|description= Mai's projectile. Despite being a projectile, its main purpose is usually not the zoning, but rather space control.
*
* '''A version''' = The projectile travles slowly and Mai recovers quickly afterwards, giving her an opportunity to run behind it to apply pressure. This is the go-to move to end blockstrings due to its safety and distance on block. It is also the primary way of forxing the opponent to block on oki and after a restand,
*
* '''B version''' = The projectile travels faster, but Mai doesn't racover quickly. This version can also be used during blockstrings and restands, but Mai can't really do much afterwards due to the slower recovery. Therefore, this version is more used as a pure zoning tool.
* '''EX version''' = The projectile travels the same speed as the B version, but Mai recovers faster now. Hits twice, regardless if it gets blocked or if it hits. It just needs to collide with the opponent in order to activate the second part. It destroys projectiles, but depending on which projectile it collided with, different outcomes happen:
1) If it collides with a regular projectile, it will nullify it and continue its path.
2) If it beats one projectile and collides with a second projectile, it will get nullified and the opponent's projectile will keep going.
3) If it collides with Supermove projectiles, it will get nullified.
Mai is a kunoichi and successor of the Shiranui style of ninja arts. Her opponents are at the mercy of her graceful movements and fascinating attire. Using large fans as weapons, her fighting style is to "float like a butterfly, sting like a bee".
(Air OK) = Can be done on both the ground and in the air.

Mai spins and creates a trail of fire with her tail. Nullifies projectiles upon contact.
A version = Hits somewhat later, launcher in the corner.
B version = Hits almost instantly and hits twice. Because its first hit lands faster than A version, using the B version makes certain combos possible. Normally unsafe on block, but can be made plus if done meaty.
EX version = Go-to launcher for every situation, regardless of the position on the stage or during a combo. Hits 3 times and has similar startup to the B version.
