Faster Than They Look	comment	So you meet this character. He looks slow somehow. Maybe he's so big, maybe he's so heavily armored, maybe he wields a big weapon, maybe his legs are too small, or he looks sickly and lethargic (or even a zombie), whatever. You'd expect to easily outrun this guy. But then said so-called "slow" guy suddenly runs really fast! Bonus points if he's mad and is specifically going after you. Despite the above, this can apply to vehicles and animals as well. Examples of exceptionally fast individuals of an otherwise slow animal species go under the subtrope Speedy Snail. Super-Trope to Acrofatic and Impossibly Graceful Giant. Overlaps with Lightning Bruiser if the character can be mistaken for a Mighty Glacier at first glance. Contrast Glacier Waif, who's slower than they look.

Though characters have also noted that he's still slower than other characters of similar strength level who aren't made of metal, like Hercules or Wonder Man. The Juggernaut. Many, many heroes and villains have made the mistake of assuming Juggs is just a lumbering moron and are in for a rude awakening when they discover he can go 600 miles per hour and even approach the speed of freaking sound at top speeds. His preferred fighting style is charging at his opponents at high speeds flattening them or smashing them through walls.

Negan spends part of their fight screaming that Beta shouldn't be able to move so fast and to stand still already, and even Jesus, who is experienced in Parkour and practically a Dance Battler, is surprised by Beta's speed and agility. Justified when Beta is finally unmasked; he was a famous world class athlete before the Zombie Apocalypse.

Faster Than They Look / int_1cc09117	comment	Bleach It's easy to forget that despite quite a few characters carrying bulk on themselves, almost all of them can use a Flash Step technique, and some of them are fast even by those standards. Marechiyo Omaeda is noticeably portly and gets mocked for his weight (rather hypocritically) by Nirgge Parduoc, only for the Arrancar to be blindsided when Omaeda outmaneuvers him with a burst of speed and shows he didn't become the lieutenant of the Stealth Division and resident speedster Sui-Feng simply for his family connections. Second Espada Baraggan Louisenbairn looks like a well-muscled old man hefting around a giant axe in his sealed form and who mainly relies on Powers Do the Fighting, but with an almost casual display of Sonido he appeared right behind Sui-Feng and lightly tapped her on the shoulder while leaving her unable to follow his movement. And this was after she defeated his Fraccion Ggio Vega, who was the Fragile Speedster that she held back against before two-shotting once she got his meddle.

But once properly motivated he Turns Red and starts fighting by slamming into opponents at high speed. Alex Louis Armstrong possesses a bodybuilder's physique that would usually indicate a Mighty Glacier, when in fact he manages to outspeed the aforementioned Sloth! Notably, his alchemy has nothing to do with his own physical abilities, making this a case of Charles Atlas Superpower. Scar is a Downplayed example; his physique is more toned down than Armstrong or Sloth, but he still has a muscular, stocky form. Despite this, his strategy is closer to that of a Glass Cannon, using speed and his deconstructive alchemy to end fights.

Faster Than They Look / int_3aeb1c75	comment	This is so common for Dragon Ball, that the subversion actually comes as a surprise. When Trunks discovers the Super Saiyan Advanced form, he thinks it's a trump card that can be played against Cell, but keeps it a secret from Vegeta so as not to hurt his ego. However, when the form is used against Cell, the villain demonstrates that all that extra bulk provided DOES slow Trunks down, to the point where Cell can easily evade any attacks. To add insult to injury, it's pointed out that had Trunks shown his new form to the other Z-Fighters, they'd have more than likely been able to point out the flaws without necessitating a brutal beatdown.

This is shown quite prominently during the event in the "Surface Tension" chapter when Gordon is running for his life after being dislodged from crawling through his normally-safe vent-turing, forcing Gordon to run from the ever-gaining Gargantua whilst it easily dashes cars in its way like plastic toys, as shown in its Black Mesa variation here.

In spite of their awkward gaits they are still giants and thus they have much bigger strides and more power to move faster. The Armored Titan in particular looks like a Mighty Glacier because of its bulky armor, but once it sheds the armor at the back of its knees it suddenly becomes a Lightning Bruiser at the cost of gaining an Achilles' Heel.

However if you present food to him a distance away, he can outrun anyone in between him and said meal. This trope is also lampshaded in "Wawanakwa Gone Wild" where Gwen tries to catch a duck, but when she gets close, it suddenly runs off at an incredible speed in Road Runner fashion, leading her to say: "Last time I checked, ducks waddled."

This would usually make him lumbering, except in battle Guts is a blatant Lightning Bruiser who can easily keep up with ninja like opponents and one point catches two chakrams and likens it to â€œswatting a flyâ€�. When Guts uses Berserker Armour this dialled up further with even the Apostles blustering that Guts shouldnâ€™t be able make those kind of movements with the armour and weapon heâ€™s using. To lesser extent thereâ€™s Pippin, a Gentle Giant who in spite of his bulk could move surprisingly quickly at times and swing his hammer as quickly as Guts could swing his greatsword. Both he and Guts could turn the Black Dog Knights into mincemeat when working in tandem. A lot of Apostles are terribly fast for their monstrous sizes. In particular Zodd, Wyald and Grunbeld could beat the shit out of Guts with a couple of quick strikes despite being four times his size in their true forms.

One of his trademark attacks is a running shoulder charge on the outside, which often hits his victims with enough speed that they are sent flipping head over heels.

To a lesser extent, this applied to many Clan omnimechs because the prevailing idea in the Inner Sphere was that you could choose any two of armor, firepower, and speed for a mech, but the Clans had lighter engines, armor, internal structure, and weaponry than the Inner Sphere did so they could build mechs that had all three.

He is also one of the better swordsmen, in part because, as Bronn notes, while he isn't exactly fast by normal standards he's certainly quicker than you'd expect a man his size to be, and one hit from him is all it takes. Gregor's younger brother Sandor "The Hound" Clegane isn't quite as big, being a "mere" 6'6 and also thickly muscled, but Master Swordsman Jaime Lannister considers him one of the most dangerous opponents one could face because Sandor is much, much faster than his size and build would indicate and a vicious fighter as well.

Faster Than They Look / int_9f89a5f0	comment	PokÃ©mon: The move Trick Room can cause this effect as it inverts turn order — the slower PokÃ©mon will start moving first, leading to this result. Miltank, a large cow Pokemon with impressive physical bulk, has a fairly respectable Speed base stat of 100. (For the record, that's equal to Charizard) Stoutland, a plump dog PokÃ©mon, has a base speed of 80. The rideable Stoutland in Alola are also rather fast, their girth seemingly having no impact on their speed. An inversion with Escavalier: Its PokÃ©dex entries mention it as flying around at high speeds. In gameplay, it's one of the slowest fully evolved PokÃ©mon. Slaking, a giant sloth that is depicted as lazing around. Its name is even a play off slacking, yet it has 100 speed. Downplayed by Stonjourner. It has 70 base speed, which isn't very fast, but is certainly faster than you'd expect for a Rock Monster which weighs over 1000 pounds. Eiscue is a penguin PokÃ©mon, and penguins aren't known for their speed (at least not on land). However, when the ice around its head breaks, its speed skyrockets to a blistering 130. The later-added Iron Bundle is also based on a penguin, but has an absurd base 136 speed â€” Occulture magazine claims that it fires blasts of ice from the spherical apparatus on its back to propel itself.

And yet during his first confrontation with the Yoshioka sword school, Musashi is puzzled and frustrated that someone as big as Denshichiro is able to dodge all his strikes. Lampshaded and justified when Denshichiro notices Musashi's frustration and comments on it; Denshichiro points out that he's been sparring against his speed demon brother Seijuro (who is considerably faster than Musashi at this point), so Denshichiro is used to fighting quick opponents. Also, at this point in the story Musashi is essentially Unskilled, but Strong, and is overpowering foes based on his physical attributes and childhood lessons in fighting. Denshichiro, having trained his whole life in formal swordsmanship, can predict Musashi's movements based on his posture and how Musashi holds his sword, giving him a chance to react in time, no matter how fast Musashi attacks him.

Earlier in the Kyoto arc, Kenshin fought one of Shishio's enforcers, a man named Senkaku. Kenshin almost always has a speed advantage in fights, which is probably to be expected from a Master Swordsman who is very short and slender. Senkaku, despite being a giant of a man who is very heavily muscled, is nonetheless perfectly able to keep up with Kenshin. Eventually deconstructed, as due to Senkaku's much greater weight, moving at that speed puts much more stress on his body particularly his joints, and his knee suddenly gives out on him in the middle of the fight as he attempts to keep pace with Kenshin.
