Line 12:
* In ''[[Toriko]]'' some irate rock monsters split the cast apart by sending them flying in all directions about 1/3 of the way through the regal mammoth arc.
* In the first season of ''[[Digimon]]'' this is what Devimon does to the Digidestined.
* In ''[[Mahou Sensei Negima]]'', the main cast is at a [[Portal Network|Gateport]], having just arrived in the [[Magic World]] from Wales. The Bad Guys pick that moment to launch their attack on the [[Portal Network]] to cut the Magic World off from the real one. As the system explodes, there's all kinds of [[Buffy-Speak|swirly craziness]] and the cast end up scattered in ones and twos across a surface area nearly a third that of Earth. It takes an interminable period to get everyone back together, but when they do, everyone has, as they say, [[Took a Level
* In the manga and second anime of ''[[Fullmetal Alchemist]]'', Fuhrer Bradley feels that Colonel Mustang and the people under him are capable of dethroning him, so at one point in the story, Bradley uses his position to reassign the entire Mustang group to far corners of the country, each doing a job they're not very good at. {{spoiler|They aren't reunited until near the end of the story with added allies, one of whom ''does'' kill Bradley and appoint Mustang as the new leader of the country}}.
* [[Samurai Troopers]] (aka [[Ronin Warriors]]) has [[Big Bad|Talpa]] send the five warriors to five locations, each of them stuck in their own element (mostly - Ryo's in a volcano, Rowan in the stratosphere, Sai beneath the waves and Kento stuck in rock, but Sage too is stuck in rock because it ''blocks'' the light??). Mia and Yuli manage to locate Ryo and wake him up, and then they spend several episodes gathering the rest of the team.

* ''[[Dungeons
** Adventure S1 ''[[Tomb of Horrors]]''. The demilich Acererak had the ability to teleport the [[PC
** Adventure S4 ''The Lost Caverns of Tsojcanth''. A glowing underground grotto would teleport each [[PC]] who entered it to one of 4 possible extra-dimensional locations, thus almost certainly splitting up the party.
** The Crypt Thing monster could teleport each [[PC]] facing it up to 1,000 feet north, south, east or west.
Line 41:
* In ''[[Age of Mythology]]'', the team of heroes is scattered by an avalanche caused by Kronos and must regroup before they can build a settlement.
* In ''[[Super Paper Mario]]'', Dimentio sends Mario and gang to the Underwhere, the Mario-verse equivalent of Hell. Mario wakes up alone and has to team up with Luigi, Bowser and Peach again before they can obtain the next [[MacGuffin]] and escape.
** Also, in ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'' Subspace Emissary mode, there are multiple times where party members are forced to split up (for example, Mario being shot into Skyworld by Petey Pirahna, or DK throwing away Diddy Kong to prevent Bowser from [[Taken for Granite|"trophy-fying"]] him). They all reunite late into the game to enter Subspace.
* In ''[[Chrono Trigger]]'', this happens after the Fall of Zeal.
* In ''[[Planescape: Torment]]'', this happens to your party once you enter the [[The Very Definitely Final Dungeon|Fortress of Regrets]]. Unlike other examples of this trope, in this case {{spoiler|your companions inevitably die one by one while you're looking for them (except for one, who betrays and attacks you). You get a chance to resurrect them all after getting to the end, though.}}
