Vertical Arrow (バーチカルアロー) is one of Blue Mary's Special Moves in both the Fatal Fury and The King of Fighters series, first appearing alongside her in Fatal Fury 3: Road to the Final Victory.
It also appears in Street Fighter 6 as an unlockable move only Avatars can use after completing the Lost & Found Side-Mission in the Knock Out Festival scenario that is tied to Terry.

Description
Mary jumps upwards with a diagonal kick.
This can be followed up with M. Snatcher (Ｍ.スナッチャー; Mary's Snatcher), where Mary locks her opponent's head between her legs and breaks their neck upon landing. This would be a standalone Special Move in Real Bout Fatal Fury Special for EX Blue Mary, and in Real Bout Fatal Fury 2: The Newcomers as an anti-air grab.
