:Hit Kick, Kick, then FORWARD + KICK. Knock enemies out of the air!
;Words of wisdom from [[User:Iritscen|Iritscen]]:The diary states that this move is intended to attack an aerial target (an enemy performing a jump-kick), but the time it takes to prepare it makes it impossible to use as a reaction to a jump-kick. This might make the attack seem impractical, but in fact, with proper timing it can be a trusty part of your one-on-one fighting style. First, you must knock an enemy down. This is the point where you must learn proper timing. You should either begin the Crescent Moon Kick while he's still on his back, as he gets up, or as he begins to run at you, depending on his distance from you. With proper timing, the kicking back-flip will occur just as he either runs at you, leaps at you to execute a jump-kick, or slides at your feet. The Crescent Moon Kick will interrupt attacks at any altitude, even at your feet, and [[wiktionary:hurl|hurl]] the enemy backwards. Difficult to execute, yes, but [[wiktionary:sublime|sublimely]] satisfying when you pull it off.

'''NOTE'''
:In original Oni, KONCOMcomb_k_k has bug, there is no link to CMK. That is why it is so hard to pull off. Maybe done on purpose, dunno. Fixed in Edition, so CMK can be pulled off as easily as spinning sidekick, thus being more useful. Its effect was however watered down to prevent abuse.
