[[AC:{{Anime}} and {{Manga}}]]

* [[CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass Seras Victoria]] seems to acquire a coat of blood whenever her SuperpoweredEvilSide kicks in. [[{{Gorn}} Given]] this is ''{{Hellsing}}'', [[AxeCrazy every major combatant]] probably qualifies at some point or another.
* Saya in ''BloodPlus'' when in her BeserkMode

[[AC:[[ComicBook Comic Books]]]]

[[AC:{{Film}} and {{Television}}]]

* [[KillBill O-ren Ishii]] covers herself in blood [[spoiler: after killing her parent's murderer]].

* [[TheAce Brock Samson]], bodyguard to the [[TheVentureBrothers Venture family]], on a disturbingly regular basis. Combined with FullFrontalAssault in Victor.Echo.November for a truly unsettling effect.

* Shizuo and Kida from ''{{Durarara}}!!''.

* Ladd and the Rail Tracer from ''{{Baccano}}!'' invoke this fairly often.

* When Ezio of ''[[AssassinCreed Assassin's Creed II]]'' kills his first target, the man who sentenced his brothers and father to death, he stabs the guy over and over in grief-stricken rage and then screams at the shocked onlookers while covered in the target's blood. Later, calmer kills have the blood fade quickly from Ezio's hands and clothes, but it lingers in that scene to add to the emotional charge.

* The "Rage" sections of ''{{Wet}}'' occur when Rubi shoots a mook at close range in a cut scene and gets blood splaced on her face, triggering Ribi-Vision.

* Characters get covered in blood after virtually every fight in ''DragonAge'', not to mention that your progress on the map screen is [[PaintTheTownRed marked by a literal trail of blood.]] (BioWare would like you to know that this game is ''[[DarkerAndEdgier edgy]]''.)

* The title character from ''{{Carrie}}'' was covered in pig blood and wore it after she went on her rampage.

* If you want to see what this looks like in RealLife, watch the 1992 Great Muta vs. Hiroshi Hase New Japan Pro Wrestling match. May not technically count, though, since the blood Muta's face is covered in is mostly his own. To this day, {{Smark}}s measure how profusely a wrestler bleeds on the "Muta Scale".

* Brother Blood from ''TeenTitans'' has a habit of doing this.

* Pretty much every follower of Khorne in ''WarHammer'' or ''WarHammer40000'', especially the World Eaters.

[[AC:[[ComicBook Comic Books]]]]
* "The Last Phantom" storyline out in comic book format now has Kit Walker using blood to approximate the cowl and mask of ''ThePhantom''.
* Brother Blood from ''TeenTitans'' has a habit of doing this.

A [[DuelToTheDeath battle for honor]], [[CurbStompBattle a one-]][[NoHoldsBarredBeatdown sided fight]], [[ExtremeMeleeRevenge getting even]], or just plain killing people can be very messy affairs. In the process, the victim may have accidentally sprayed some of their blood all over their attacker and [[BloodSplatteredInnocents others]]. Fortunately, the attacker doesn't seem to mind and will eventually walk around covered in blood as if it's no big deal. It may even result in them becoming even more excited and send them into [[UnstoppableRage a frenzy]].
