Uchidachi:
gyaku-tombo – kirisage – torii – gyaku-tombo
Shidachi:
mukei – massugu – jokakugyaku – shitekisei – seiraitō – kobouchi – menuchi – massugu – mukei
Hanaguruma resembles a mirror image of Ranko. Shidachi steps forward in massugu no kurai and uchidachi in gyaku-tombo no kurai; a high position on the left side with the sword held with the left hand grip. A few steps before issoku itto no ma, shidachi steps back with his right leg to jokakugyaku no kurai and mirrors uchidachi's position as he reaches issoku itto no ma and launches his strike.
Shidachi avoids the strike by straightening his body, stepping back with his left leg next to his right, with his left foot lightly touching the ground, and raising his sword to shitekisei no kurai. Still in the same motion, shidachi steps to the left with his left foot, rotates his right shoulder and slashes kobouchi from seiraitō no kurai and locks the opponent's sword, hands and arms with kuraizume. At the same time, the right leg also follows and shidachi creates a new center line towards uchidachi.
Uchidachi retreats and shidachi steps forward and slashes nikiri to the head with menuchi. The blow is intercepted by uchidachi with torii no kurai.
Uchidachi returns to the starting position in tombo no kurai; shidachi in massugu no kurai and finishes in mukei no kurai.
