* In ''VideoGame/GodHand'', Gene's more powerful God Roulette attacks (Dragon Kick, 100 Fist and Homerun God to name a few) end with the enemy being launched in the milky way (where they already are), like the awesome credit song puts it.

** Surprisingly, the ''Sun & Moon'' has it averted altogether, instead having a wild Bewear showing up to grab them and then run off. It even gets [[DefiedTrope defied]] at one point, when Bewear ''catches them in midair'' just when it seems they're gonna get blasted into the sky.

** Twice in Episode #205 [[{{Filler{{ during the kemari game]]: once when Ururu as the referee throws the ball up into the sky, and again when Jinta knocks Kon (in Ichigo's body) into the sky.
** In episode #213, Tessai throws Kon (in Ichigo's body) through a hole in the ceiling of Kisuke Urahara's underground.

** Episode 24, Elfman punches Totomaru, who was frozen by Gray. Added with Elfman's Speech during the punch and a 'wow' sound effect when a twinkle appeared

** Episode 51: Happy becomes a twinkle as well when he makes a comment about Gray being shirtless and stalking girls. Before he could get to finish his sentence of Gray is a giant pervert, he got punched into the sky by Gray.

* Used to great effect in ''Manga/MyHeroAcademia'' when All Might does this to a super-durable genetically engineered monster. All Might was on a strict time limit and didn't have time to subdue his opponent, so to remove it from the equation, he pummeled the monster faster than it could absorb the impacts until it was weak enough to be sent into the fucking stratosphere. That's how you get to be the world's best hero.

-->'''Aizawa:''' Distance... infinite.

-->'''Ash:''' Hey, what if that star is actually Team Rocket, sent flying by that oddly-coloured Metagross and yelling "we're blasting off ''agaaaiin?''\\

* ''Manga/{{Bleach}}'' anime:
** Episode 37. After Tatsufusa Enjoji, the assistant adjutant and 3rd seat of the Eighth Division confronts Chad and does a lot of boasting, Chad knocks him into the sky with a single punch.

* Happens to Masked Osodashi (and rarely his cohorts) occassionaly in ''Jankenman''.

** Anpanman himselfs gets this, either if Baikinman successfully punches him back, or just an inverse from flying.
