History Main / TooSlow

* Setsuna in ''Manga/NegimaMagisterNegiMagi'' said this in an unimpressed manner to Negi when she found that he wasn't quite focused on the fight.

* Also a catchphrase of epic-tier Mecha pilots like [[Anime/MobileSuitZetaGundam Char Aznable]] and his expies.
* In Anime/GaoGaiGar, Pizza ([[spoiler:and later, Soldat J]]) loves to taunt Guy with this, paraphrased:
-->"It is not that I am fast - you are merely too slow."

* Speed of Sound Sonic's schtick in ''Manga/OnePunchMan'' is that he's, well, fast. Naturally, every time he goes up against Saitama his speed is entirely useless, though Saitama never taunts him (and even seems to be unaware Sonic is a villain).
** Sonic does use the phrase "too slow" when fighting the Sea King.

* [[WesternAnimation/PussInBotsTheLastWish]] turns serious when Puss, normally an incredible fighter who constantly pulls improbable stunts, is vastly outmatched by a mysterious white wolf bounty hunter who effortlessly dodges Puss's attacks without even spilling his drink ; taunting him with [[AddedAlliterativeAppeal"Slow", "Sloppy" and "Sad"]] all the while.

** However, it was used already years before in ''VideoGame/SonicAdventure2'': Eggman says "Sonic, you're too slow" if you need more than four minutes to reach the final room in Crazy Gadget.

* VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog in ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBrosBrawl'': [[Memes/SuperSmashBros "You're too slow! You're too slow! You're too slow!"]]

* Believe it or not, one of the Cell Juniors in ''Anime/DragonBallZKai''. Like VideoGame/{{Sonic|TheHedgehog}}, they're blue.

* ''VideoGame/TheWorldEndsWithYou'': "So zetta slow" is [[MadMathematician Sho Minamimoto's]] CatchPhrase.
* The Scout in ''VideoGame/TeamFortress2'': "Yoink! Too slow! [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PnxMGOXY80A&fmt=18?t=46s I'm a freakin' blur here!"]]
* VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog in ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBrosBrawl'': [[Memes/SuperSmashBros "You're too slow! You're too slow! You're too slow!"]]
** However, it was used already years before in ''VideoGame/SonicAdventure2'': Eggman says "Sonic, you're too slow" if you need more than four minutes to reach the final room in Crazy Gadget.
* This is one of Raphael's quotes in ''[[VideoGame/SoulSeries Soul Calibur 2]]''.
** And Setsuka in 3.
* In ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfDragoon'', during the BossBattle against [[spoiler:Lloyd]], he says "Too slow!" if he dodges one of your attacks.

* Zidane in ''VideoGame/DissidiaFinalFantasy'' says exactly that during some dodges--the others get a smug "I'm right here!" Sephiroth tosses out a few more [[TheStoic reserved]] ones when he attacks.
* Jon Talbain /Gallon in ''VideoGame/{{Darkstalkers}}'' has the battle victory quote "Torioze!" which more or less translates to "you're too slow!"

--> "''You may have brute force - but you lack speed!''"
-->"''I have the speed of Olympus with me, mortal!''"
-->"'''''So''' slow.''"
-->"''I will always be faster than you!''"

* ''VideoGame/{{Prototype}}'': Captain Cross taunts you with this during his boss fight.
* ''Anime/DragonBallZ'' games will use this, or not, depending on the game. They vary from "Over here!" to "Yikes!" to just grunts or chuckles. Interestingly, sometimes the opposite of this happens and the other character expresses frustration with "Where are you?!" or similar phrases.
* Tsubaki will sometimes say this during her fights with Jin in ''VideoGame/BlazBlueContinuumShift''.
* Optimus Prime, of all people, can say this in ''VideoGame/TransformersDevastation'' when pulling off a perfect dodge, though all of the playable characters have their own taunts.

* Goenitz in ''VideoGame/TheKingOfFighters'' when he does his [[FlashStep Hyouga]] (Icy River/Glacier), and Vice when she does her roll recovery; both in Japanese.
-->'''Vice:''' ''"Osoi!"''\\
'''Goenitz:''' ''"Osoi desu ne."''

[[folder: Fan Works]]
* ''VideoGame/SonicEXE'' taunts the player with this line after Tails gets killed.
* ''VideoGame/VsSonicEXE'':
** Xenophanes's first song is titled "Too Slow", in reference to the real Sonic.EXE's BondOneLiner.
** [[InvertedTrope Inverted]] by [[Memes/SonicTheHedgehog Sanic]], whose song is titled "Too Fest".
** ''ComicBook/SonicTheComic'''s version of Super Sonic says this as one of his many mid-song voice lines.

* In ''Manga/{{Hellsing}}'', The Major says this word for word to Schrödinger. Schrödinger had, just moments ago, [[spoiler: gone from [[ThoseWackyNazis Millenium]] headquarters to London, gotten shot in the face, [[UnexplainedRecovery got better]] and went back to the base in a few minutes.]] He is not amused.

* ''{{Manga/Bleach}}'':

* Setsuna in ''Manga/MahouSenseiNegima'' said this in an unimpressed manner to Negi when she found that he wasn't quite focused on the fight.

* Goenitz in ''VideoGame/TheKingOfFighters'' when he does his [[FlashStep Hyouga]] (Icy River/Glacier).
-->''"Osoi desu ne."''
