Animation Details
A sword-blocking animation variation with a pronounced release from its opening pose. The character begins in a wide stance with one arm lifted above the head and the other held across the torso. Small upper-body adjustments maintain this asymmetric shape.
The chest then arches backward as the arms open and the body turns. The hands lower, the feet reposition and the character settles into a more upright, side-facing stance. Green guide lines accompany the hand movement; no opposing character or confirmed blade contact is shown. The transition from a raised posture into lowered arms makes the ending useful for connecting to subsequent scene action.
 
Technical Specifications
File format: FBX, as identified in the existing listing. Source frame rate, rig structure, root motion and loop continuity have not been independently verified. Separate transition clips or a reusable held-pose loop are not established by the preview.
 
Compatibility and Production Workflows
Blender FBX import offers a possible route for adapting the performance to a sword-wielding character. Review the backward chest movement, hand paths and foot repositioning with your rig and prop. Place any scene partner separately and refine the moment of interaction for the camera. This route has not been tested with the archive.
 
Suitable Uses
Suitable for a staged duel reaction, a fantasy character recovering from a defensive pose, or a cinematic transition from confrontation into standing. The lowered-arm finish can support a pause in the scene before another gesture or movement is added.
