Some people have a weapon of choice. Some people's weapon of choice is no weapon at all. And again others like to specialize even further. This trope is about fighting styles wherein people always use exclusively either their legs or their arms, with rare exceptions. Perhaps it's preference, or perhaps it's just their particular form of martial arts. Most characters of the kicking variety like to include elements of Taekwondo and flashy Capoeira moves, which often makes this overlap with the Dance Battler. The fist-only variety is less common, and is obviously most closely related to boxing, though Top Heavy Guys may fight like this for obvious reasons. The Kick Chick is a subtrope. A character who uses both hands and feet is a Bare-Fisted Monk. Not to be confused with Well-Intentioned Extremist. Examples |

The Oblongs: Bob Oblong, in spite of being born with no arm or legs, is still able to fight, by flinging himself head-first at his opponent's stomach. In the first episode, he uses this to knock out a redneck who's bothering his wife. | |

Bleach: Kon is a Mod Soul with super strong legs, that's why almost everything he does in combat is related with his legs. Mashiro uses her legs more often than her Zanpakuto. She even fires Ceros with kicks. |

Kamen Rider Wizard uses a highly acrobatic fighting style based entirely around kicks, as well as his gunblade. Because he uses Rings of Power to channel his spells, he never uses punches; at most he'll occasionally perform a palm strike. The only time in the series where he does throw a punch is in the final episode, after he blocks one of Gremlin's sword attacks with a ring, destroying it. | |

Touma Kamijou in A Certain Magical Index, due to its nature as an Anti-Magic weapon, tends to fight primarily using his right hand. So much so that an enemy is legitimately surprised when Touma shifts to his left for a punch. Accelerator later tries to emulate Touma by using only his right hand to fight, but comments on how difficult it is. |

If you pay close enough attention to the Matrix films, you'll notice that despite being in no less than five fight scenes, three of which were quite long and one of which involved around one hundred copies of himself, Agent Smith only kicks a few times. Hugo Weaving commented at one point that his right arm is much stronger and more coordinated than his left. Most of his moves consist of straight punches with his right arm. This analysis postulates that the reason agents only use one or two moves is to reflect their role as rigid-minded machines. As the human characters learn and grow, their fighting styles evolve with them. But Smith never learns. This lack of variety is compensated for by inhuman strength and speed, which are the only two factors the machines increase when upgrading their agents, rather than adding finesse. |

RWBY: Yang Xiao Long is a martial artist who rarely uses her legs for anything other than running and jumping, preferring to let her fists (and her Ember Celica shotgun gauntlets) do the talking. This can get her into trouble with fighters who make heavy use of their legs, such as Mercury. From Volume 4, she starts learning to fight smarter and think more about how she's fighting, but her primary skill remains fist-fighting. Hazel doesn't rely on a weapon for battle, he fights solely with his fists and arms. When he stabs Dust crystals into his arms to power up, his fists become capable of discharging lightning or fire with every blow. Mercury, who primarily attacks by kicking his opponents, using a deadly combination of taekwondo, capoeira and breakdancing. His fighting style is also enhanced by his metal, prosthetic legs and a pair of boots called Talaria which he uses to fire projectiles. Minor villains Militia and Melanie Malachite are identical twin sisters who fight with, respectively, Wolverine Claws and bladed Combat Stilettos, and make little use of the limbs they haven't weaponized. |

In Fist of the North Star, Shu, the successor of the Nanto Hakuroken fighting style, which focuses almost entirely on using kicks; kicks which slice people apart from sheer air pressure. He can use his hands... But he did so on-page exactly four times, two of which were high-speed techniques where he needed the feet to move that fast, against a child Kenshiro (Shu was already an adult) and to pluck his own eyes in exchange for sparing young Kenshiro's life. | |

Ichi from Ichi the Killer almost exclusively uses kicks in his fighting repertoire; albeit, while wearing razor blades on his shoes. This translates well outside of it; his legs are naturally stronger than his fist (best demonstrated when he interacted with a strength testing machine that involved throwing a punch). | |

In Pokémon Adventures, Crystal demonstrates accuracy to kill for when she kicks her Pokéballs at wild Pokémon. When she broke her arms during her childhood (and her own heart later), she went to the mountains to train her legs, and the training stuck after she got better. She eventually teaches this skill to Emerald. | |

Death Vegas: This is the situation with champion boxer Helmut. In his case, however, he's so top heavy that he's probably genuinely incapable of kicking without completely throwing off his balance. And, like Balrog, he may simply be too stupid to reach out of his style's traditional roots even in unsanctioned fights, being a serious piece of Dumb Muscle with a mind clouded by years of severe steroid abuse. Joshua and Winstone both have this to lesser degrees; Joshua has only one punch in his repetoire, while all of Winstone's normal attacks are punches and all his special attacks are kicks. |

When you press the kick buttons, he'll do some kind of dodge which can actually leave you open if you're not expecting it, so he takes some getting used to. He has one rather weak kick, which is really more of a stomp, and another jump kick was introduced in Tekken 5. He can head-butt with the best of them too, though, and isn't afraid of using his elbows. | |

Dungeons of Dredmor: Each and every unarmed attack is described as a kick of some sort, and the hero himself will punt everything, be it a door, chest or a monster, but will never use their hands for something other than magic, shields or weaponry. This being Dungeons of Dredmor, it's lampshaded constantly, with mentions of enchanting your boot to deal extra damage common among skill descriptions. | |

From the Kamen Rider franchise: Played straight by the aptly-named KickHopper and PunchHopper in Kamen Rider Kabuto. The former even focused on kicks while using the Bee Zecter, even though its finishing move is a punch. Kamen Rider Kiva uses kicks as a signature move, particularly in Emperor Form. Kamen Rider Wizard uses a highly acrobatic fighting style based entirely around kicks, as well as his gunblade. Because he uses Rings of Power to channel his spells, he never uses punches; at most he'll occasionally perform a palm strike. The only time in the series where he does throw a punch is in the final episode, after he blocks one of Gremlin's sword attacks with a ring, destroying it. Kiriya Kujo/Kamen Rider Lazer from Kamen Rider Ex-Aid is a lesser case: He tends to attack with kicks and defend using his arms, but this only really holds up when he doesn't have a weapon like Girigiri Chanbara's Gashacon Sparrow. |

Viper/Daytona and Ghauri from Azure Striker Gunvolt and Azure Striker Gunvolt 2.

In Sailor Moon, and especially Codename: Sailor V, Minako is an avid user of kicks, using her hands almost exclusively for special attacks (including a few punching ones that are actually stronger than her kicks).

Persona: Akihiko Sanada from Persona 3 is the captain of his school's boxing team; therefore, when fighting Shadows, he relies exclusively on his fists. This is in contrast to the Main Character, who can also equip gloves (Akihiko's "weapon" of choice) but can kick as well as punch. Chie Satonaka from Persona 4 fights using kicks, and blocks with her knees when she's on the defensive. She even summons her Persona with a roundhouse kick. Her weapon is boots, obviously. |

My Hero Academia: Tenya Iida fights exclusively with kicks, due to the fact that his quirk "engine" (which simply gives him engines in his legs) makes his legs much more powerful than his arms, and kick based fighting is better suited to his Super-Speed. Another example is Izuku Midoriya. He inherited the One For All quirk from All Might, and tries to imitate his predecessor who relied mostly on Good Old Fisticuffs. However, One For All takes a huge toll on the body, and Midoriya breaks his arms to the point where he's at risk of crippling them permanently. Realizing his legs are stronger than his arms, he switches to channeling One For All with kicks instead. All Might, Midoriya's mentor and the one whom he inherited One For All from, is a firm believer of Good Old Fisticuffs, channeling One For All into a variety of punches, knife-edged chops, grappling, and throws. The closest he gets to a non-arm based technique he shows is turning his back to the opponent and punching, generating enough force doing so to launch himself backwards at incredible speeds. |

Pokémon: The Tyrogue line of Pokémon: Hitmonlee. It even stole Blaziken's signature move in DP. Though to be fair, you can teach him moves that don't involve kicking; but the anime was all about the kicking game in the two times he was shown. Hitmontop's moves mostly involve spinning, but since its legs are the only things that'll be hitting you... The former's counterpart Hitmonchan is a boxer who specializes in punching attacks. Hitmonchan can sometimes have the ability Iron Fist, which boosts the attack power of all "Punch" attacks; most Pokémon with Iron Fist will be built by their trainer to have punches dominate their movelist. Stonjourner is another kicking specialist, though for wholly different reasons: it's a sentient dolmen. Not only are its arms fairly short for its size, it doesn't even have enough joints in its body to properly throw a punch. On the other hand, with its legs being two giant slabs of rock weighing nearly half a ton, it doesn't really need anything else to wreck things. |

Averted with Baek, who uses a more traditional style of TKD that employs close-handed strikes and has just as many punching attacks as any other fighter. If not for two poking moves common to all of the fighters — namely the crouching punch and the supine kick — Steve and Hwoarang would be purists. The Capoeiristas still have rollout hand strikes. Sumo wrestler Ganryu kicks when you press the kick buttons, but his moveset is focused mainly on open-handed striking. |

Big Bang Beat: 1st Impression: Mighty Glacier Sanzou Kongoumaru only has punches, unless you count shaking the ground by stomping on it or falling feet-first onto an opponent after jumping. He's so large, attempting an actual kick would probably just make him fall down. Boxer Burai Yamato only has punching moves, for a completely different reason. Half of his attack buttons are used for dashing because of this. |

In the Sonic the Hedgehog series, Knuckles only ever uses punching attacks, and Rouge uses only kicks. Tails just tail-whips and Sonic relies solely on Rolling Attacks. While Sonic's dark counterpart, Shadow, can do the same rolling attacks that Sonic can, he also tends to use kicking attacks when engaged in hand to hand combat. | |

Ghost Kick and Scorpion from the fighting game Martial Masters both favor kicks overwhelmingly to punches; Ghost Kick, particularly, doesn't have any punches at all. This proves to be a somewhat one-sided source of conflict between them, as Scorpion wants to prove his is the ultimate kicking style. | |

Bobby Jacks of Survival of the Fittest almost invariably resorts to his fists in combat. He is, however, a boxer, so that isn't a huge surprise. He doesn't seem to have many compunctions about using his head either. It's mostly a case of sticking to what he's good at. (In fact, the one time he tried to kick somebody he immediately got his ass kicked). | |

The Legend of Korra: this trope is almost never used, but there are some characters that come close : Unalaq in season 2 only uses his arms for throwing actual attacks and has little in the way of legwork. When he has lot of water to play with, like in his fights against Tonraq and later against Mako and Bolin, he pretty much stays in the same spot for the entire fight. Ghazan in season 3, while not actually an example as he uses his entire body to fight, is notable in how often he uses elbow strikes. |

Komura from Ashigei Shoujo Komura-san is an exaggerated example in which she exclusively uses her bare feet to perform even the most mundane tasks as well as tasks that would normally leave an ordinary person bamboozled trying to do the same thing as she does. And yet, the way she uses her feet for her tasks, she makes it look like child's play. Justified in that she comes from a line of really talented acrobats. | |

Yakuza Shun Akiyama fights primarily through kicks, only using his arms in either counter-attacks or grapples. Kiryu somewhat prioritizes punches over kicks in his Rush style, and almost entirely uses open handed swipes in Beast when he isn't grappling or swinging a weapon. Majima's Breaker style attacks with his legs, using his hands for balance, and his Mad Dog style has similar kicks when he isn't slicing anyone with his tanto. Multiple non-playable characters also apply. Akiyama's final boss in 4, Arai, shows off his kicks to mirror Akiyama, The Man in Black is a Korean Taekwondo expert with bladed boots, Andre mostly fight with kicks, and Tachibana relies on his legs to fight due to only having one arm. In contrast, there are many boxers among your friends and foes throughout the series, like Kuze, Jackal, Joon-gi, Tendo, Bachus and Kamoji, and boxing-type mooks are common in all encounters. That being said, no boxing boss or enemy is above fighting dirty, making occasional use of elbows, headbutts, weapons and even the occasional kick. |

Dragon Ball Z: Super Gogeta doesn't use his arms for anything but energy attacks (and throwing confetti.) He gets double points as the only apparent reason he does so is so that he can keep up his smug look. In the Dragon Ball GT Final Bout video game, Vegetto only uses his feet for his meteor combos. This is attempted by Frieza, who spends a decent chunk of his fight with Goku using only his legs and his tail, keeping his arms smugly folded throughout the battle. Goku being a good enough fighter to make him drop this and start using his arms is a sign that he's finally met someone who can fight him at an equal level, and is just the beginning of his Humiliation Conga. |

Street Fighter: Balrog from the series uses this, since he's a boxer and everything. Of course, he also headbutts, but still. Lampshaded by Street Fighter: The Later Years with the quote at the top of the page. Similar to Balrog, British boxer Dudley only ever punches (no headbutts, but uses elbows in air), even if a kick button is pressed. Elena, a capoerista from Street Fighter III, only uses kicks, even if you press a punch button. Juri from Super Street Fighter IV plays this similar to The King of Fighters's Kim in that while she does have punches, her moves are primarily kick based - yes, even her projectiles and her throws.

Nayuki Minase and Kaori Misaka in Eternal Fighter Zero are the kicking and punching versions, respectively. Kaori, in particular, seems to be based partially on both the above mentioned Dudley and Vanessa, moves-wise. | |

Super Smash Bros. While Fox McCloud can throw a punch, almost all of his attacks when fighting up-close are kick-based. Being a boxer, Little Mac only ever uses his fists to attack, being the only fighter with that level of specialization. |

Captain America: Batroc the Leaper trains exclusively in Savate, making his kicks extra powerful and allowing him to leap extraordinary distances. | |
