Line 57:
* ''[[Power Rangers Ninja Storm]]'': If they're not already in their ninja uniforms, our heroes fling their civilian clothes immediately before entering the [[Transformation Sequence]], in order that their pre-transformation outfits match the [[Stock Footage]].
** Similarly, Anubis "Doggie" Cruger in ''[[Power Rangers SPD]]'' flings his trench coat off during his [[Transformation Sequence]].
*** And don't forget how the Ninja Rangers in season 3 of ''[[Mighty Morphin Power Rangers]]'' back-transformed from their Ninja costumes. (Yes, there was a [[Highly -Visible Ninja|bright pink ninja suit]].)
*** This actually started as early as ''season 2'' of Mighty Morphin'! Kimberly does this with her Pink Ranger uniform. following the battle with Zedd's goons with the ancestors of the other Rangers. It becomes standard for the Ranger forms in season 3.
* In ''[[Ultraman]]'', the team uses this to change from business suits to battle uniforms.
Line 85:
** The boss of ''2001'', Igniz, uses this as a ''basic attack''.
* For [[Darkstalkers (Video Game)|B.B. Hood's]] "Cool Hunting" super, she flings away a cloak to reveal... other Dark Hunters, who [[More Dakka|open fire]] on the opponent.
* In a possible parody, [[Morally -Ambiguous Doctorate|Kira Daidohji]] of ''[[Arcana Heart (Video Game)|Arcana Heart]]'' does this with a ''[[Modesty Towel]]'' for her entrance.
* The [[Cool Old Guy|aged]] [[Badass|Liquid]] [[Magnificent Bastard|Ocelot]] throws off his trench coat before engaging [[Metal Gear Solid|Old Snake]] in one last fight. This reveals two things: first, Ocelot is in amazing shape for a man in his seventies. Second, {{spoiler|he has a cybernetic arm instead of Liquid's arm. This arm ''hurts'', as evidenced by the large chunks of health Snake loses when he's hit by it.}}
** The Boss throws her cloak off before a fight in [[Metal Gear Solid 3]].
* At one point in ''[[Skies of Arcadia (Video Game)|Skies of Arcadia]]'', a female villain wearing a [[Stripperiffic|belly-dancer outfit]] somehow manages this - she flings her very sheer shawl at the camera and is then suddenly clad in her full navy uniform.
* Done by the final boss of [[Mad World]], {{spoiler|The Black Baron [[Memetic Mutation|"Stop Starin'!"]] tosses his pimp robe}} just as the music comes on. One [[Pre -Ass -Kicking One -Liner]] later, and the fight is ON.
* [[Blaz Blue]] brings us Noel, Litchi, and Makoto, all who have introduction poses. Noel and Makoto throw off their cloaks, while Litchi grabs her dress and sweeps it around herself, [http://fc09.deviantart.net/fs70/f/2010/078/6/f/Litchi_changing_outfit_by_mikagome007.gif setting a new world record for fastest change into alluring attire.]
* Ricardo in ''[[Shadow Hearts]]: From the New World'' throws his hat when he uses his unique skill "[[Macross Missile Massacre|Fated Day's End]]".
Line 106:
** And [[Squee|Squeeing]] [[Fan Girl|Fangirls]] to lampshade the sheer gratuitousness of the scene.
* In ''[[Batman the Brave And The Bold (Animation)|Batman the Brave And The Bold]]'' the Music Meister does this about eight or nine times in close succession. Perhaps quick costume changes are another one of his superpowers.
* In the second season finale of [[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic (Animation)|My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic]], when the royal wedding is overrun by an evil race called the Changelings, the main characters throw off their bridesmaids outfits before going out to retrieve the magic [[Mac Guffins]] that can defeat them, prompting Rarity, the one who designed and made them, to try and catch them. It takes the others yelling at her to throw off her outfit as well.
