Item Crash

An Item Crash is a special attack performed by player characters. They tend to be very powerful, cover a wide area of the screen, and offer the player a period of invincibility. Rather than MP, they use Hearts.

Originating in Rondo of Blood, they refer to powered-up attacks that make use of sub-weapons in the official Castlevania games. In Castlevania Fighter, the term is generally used for any character's "ultimate" move performed with, regardless of whether it involves sub-weapons.
