Ash Face | comment |
This common visual gag was popularized in The Golden Age of Animation. It begins when an explosion occurs point-blank in someone's face, typically from an Explosive Cigar, ridiculous quantities of TNT/dynamite, or perhaps an amusing gunfire incident since guns often emit directed explosions rather than propelling bullets. Depending on the situation, other sudden sources of heat will also result in ash faces — a cartoon character on the wrong end of a gout of fire or fire breath, a short circuit or a lightning strike is also liable to end up with a faceful of soot. After the smoke clears, the target is shown with their face covered in black ash and their eyes brightly visible. Usually, the subject will quickly shake off the ash and return to the wacky hijinx. If the explosion is large enough, the target's entire body will be covered instead. Sometimes, they let out a cough and puff out a smoke ring. Most frequently seen in Zany Cartoons and other visual comedies. This trope has been appearing less frequently in current times, possibly due to concerns about children trying to mimic the act, and to avoid unwanted suggestions of Blackface (Note that some cartoons really did use Blackface as part of the gag). The latter is sometimes sidestepped by having the ash be pale-gray instead of black, which is actually quite commonplace in anime. Can be justified in works aimed at younger audiences, since in Real Life the effects of a character having something blown up in their face would not be funny at all. A Sub-Trope of Non-Fatal Explosions, Artistic License – Explosives, and Amusing Injuries. Compare and contrast Powder Gag, when any kind of powder is blown all over the place for comedic effect, not necessarily due to an explosion. See also Sweeping Ashes. Can be the result of attempting Finger Extinguisher. Somewhat related to X-Ray Sparks. Does not have anything to do with making your face have a Bruce Campbell grin, or being a famous Pokémon Trainer, for that matter. |

Les Visiteurs: When time-displaced medieval men Godefroy (Jean Reno) and Jacquouille (Christian Clavier) lie about the fireplace in Godefroy's room at the château of Montmirail (which conceals a Secret Underground Passage), they pretend they were sweeping the chimney (which is reinforced by the fact that unlocking the secret door caused a massive fall of soot that dirtied the whole room). Jacquouille's descendant Jacquart (also Christian Clavier) doesn't believe it, goes under the chimney and pretends there's nothing... then another mass of soot falls on his face. | |

Spoofed on The Simpsons, when it was revealed that Moe was one of the original Little Rascals, whose most famous bit involved looking into a tailpipe and getting a face full of soot. (There were apparently difficulties in getting reasons to look into the tailpipe, but they had good writers like William Faulkner) It was one of these incidents that ended Moe's acting career, when Alfalfa looked into the tailpipe instead, prompting Moe to lose his temper and kill Alfalfa. Murder charges were not laid, as Alfalfa was an orphan owned by the studio. | |

When the MythBusters tested the "finger-in-a-barrel" myth, the myth was illustrated by a cartoon showing Savage Squirrel sticking a finger in Hunter Hyneman's barrel. Hunter Hyneman pulls the trigger, and the gun (as per the myth) blows out, giving him this. After the myth is busted, the same scene is shown again, except this time, the gun fires normally, and it's Savage Squirrel who ends up with the Ash Face. | |

Looney Tunes: Happens repeatedly to Daffy Duck in the classic short "Rabbit Fire" (or "Duck Rabbit Duck"). Happens on Duck Dodgers in the episode "The New Cadet." The same gag appears briefly in the opening Show Within a Show of Looney Tunes: Back in Action. Occurs in the shorts "Ballot Box Bunny" and "Rabbit's Kin", with Bugs Bunny and Explosive Cigars. Usual result to the shooter when his prey puts their finger in his gun. While Sylvester isn't without examples, "Rebel Without Claws" is an interesting case. He corners Tweety on a fighter ship, where he gets a few cannon blasts to the face. It isn't until the third explosion that the trope really comes into play. He lampshades the effects of the blast by having a pissy fit right on the deck. Wile E. Coyote, bless his heart. How many shorts don't have him falling prey to this one. In "Porky The Fireman", a businessman jumps into a cloud of smoke and emerges as a blackface caricature of Stepin Fetchit. Most syndicated airings cut the latter half of the scene, along with the following scene of Porky scooping up flames in a bucket and dumping it into a fishbowl, turning the fish to blackface. At the end of the uncut version of "Jeepers Creepers", the ghost gets blackfaced by Porky's car exhaust. |

Has happened to Clover twice; once in an Imagine Spot in the episode "A Thing For Musicians", and again when Alex blows open the door of a plane right next to her in "Shrinking." Sam and Alex get this in "Ski Trip" when Clover gets jealous of Mandy and walks off angry, leaving a trail of flames that flare up and leave the girls charred. |

During his first six years in World Wrestling Entertainment, the "Big Red Monster" Kane never appeared in public with any part of his body uncovered; the story was that he'd gotten caught in a fire started in his parents' funeral parlor and had barely survived, and his burns were too horrific for the sight of "normal" humans. In 2003, however, he was finally forced to remove his trademark red-and-black mask - and revealed, instead of grotesquely pitted features, a comically mild-looking Ash Face. (It was made even funnier by the Raw commentators speculating on how ugly and deformed Kane would look.) | |

The Sims 2 and 3 have this as a side effect of electrocution. In The Sims 2 this happens when fireworks blow up in a sim's face, leaving them covered in soot, wearing nothing but scorched undergarments, and in desperate need of a bath. In Sims 3, this is a potential result of a visit to the catacombs or when a sim is caught in the middle of a detonation. Some random events also cause this. It also happens when a sim is caught in a fire but gets put out before they die. If they catch fire or get electrocuted (again) in this state they die instantly. |

It's not helped shortly after when Ernie accidentally shoots Caesar's bug bomb and causes another massive explosion. | |

The Mad Adventures of Rabbi Jacob: Victor Pivert (Louis de Funès), while expressing disapproval for an interracial marriage between a white man and a black woman, stands in front of the married couple's car and ends up covered in exhaust after the couple starts the car. It also doubles as a Blackface gag, given that one of the wedding guests confuses him for the bride's father, and as a brief Color Me Black moment for Pivert, a bigot who espouses slightly racist views. | |

Though it is the cast-off skin that is consumed by the fire, Hans is now described as lying in bed "coal-black as if he had been burnt." The king sends for his physician who washes him with precious salves and anoints him and Hans becomes all white and handsome. | |

A few times on Hi Hi Puffy AmiYumi. In "Metal Mental", an explosion at the end leaves Ami and Yumi blackened. In "Home Insecurity", Ami gets blasted by Yumi's security system and leaves her charred. After Yumi chases her out of her room, she enters back in only to have the security system backfire and blast her as well. In the episode "In the Cards", Ami is zapped by Chad's monster. In "Scowlitis", Yumi is fried by lightning. |

Happens occasionally on SpongeBob SquarePants, despite taking place underwater. During the ending of "Dying for Pie", SpongeBob shows Squidward that he never ate the bomb pie, he was saving it in his pocket the whole time. He then trips, dropping the pie and causing an explosion (a live-action one to be specific), and then it cuts to Bikini Bottom in ruins. Exaggerated on "Mermaid Man and Barnacle Boy II" when the Atomic Flounder uses his Breath Weapon on Barnacle Boy, leaving his face charred and shriveled like a burnt-out match. The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie gives us a live-action example with David Hasselhoff after being hit by a beam from Neptune's trident. |

Mother: In EarthBound Beginnings and EarthBound (1994), colliding with a person or obstacle when attempting to teleport causes the teleport to fail and the psychic energy to blow up in the users' faces, causing the group to be covered in soot from head to toe for a moment, with their normal Black Bead Eyes looking like white dots. Similarly, EarthBound protagonist Ness' stage entry animation in the Massive Multiplayer Crossover of Nintendo franchises Super Smash Bros. involves him successfully teleporting onto the stage, but ending up with his face covered in soot for a moment before shaking it off. | |

Pokémon: The Series loves this one: Ash's recalcitrant and lazy Charizard has done this to him many times, even after Charizard started being obedient. Liza, Charizard's keeper, thinks of it as a "kiss" (don't ask). On that note, in Charmander's intro episode, "Charmander, the Stray Pokemon", after his ex-trainer left him for dead in a rainstorm (obviously, Ash and co. bailed it out), said ex-trainer wanted to take Charmander back after witnessing a display of power under new management. Charmander proceeded to kill said ex-trainer's ego with fire. In Beauties Battling For Pride and Prestige in the 'Best Wishes' series, Ash's Pignite uses Flamethrower on Ash's Oshawott after Oshawott steals Pignte's food, and Oshawott ends up looking this way. In Pokemon Fashion Flash, Misty has this happen to her twice: Once when she tries to pick up Vulpix and it burns her head, and again when she gets captured by Team Rocket and Vulpix uses firespin to get rid of them but also engulfs Misty in the flames. In Bagged Then Tagged!, this happens to both Dawn and Ash when Team Rocket's decoy robot explodes in their faces. The Team Rocket Trio have gotten this a lot, thanks to their Chew Toy status. This a frequent result of Clemont's oft-exploding inventions, to the misfortune of most of the cast. In A Pokévision of Things to Come!, this is lampshaded when Serena is charred black by Clemont's camera robot exploding, ruining her look for the camera and leading her to change into a new Fennekin-inspired outfit instead. Sun and Moon has this happen in the first episode. Ash steps on a Litten's tail and gets shot in the face with Ember in retaliation. It's even part of the opening, though in that case the Litten just shoots him for startling it. In Sun and Moon, often as a result of Turtonator's Shell Trap being triggered accidentally. Ash, Chloe and Goh get blown up in Blue Pokémaniacs when a shiny voltorb self-destructs in their faces. |

In a League of Legends comic, Lux is about to fire her Ult to steal Golem, but Leona gets in her way to show her the new shine on her shield. The attack reflects off of her shield and leaves Lux burnt to a crisp. One comic features Ahri getting grabbed by Blitzcrank and fried by the turret. Leona does this to Lux and Sona when they are going to the beach. They thought that it was just a sunny and hot day, but really it was Leona's solar flare. |

Also appears frequently in the older Tom and Jerry shorts, such as "A Mouse in the House" and especially in "Safety Second", which takes place on July 4 and involves a lot of fireworks. In particular, Jerry gets one when he tries to throw away a firecracker that Nibbles lit, only for it to blow up in his face. | |

Happens in Sailor Moon episode Vaulting to Victory when Sailor Mars got her flame sniper attack reflected at her. In Food Fetish, Sailor Moon and Sailor Mercury get burnt by a rescue attempt from Sailor Mars, leading Sailor Moon to call her a pyro. In No Thanks, Nurse Venus!, Mina somehow causes a boombox to blow up in her face. Multiple times in It's In The Cards. First, during a chess match, when Sailor Mercury places a piece on a booby-trapped square which explodes in her face. Later, Sailor Moon and Sailor Venus get covered in soot when they crash their cars in an arcade racer and the machines blow up. |
