If the writers have to [[My Kung Fu Is Stronger Than Yours|surpass]] whatever power is responsible for [[Swirling Dust]], they'll frequently resort to a [[Chunky Updraft]]. The guiding principle behind both of these is [[Sphere of Power]]. Not to be confused with [[Smoke Shield]], when large amounts of dust shield attackers. May also occasionally manifest as trail from the use of [[Super Speed]].
{{examples|Examples:}}
 
== [[Anime]] and [[Manga]] ==
* ''[[Dragonball Z]]''. All the time. Sometimes to the extent of giant swirling ''clouds''.
* In ''[[Ah! My Goddess (Manga)|Ah My Goddess]]'' it's not dust, it's all of Keiichi's possessions.
* ''[[Mahou Sensei Negima]]'' shows a swirl of dust kicking up around Negi as he casts a spell in the title sequence.
* In ''[[Mai-HiME (Anime)|Mai-HiME]]'', several of the girls get a dust swirl when they use or activate their HiME powers.
Line 23:
 
== [[Western Animation]] ==
* [[Justified Trope|Justified]] on ''[[Avatar: The Last Airbender]]''. Aang, as the Avatar, can control the four [[Elemental Rock -Paper -Scissors|elements]], so when the [[Unstoppable Rage|Avatar State]] kicks in, the wind, water, and/or earth around him are going to swirl.
