History Hammerspace / AnimeAndManga

* In ''Manga/FairyTail'': The mage Erza Scarlet has a nifty example of this, she can actually pull multiple weapons and armor from some weird personal dimension. The various gear-sets generally have specific amplifier enchantments.

* ''LightNovel/ShominSample'': The head maid Kujo is able to pull a giant pair of scissors out of nowhere as a threat to Kimito's "manhood", under the suspicion that he might not have a [[FauxYay muscle fetish]]. He even lampshades it at one point.

* Gokudera from ''Manga/Reborn2004'' keeps an unlimited supply of dynamite, which he seems to pull out of various parts of his body. His EvilCounterpart Belphegor does the same with [[KnifeNut knives]].

* ''Manga/ShominSample'': The head maid Kujo is able to pull a giant pair of scissors out of nowhere as a threat to Kimito's "manhood", under the suspicion that he might not have a [[FauxYay muscle fetish]]. He even lampshades it at one point.

* Amy Rose in ''Anime/SonicX'' has hammerspace for her Pico Pico hammer. She procures it visibly after [[spoiler:Sonic fails to return to their world with her]]. After launching a Hammer into the side of Eggman's airship's hull (he woke her up with a loudspeaker), he points out that she is unarmed. Close-up shot to the hand beside her thigh, and another Hammer appears in a puff of smoke. This happens six or seven more times, as each Hammer is launched into the airship's hull.

* Revy from ''Manga/BlackLagoon'': Even while wearing a belly cut sleeveless top with extremely short denim hot pants, she still manages to pull spare magazines out during any one of her number of shootouts, and I'm pretty sure her pair of shoulder holsters don't have infinite pockets on the sides. Even when she's dressed more practically during the Yakuza story arc (skirt, winter hose, and a long sleeve winter shirt) the location of all her magazines remains a mystery.

* ''Anime/{{Pokemon}}'':
** It has a few moments early on where Jessie, James, and Meowth seemingly produce weapons, pulled-from-nowhere Hammers, and other items to which they likely wouldn't have room for in their uniforms (which don't seem to have any visible pockets, except for James's pants). This, however, does ''not'' apply to Poké Balls, which have been shown on-screen to change size for storage in pockets or on belts.

* In episode 9 of the anime "LightNovel/ReZero", Rem pulls out her morning star weapon out of nowhere.

** Erza's power is a type of magic called "Requip" which allows mages to store objects in pocket dimensions and then summon them whenever they need them. [[MagesMarksman Bisca Connell]] is another user of this type of magic, with her focus being [[TheGunslinger guns]].

* ''Manga/RanmaOneHalf'':
** Mousse's fighting style revolves around this trope -- he secretes impossibly large amounts of junk about his person and then whips various bits and pieces out to use as weapons as he needs it. This is played up in the anime, where Mousse has pulled out such weapons as: eight katanas (wielded 4 in either hand) at once in the first NonSerialMovie, giant tops with razor-bladed edges, and a massive bomb bigger than he was ([[LampshadeHanging promptly lampshaded]] by Ranma, who pointed out there was no way Mousse could possibly have been hiding something that big). His favorite appears to be a swan-shaped training potty with which he smacks his opponents in the face. Mousse even manages to hide weapons ''as a duck'', producing them from under his wings instead of his sleeves. He's quite insistent during his introduction arc that [[ImpossiblyAwesomeMagicTrick there's nothing magical about his skill]], though.
** Genma in panda form is fond of pulling signs (often of the DeadpanSnarker kind) out of hammerspace.
* Lum from the ''Manga/UruseiYatsura'' anime starts using a large mallet on [[IronButtmonkey Ataru]] starting around episode #110, possibly to break up the monotony of electrocuting him.
** Usually used by many of the characters against each other in lieu of kicking the character out of scene.
** Cherry tends to appear through similar arbitrarily abrupt means usually accompanied by an explosion.
* When the author of ''Manga/{{Hellsing}}'' was asked where Anderson takes his bayonets from, he answered, "From the fourth dimension of course."
* In ''Anime/MobileSuitGundamWing: Endless Waltz'', Wing Zero drops into the sea with a beam saber after fighting Wufei in the atmosphere, having been picked up in space carrying no other weapons. When we next see Zero, the suit is hovering in the sky, aiming at the Presidential Shelter with its twin buster rifle.
** The manga version tries to explain this by showing the rifle mounted on Zero's backpack in a few scenes; this doesn't line up with the anime, but it's still an explanation.
* ''Anime/{{Pokemon}}'':
** It has a few moments early on where Jessie, James, and Meowth seemingly produce weapons, pulled-from-nowhere Hammers, and other items to which they likely wouldn't have room for in their uniforms (which don't seem to have any visible pockets, except for James's pants). This, however, does ''not'' apply to Poké Balls, which have been shown on-screen to change size for storage in pockets or on belts.
** The Poké Balls themselves, on the other hand... Once a Pokémon is caught, it can be used to carry that Pokémon, regardless of the Pokémon's size or weight, even a Pokémon the size of a Wailord. (There's even a type of Apricorn Poké Ball called a Heavy Ball that specializes in catching large and heavy Pokémon.) This is naturally explained by technology on the subject, although there are hints that [[AWizardDidIt there were magical versions]] of devices used to hold Pokémon centuries ago.
** The backpacks, which are not very big, but contain anything from large food supplies to camping tables to sleeping bags and even an umbrella (in ''Anime/PokemonTheFirstMovie'', for example).
* In the manga ''Cafe Kichijouji'', during Jun's BerserkButton moment, he picks up a large rock to crush Maki with, who in turn shouts, "Where did you pull that natural boulder from?!"
* In ''Manga/DragonBall'', Bulma does this more than once to punish Roshi for his perverted antics. Lunch also does this in her evil mode, but with ''machineguns''.
** There's also the time where, after escaping from an abandoned pirate hideout, Bulma reaches into her bikini bottoms and pulls out an ''impossibly massive'' diamond. Take that as you will.
* ''Manga/{{Doraemon}}'''s four-dimensional pocket. It's shown to be larger on the inside and can store all manner of things including a telephone booth twice as tall as Doraemon.

* Amy Rose in ''Anime/SonicX'' has hammerspace for her Pico Pico hammer. She procures it visibly after [[spoiler:Sonic fails to return to their world with her]]. After launching a Hammer into the side of Eggman's airship's hull (he woke her up with a loudspeaker), he points out that she is unarmed. Close-up shot to the hand beside her thigh, and another Hammer appears in a puff of smoke. This happens six or seven more times, as each Hammer is launched into the airship's hull.
* In ''Anime/{{Potemayo}}'', Guchuko can carry an enormous amount of stuff in her pants. She once produces a pile of corn cobs that was taller than she was.
* The pirate costumes from one episode of the ''Anime/{{Tamagotchi}}'' anime appear to come from hammerspace.

* Shana of ''LightNovel/ShakuganNoShana'' stores her flaming sword Nietono no Shana inside her [[BadassLongcoat cape]]. This is actually exactly what the cape is designed for, according to Alastor.
** In the OVA, [[spoiler:when Yuji accidentally switches bodies with Shana]], Yuji and Shana put a large portion of what appears to be a junk yard of sorts into her coat.

* In ''Anime/HugttoPrettyCure'', Harry the hamster has a magic suitcase that can seemingly pull endless baby bottles and diapers out without running out.
* The point of [[spoiler:Trace Projection]] magecraft in ''VisualNovel/FateStayNight'' as used by [[spoiler:Archer and later Shirou]]. When using this magecraft, [[spoiler:Archer crafts and stores analyzed weapons inside of his [[FisherKing Reality Marble]]]], and summons the copies into the real world through his own body when needed. Similarly, [[spoiler:Gilgamesh]]'s Noble Phantasm is a portal to hammerspace that he uses to summon his belongings -- often at [[ReverseShrapnel high speed]].
** Servants have the ability to store their weapons and armor in an astral form, which reduces the amount of prana required from their Master.
* Sanzo of ''Manga/{{Saiyuki}}'' keeps a fan ''somewhere'' on his person which apparently is meant only for beating the snot out of Goku and Gojyo when they get too noisy for Sanzo's liking. The Chin Yisou arc also has him get a newspaper while in the middle of a forest, and he appears to be carrying around his priest crown inside his robes, judging from the rare occasions he actually bothers to put it on (he normally doesn't wear it because it feels uncomfortable).
* Gokudera from ''Manga/Reborn2004'' keeps an unlimited supply of dynamite, which he seems to pull out of various parts of his body. His EvilCounterpart Belphegor does the same with [[KnifeNut knives]].
* The ''Manga/OnePiece'' manga recently showed off Blanmenco, the 6th division leader of the Whitebeard Pirates, whose [[SuperpowerLottery Devil Fruit power]] seems to be pockets on his body out of which he can pull anything. To drive the point home, the item he pulls out in battle is a [[VisualPun hammer bigger than himself]].
** Another example comes from a 20-second bit of filler in Impel Down. When first starting at the prison, [[TheStarscream Hannyabal]] is tricked to turn his back by a sexy female pirate named [[{{Stripperiffic}} Olive]], who then bashes him over the head with a [[DropTheHammer giant hammer]].
** Garp somehow manages to take out a [[http://www.mangafox.com/manga/one_piece/v45/c439/9.html humongous iron ball]] that's larger than the very battleship he is standing on.
** Paulie. Without the power of a Devil Fruit, he must have a ''lot'' of Hammer Space for the massive quantity of ropes he uses as weapons. Seriously, he pulled out enough to support sixty some-odd humans, two giants, and two King Bulls (aquatic horses as big as giants).
** Wapol and Capone Bege can both be considered as living examples of this trope. The former can eat items (and people) much larger than himself without his own size changing much. The latter can hold an entire fortress of soldiers within his body. Both require a [[SuperpowerLottery Devil Fruit power]].
* ''Manga/NegimaMagisterNegiMagi'' is [[{{Troperiffic}} required]] to include this trope. Many cases are actually justified as being magical constructs, such as Asuna's sword. But of the rest...
** Kaede's shurikens, which are over six feet from tip to tip! Her classmates (and other folks) often wonder [[LampshadeHanging where on Earth]] she was carrying the things.
** Her ''pactio'' artifact is a cloak that contains a whole house in it and makes her invisible, being utterly pointless as she is already a master in that. But having a portable ClownCarBase does come in handy.
** Mana reveals later on that she keeps an alternate dimension to store her ammo in. [[UnorthodoxReload It makes for an awesome reload]].
** She also pulls a {{BFG}} from VictoriasSecretCompartment.
* In ''Manga/GAGeijutsukaArtDesignClass'': while carrying a comb and a sewing set in her blazer is not surprising, but when Miyabi "Professor" Oomichi pulled out a bag of dye fixative from her blazer...
-->'''[[{{Bokukko}} Tomokane]]''': Are you always [[CrazyPrepared prepared for a trip or something]]?
-->'''Professor''': ''(Pulls out an oral care set)''
* ''Manga/FushigiYuugi'' gets bonus points for doing this ''in an environment reminiscent of Ancient China''. Items include sunglasses, a rake and a bullhorn.

* Hitagi Senjougahara from ''LightNovel/{{Bakemonogatari}}'' carries more office supplies in her schoolgirl uniform than one could fit in a reasonably-sized crate, and most of the supplies are awfully pointy, as well. It's probably best not to pry into where she keeps them, or she might [[ImprobableWeaponUser demonstrate what they're used for]].
* In ''Manga/FairyTail'': The mage Erza Scarlet has a nifty example of this, she can actually pull multiple weapons and armor from some weird personal dimension. The various gear-sets generally have specific amplifier enchantments.
** Averted with Erza's luggage, a running gag where she always packs a trailer (which she pulls herself) when heading out on missions.
** Erza's power is a type of magic called "Requip" which allows mages to store objects in pocket dimensions and then summon them whenever they need them. [[MagesMarksman Bisca Connell]] is another user of this type of magic, with her focus being [[TheGunslinger guns]].
* In ''Manga/{{Naruto}}'', objects can be stored as kanji on special scrolls. The evil medic [[spoiler:Kabuto]] keeps a collection of bodies (eww) on such a scroll, and Tenten's fighting style centers around producing stored weapons this way.
** This is also shown in the fight between Sasuke and Itachi. Both of them have wristbands containing an uncountable amount of shuriken. The use of scrolls as Hammerspace is debatable, since most examples of scrolls in the anime are summoning scrolls. This does imply that the items being summoned are kept somewhere...
** The space provided by Kamui, a Mangekyo Sharingan ability, has been put to creative uses by [[spoiler:Uchiha Obito]], such as for storing weapons, sharingan eyes, captured enemies; performing surgeries, etc. Kakashi can access the same place [[spoiler:because his Sharingan eye used to be Obito's.]]
* This seems to be where the helmet from Viral's mech Enki is kept in ''Anime/TengenToppaGurrenLagann''.
** Alternately, Spiral Energy did it because it's cooler that way.

* ''WebVideo/YuGiOhTheAbridgedSeries'' lampshades Yami Marik's ability to produce his Millennium Rod artifact out of the air through the explanation "Now I'm going to use my Millennium Rod, which I keep clenched between my buttocks, to send this duel to the Shadow Realm!"
* Luna from ''Franchise/SailorMoon'': All those transformation items, disguise pens and magic computers she produced from thin air. And Artemis in ''Manga/CodeNameSailorV''.
** In early episodes of TheNineties [[Manga/SailorMoon anime]], we see her do an aerial somersault and produce some in a flash of light. Hammerspace is probably the best explanation for where the Scouts keep their wands, Ami's computer, and Usagi's Pen and various wands and sceptres. Tux seems to produce roses as a power.
** Actually, any transformation power could qualify -- where do your normal clothes go when you're in a mystically-armored fuku?
* Dankai from ''Anime/YutoriChan'' is noted for the variety of things she keeps in her personal hammerspace. Items include the traditional HyperspaceMallet, a motivational sign, a PaperFanOfDoom and a [[BatterUp nail bat]].
* {{Lampshaded}} by Hadyeh, an AxCrazy maid/bodyguard/retainer to a Middle-Eastern lady in ''LightNovel/LadiesVersusButlers!''.
--> '''Akiharu:''' Where did you pull that gigantic sword from in the first place?
--> '''Hadyeh:''' Please don't ask such embarrassing things.
* Maka from ''Manga/SoulEater'' occasionally pulls a book out of Hammerspace to hit people with.
** A VERY large book.
** Also, Shinigami-sama's hands.
* Revy from ''Manga/BlackLagoon'': Even while wearing a belly cut sleeveless top with extremely short denim hot pants, she still manages to pull spare magazines out during any one of her number of shootouts, and I'm pretty sure her pair of shoulder holsters don't have infinite pockets on the sides. Even when she's dressed more practically during the Yakuza story arc (skirt, winter hose, and a long sleeve winter shirt) the location of all her magazines remains a mystery.

* ''[[Anime/YuGiOhFirstAnimeSeries Yu-Gi-Oh]]'', season 0 (The Shadow Games). Yami Yuugi frequently pulls out random (or illegal, or in illegal amounts) objects that would be rather impractical to carry around:
** Episode 1: he makes appear a rope of decent length and two decks of playing cards, as well as tape, and tapes one to the spire of a building in milliseconds.
** In a later episode, he not only pulls out several bottles of chloroform, but a considerable amount of wire and some sort of pins, as well as strings the chloroform bottles from the ceiling and pins the wires to a clock in milliseconds.

* ''Manga/{{Sekirei}}'': When Matsu confronts Musubi in the bath, wearing nothing but a towel, she pulls a bazooka out of nowhere. Minato even lampshades this.
* Hime of ''Manga/PrincessResurrection'' has been known to use some [[ImprobableWeaponUser interesting weapons]], her signature being a [[ChainsawGood chainsaw]]. Where she keeps that chainsaw when not in use is anybody's guess.
* Even though Millie from ''Manga/{{Trigun}}'' is a tall woman, there's no way her "stungun" would fit beneath her skirt.
* The {{Magical Girl}}s of [[Anime/PuellaMagiMadokaMagica Puella Magi Madoka Magica]] use magic to mass produce temporary weaponry just for the extravagance of it - Mami's rifles and Sayaka's swords, for example - but watching Akemi Homura [[HyperspaceArsenal magic hundred of bazookas and rocket launchers]] [[NothingUpMySleeve in and out of her sleeve]] (obscured by her buckler) is especially noteworthy in that these weapons are real.
** Hammerspace is actually one of Homura's powers -- the weapons she pulls out from her buckler have all been smuggled inside by means of her time-stopping powers, and in one instance she is shown smuggling an entire military base's arsenal inside her buckler.
* At one point early in ''Manga/RurouniKenshin's'' Kyoto arc, the title character pulls an enormous parsnip out of his shirt (to test a knife's edge with), to dumbfounded expressions on his companions' faces.
* In ''Manga/YuYuHakusho'', when rescuing Yukina, Kuwabara sports a "fighting headband of love" that [[HandWave materialized from his fighting spirit.]]
* ''Manga/HanaukyoMaidTeam La Verite''. FieryRedhead Ryuuka can pull all sorts of weapons (including pistols, hand grenades and assault rifles) out of nowhere, as she proved in one titanic battle with a HumongousMecha created by Ikuyo Suzuki.
* In the first part of the ninth episode of ''Anime/PantyAndStockingWithGarterbelt'' Panty, Scanty and Kneesocks manage to pull their weapons out of thin air despite being in swimsuits, and therefore having no panties or knee socks to transform into weapons.
* In ''Webcomic/HetaliaAxisPowers'' there have been multiple times where characters have pulled objects out of nowhere.
* In ''LightNovel/NyarukoCrawlingWithLove'', no matter where he goes, Mahiro Yasaka '''always''' has a [[ImprobableWeaponUser fork]] handy for when Nyarko, Cuuko, and (rarely) Hasuta get out of hand; we later learn it's a skill he [[LikeFatherLikeSon inherited from his mother Yoriko]], and she's actually even scarier with them than Mahiro. One episode shows Yoriko wearing bandoliers of forks all over her body, but this is a ShoutOut to [[Series/KamenRiderDouble Kamen Rider Eternal]] rather than an justification.
** Episode 9 of the second TV series establishes that the forks are mundane in origin by showing Mahiro getting them in bulk from the dollar store.
* ''Anime/LupinFamilyAllStars'' shows Goemon sitting crosslegged, in nothing more than shorts and a tattered jacket. He pulls out the Zantetsuken from his hair?
* In episode 10 of ''Anime/CardcaptorSakura'', Tomoyo at one point pulls her cell phone out to call [[MentorMascot Kero for advice]], despite having no pockets... and seemingly reaching behind ''Sakura'' instead of herself. Sakura then asks: [[LampshadeHanging "W-where did you get that from?"]]
* In Anime/VoltesV, Finger Missiles, Voltes Bazooka and Chain Knuckles are too big to have all been stored in the titular robot's arms.
* Actually '''averted''' in ''Anime/SandsOfDestruction''. While the original video game had Morte pulling her {{BFS}} out of nowhere, the anime she's shown to always be carrying it wrapped up in cloth using a leather strap. If she isn't currently holding it, it's likely somewhere nearby, leaning against a convenient wall or tree; she never simply produces it from thin air and then has it vanish after the fight.

* Actually mentioned in the fifth OVA for ''Anime/GirlsUndPanzer''. Yukari is known for being CrazyPrepared all the time, and her two longest friends Hana and Saori both admit that they have absolutely no clue how she manages to carry it all with her. In the OVA alone, she manages to produce several sheets of newspaper (for use as boot insulation), hand warmers, a blanket, an entrenching tool, and a kerosene lantern.

* ''Manga/CityHunter'': Kaori's handbag was observed containing not only three hammers of various sizes, but also her pistol, a pepper spray, a taser, a hand grenade and a defibrillator. Later in the same story arc she had also another bigger hammer and some food.
* In ''GO-GO Anime/{{Tamagotchi}}!'' episode 35, Neenetchi, not realizing she is in Himespetchi's body, goes to talk to her brother Orenetchi. Neenetchi gets confused when Orenetchi addresses her by Himespetchi's name, and Orenetchi pulls a mirror out of nowhere to show her what she looks like.
* ''Anime/AkudamaDrive'': Doctor carries several operation kits worth of scalpels and other medical instruments in her longcoat, as well as dozens of bottles of different chemicals.

* In ''Manga/FairyTail'' the mage Erza Scarlet has a nifty example of this, she can actually pull multiple weapons and armor from some weird personal dimension. The various gear-sets generally have specific amplifier enchantments.

** Mousse's fighting style revolves around this trope -- he secretes impossibly large amounts of junk about his person and then whips various bits and pieces out to use as weapons as he needs it. This is played up in the anime, where Mousse has pulled out such weapons as: eight katanas (wielded 4 in either hand) at once in the first NonSerialMovie, giant tops with razor-bladed edges, and a massive bomb bigger than he was ([[LampshadeHanging promptly lampshaded]] by Ranma, who pointed out there was no way Mousse could possibly have been hiding something that big). His favorite appears to be a swan-shaped training potty with which he smacks his opponents in the face. Mousse even manages to hide weapons ''as a duck'', producing them from under his wings instead of his sleeves. He's quite insistent during his introduction arc that [[CharlesAtlasSuperpower there's nothing magical about his skill]], though.

-->'''Gang Leader:''' Where were you hiding all of those?!

* In ''LightNovel/HaiyoreNyarkoSan'', no matter where he goes, Mahiro Yasaka '''always''' has a [[ImprobableWeaponUser fork]] handy for when Nyarko, Cuuko, and (rarely) Hasuta get out of hand; we later learn it's a skill he [[LikeFatherLikeSon inherited from his mother Yoriko]], and she's actually even scarier with them than Mahiro. One episode shows Yoriko wearing bandoliers of forks all over her body, but this is a ShoutOut to [[Series/KamenRiderDouble Kamen Rider Eternal]] rather than an justification.

* Sana from ''Manga/KodomoNoOmocha'' has a yellow and red rubber hammer she pulls out of nowhere to hit people, usually Akito. It varies in size, from one the size of her hand to one bigger then her body. Her mom has one too.

* ''Anime/{{Doraemon}}'''s four-dimensional pocket. It's shown to be larger on the inside and can store all manner of things including a telephone booth twice as tall as Doraemon.

* Gokudera from ''Manga/KatekyoHitmanReborn'' keeps an unlimited supply of dynamite, which he seems to pull out of various parts of his body. His EvilCounterpart Belphegor does the same with [[KnifeNut knives]].

* ''Manga/MahouSenseiNegima'' is [[{{Troperiffic}} required]] to include this trope. Many cases are actually justified as being magical constructs, such as Asuna's sword. But of the rest...

* In ''WebComic/AxisPowersHetalia'' there have been multiple times where characters have pulled objects out of nowhere.

* ''Anime/HanaukyoMaidTai La Verite''. FieryRedhead Ryuuka can pull all sorts of weapons (including pistols, hand grenades and assault rifles) out of nowhere, as she proved in one titanic battle with a HumongousMecha created by Ikuyo Suzuki.

** Its likely that the iron ball is actually the ships anchor.

* In ''Animation/GuardianFairyMichel'', Salome makes sure the Black Hammer Gang lives up to their name by pulling hammers from nowhere.

* Amy Rose in ''Anime/SonicX'' has hammerspace for her Pico Pico hammer.
** She procures it visibly after [[spoiler:Sonic fails to return to Mobius with her]]. After launching a Hammer into the side of Eggman's airship's hull (he woke her up with a loudspeaker), he points out that she is unarmed. Close-up shot to the hand beside her thigh, and another Hammer appears in a puff of smoke. This happens six or seven more times, as each Hammer is launched into the airship's hull. Maybe she has [[Manga/DragonBall Capsule Corp]] technology?

** [[{{Fanon}} Generally considered]] to be where [[{{Tsundere}} Akane Tendō]] draws her HyperspaceMallet.

* The pirate costumes from one episode of the ''VideoGame/{{Tamagotchi}}'' anime appear to come from hammerspace.

* [[{{Fanon}} Generally considered]] to be where [[{{Tsundere}} Akane Tendo]] draws her HyperspaceMallet from in ''Manga/RanmaOneHalf''.
