Some characters can Dodge the Bullet; move so fast that not even a high-velocity round, or maybe not even a Very High Velocity Round can hit them. They just move out of the way. These characters, as the trope name implies, are the opposite. They don't move out of the bullet's way—they literally don't need to. The bullet itself will avoid hitting them. There could be many reasons for this—from psychokinetic power all the way up to sheer dumb luck. The end result is the same regardless: Guns Are Worthless against them, and all they have to do is stand there. The character is not Immune to Bullets. Normally the bullets never reach him, but if a bullet does reach him (for example, if attacked by surprise), he would be as vulnerable as anyone else. A character immune to bullets receives all the shots and stays completely unharmed by them. This trope comes in two different flavours: The character uses Mind over Matter to stop the bullets in their tracks. From there, they can release the bullets at any time, and they'll just clatter harmlessly to the ground. With the right powerset, the character can even send the bullets right back at their original shooters! The bullet literally dodges the character; instead of stopping, it goes around him without even slowing. This does not necessarily happen in Soviet Russia. Compare Plot Armor, which is the metafictional protection offered to main characters and sometimes can appear to serve this purpose (especially if Stormtroopers are involved). Also compare A-Team Firing, where bullets dodge everybody, no matter how many bullets/people there are. A sister trope to this is Bullet Catch and Parrying Bullets, where the characters stop the in-flight bullets physically. Also see Return to Shooter. |

In the prequel manga to K, Mikoto Suoh, the Red King, uses a variation of this trope to incinerate incoming bullets. Reisi Munakata, the Blue King, also shows this ability; it probably comes with being a King as you are just too powerful that just activating your Aura results in such things. In the first episode of the second season, Reisi not only does this, he makes the bullets explode into sparkles. | |

X-Men: A 1980s story about a group of anti-mutant bigots who discover Xavier's secret and try to murder him culminates in dueling examples of this. After their plot is thwarted, one of the villains tries to shoot Rachel Summers, who uses her telekinesis to grab the bullet and redirect it at the shooter. Then the bullet freezes just in front of his head, having been caught by Magneto, who refuses to let Rachel become a murderer like himself. The bullet just hovers in front of the now-terrified assassin's face while they push against each other, until Magneto manages to talk Rachel down. Longshot and Domino, of the X-Men, have "good luck" as their power. One use for it is that, when someone fires at them, they will have the "good luck" that the shots will miss. |

A Certain Magical Index: Accelerator is able to control vectors - one of the unconscious aspects of this ability being that of reversing any vector that works on him. As a result, he not only deflects bullets, he reflects them back into the barrel of the gun. Another example from Index is Misaka Mikoto, whose control over electricity also allows her to manipulate magnetic fields and stop bullets cold. She uses this to great effect when fighting the Hound Dogs during the Academy City Invasion arc. |

Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty has Fortune. Not only do bullets dodge her (with a visible streak in the air to show the changed trajectory), but any grenade that gets close to her turns into a dud. This causes her no end of angst, because it doesn't protect any of her allies. In the end sequence Revolver Ocelot reveals this is due to a magnetic deflection device (which she isn't aware of). However, she then apparently deflects a series of shots from Metal Gear Ray without it. After a boss fight with her, Raiden notably manipulates this so as to shoot Vamp (who usually can read someone's muscles so fast he avoids bullets) in the head by bouncing it off her field at him. It doesn't take, due to his regenerative powers, but it does leave a scar. | |

In the original Half-Life, in the event you are somehow able to approach the G-Man and attempt to shoot him, you discover he has a shield around him that makes bullets redirect randomly around him, though they still go in the direction they were meant to. Most exemplified if you approach him and try to shoot point-blank at his chest, only to find a bullet-hole above his left shoulder. | |

Happens in the Trigun anime (not manga) for Vash the Stampede and Legato Bluesummers. This is most noticeable when an entire gang blaze away at Vash with automatic rifles for several seconds… and just leave a perfect outline in the wall behind him. In that scene there's an implication that the mooks were under orders not to kill, and were firing just to pin him down. But later, there's an incident wherein Vash and Wolfwood casually walk toward a gang stronghold, with gang members continuously firing on them with various calibers of fire, and missing. | |

In Fate of the Clans Cú Chulainn's Protection From Arrows skill has a slightly misleading name. It isn't just arrows it blocks but it can be that any projectile attack is knocked away before they even touch him. However, he has to block or dodge any projectiles that'll detonate on impact. He also needs to have made visual confirmation with the shooter for the skill to possibly block the attack since it's ranked B. After the first fight ends he tells Mikoto that if he hadn't glimpsed the Gray King right before the gun was fired he would have had to do something himself. | |

Bink's talent in the Xanth books could be seen as the magical version: Any spell that would harm him, even Magician-caliber, is pushed aside by seeming coincidence and dumb luck. Unfortunately for him, his talent has a very precise definition of "harm", meaning that there are spells that can incapacitate, embarrass, or greatly inconvenience him. (In fact, his talent might consider expediting this a convenient means of protecting him from genuinely dangerous magic he'd likely run into unimpeded.) And of course, he has no such direct protection against non-magical methods of attack. It was implied more than once early on that determined opposition by Magician- or greater-level magic probably could eventually get through, but his talent also works both to avert Bink making true enemies of that caliber in the first place and actively seeks ways to indirectly end such a confrontation before it reaches its limits to directly protect him - even if this should mean "buying off" an opponent with whatever the fight was over. | |

In Undertale, when you fight Toriel, getting to low health makes her Bullet Hell style attacks start to dodge you instead of the other way around. This isn't thanks to any ability of the player, but Toriel trying to scare off the human child without seriously endangering them—if you go out of your way to get hit and die, she'll be shocked that it happened. Undertale's successor, Deltarune has a similar thing happen when Susie encounters Lancer after the latter betrayed her, Kris, and Ralsei. His attacks eventually start swerving away to avoid Susie should the player get hit enough. |

Wax from the Wax and Wayne series can exert a constant generalised allomantic push that causes metal objects like bullets to weer off when they get too close to him. It's not entirely foolproof, but it does make him very hard to hit. It's noted that by the laws of allomancy as they are commonly understood, this should not be possible - an allomancer has to identify a piece of metal before they can push against it. The Ars Arcanum says that all twinborn (people with an allomantic power and a feruchemical power) gain an additional effect based on the "resonance" between the two powers, and it's implied that what Wax is doing is the resonance between his allomantic power to push on metals and his feruchemical power to alter his weight. | |

Magneto does this in the X-Men movies and comics, using control of magnetism. In the first film, Magneto uses his powers to take all the guns from the police and aim them back at the cops. Xavier tries to force him to surrender. Magneto fires at one of the cops, and keeps the bullet in the air right against his face. As Xavier does not give up yet, Magneto cocks all the other guns and dares him, "Care to press your luck, Charles? I don't think I can stop them all!" | |

In one chapter of Ghost Trick: Phantom Detective, Sissel and his companions have to force this trope to prevent someone from being murdered. They must exchange the bullet with another item. However, the kinetic energy is conserved, so while the bullet clatters harmlessly to the ground, Sissel must take care not to swap it with something just as deadly. | |

In the Warhammer 40000 roleplaying game Dark Heresy psykers can perform a power, which was clearly inspired by The Matrix: For one round of combat, a number of hits (depending on the willpower of the psyker) from projectiles are ignored, as they stop in their tracks and (once the power stops) fall to the ground. This has the problem that there are a lot of non-projectile weapons in the game; laser weapons are some of the most common weapons found in the setting. | |

In One Piece, a few character have this capability, generally by way of using Devil Fruit powers. Eustass Kidd has magnetic powers that allow him to freeze cannonballs in their tracks inches from his body, and repel them back to their senders for good measure. Trafagar Law can use his spatial-displacement power to stop projectiles, swap them with objects in another location, and set them moving again. |

Lancer from Fate/stay night has the skill Protection From Arrows, which causes most anything launched or thrown at him to be deflected. The only exceptions are powerful Noble Phantasms, projectiles that explode on impact, and weapons that simply have an extended attack, such as a knife attached to a ribbon with the thrower holding the ribbon. In those cases, he has to dodge himself or knock them away with his spear. | |

Team Fortress 2 includes the unlockable Bonk Atomic Punch for the Scout class. When quaffed, the player takes no damage from attacks because he's so fast. In fact, when damage numbers are turned on, each "hit" registers as "Miss". It counts as this trope because the shots will miss even if the character is standing perfectly still. Although the Scout still takes knockback somehow. | |

The Book of Eli has the titular character shot at numerous times without being hit. This may be mundane — in post-apocalyptic America ammunition is unreliable, and it's also scarce enough that people probably can't afford to practice shooting with it — or may be magic. Though when Carnegie shoots Eli point blank near the end, not only does the bullet hit him, the injury from it eventually leads to Eli's death. | |

Superboy (1994): While Kon's powers make it look like he's bulletproof he's really not, and when unconscious or not paying enough attention he's just as vulnerable to bullets and other damage as a normal human, what he's really doing is stopping the bullets with his tactile telekinesis as soon as they get within range, which becomes more apparent when he expands that range to include others near him. While he eventually did develop more traditional Kryptonian bullet immunity that was still years away at this point in his story. | |

In Elfen Lied, the Diclonius can block or deflect bullets depending on the caliber. Pistol rounds are simply blocked, but larger rifle rounds have to be deflected. The only gun that is known to have killed one was an assault rifle with armor piercing rounds at point blank range. People have tried to kill Lucy with both .50 BMG anti materiel rifles and Desert Eagles loaded with tungsten bullets, but without success. | |

Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency: When Bart gets shot, the shooter misses with every round in his chamber through a series of bizarre coincidences; Bart stumbles to the side at the right millisecond, bends down to scratch her shoe, so on. When Ken asks if she dodged the bullets, she just says "the bullets dodged me," and that she is a universal constant, like gravity. Then she reloads the gun, presses it to her forehead, and pulls the trigger to no effect. And just to underline the point, she fires a round off into the trees, then tries to shoot herself again, and repeats until the gun is empty. | |
