** In the omake from Chapter 55, Kiba makes fun of Sasuke by pointing out that the latter's haircut looks like a duck's butt. Upon hearing that, Sakura narrows her eyes towards Kiba and walks closer to him while cracking her knuckles before hurting him in a way that he makes a loud howl of pain that various animals could hear from afar.
** In the omake from Chapter 62, Kanji asks why the word 'kunoichi' is a thing. Tenten makes a passionate speech about why that word is a thing and how proud she is to wear that title. However, while grinning, Kanji asks why not using the other word, which is ''she''-nobi. Tenten is in disbelief that he asked that question just to make that {{pun}}. Soon after, she has some killing intent towards the boy, approaches him slowly, and cracks her knuckles before [[TranquilFury asking in a soft voice if he thinks everything she just said was a joke]]. The next paragraph indicates that Kanji now has [[CranialEruption a comically-large bump on his head that causes him pain]].

Knuckle Cracking happens when a character cracks their knuckles to show that they are ready to deal out a whuppin' or tackle a challenge. Frequently used as an intimidation tactic in fights, this is a particularly effective way of showing that TheStoic is bothered enough by someone to get serious. Cracking knuckles may also be sign that a character is ready to get to work on a particularly arduous task, especially one that requires a lot of muscle. Comes in two varieties: Type 1, shown to the right, involves raising one's hands and proceeding to use hand A to fold the fingers of hand B in towards hand B's palm, and then immediately using hand B to do the same with hand A. Type 2 involves cracking both hands at once by lacing the fingers together a la FingerTenting and bending them away from the palms, pushing one's hands either down towards the ground, forward away from your chest, or some angle in between, such that one's arms take on a wishbone shape. A less common variant, sometimes seen in martial arts films, involves cracking the knuckles one-handed by slowly and dramatically clenching one's hand into a fist.
