0.00-0.30s: The character thrusts her right hand forward in a sword-finger gesture as the floating blade module launches rapidly to the right, trailing a thin teal energy line. 0.30-0.60s: The blade reaches peak forward extension while her ponytail and cape flutter backward from the thrust. 0.60-1.00s: The blade module curves back to hover beside her shoulder as she withdraws her arm, settling smoothly into the idle pose in Picture 2.
