Delay when using Whirlwind Cut after Shouryuusen

Bug type: Skill Functionality

Brief bug summary: When using Whirlwind Cut after Shouryuusen, there is a large delay that prevents Dankuusen, Falcon Dive and Hitokiri Strike from being used immediately.

More details: Normally the Hayato skills Dankuusen, Falcon Dive, and Hitokiri Strike can be used instantly after Whirlwind Cut.

Whirlwind Cut sends you flying into the air when used after Shouryuusen, but when Whirlwind Cut is used after Shouryuusen, the three skills mentioned above (Dankuusen, Falcon Dive and Hitokiri Strike) do not work properly - instead there is an abnormal delay that prevents the immediate use of those skills when landing.

Here are GIFs showing how Whirlwind Cut links with other skills when used with and without Shouryuusen. Note the large delays in each instance where Shouryuusen is used:

Steps to reproduce:
1. Stand under a floating platform - one that is not too far away from your character (ideally you should be able to land on it after using Shouryuusen & Whirlwind Cut).
2. Use Shouryuusen, then use Whirlwind Cut immediately after.
3. During Whirlwind Cut's animation, press Dankuusen repeatedly until it is used.
4. Observe the abnormal delay in between Whirlwind Cut and Dankuusen.

5. Repeat steps 3 & 4, this time using Falcon Dive instead of Dankuusen.
6. Repeat steps 3 & 4, this time using Hitokiri Strike instead of Dankuusen.

To see how it should be normally, repeat the above steps without using Shouryuusen. Note how each skill can be used after Whirlwind Cut without any of the abnormal delays from before.
