Description

If it’s anything that watching samurai movies has taught us, it’s that people tend to get cut in half a lot when sharp pointy foreign objects are swung at them from various angles. Now with Zantetsuken, you too can cleave anything that can be cut with conviction!Zantetsuken is a filter with a penchant for cutting anything in half from any angle and having those parts shift apart for that oh so wonderful “it’s probably dead” effect that we’ve all come to love! With multiple slash styles, a Yin-Yang Slash feature for dramatic flare and Verticle Extend for tall images, there has never been a better time for cutting stuff up!The Zantetsuken effect is attributed to a legendary sword used by the anime character Goemon Ishikawa XIII, however, the actual cutting effect exhibited in this filter was made popular by Odin from the Final Fantasy series who would basically appear out of nowhere to cut stuff up real good with a sword of the same name – Zantetsuken!
