Spam Attack: Difference between revisions

* ''[[Rurouni Kenshin]]'' has sword-based variations : Ryuu Sou Sen (consecutive hits to the nine vital areas), and the later Kuzu Ryuu Sen (''simultaneous'' hits to said areas.)

** Watsuki being a [[The Shinsengumi|Shinsengumi]] fan and repeatedly using their members as an inspiration, these moves are very likely based on Souji Okita's real life signature movement, the Sandanzuki, that could hit three vital points in one strike so fast it was described as doing it ''at the same time''.

* In ''[[Bleach]]'', Ichigo Kurosaki's bankai (final release sword ability) takes the power other [[BFS|zanpaku-to]] put into force and instead turns it into speed instead. Not only does it let him parry literally ''millions'' of razor-sharp sword-petals in seconds, it lets him launch multiple [[Sword Beam|Getsuga Tensho]] from opposite sides of an opponent almost simultaneously.

** Byakuya's bankai (the aforementioned millions of sword-petals) is a more straightforward application of this family of tropes. Ichigo never uses the slashing speed he demonstrates when parrying Senbonzakura to launch a true Spam Attack so much as a Spam Defense.

** In ''[[Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories|Chain of Memories]]'', you can set up a deck of multiple Sonic Blades (which, if timed right, can hit a target 7 or so times in a row) with 2+ Hi-Potions, spam the triangle button, and kill every boss you come across. Random encounters it's less effective against, as some enemies like to disappear into the ground (I'm looking at you, Shadow) or fly every which way.

* Millia Rage's Lust Shaker attack from ''[[Guilty Gear]]''.

** [[Older Than They Think|Which he actually had in the first two]] ''[[Super Smash Bros]]'' games, and it could even be done in ''[[Zelda II: The Adventure of Link|Zelda II the Adventure of Link]]'' with a turbo controller.

* The Bandit class in ''[[Maple Story]]'' gets an attack called "Savage Blow", which is a series of rapid slashes with a dagger.
