Midare Setsugekka is a recurring katana technique within RPG titles directed or produced by Akitoshi Kawazu of Square Enix. The move consists of three slashes, starting off with Snow [雪], then Moon [月], then Flower [花].

However, this signature move is often unrecognized outside Japan due to differences in translation:
-"Level 3 Combination!" in SaGa Frontier
-Beautiful Three in Legend of Mana
-Scattered Petals in Romancing SaGa Minstrel Song
-Snowpetal in The Last Remnant

To hopefully help remedy this, I've compiled every appearance of the technique that I know of. In order of appearance:
-Romancing SaGa 2 [1993]
-Romancing SaGa 3 [1995]
-SaGa Frontier [1997]
-Legend of Mana [1999]
-Romancing SaGa Minstrel Song [2005]
-The Last Remnant [2008]

"Level 3 Combination!" is triggered in SaGa Frontier by using Blizzard, Moonlight Cut, and Tres Flores.
Scattered Petals is triggered in Romancing SaGa by activating a Surge-Reverse with Lunar Blade.

Note that none of this video is recorded by me, I merely compiled them from various sources. Thanks to the following users (clips used without permission):
