Wonder (閃, literally translated as "Flash") is a character type introduced in the Warriors Orochi series, appearing in the newest entry. Characters in this category are represented by the color violet. They gain the Spirit Charge (影技, lit. "Shadow Art") technique a la Samurai Warriors 3; this is done by pressing 
during any connecting normal attack, charge attack or R1 Type Action at the cost of some of the character's Musou.
Unlike in Samurai Warriors 3 however, Wonder types can now use the Spirit Charge on any airborne attacks, especially with moves that keep the character airborne. The said Spirit Charge also has more range on its hitbox, requiring less precision; it can even activate certain elements.
Another one of their traits is the ability to inflict critical hits with charge attacks upon stumbled/staggering targets, either from a successful Break Guard or a connecting Spirit Charge.
