That animation is the whole reason I decided to play this!
(And for some reason I decided to do a physical skill only run.)
P.S. I think No escape and Shield crush need a nerf, I one shot basic enemies 4 levels higher than me back when I had 28 str, if you have both it makes the cat very easy on normal, because you only really need to do the first HP bar, then one shot the rest on the same turn. :3
