Axe Boomerang

The Axe Boomerang (unofficial name) is an Axe thrown spinning straight ahead, which then slows down and switches directions. Sometimes it can be caught on the return trip, while other times it is not and continues in the same direction until it is off of the screen. It is similar in function to the Cross Boomerang attack. The move was first used by Axe Knights in the original Castlevania and is a common attack by them in later games. It returned to them via a chain in Haunted Castle. Simon Belmont first used this attack for the Axe instead of his original Upward Axe Throw move in Vampire Killer. It can also be performed by the Minotaur in some games, whose long handled Minotaur Axe spins horizontally, giving its attack an oblong area of attack.
