Cleave (also known as Spincut in the SNES/PS version) is the fourth Tech learned by Crono in Chrono Trigger. It deals physical damage to a single enemy, and it consumes 4 MP.
Animation[]
Crono leaps high into the air, leaving a shadowy after-image. He then brings his sword hard down upon the enemy.
Enemy Tech[]
Cleave is also an enemy Tech used by Slash and Steel Shade. Slash only use it when he is equipped with the Slasher.
Etymology[]
The verb "To cleave" essentially means to split/cut something with a sharp instrument, which is what Crono does here with his katana.
