Gosh Hornet: Difference between revisions

There's nothing left but to run for your life!

 

 

This is mostly an [[Animation Tropes|animation]] and [[Comedy Tropes|comedy trope]].

 

To escape the swarm, the character will almost always jump into a body of water. Since bees can't swim, they are usually forced to give up - [[Television Is Trying to Kill Us|which isn't advised in real life]], [[Super Persistent Predator|since they wait.]]

* In ''[[Amanin Shoujo Azuki]]'' it's mentioned that ninja-in-training Azuki is known for accidentally disturbing beehives when climbing trees.

* The feudal romantic-comedy ''[[Abarenbou Shounangon]]'' has spunky protagonist Sei throwing rocks at a beehive so she can collect the honey within. Her companion warns her to stop, but a comical mishap ends with Sei being stung.

* An episode of ''[[Sherlock Hound]]'' has Sherlock substituting a draped cage with valuable a parrot in it with a draped cage with a hornet's nest in it, this isn't found out until the villains are high up in the air on their little airplane and can't exactly run.

* Episode 12 of ''[[Yume no Crayon Oukoku]]'' has protagonist Silver playing dead to elude a bear. She's almost successful, but her monkey companion accidentally knocks a beehive next to her, leading to both the bees and the bear attacking her.

* ''[[Wonder Boy III Monster Lair (Video Game)|Monster Lair]]'' has a giant wasp nest and its queen as the boss of Stage 4.

* ''[[Clonk (Video Game)|Clonk]]'' has [[Call a Rabbit A Smeerp|zap]] nests. Breaking them results in this, and they are annoyingly fragile. It's fun to catapult them into your enemies base though.

* ''[[Legend of Legaia (Video Game)|Legend of Legaia]]'' has three killer bees and their queen in the main character's hometown, defeating them gives you honey which permanently boosts your stats.

** And then in the episode "Feeling Pinkie Keen" Pinkie Pie's "Pinkie Sense" allows her to hide from an angry bee swarm that pops out from nowhere, but Twilight Sparkle isn't that lucky.

** In "Fall Weather Friends, Applejack uses a beehive to attack Rainbow Dash during the race.
