* ''[[VideoGame/BloonsTowerDefense Bloons TD 5]]'' features Blade Maelstrom as the [[LimitBreak activated ability]] for the Tack Shooter. It sends out a rotating storm of blades with infinite pierce, making them great at taking down {{Zerg Rush}}es of Bloons, and it recharges a lot faster than most other abilities. ''[=BTD6=]'' adds an upgraded version, the Super Maelstrom, which shoots twice as many blades for a much longer period of time, letting it decimate even more Bloons with every use.

* In ''VisualNovel/UminekoNoNakuKoroNi'', most fights are fought by using wedges of truth created by Red Truth (the absolute truth) and Blue Truth (theories that can pierce the red truth or be denied by them), though this trope only pops up in two instances.
** First, in the Episode 4 Tea Party where Battler tries to get through Beatrice's riddles, [[spoiler: he ends up piercing them with these en masse, ending with Beato skewered by many lances that appear from the ground]].
** The second occurs in Episode 8 where Battler and Bernkastel have one fight to determine how the story will end for Ange. Bernkastel abides by the game's rules, where she provides riddles that Battler must answer, lest he'll be skewered by them. However, because there's no set time by which the riddles must be answered or limit as to how many can be thrown, Bernkastel takes advantage of this and decides to throw all of her riddles at once, making them take the form of blue wings made of blades, which end up turning into an eight headed Orochi whose very teeth, scales, ''everything'' is made up of the blades!
