Heavy wind-up

Both hands take the sword up and back behind the head, the back arched and the weight on the back foot; it stays there, held, until the blow.

What it is for

The held preparation before a heavy blow: in a game, the charge-up you hold before letting go.

The principle it shows: anticipation, held

Anticipation, held. The back arches, the weight goes onto the back foot and the sword goes up behind the head with both hands. It stays there, so the longer it is held, the more the blow is expected.

Try this

Slow it from 0.25 s to 0.42 s: the same heavy wind-up, taken more slowly, so you see each part of it.
In the program: ramp · over 0.25 → 0.42
Turn the arm (right) to 124 degrees instead of 165: a smaller, tighter heavy wind-up.
In the program: ramp · to.part:arm:1 165 → 124

How it differs from the others

Heavy blow is what it leads to; Sword swing winds up and strikes in one go.

Works on

The two in the film above, and what the move turns on each: worked out by the build, which plays the move on each body and checks what moves. Nobody types this table.
Who	Moves?	What moves
Sunny (one of the six people)	yes	whole body, body, head, arms, legs
Grump (an animal on four legs)	yes	whole body, head, front legs, back legs, ears
