Line 22:
* Su pulls a [[Dynamic Entry]] on Keitaro in the second volume of ''[[Love Hina]]'' for no adequately explored reason, too.
* Happens midway through the manga version of ''[[Hellsing]]'' with Alucard and Anderson.
* In ''[[Yu Yu Hakusho (Manga)|Yu Yu Hakusho]]'', after Yuske trains with Genkai for the Dark Tournement, Hiei attacks him upon greeting him to test his improvement.
* Belfangan Clouseaux ([[Spell My Name Withwith an "S"|or something]]) of ''[[Full Metal Panic]] The Second Raid'' introduces himself to Sousuke and Kurz by insulting their late superior, picking a bar fight, and then challenging Sousuke to a mech battle. He turned out to be their new superior (and actually very close friends with the dead guy, though for some reason he chooses not to reveal that to them during ''TSR'').
* When Amidamaru and Mosuke meet again early in ''[[Shaman King]]'', they yell at each other and then punch each other in the face (while Mosuke was incorporated into Ryu's body and Amidamaru in Yoh's). Then, with their fists buried in each other's faces, they talk to each other properly:
{{quote| '''Mosuke''': I missed you, Amidamaru.<br />
'''Amidamaru''': It's been a while, Mosuke. }}
** Immediately lampshaded by Anna: "Men are so incredibly dumb. They can't even greet each other without getting flashy."
* In ''[[Kanon (Visual Novel)|Kanon]]'', Ayu leaps and tackles Yuiichi every time she meets him on the street. Eventually, he gets used to it. And occasionally dodges, sending her crashing into the ground/telephone poles. Played for adorable.
** ''[[AIR (Visual Novel)|AIR]]'' (also produced by [[Kyoto Animation]]) does the same thing with Michiru tackling Yukito (much to his annoyance). Again, played for cute.
* [[Suzumiya Haruhi|Haruhi Suzumiya]] does this once or twice.
* [[Catch Phrase|RANMA! Prepare to DIE!]] was occasionally Ryouga's way of saying hello to Ranma.

* In the current run of ''[[Batman and Thethe Outsiders]]'', Cassandra (Batgirl) Cain tosses Thunder through plate glass as a greeting to the group. (This is not followed up in the next issue, which has Cass peacefully co-existing with Thunder and no mention of how they met.)
* In ''[[Earth X|Universe X]]'', the Thing has come to visit the Sub-Mariner for the first time in years--since Namor broke the Human Torch's neck during a team-up with Doctor Doom. He ''promised'' not to hit Namor, for very good reasons. Sadly, his self-control isn't up to the challenge.
* In issue 13 of ''Peter Parker, the Spectacular Spider-man'', the hog-themed trucker hero Razorback from Texarkana picks a fight with Spidey because he thought that's how all the hero-types introduced themselves.
Line 62:
* This was the standard greeting between [[The Pink Panther|Clouseau and Kato]] in the original films, and they introduced a version of it into the 2006 version.
* Cato attempts these on Clouseau in the [[Pink Panther]] movies.
* [[Captain America (1990 film)|Captain America]] [[The Movie]]- Heil Hitler!!!
* ''[[The Guns of Navarone]]''. When Maria meets her brother Spiro (who had been in America for many years), she slaps him as a reminder to write more often.
* The title character does this to a fellow officer in ''[[The Great Santini]]''.
* [[Groundhog Day (Film)|NED?]] *BAM!*

* ''[[Torchwood (TV)|Torchwood]]'''s Captain Jack and Captain John do this in "[[Kiss Kiss Slap|Kiss Kiss Bang Bang]]." For...no good reason, really. After they've snogged, and before they have a drink together.
* There was an episode of [[Burn Notice]] in which Michael & Co. helped to save a woman and sons from an abusive husband. Mike took the history [[Berserk Button|personally]] and made a point of attacking the husband every time they had to meet.
** Also in the first appearance of Michael's Brother, Nate, when Michael walks into their mother's home and is grabbed from behind by Nate, only to be thrown.
Line 89:
 
* Kimahri's attack on Tidus near the beginning of ''[[Final Fantasy X]]'' could be this or [[Let's You and Him Fight]] depending on what you think Kimahri's reasons were.
* Because of the nature of the Spellcard rules, fandom conjecture often says that the cast of ''[[Touhou (Video Game)|Touhou]]'' often greet each other with furious attacks. It even happens in ''Subterranean Animism'' game during the Extra Story.
** Lily White tends to use [[Bullet Hell|danmaku]] rather than words to herald spring.
* This is the preferred method of greeting programmed into PROXY, the protagonist's [[Robot Buddy]] in ''[[The Force Unleashed]]''. It's all part of the Sith [[Training From Hell]]: Vader has no need for an apprentice that cannot shrug off sneak attacks.

* In ''[[Buck Godot: Zap Gun for Hire|Buck Godot: Zap Gun For Hire]]'', this is basically the standard method of greeting between [[Heavyworlder|Hoffmanites]] like the main character. We see this early in ''The Gallimaufry'', where he runs into his uncle Frakkus, and they engage in a lengthy battle until interrupted by a marine-squadron (which they then proceed to demolish together). Frakkus later mentions that Hoffmanites find handshakes to be 'lacking in substance'.
** And that's just casual greetings. They start ''courtship'' with high explosives.
* In ''[[The Adventures of Dr. McNinja (Webcomic)|The Adventures of Dr. McNinja]]'', the titular medically inclined ninja has to sneak past his mother (and his brother's army of animal robots) every time he returns home. Or, if that fails, fight his way past.
* In ''[[Errant Story]]'', Sarine is returning to the elven city when an old friend of hers - Misa - decides to sneak up on her for fun. Unfortunately, Sarine is a tad JUMPY after a crazy and/or obeying-the-[[Ancient Conspiracy]] elf attempted to assassinate her earlier, and nearly kills the girl before she realizes who she is.
* In ''[http://www.revenant-braves.schala.net Circumstances of the Revenant Braves]'' Sol greets Kei with a Falcon Punch, claiming that as a warrior, he deserves a "manly warrior's greeting".
* In ''[[El Goonish Shive (Webcomic)|El Goonish Shive]]'', Grace likes to welcome Tedd home this way ("[http://egscomics.com/?date=2002-03-29 Beats] Getting Tackled [[Calvin and Hobbes|by Some Stuffed Tiger]] Everyday at Least").
