Crane is a stance used by Lei Wulong since Tekken 3.
In Tekken 5, Crane notably allows Lei to hop over any low or special mid attack to avoid the attack, and, unlike Anna Williams' Chaos Judgement, also avoided unparryable lows like Knee Slicer, but he did not get anything guaranteed from the hop. This was changed in Tekken 6, where he automatically performs Leaping Crane against most non-projectile lows and special mids.
