together in an open palm position as flames begin to form there. Suddenly hundreds of ofuda fly out of the fire towards the target.
