HOW IT'S MADE

Anime Ki Blast Barrage stacks 8 particle emitters, each with its own job. Techniques worth a look: sub-emitters set off by other particles, particles stretched along their motion and post filters (bloom).

Every layer emits continuously and the 1.2 s loop closes seamlessly, so it can run for as long as you need. To change its colour, select "Hand Glow" in the studio and edit Colour A and Colour B. Size on the same layer sets how big its particles are.
