The Marokare (混, "Rolling Wither" in furigana, "Blend" in kanji), also known as Sanagi o Yaburi, Chou wa Mau (さなぎをやぶりちょぅわまお, "Breaking the Chrysalis, the Butterfly then Flies"), is a Hyper Attack that first appeared in The King of Fighters '97. It is the signature move of Orochi, and arguably the first Screen Filler Hyper Attack in the history of fighting games.
Executed using 
in all of Orochi's playable incarnations (
in The King of Fighters '97's unplayable version), Orochi raises its arms to the sky and calls down a radiant light that hits the full screen for 8 hits. The attack is fairly devastating in Orochi's original incarnation in The King of Fighters '97 as the final boss, but in later versions the damage was toned down significantly.
Because the attack provides an easily available screen spanning sprite, many character creators have used the Marokare as a base for the creation of their own characters' screen-filler moves.
