In fiction, blast attacks are generated from all manner of places on the human body; the eyes, the mouth, the hands and even the chest. And then we have Head Blast. To put it simply, this is the act of firing attacks from the head. Typically this appears as either a beam fired from the forehead, a weapon mounted atop the head/around the face or even turning the head itself into some kind of blaster. Psychic power blasts, such as those fired by comic book telepaths, are usually depicted this way. A character who fires beams from their literal Third Eye does not qualify as this trope; that's Eye Beams. If it comes out of the mouth, it's a Breath Weapon. Can sometimes overlap with Weaponized Headgear and Psi Blast. Not to be confused with Boom, Headshot!, which deals with situations where a head is the target and not the cause of shooting. |

Guyver: This is one of the (many) weapons granted by the eponymous suit of bio-armour. Specifically a small laser emitter mounted roughly in the forehead. At the end of the day its probalby one of the weaker weapons but benefits from being more precise and faster firing than something like the Pressure Cannon and Mega Smasher. The Sonic Buster overlaps with this trope and Breath Weapon, given its sound-based nature and the emitters being mounted roughly where the Guyver's mouth would be normally. |

The Orville: In the two-part episode "Identity", we learn that robotic crew member Isaac, as well as his home race, the Kaylons, are now xenophobic and are bent on conquering the galaxy to curb what they see as illogical species waging war and destruction, much like their precursors did. What reveals them to be a very real threat is the fact that their heads open up, and what normally appears to be their "eyes" contain energy pulse weapons. | |

In the atmosphere or vacuum of space, this power usually manifests as an explosive beam of pink energy, but underwater, the Brain Blast disperses into a concussive wave attack, which unfortunately runs the risks of hurting Lexi herself. | |

Marvel Cinematic Universe: The Destroyer from Thor is an Asgardian Animated Armor that can fire energy blasts out of its face. Like his comic counterpart, Vision can fire energy blasts from his forehead (though he seems to lack his comic counterparts Eye Beams). This time, the source of the blasts is the Mind Stone. In Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania, Quantum Realm freedom fighter Xolum has just a glowing forward-facing cylinder for a head, so it's no surprise this is what it does. |

Other Ultras such as Ultraman Ace, Ultraman Taro and Ultraman Leo have displayed this ability as well; basically, if an Ultra have a gem embedded in their forehead, it's definitely capable of ejecting an energy blast. | |
