ARMS Jump (アームジャンプ ) and ARM Hook (アームフック, Arm Hook) are two variations of Min Min's up special move.

Overview

When used on the ground, Min Min performs ARMS Jump, where she slams her fists on the ground in order to then leap into the air. Much like Shock Spring Jump, the height reached by the move depends on how long the player holds the button. It also grants brief intangibility from frame 8-13 (more if charged), allowing it to be used as a somewhat slow escape option.

When used in the air, Min Min performs ARM Hook, reaching up a long distance with her left ARM. If she is close to a ledge, her ARM will act as a tether recovery. It can be used as an attack and deals respectable damage and knockback on its own (being able to KO past 120% near the upper blast line), though it is difficult to use in combat due to its fixed angle and relatively specific hitbox. ARM Hook can also be used in tandem with ARMS Jump to catch an opponent near the top blast line and potentially earn a very early KO, though this combo is situational at best due to the narrow hitboxes of ARM Hook making the move fairly easy to miss the opponent.

Instructional quotes

Move List		On the ground, the ARMS boost the jump. In the air, the ARMS extend upward to attack or to grab on to an edge.
fighter tips		When neither ARM is extended and you're on the ground, this move will send you flying upward. You'll be invincible the moment you jump, and charging the move will extend the height and invincibility time! If you tilt the stick to the left or right before you jump, you can leap diagonally. You can also move to the left or right while falling. Use this move in the air to extend an ARM diagonally upward. If it hits an edge, you'll be able to dangle from the edge instead of falling. Tilt up on the stick or press a button to pull yourself up.

Origin

One of Spring Man’s victory animations, which ARMS Jump seems to be inspired from.

While not specific techniques in the home series, ARMS Jump bears a resemblance to a similar high jump in one of Spring Man's victory poses and ARM Hook is a standard punch at a higher angle. During the Nintendo Switch Presentation 2017 trailer, a girl who is playing Ribbon Girl can be seen doing a move similar to what Min Min does to evade a man playing Spring Man's punch.
