Dress Break

The Dress Break, also known as the Clothes Collapse, is a technique developed and put to use by Issei Hyoudou.

Summary
While training in preparation for Rias' Rating Game against Riser Phenex, Issei invented the technique to fight against Riser's peerage, which consists entirely of girls. Following its creation, it became one of the two signature moves of Issei that are used against female opponents.

Shortly after its introduction, Dress Break became banned in Rating Games.

Abilities
Dress Break has the ability to strip female opponents of their clothing by touching the clothes. To use Dress Break, Issei first comes into contact with his target, after which a magic circle appears at the point of contact. Finally, Issei triggers the Dress Break with a snap of his fingers. Aside from clothing, Issei can also remove any magic that covers the female body through Dress Break, as shown in the case of Asia and Jeanne.

A weakness for Dress Break is that it cannot be used against a woman who is already taking her clothes off, as with the case in Issei's fight against Coriana Adrealphus during Rias' Rating Game against Sairaorg Bael.

A variation of the spell can be used to peal fruits and vegetables.

Trivia

 * In the anime, the inspiration for Issei's Dress Break came from his fight with Kalawarner, when the latter was stripped naked by the energy created from Issei's Sacred Gear when he first activated it.
 * Issei states that he couldn't decide between this or a spell to see through clothing.
 * Dress Break resembles the Disarming spell from Negima.
