Line 55:
** It's also possible to do this in '' [[Melty Blood (Video Game)|Melty Blood]]''.
* Parodied in ''[[Shadow Skill]]'' when two fighters, exhausted after an all-night duel, cross-counter ''very slowly''.
* EP4 of ''[[Umineko no Naku Koro Ni (Visual Novel)|Umineko no Naku Koro Ni]]'' features a [[Anyone Can Die|rare humorous scene]] where Krauss fights {{spoiler|a Goat-man, [[Fan Nickname|affectionately named Bro-Goat by fans.]]}} This scene parodies multiple series, including the [[Nasuverse]], [[Dragonball]], and invokes [[ClicheCliché Storm|trope after trope]]. To finish it all off, it ends with a Triple Cross ([[Incredibly Lame Pun|Krauss]]!) Counter as the fight ending punch.
* The big knock-down-drag-out super brawl between Revy and Roberta of ''[[Black Lagoon]]'' ends with one of these.
* ''[[Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha]] ViVid'' used this [http://www.mangafox.com/manga/mahou_shoujo_lyrical_nanoha_vivid/v01/c007/21.html in the second match between Vivio and Einhart], though Vivio managed to dodge Einhart's side of the Cross Counter.

== [[Film]] ==
* ''[[Rocky III]]'' does a [[Pastel -Chalked Freeze -Frame]] and fades out on a similar shot (Apollo and Rocky simultaneously connecting, but with identical punches).
** This scene was parodied in ''[[Family Guy]]''.
* ''[[The Matrix]] Revolutions'' features this in the very start of the final battle between Neo and Smith.
Line 77:
* In ''[[Power Rangers RPM]]'', two [[Humongous Mecha]] do this to each other. {{spoiler|The one the bad guys had taken control of was unharmed, while the good guys' mecha was knocked apart.}}
* In the ''Ultraman Dyna'' series, Dyna faces off with Imitation Dyna and their battle ends in this fashion. {{spoiler|Dyna was able to avoid his copy's punch while Imitation Dyna's face literally shattered.}}
* In ''[[Kamen Rider Double]]'''s [[The Movie|Movie]], Shotaro (as Kamen Rider Joker) does this to one of the [[Five -Bad Band]]. However, because Shotaro's punch was a [[Finishing Move]], he came out on top.
** Speaking of, ''[[Kamen Rider]]'' has a variation that pops up from time to time where, instead of hooks, two characters will throw out front thrust kicks at the same time; often this is used to get some space between the characters so one (or both) can do something dramatic.
