Well, fiddlesticks. Looks like someone's being attacked with a projectile weapon. It could be Arrows, bullets, or throwing knives, and just to make things worse, the character in question is unarmed. How on Earth can they defend themselves from such a vicious onslaught? Simple, really. Stretch out that hand, grab the weapon that's being hurled, and fling it straight back to the attacker! That'll teach anybody to try and screw around with long range combat. To understand the Real Life viability of this trope, first, look at Arrow Catch and Bullet Catch. Take the probability of pulling off such a catch, multiply by itself, and that's roughly the chance of this working, at least, as far as launched weapons go. Thrown weapons can vary, depending on size, pointiness, and victim's preparation. Lobbing a ball-sized object at a lacrosse player? Justified. Flinging a shuriken at a naturist? Not as much. This trope is the concept behind many a Counter-Attack. Compare Attack Reflector, which doesn't bother with the catching part, and Lodged-Blade Recycling, for when said part goes awry. See also Return to Shooter, Tennis Boss. Grenade Hot Potato is a subtrope if this involves an energy projectile and/or explosives like dynamite or grenades, this may lead to a case of Hoist by Their Own Petard if it kills the attacker who threw it. |

X-Men: Basically Bishop's mutant power — he's able to absorb pretty much any energy directed against him, then redirect it as kinetic energy. Rachel Summers was shot at by a anti-mutant bigot. As she did this maneuver, she pointed out how stupid it was to think he could ambush a telepath, or that bullets would work against a telekinetic. Fortunately for the bigot, Magneto (who was reformed at the time) "caught" the bullet with his own powers. |

In Bleach, Nell, in her adult form, as well as in her child form, protects Ichigo by taking Nnoitra's cero by her mouth then spits it back at him with her own cero strengthening it. Ukitake's shikai can absorb an attack with the left blade and fire it back (with increased speed) with the other. Ichigo later demonstrates the ability to do this in his fight with the Quincy Kirpe. |

DEATH BATTLE! Blake Belladonna and Mikasa Ackerman ends this way: Blake sending one of Mikasa's Thunder Spears back at her causes it to impale Mikasa. Blake then detonates the Thunder Spear, with the resulting explosion obliterating Mikasa on the spot. Xeno Trunks and Archie Silver has the latter redirecting the former's Masenko via psychokinesis in their base forms, as Super Silver redirecting Super Saiyan Trunk's Galick Gun and the card-summoned Dragon Ball GT Goku and Pan's Kamehamehas all right back at them before redirecting the Kamehamehas multiple times to loop them into a Combined Energy Attack on Trunks, and finally ending the fight by teleporting Super Saiyan God Trunk's Key Sword right back at him for the finishing blow as the half-Saiyan launches it at Silver for his own finisher, temporally erasing Trunks from existence. It's pointed out in the post-fight analysis Silver's ability to do this even against foes much stronger than himself would negate Trunk's possible power advantage and be a major factor in his victory. |

A Certain Magical Index: Touma Kamijou eventually realizes that since his Imagine Breaker doesn't make very large or powerful attacks disappear instantly, he can catch the blast and throw it back. Since Accelerator controls vectors, he can catch attacks, amplify them, and throw them back. He usually does it with enemy attacks, but he can also do it with a teammate's attack to strengthen it. |

Lyrical Nanoha In the A's manga, Suzuka manages to pull this on Fate during a dodgeball game while the latter is about 50 feet in the air and hits her with enough force to knock her out. Bear in mind that Fate is a genetically enhanced Super-Soldier and Suzuka is (presumably) a Muggle. In Chapter 13 of ViVid, Vivio attempts to slip through Einhart's defense by distracting her with a volley of projectiles, a plan that backfires when Einhart catches the projectiles instead of blocking them, then throws them right back at Vivio while she was charging at Einhart. |

This is one of the core mechanics of Silver the Hedgehog's gammeplay in Sonic the Hedgehog using his Psychokinesis. When there isn't any debris or crates around to use as ammo, Silver can always wait for his enemies to open fire on him, use Psychokinesis to catch the projectiles and then lob them back at his leisure. This goes for nearly anything the enemies can toss at you aside from laser beams. | |

An extremely satisfying method of disposing of Hunters in Half-Life 2: Episode Two involves picking a bulky object up with your Gravity Gun, using it as a shield against Hunter's antimatter flechettes, then smashing the Hunter hard with the object and flechettes lodged in it, causing annihilation. You even get an achievement for doing this. | |

In Fist of the North Star, the protagonist Kenshiro does this fairly often... usually using just two fingers. The technique in question is known as Nishi Shinkuu Ha. It's so typical of Kenshiro and other Hokuto practitioners to do so that the only time it didn't happen it was when Raoh (another Hokuto practitioner) got an arrow in the leg while on a horse, mid-air and fighting Kenshiro to the death. He later proceeds to casually send another arrow back when he's on the ground and off his horse while still in a fight to the death. At the extreme end of the scale, Kenshiro once caught an entire battalion's worth of arrows and returned them in a single motion...killing every single man who fired on him with a precise headshot between the eyes. | |

True Villains: Xaneth deals with Dove's "Gather Bomb" Charged Attack by contemptuously insulting his technique, casting a warding spell on a hapless random peasant, using the peasant as a Human Shield against the Gather Bomb, then firing the bomb's energy back out of the peasant's corpse's mouth. Dove is incinerated. | |

Dragon Ball Used at the start of Dragon Ball Z by new arrival on Earth, Raditz. With a bullet. Which he flicks back harder than the gun that originally fired it. In a Call-Back to the above example, an episode of Dragon Ball Super has Goku catch and fling a bullet back at an attempted truck thief. This being Goku, he flicks the bullet back much slower, only knocking the robber unconscious. |

Calvin and Hobbes: Calvin tries to surprise Susie by throwing a snowball at her in springtime (he kept it in the freezer since last winter). He misses and the snowball harmlessly breaks apart on the sidewalk. As he curses his luck, Susie scoops up the snow, shapes it back into a snowball, and hits him with it. Calvin responds, "The irony of this is just sickening." He tries to chuck a pine cone at her in another strip, only for it to be returned at bullet-like speed. Cut to Susie, coming home in full kit from a lacrosse game. |

The Long Ships: During an altercation with the crew of a ship from Östergötland, the angry captain of the Östergötlanders hurls a spear at Orm. Olof Summerbird, standing beside Orm, catches it and throws it back, hitting the man in the shoulder. This draws much admiration from his friends and also seems to awe the Östergötlanders, who retreat without further provocations. When questioned, Olof claims it's something he learned young, but never succeeded in teaching to someone else. He also says he doesn't tell people about it after one of his cousins was severely wounded trying to repeat the stunt. This is a Shout-Out to Njal's Saga, where this feat occurs several times. | |

Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers: One of the things Tommy does in his first battle with the Rangers as the Green Ranger is catching a Blade Blaster thrown at him and throwing it back, hitting Trini in the chest. The Dragonzord Fighting Mode winds up on the receiving end of this each time it tries throwing Dragonzord's head crest as a weapon. One of Lord Zedd's monster likes to throw bombs... which the Ranger tosses right back at him. |

One of the most memorable moments of the kung fu film, The Long Chase. The hero is being confronted by a bandit leader and a legion of mooks, and to intimidate him the leader throws three knives at his direction. The hero simply grabs all three, one on each hand and one with his teeth, before throwing all three back. The bandit leader dodges however, so three mooks ends up getting killed in his stead. | |

The attacker promptly explodes in a gooey fireball. | |

Theoretically possible in The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, as arrows in flight can be interacted with and picked up, but to do so would require inhuman reflexes. Or you can use the slow time shout.

Princess Mononoke: Ashitaka pulls this off but he loads the arrow into his bow rather than throwing it. It's justified in that his arm was cursed with a demon (giving him super strength and reflexes). | |

In the animated movie The Swan Princess, Prince Derek plays a training game called Catch-And-Fire, where he catches an arrow fired at him and shoots the same (or a different) target all in one motion. Naturally, he has to use it for real in the Climax. | |

Devilman: The title character manages to catch a whole tree telekinetically flung at him by Sirene and fling it back at the flinger. But then, he is the (literally) goddamn Devilman! In the 2018 adaptation DEVILMAN crybaby, Ryo Asuka does this using his psychic abilities to take out an American strike team firing on him after he goes to the Amazon and finds out his true identity as Satan. |

Marvel Cinematic Universe: In Captain America: The Winter Soldier, the titular Winter Soldier catches Cap's thrown shield and returns it with enough force to send him reeling. Captain America: Civil War has Spider-Man doing it. After The Winter Soldier throws a billboard at Spidey, the webslinger throws it back with a typical Spidey one-liner: Thor: Ragnarok: When Hela chases behind Thor and Loki inside the Bifrost beam, she catches the dagger that Loki throws at her and flings it right back at him, knocking him out of the Bifrost. Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness: A very disturbing example, where Wanda Maximoff uses her telekinesis to catch Captain Carter's shield and throws it back at her, bisecting her in the middle. Thor: Love and Thunder: Zeus hurls his Thunderbolt at Thor, who catches it and throws it back, impaling Zeus through the chest. |

Xeno Trunks and Archie Silver has the latter redirecting the former's Masenko via psychokinesis in their base forms, as Super Silver redirecting Super Saiyan Trunk's Galick Gun and the card-summoned Dragon Ball GT Goku and Pan's Kamehamehas all right back at them before redirecting the Kamehamehas multiple times to loop them into a Combined Energy Attack on Trunks, and finally ending the fight by teleporting Super Saiyan God Trunk's Key Sword right back at him for the finishing blow as the half-Saiyan launches it at Silver for his own finisher, temporally erasing Trunks from existence. It's pointed out in the post-fight analysis Silver's ability to do this even against foes much stronger than himself would negate Trunk's possible power advantage and be a major factor in his victory. | |

Dungeons & Dragons: In 3.5, the psionic feat Return Shot does this; being at the end of a chain of psionic feats, a psychic warrior is the most likely to have it. Any character can gain the feats to do this, so long as they meet the prerequisites. Monks get these feats as bonuses. With Epic feats they can backhand spells into the caster's face. Monks also get this as a class ability in 5E; they can use Ki to reduce the damage of incoming ranged weapon attacks, and can chuck them back if they reduce the damage to 0. Giants usually have Rock Catching (Ex) and Rock Throwing (Ex). The combination should be self-evident. Spellthieves can do this, appropriately enough, when targeted with spells. The 2E Forgotten Realms Adventures also has the spell Missile Mastery, which allow a wizard to take control of a single missile by round for 4 rounds, and send it back at the thrower. Dragon magazine #60 article on the Jester NPC. Jesters can catch a weapon thrown at them and throw it back at the attacker. Then there is the magical item "Gloves of Missile Snaring". It should be evident what they allow the wearer to do... |

X-Men Film Series: X-Men: First Class: Magneto catches and then reverses a barrage of missiles. Sebastian Shaw's ability to absorb and release energy is also a form of this. Deadpool (2016): During their climactic fight, Deadpool catches one of Ajax's axes and tosses it back at him. X-Men: Apocalypse: Storm generates strong winds to launch a car towards the X-Men. Beast is able to slow it down slightly, twirls the car around with its remaining momentum, and then hurls it back towards her with his Super-Strength. Storm would've been crushed to death if Psylocke didn't arrive in the nick of time to cut the car in half. |

Khalek does this with his telekinesis in an episode of Stargate SG-1, when a squad is shooting at him on full auto. Slightly subverted in that the bullets normally simply bounce off his telekinetic "shield" in random directions. However, he just walks close enough to them to have the bullets hit the shooters.note Interestingly, Khalek is played by the same actor (Neil Jackson) who would later play a telekinetic in Push with the same ability to create telekinetic shields. | |

Avatar: The Last Airbender: Firebending has a technique subset concerning lightning. Uncle Iroh developed "Lightning Redirection", enabling a firebender to turn an attacker's lightning against them should the redirector so choose. Until Iroh developed the technique, the only way to defend against Lightning attacks was evasion. One of the most epic scenes has Zuko catching a double-strength lightning bolt and aiming it back at his father, Firelord Ozai, who just tried to kill him with it. Iroh's redirection technique is based on waterbending where redirection is a key principle, often used by Katara and other waterbenders. Toph's introductory episode has her utilizing this technique. Because her style of Earthbending requires listening and sensing the vibrations caused by movement before acting, she is able to sense the exact moment when an underground attacker springs up from the ground to throw a moderately sized rock at her from his position. She promptly catches it and throws it back, with the force of the throw being so strong that said attacker ends up being propelled from the floor of the ring. |

If the player times their counter properly, Batman will catch it and throw it back.

In Kingdom Hearts, Riku will attempt to do this in the second mandatory fight with him if you use Blizzard or Fire on him, catching either move in his free hand, then sending it back as a burst of dark energy. However, you can just reflect the returned projectile back at him by guarding, which will hit him. | |

Halo: You can deflect missiles with a gravity hammer — if you're extremely skilled or lucky. In Halo 2, Master Chief does this with the Covenant bomb that was going to blow up the Cairo, using it to blow up a Covenant capital ship instead. Additionally, he rides with the bomb in zero-G to make sure it returns to sender. The Promethean Watchers, introduced in Halo 4, can catch your grenades and send them back. |

Telekinesis in BioShock can be used like this — grab the projectile mid-air and hurl it back. An audio diary states that catching bullets would be possible too, if not for the user's slow reaction time. In BioShock 2's online mode, one of the ways telekinesis can be used is to grab grenades shot by a launcher to fire them back at the original shooter. This is also one of the reasons not to use the homing missile upgrade for the said weapon, because the item moves slower, making this much easier to catch. BioShock Infinite's "Return to Sender" vigor causes the user's hands to be covered by magnetic iron that generates a small shield in front of the hand. The shield pulls in bullets an create a large ball of molten metal that can be launched at enemies and explode. The shield can also be deployed onto the ground and pull in bullets towards it. |

When the second one is launched, Barry runs towards it, jumps, catches it in mid-air, and swings it back to fly straight at the drone. Cisco is both miffed and impressed, then reveals that he has two more drones... with lasers. Cue Dr. Wells spoiling his fun with "No lasers!" In Season 2, Zoom pulls this off on a lightning bolt thrown by Barry. They also did it in The Flash (1990). In one episode, a scientist cloned The Flash.

In the initial fight of the movie version of Watchmen, the Comedian throws two knives at his assailant. The assailant catches the second knife, a meat cleaver. Rather than return it though, he throws it into the floor, possibly for the same reason he didn't use a gun or knife to kill the Comedian in the first place. Also something of a Chekhov's Gun, showing the assailant's skill and ability to catch things. | |

Samurai Gunn, similar to the Afro Samurai example, has a mechanic where any Painfully Slow Projectiles fired by other players can be deflected back with a well-timed sword slash. This can happen multiple times depending on how well the timing is, and this "bullet tennis" instantly becomes hilarious. | |

Peach and Daisy's Heart item in Mario Kart: Double Dash!! creates a shield that lets them catch any item thrown at them (or pick up any item that's dropped onto the track) and throw them back at the attacker or anyone else that's nearby. They can even do this with some of the character's special items too! | |

From Red vs. Blue Season 12, Tucker starts a training exercise based around catching Felix, reasoning that if his ragtag group of soldiers can defeat Felix they'll have no problem breaking Sarge, Donut, and Washington out of the enemy base. Among their many failures is Tucker tossing a grenade at Felix, who calmly catches it and counts to four before sending it right back to a fleeing Tucker. | |

In Centurions, Rex Charger's Gatling Guard assault weapon system uses a high-tech version of this trope. Its equipment includes a Energy Absorption/Retrieval Laser that can take energy from any source (usually an attacker), store it, then use it to power the system's weapons (which are often fired back at the original attacker). His smaller assault weapon system, Electro Charger, includes a similar weapon. | |

In Super Smash Bros. Melee, it's possible, with proper timing, to catch a thrown item just before you are hit, which makes it possible to use this trope. You might not even realize you did it if things got particularly hectic until you see "Item Catcher" and "Reciprocator" among the achievements in the match. This trick is made even easier to do in Brawl, which annoys human opponents to no end. | |

Dishonored: It's possible to pick up enemy grenades after they've been thrown, but keep in mind that they will explode after two seconds. Corvo automatically equips grenades if the player picks up a live one, having more sense than to put it in his pocket. Using Bend Time allows Corvo to pluck crossbow bolts and bullets out of the air, then use them himself. |

In the climactic battle of The Secrets of Drearcliff Grange School, the bad guys shoot a cannon ball at the heroes. Laurence, whose superpower is a kind of Hammerspace pocket, catches the cannon ball and later returns it by reopening the pocket and letting out the cannon ball, still traveling at the same speed but now back in the opposite direction. And then, because her pocket also has the power to duplicate items placed in it, she sends more cannon balls after the first one until the bad guys surrender. | |

Devil May Cry: Vergil in Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening shows the ability to block bullets by spinning the Yamato really fast. In a cutscene, he also catches the bullets with his katana and lays them down on the ground before knocking them right back to Dante. During the battle with Credo in Devil May Cry 4, the spears that he throws can be caught with the Devil Bringer and then thrown right back at him. In DmC: Devil May Cry, the blades thrown by the Witches can be hooked using Demon Pull and kicked back at them. |

One Piece: Luffy does this quite often, usually against Marines. You would think the World Government would realize by now that bullets are ineffective against him. Made even cooler by the fact that pre-timeskip he could only catch them with his rubber body and fling them back randomly. Now, after two years of training, he can aim where they go with deadly accuracy. Jean Ango's method of battling is to acquire weapons off of other people until he's gathered enough, then throw them back at his enemies. He became one of the greatest bounty hunters in this way. |

Magic: The Gathering lets you do this with Guile, whose ability lets you exile a spell you've countered (the catch) and then cast it for free (the return). There are a plethora of spells that do this as well. The effect is typically Blue, but Red gets a similar effect that ignores the "catch" and instead "returns" a separate copy of the spell (barring the example of Wild Ricochet which does both). | |

Alex then spits the bullet out onto her hand (mentally commenting that the taste of cordite and gunsmoke is "the most disgusting thing she ever tasted" all the while) and gives it back to him. This has the appropriate psychological effect on Marvin. | |

Tom and Jerry Chase features this built into the stick of dynamite item, as a reference to how often such a thing would happen with dyanamite in the cartoons; once lit a stick will explode in a few seconds, and when thrown at someone it is automatically caught by them when it hits. If a player isn't careful and throws the dynamite too soon, it can easily be thrown back at them. | |

Sara Pezzini from the live action adaptation of Witchblade once caught a crossbow bolt and threw it back at the shooter with enough force to kill. Justified, since the Witchblade itself is a supernatural weapon that grants the wielder superhuman strength and agility and the ability to manipulate time. | |

The superhero-themed game Gemini: Heroes Reborn allows you to catch bullets and projectiles in mid-air and hurl them back at your enemies. It's in fact compulsory in the only two boss battles, against Alex (who has geokinesis and keeps hurling rocks) and Mason (with pyrokinesis and lobs plasma fireballs) — you catch their projectiles, and hurl those back. | |

In The Deerslayer, the eponymous character catches and throws back a tomahawk, splitting the thrower's head open. This is presented as a reaction based on pure instinct — he hadn't intended to kill the man. Nonetheless, he uses the ensuing chaos to steal a canoe and escape. | |

Robo Recall (and its Tech-Demo Game predecessor, Bullet Train) have the Bullet Catch version in full effect, as enemy bullets enter Bullet Time when near you. This makes it easy to pick one up and throw it right back for a "Return to Sender" bonus, or deflect it back with one of your held guns for a "Ping-Pong" bonus. | |

Njal's Saga: In Gunnar's and Hallvard's clash with a band of vikings, Gunnar catches a spear hurled by the viking Karl with his left hand and throws it back towards Karl's ship, killing one of Karl's men. In Gunnar's fight with Otkel and his companions, Gunnar catches a spear thrown by the Norwegian Audólf and hurls it back at him, piercing his shield and also Audólf himself. At the battle at the Althing Hólmstein, a supporter of Flosi, hurls a spear at Kári Solmundarson "but [Kári] caught it in mid-air and hurled it back, and it brought death to a man in Flosi's following." In Kári's second fight with the sons of Sigfús and their allies, Kári catches a spear thrown by Grani Gunnarsson with his left hand, then hurls it back so that it pierces both Grani's shield and his thigh. |

Happens at the climax of Big Trouble in Little China. Jack Burton throws his trusty boot knife at Big Bad Lo Pan and misses by a huge margin. Lo Pan picks it up and throws it back — but Jack, in his single most competent moment in the entire film, catches the knife midair before putting it right between Lo Pan's eyes, killing him. "It's all in the reflexes." This is a Meaningful Echo, as we saw Jack demonstrating exactly those reflexes right at the beginning of the movie. | |

One of the special abilities martial artists can buy in Deadlands Classic, "Seize the Pearl o' Death", allows them to catch a thrown projectile and throw it back. But it doesn't stop there: if the (soon-to-be-ex) martial artist has big enough britches, she can try it with arrows, bullets, or cannonballs. If it succeeds, the martial artist can throw the projectile back with the same velocity it had when it was launched. If it fails, the character takes damage to both the hand and the body part that would've been hit anyway. | |

Jaune Arc, Lord of Hunger: During the Breach, Jaune kills a Nevermore by using the Force to catch the Feather Flechettes it hurls at him mid-air and send them flying back at the Grimm. When Atlesian soldiers try shooting Darth Nihilus with their assault rifles in Chapter 18, he uses the Force to catch each of the thousands of bullets flying towards him. He then uses the bullets to form a dome around himself before using his telekinesis to send the bullets out in a Multi-Directional Barrage, killing the soldiers as well as some bystanders caught in the crossfire. Later in the same chapter, when Ruby fires two Dust rounds at Nihilus, he uses the Force to catch both bullets and fling them at Ren and Nora. |

In Ori and the Blind Forest, one of the skills allows catching an enemy projectile (or an enemy, for that matter), then launching off of it, while whatever was caught gets thrown in the opposite direction.

In Digimon Frontier, this is Mercurymon's preferred form of attack. He's able to return any ranged attack fired at him, even those used by Digimon much stronger than him, by catching them with one of his mirror shields and shooting the projectiles back through either one.

Super Smash Bros. In Super Smash Bros. Melee, it's possible, with proper timing, to catch a thrown item just before you are hit, which makes it possible to use this trope. You might not even realize you did it if things got particularly hectic until you see "Item Catcher" and "Reciprocator" among the achievements in the match. This trick is made even easier to do in Brawl, which annoys human opponents to no end. One of Villager's abilities in Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U is to catch an enemy's projectile weapon (including thrown items, explosives, and even lasers and lightning), store it in his inventory and then fire it back later — even attacks that aren't strictly projectiles, like Charizard's flame. Isabelle, who joins in Ultimate shares the same neutral special as Villager. In Ultimate, the item that Villager and Isabelle catches are displayed next to their damage meter. |

New Mutants: Dani Moonstar, in an issue where she was temporarily empowered as a Valkyrie, did this with a missile fired at her from a fighter jet. | |
