A Twinkle in the Sky | comment |
Any object, if launched with sufficient force, will sail clean over the horizon and vanish into the distant sky. A moment after it disappears, a four-pointed "twinkle" will appear in the spot where it was last seen, sometimes rotating briefly, along with a high-pitched "ringing" noise. If the object is potentially explosive, it will blow up after the twinkle. It's also sometimes used to show that something is coming down from the sky. This particular use may be true, as in the Second World War, Japanese AA gunners on ships were trained to watch for the gleam of an approaching dive bomber's canopy. Because after that, the only indication that something was coming was the whistling of bombs falling. In some media, particularly anime and video games, this will happen to characters. Comedic recurring villains seem to be especially prone to this trope, as it's an easy way to show that they're clearly defeated and out of the way for now without having to kill or otherwise permanently inconvenience them. It's also a common fate of anybody on the receiving end of a powerful enough Megaton Punch or Home-Run Hitter. Regardless of how far they're launched, they can be expected to show up again with no lasting damage, usually with no word on how they survived or where they landed. |

At the beginning of Mazinkaiser this happened to none other than Kouji Kabuto, when the Mechanical Beast attacking the Institute grabbed Mazinger's Pilder with Kouji inside and threw it away.

This happens twice in Tamagotchi! Miracle Friends episode 7. When Coffretchi applies makeup to Elephantotchi, the powder makes him want to sneeze, causing him to run around; right before he does so, he flings his owner off his back and into the sky, and he disappears with a twinkle. A few minutes later, Smartotchi and X are hit by Elephantotchi and also disappear into the sky with a twinkle. | |

Bleach: After Tatsufusa Enjoji, the 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. In the next arc, Hiyori jumps into the sky while carrying Orihime. Twice in Episode #205 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. |

Guilty Gear: Slayer's Instant Kill involves punching an opponent into the sky and then reciting a haiku. When he completes the poem, there's a twinkle in the sky right before "Destroyed" is announced. May's Instant Kill does this too in the later Xrd games, as the girl cheerfully blasts her opponent out of a cannon into the wild blue yonder. |

In Lufia: Curse of the Sinistrals, after the party fights the Doom Eye, Dekar shows up to send it flying into orbit with his Exploding Sword attack. The twinkle's even accompanied by the "puzzle complete!" tune. | |

Happens quite a few times in the Kirby series: The icon for "Throw" ability in Kirby's Adventure depicts Kirby tossing something so hard that it becomes a twinkle in the sky. In Kirby's Epic Yarn, Kirby and Prince Fluff dispatch Yin-Yarn by hurling him into the sky. In Kirby: Planet Robobot, it's possible to get knocked by a large enemy or stage obstacle into the background, where this is the result. (If said enemy or obstacle doesn't knock you into the screen.) May also apply to its predecessor game, Kirby: Triple Deluxe (where the latter definitely applied). In Kirby Star Allies, this happens to Francisca and Flamberge after you beat them for the second time. When Kirby delivers the final blow to King Dedede in Kirby Fighters Deluxe, the latter goes flying into the sky. In Kirby Battle Royale, Dedede is given the Team Rocket treatment again after his Dededestroyer Z is destroyed. And in Kirby Fighters 2, Dedede and Meta Knight are sent flying after Kirby and his partner finish them with the Buddy Star Blaster. |

Mobile Suit Gundam 00: Happens twice while Setsuna is piloting Gundam Exia. The first during the very first episode. The second during the final episode. Although it is justified considering that the Gundams in question actually emit sparkles. Patrick is often being blown away. Kind of played with though, in that unlike Team Rocket, it's actually surprising that he survives when this happens. |

Soreike! Anpanman: Baikinman and his cohorts are usually taken care of in this manner — sent flying to the horizon screaming "Bai baikiiin!" at least once per episode. Anpanman himself gets this, either if Baikinman successfully punches him back, or just an inverse from flying. |

In The Transformers finale of the three-part episode, "Rebirth, Part 3", Galvatron opens the Plasma Energy Chamber on Earth intending to destroy Earth, Cybertron and possibly the whole galaxy with the plasma energies. He and the other Decepticons try to escape aboard Scorponok's ship mode, but they take off too late, and are hit by a wild flux of energy from the chamber, which whips Scorponok and the whole Decepticon crew inside far, far away, making them a twinkle at the distance in the darkness of space. | |

Parodied in The Big Bad Fox and Other Tales. The Delivery Stork, upon being revealed as a lazy bastard who faked his wing's injuries, is catapulted into the sky and makes this. However, since he's an actor in a play, he lands in front of the stage and, upon being asked if he's okay by a co-worker, dismisses this as simply an acting trick. | |

Persona 4: Chie's Galactic Punt Follow-up Attacknote a special, souped-up physical attack that has a chance of triggering when a party member lands a critical hit or hits an enemy's weak spot, unlocked by hitting rank 3 in their Social Link allows the Cute Bruiser to kick an enemy (and the occasional Mini-Boss) into the orbital frame. This makes hers the most powerful in the game, as every other character's simply deals a huge amount of damage and renders a target dizzy, whereas Chie's is an instant kill attack. The move returns as Chie's instant death special attack in Persona 4: Arena. | |

Harmful Park has a stage where you fight an inflatable dinosaur-like monster, being pumped by two mooks you cannot target. If you defeat the boss, it's subsequent explosion will blow the mooks behind it into the background until they're reduced to two dainty twinkles. | |

Ned's Newt In "Planes, Trains, and Newtmobiles", a rocket launches off to Russia with Ned and Newton in it, and when it flies off we pan up to the sky where it vanishes into a star before we cut to a view from space. A similar rocket launches and twinkles in "Live and Let Dad" with Ned and Newton inside like last time, only it follows Dad's rocket and halfway though it initiates ejection sequence. |

In some animated episodes of Getter Robo, the titular robot's Getter 3 form has a special "Dai-Setsu-Zan-Oroshi" move that involves wrapping enemies in its extending arms and hurling them sumo-style into the air in a whirlwind. The enemy is thrown to the air so far, he disappears in a twinkle. This was even used in Getter 3's appearances in some Super Robot Wars games. | |

Super Mario Bros.: The Goomba King suffers this fate when the bridge of Goomba Fortress unfolds in Paper Mario 64, sending him away. Happens to the player in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door when they're launched into the sky from a cannon. It happens again to Lord Crump when his robot explodes. Bizarrely, the giant Cheep Chomp from Long Fall Falls, in Paper Mario: Sticker Star flies away after reaching the high falls, cue this trope. When you use a secret cannon in New Super Mario Bros. and New Super Mario Bros. Wii. Happens in reverse when Mario returns from a galaxy in Super Mario Galaxy. In Mario Party 3, there's a scene where Bowser sneaks up and startles Princess Daisy. She slaps him so hard that she sends him flying. That's probably the reason why Bowser only kidnaps Peach. Mario Party: Star Rush: All of the boss fights with Bowser end with his giant robot exploding, sending the Koopa King flying into space, leaving a twinkle in his wake. In Super Princess Peach, Princess Peach sends Bowser flying by whacking him with her Parasol of Pain after defeating him in the final battle. Can happen to Mario in Paper Mario: The Origami King if he fails the Sudden Death round of the Shy Guys Finish Last quiz show: the poor lad get blown out of a cannon straight through the roof into the skies before this trope occurs. Happens to Wario during the "Punch!" minigame in WarioWare: Touched!. Several times in the Wario Land series. Happens to Captain Syrup in some of the endings for Wario Land II and to the second boss in Wario Land: Shake It!, Hot Roderick, after Wario's final attack against him. Raphael the Raven's death animation in Yoshi's Island. |

Thorfinn and Thorkell's last fight in Vinland Saga almost comes to an abrupt end when Thorkell kicks Thorfinn into the distance. The boy slams into a tree, breaks his arm, most of his ribs, and then gets back up. Thorkell also pulls of a reversed one, when Askeladd's men notice a Twinkle in the Sky that turns out to be a spear thrown by Thorkell from several miles away and completely impales a man through his chainmail and through his heart. Yes, that man is a pure monster. |

Persona: Persona 4: Chie's Galactic Punt Follow-up Attacknote a special, souped-up physical attack that has a chance of triggering when a party member lands a critical hit or hits an enemy's weak spot, unlocked by hitting rank 3 in their Social Link allows the Cute Bruiser to kick an enemy (and the occasional Mini-Boss) into the orbital frame. This makes hers the most powerful in the game, as every other character's simply deals a huge amount of damage and renders a target dizzy, whereas Chie's is an instant kill attack. The move returns as Chie's instant death special attack in Persona 4: Arena. Persona 5: In Futaba's Palace, Ann throws Morgana so high into the air it results in Morgana temporarily disappearing in a tiny flash of light, before the cat hurdles back towards Earth. |

Used to great effect in My Hero Academia when All Might does this to the Nomu, 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 Nomu 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. During the physical exam for hero school, Uraraka gets the high score for distance throwing by using her zero-gravity power to gently toss the ball out of orbit, ending in a twinkle. |

Final Fantasy: In Final Fantasy IX, summoning Fenrir has it use Terrestrial Rage with Titan's aid. Titan attacks by punching all foes skyward into the sky, turning into stars (though they come back down and crash). At one point in the original Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles, you're confronted by the game's resident Goldfish Poop Gang, who demand a toll to continue down the road. Earlier on, the team's resident Moogle declared a wish to become a star - if you choose not to pay the toll, you'll barge onwards, knocking the Moogle into the sky. Although you're never shown the Moogle "turning into" a star, you do get this gem: Final Fantasy XIV has the Hildibrand Adventures which take place after the end of each expansion's main story. By the time the overarching Hildibrand story is done in Patch X.5, Hildibrand is launched like this in some form or another to the next expansion's region for further adventures. |

Some installments of the Ultra Series, particularly if they were made after the 2010s, does this... Return of Ultraman has Ultraman Jack's battle against Varricane, with Jack sending the monster into space. Cue twinkle in the galaxy. Ultraman Ginga has Ginga and Victory fighting Bemlar and Bemstar, simultaneously. After Ginga destroys Bemlar, Bemstar gets stunned for a moment... until Victory unleashed his Ex-Red King Knuckle and socks Bemstar in the face until the monster ends up in the stratosphere, complete with a twinkle. Ultraman X: In the episode "We Are Nebula!", the opposing alien team consisting of the aliens Babalou, Dada, Kemurian and Zettonian, decides to cheat by turning themselves kaiju-sized, necessitating Ultraman X to interfere... by using his Gomora armour to send all four aliens vanishing into the skies, complete with four twinkles. |

Fairy Tail is rather fond of this. 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 In Episode 51 of the anime, 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. This is also the fate of Bluenote Stinger after being defeated by an angry Gildarts Clive. For bonus Laser-Guided Karma points, the victim in question would often ask his opponents "Can you fly?" to reference if they could hope to stand up to his power. Natsu get this when Erza stepped on the trap that was intended for Gray in the 2nd OVA. In Episode 126, this happens to the Jiggle Butt Gang once Natsu gets over his motion sickness. They launch themselves again, accidentally, and, despite missing the twinkle this time, it is accompanied by the trio shouting "WE'RE FLYING OFF AGAAAAIIIINNN!". In Episode 154, Happy gets this again after he mocks and epically trolls Erza. |

Yu-Gi-Oh! The Abridged Series: After Tristan defeats Florence, he gets rid of the evil ring (Millennium Ring) "by throwing it randomly in a careless direction." As it flies through the air, Florence's voice can be heard shouting "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO....", and then says "Twinkle" when the ring vanishes into the forest. Later on, Marik kicks Crump out of Tea's mind. We then see Crump's spirit fly into the distance. As he becomes a Twinkle In The Sky, he actually screams, "AAAAAAaaaaaaah! Twinkle!" |

God Hand: 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. However, unlike other examples said enemies will actually end up back in front of you as if the attack was played backwards, even if it's just to let out a death cry. Also, Evil Boisterous Bruiser Elvis does this before his second fight against Gene. He punches two of his henchmen into the skies for disrespecting the body of one of their victims. |

Whenever "Team Rocket is Blasting Off Again!" in Pokémon: The Series. This happens when they're blasting off from almost anything: Pokémon attacks, human intervention, high water pressure when springing a leak in a water pipe, doing honest work for an honest day's pay, etc. In Advanced Generation, they've sometimes blasted off multiple times in one episode. Team Rocket's pretty much the Trope Codifier, which may explain why the trope has been greatly reduced in the Best Wishes series in which they rarely get blasted off, preferring a more traditional villain escape instead. In the X and Y series, this trope has made a comeback. Lampshaded in "Noodles! Roamin' Off!"; Team Rocket was trying to capture a shiny (or "oddly-coloured") Metagross, and got blasted off in the attempt. Ash and his friends watched the "shooting star" fly across the sky. Here is the conversation that follows: In "Double-Time Battle Training", they blasted themselves off when Jessie tried to combine Pokémon attacks together like how Dawn just learned. "Malice in Wonderland" subverts this. Team Rocket gets blasted off for half the episode bouncing back and forth between various causes. They never get this trope. Ouch. There's also "The Treasure Is All Mine!", when Team Rocket wanted to get sent flying; well, James does anyway (because it's the only way he can get away from his dreaded fiancée, Jessebelle). He fails, though; Jessebelle ends up getting blasted off with him instead of Jessie. In several circles, internet and otherwise, this trope has become known as "Pulling a Team Rocket". This happened to Meowth by himself in "The School of Hard Knocks", after Team Rocket abuses him physically again. He comes back down, complete with a second twinkle, right on cue after Jessie and James say their respective last lines in the motto later in the episode. He lands in the pool, gets out, and (at least in the Japanese version) says his line. Even a Pikachu Short had this: Meloetta did this when it flew up into the sky. In one episode, they are launched in a block of ice. Near the end of the episode, they are seen, still in the ice block, floating in the water. They then say the phrase they say in a somber voice, with Meowth saying "With no sparkle..." a bit after. Team Rocket aren't the only ones to get this treatment. In "Cerulean Blues", the Invincible Pokémon Brothers use their three Tentacruel to try and Poison Sting both Misty and her Gyarados into submission. Misty and Gyarados respond by blasting off the Tentacruel with a Hyper Beam, and then giving the same treatment to the brothers with a Hydro Pump. They even lampshade this by saying, "We're not Team Rocket, but we're blasting off!" As has Dario at the end of "The Flame Pokémon-a-Thon", following a confrontation with Ash over his methods in the race. Though he comes back down just in time to blame his defeat on the Rockets themselves and chase them away. Burgundy also suffers this fate in "Clash of the Connoisseurs", when Crustle accidentally hits her with its Rock Wrecker. Ash overhears this (though he doesn't see who it was) and comments that it sounds familiar. The Cosplay Pikachu side special (promoted to normal episode in the dub) has Masked Pikachu and his minions blasting off, although in-universe, it was a movie. Pokémon Ranger and the Temple of the Sea. While Team Rocket is fleeing on a bicycle-powered balloon, a Fearow controlled by Jack Walker (the titular Pokémon Ranger) pierces their balloon with its beak and sends them zooming away into the sky. An early episode in Advance Generation has this fate befall Ash's Corphish after Treecko attacks him to get him out of a hole. Surprisingly, the Sun & Moon series has it averted altogether, instead having a wild Bewear showing up to grab them and then run off. It even gets defied at one point, when Bewear catches them in midair just when it seems they're gonna get blasted into the sky. This only lasts for the whole season, thought, and by the next season, they've gone back to blasting off again. Red's Clefairy had this by being punched from a Ursaring in "Lights, Camerupt, Action!" Brock got this when his Bonsly tackled him from getting horny due to Nurse Joy in "Off the Unbeaten Path". Clemont had this treatment as well in "A Rush of Ninja Wisdom!" when he tested out the Muscle Mass Magnifying Machine. Even Ash gets this treatment in "Alola Kanto!" when he gets ran over by his herd of Tauros. Pikachu was not safe from this during the episode with Buzzwole; Buzzwole's uppercut sends Pikachu into the sky with this. In the manga Pokémon: Diamond and Pearl Adventure!, when Hareta’s Regigigas defeats Flint’s Rapidash with Mega Punch, the Mega Punch ends up blasting Flint’s Rapidash off. |

Pokémon Reset Bloodlines: As usual, this happens to Team Rocket, though not as often as in canon since they're not actively trying to steal Pikachu from Ash. Played for Drama during Chapter 18. Paul ends up blasting Ash's Primeape into the sky. Unlike most examples, it's hinted that such an action might actually have fatal consequences. |

In Shadow Hearts: Covenant, Joachim has a damage-or-OHKO attack that launches an enemy high into the sky. The player will know it succeeded if the enemy creates a twinkle. | |

Homestar Runner: In the Strong Bad Email "winter pool", Pom-Pom becomes this after bouncing off of Strong Bad's gelatin-filled pool. He's later shown floating through space. At the end of "The Next April Fools Thing", Stinkoman punches Bubs so hard he goes flying into space, leaving behind a twinkle that becomes the words "Happy April Fools' Day". |

This is reversed by Glory in one episode of Buffy the Vampire Slayer. When Willow and Tara teleport Glory out of the hospital, she appears in the sky above Sunnydale in a starburst, then can be seen plummeting to earth as a falling star. | |

Happens at least once in Dragon Ball Z: Trunks blasts Vegeta into the distance so that he can have time to kill Cell before he absorbs Android 18. We get a lovely twinkle out of it. The situation and the music provide a nice contrast to the lighthearted celebration inspired when it happens in Pokémon. And Dragon Ball Z Abridged turns this into a Call-Back to Goku and Vegeta's first battle. |

Played with in Martian Successor Nadesico. In an episode titled The Lukewarm Cold Equation Akito's robot was thrown into the distance during a fight, creating the twinkle. This had happened a couple of times in previous episodes, but this time the rest of the episode focused on where he went, with Yurika and Megumi actually going out to search for him. | |

Happens to giant robots frequently in Transformers: Cybertron. Unsurprisingly, the Team Rocket-ish Ransack and Crumplezone experience it a time or two, complete with post-booting dialogue on one occasion: However, it can also happen to fellow comedic villain Thundercracker, and the serious villain Scourge. Sideways does it voluntarily, his zigzagged departures often ending in this. |

Twelve Red Lines: In Chapter 32, this happens to Jones when she absorbs too much force from Wyper's missiles. They get sent flying from the backlash, and Usopp, who grabs them right before they're sent flying, gets dragged along for the ride. In Chapter 36, this happens to Enel when Jones and Usopp shoot him out of a cannon aimed at the moon. |

At the start of the Demon Tournament of YuYu Hakusho, all the demons on Yusuke's group decide to gang up on their mutual boogey-man. Yusuke welcomes the attention and then proceeds to just punch all 48 opponents clean out of sight. Yusuke then comically lampshades the trope (and reveals his actions were intentional) by calling out the judges because none of his opponents fainted, died, or surrendered (which were the only loss conditions the rules had stated). They declare him the winner of that round anyway. | |

OK K.O.! Let's Be Heroes: In "We're Captured", this happens when the heroes concede defeat and fly off into the sky at the end of the episode. In "Plaza Prom", Raymond is defeated by Radicles in the Dance Battle and sent to the sky. This also happens to Fink in the episode "K.O. vs. Fink" after being defeated by the heroes' Love Beam attack, and though it is hard to see, a ding can still be heard. |

In Kirby: Planet Robobot, it's possible to get knocked by a large enemy or stage obstacle into the background, where this is the result. (If said enemy or obstacle doesn't knock you into the screen.) May also apply to its predecessor game, Kirby: Triple Deluxe (where the latter definitely applied). | |

If someone is hit upwards out of the arena in Super Smash Bros., this is the result... unless they fly forwards and bounce off the screen. It's actually pretty satisfying, especially since they scream the whole time; after a long and bitter fight, hearing a morose, "Pika piiiiikaaaaa..." makes the whole thing seem worthwhile. This can sometimes look a bit weird in stages that take place entirely indoors/underground. Starting in the fourth game, it will stop occurring during the last seconds of a match, to avoid the scenario where an assured victory turns into a tie because the match ended before the long animation finished playing out. In Ultimate, if Snake uses his Final Smash, which is essentially Macross Missile Massacre, and someone gets star KO'd while the missiles are firing, a stray missile will follow them off into the distance. | |
