* Retsuga in ''[[Ginga: Nagareboshi Gin]]'' can create tornadoes at will. This trope is played straight in the sense that the surrounding area seems to barely be affected... and then Retsuga goes and ''actually dives into the funnel cloud'' and "rides" the tornado to make a fancy exit. Needless to say, doing this does not harm him in any way.

* Averted in ''[[Ranma ½|[[Ranma ½]]'': the basic form of the Heaven's Dragon Blast (or Hiryuu Shouten Ha) [[Finishing Move|ultimate technique]] creates a tornado with, depending on the methods and circumstances, varying degrees of intensity. Even the weakest form creates very strong winds in the vicinity, which have visible effects on objects (and people) fairly separate from the funnel. Note that the revised versions of the technique behave on wildly different principles and don't necessarily apply.

** But not averted in the videogames, where characters can stand directly next to the funnel (or even block it for [[Scratch Damage|Chipping Damage]]) to no ill effect.

* In ''[[Pokémon (anime)|Pokémon]]'', people and Pokémon can be seen narrowly dodging small funnel clouds -the result of the whirlwind attack--without coming to any harm. On the other hand, Pokémon do get sucked into whirlpools.
