Line 28:
* Happens twice to [[Chick Magnet]] Van in ''[[Gun X Sword]] ''. The first time, Van catches Wendy when she faints; the second time, Priscilla tumbles into his arms. Both girls are potential love interests. However, it's subverted in episode 6 when would-be bandit Klatt fails to catch his girlfriend Bunny. Van mocks him for it.
* Subverted in ''[[Ouran High School Host Club]]'' where during a Zuka club performance where Haruhi jumps off a high stage and into Tamaki's waiting arms... and proceeds to squash him into the ground.
* This is how [[Yandere|Kodachi]] ''thinks'' she met [[Ranma
* Subverted with [[Blood Knight|Mari]] in ''[[Rebuild of Evangelion]]''. The scene in question really has to be seen to be believed, but suffice it to say that the fine Eva tradition of Shinji being the [[Butt Monkey]] of all Creation is firmly upheld.
* At one point in ''[[Fairy Tail]]'', Lucy actually throws herself off of a building because she knows Natsu will be there to catch her. And sure enough, he comes running out of nowhere and saves her. Of course, they land completely awkwardly, with her chest smooshed up into his face.
Line 53:
* In ''[[Final Fantasy XII]]'', the main character catches Amalia in just this fashion.
** The dramatic version is also used in ''FFVIII'' when the team stages a commando raid on the facility about to freeze the love interest. Squall smashes the tank and Rinoa falls forward into his arms.
* Somewhat subverted in ''[[
* Scratch invokes this trope in ''[[Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog]]'', when after he [[Disguised in Drag|dresses]] to seduce Sonic, he deliberately trips and lands in Sonic's arms.
* In ''[[Psychonauts]]'' one of Milla's Memory Reels shows this happening with her and Sasha (that's a guy with an arguably [[Gender Blender Name]], for the record).
