Dramatic Wind: Difference between revisions

** Fan Artists love to parody this - usually by Seto getting blown off his own [[Zeppelins from Another World|Zeppelin]] because of his longcoat!

* The ''[[Suzumiya Haruhi]]'' Brigade-movie "The Adventures Of Mikuru Asahina" used this with Yuki's introduction.

* Characters in [[Rurouni Kenshin]] are said to be able to summon their ''own'' Dramatic Wind by virtue of their [[Battle Aura]]; one sign that [[Kid Samurai|Yahiko]] [[Took a Level In Badass]] is that he manages to make a conveniently floating leaf break as it passes him.

* An egregious example can be found in ''Shattered Angels'' where Kyoshiro and Kuu stand face to face with one another but the wind blows at both characters in different (opposite) directions even though they are only standing a few paces apart.

* Used occasionally in [[King of the Hill]]. Whenever John Redcorn shares a Native American saying or story, it is accompanied by a breeze that moves through his hair, complete with mystical flute music appearing out of nowhere.

* Robin and Raven of ''[[Teen Titans (animation)|Teen Titans]]'' have their moments with this--[[Justified]] as they're the only two members with a cape and cloak. Most notably was at the end of "The End" arc, which is a double-whammy: After saving both the world ''and'' Raven from the apocalypse, the two of them stand atop the tower [[Cue the Sun|in the morning sun]], and have a [[Crowning Moment of Heartwarming|heartwarming]] and [[Crowning Moment of Awesome|goddamn inspirational]] conversation as the wind blows:

'''Robin:''' You have your whole life ahead of you. You can decide your own destiny. }}

* Disney's ''[[Pocahontas]]''. [[The Nostalgia Chick|And how]]. It's accompanied by a trail of fluorescent leaves.

* ''[[The Adventures of Dr. McNinja]]'' lampshades this in the Punch Dracula arc. A politician (who is secretly a ghost wizard) has a dude set up fans behind some flags, so the wave in the wind during his speech. [[Rule of Cool|These fans are used against him to make a tidal wave, where he is picked up in a submarine, where he promptly gets the undead shit beat out him by the McNinjas and Gordito.]]

* ''[[Sinfest]]'' [http://www.sinfest.net/archive_page.php?comicID=390 in a staring contest]. Also, Slick when trying [http://www.sinfest.net/archive_page.php?comicID=278 "Alejandro"] role.

* An antagonist in ''[[Sarab]]'' invokes this with his [[Blow You Away|powers]].

 

=== Western Animation ===

* Invoked in ''[[Futurama]]'' when Zapp Brannigan is giving his dramatic speech to the DOOP tribunal,

* ''[[King of the Hill]]'': In one episode Joseph steals "The Bugabago" (Dale's van) to go "wherever 1/8 of a tank of gas will take him". In a parody of generic romantic scenes, Connie runs out and asks to go with, complete with the dramatic wind blowing her hair.

** Every time John Redcorn talks about "his people", a sudden breeze from out of nowhere starts blowing his hair.
