According to legend, the ancient, simple child's toy known as the yo-yo took on use as a combat weapon in the hands of Filipino tribesmen centuries ago.note There is no historical evidence of this. Historians attribute the legend to Filipino hero Jose Rizal, who claimed it either as a joke or a fun, creative story — he used to carve and play with yo-yos while traveling on ships, and founded a massively successful company that produced and sold yo-yos in the United States, which generated a mass yo-yo craze that lasted even throughout The Great Depression. Whether it's true or not, if you see a yo-yo in a series with combat, particularly in an anime or video game and particularly in the hands of a young child, it's a safe bet that it will be slung with deadly intent and accuracy. The legend may stem partially from the fact that as a weapon, the yo-yo bears a resemblance to a few hunting tools and weapons such as the Chinese meteor-hammer, the Argentinian bolas, and the maritime slungshot. The mundane yo-yo makes a cute and fancy stand-in for these types of weapons. It's also no joke that some yo-yo toys, from the traditional Chinese yo-yo to modern metal, weighted ones, can cause serious injuries purely by accident. Even the small plastic modern yo-yos, in the hands of a small child, can, and sometimes will, cause major harm to anyone and anything in the yo-yo's vicinity without the need of any magic or special training at all. A type of Epic Flail. See also Brats with Slingshots and Improbable Weapon User. Compare Battle Tops. Your Killer Yoyo is likely to be wielded by a Badass Adorable or a Little Miss Badass, if the writer is playing up the "deadly yet cute" aspect of this trope. |

The main weapon of Ladybug in Miraculous Ladybug. She mainly uses it for Spidey-style Building Swinging. The string is as long as she wills it to be, she can Spin to Deflect Stuff with it, the whole thing is indestructible by mundane means, and she use it as a video phone. It's explicitly the product of the magical artifact that provides her powers. | |

The mooks who is known by the alias as "Yo Yo" in Healer has a yo-yo that has a rather sharp string, though it only comes into play when its wrapped around something like an arm and pulled. It has the benefit of being something counted as a toy even if it is only about as effective as you'd expect a weighted yo-yo to be and he prefers a gun when he can get away with it. | |

The Flash: The Trickster has included yo-yos in his arsenal. While under the Top's influence, his near-obsessive use of the yo-yo (commented on by one of the G-Men) is probably also a tell for the normally playful James being buried under the stern, serious Agent Jesse, possibly as a bit of a slip in Top's mind screw. | |

When Yami Yugi uses one against them, he's so good with it he brought down the roof of a shed! In the anime, one of the yo-yos even has spikes. |

EarthBound (1994): One of the ranged weapons is a yo-yo. It's practically useless, but all ranged weapons (except Jeff's best ones) suck in this game. Strangely enough, in his appearances in the Super Smash Bros. series, his yo-yo attacks are much more useful: in the first game, they do massive damage, and in Melee, can be used in a Ness-only glitch to make him virtually-untouchable. Justified, as Ness uses his PSI to manipulate the force and motion of the yo-yo (and his other weaponry). |

Neopets: The "Yo-yo of Death" is one of many Battledome weapons that only appeared in the Hidden Tower, which houses the best and most expensive items in the game and only allows one purchase per customer per day. Unfortunately, it's not a particularly effective weapon; it has a low chance of dealing spectacular damage, but that's about it. It's since been retired. | |

Sukeban Deka: Saki Asamiya was armed with a special metal yo-yo, which became her signature weapon — so much so that it's an integral element in the logo for the 2006 Live-Action Adaptation (now available in the United States under the title Yo-Yo Girl Cop). | |

Hunter × Hunter: When Killua uses weapons, super-yo-yos on wires are his preferred choice; he's shown knocking chunks out of trees with them (he's super-strong, and the things weigh 40 kilograms each). | |

Mega Man Battle Network 2 introduces the Yo-Yo chip. It deploys spinning blades from the disk as it's fired 3 panels ahead and deals double damage to any enemy in its way and triple damage to the enemy on the third panel and stuns the enemy instead of making them flinch allowing Mega Man to attack again. They also count as sword chips, making them useful against the Shadow viruses. | |

Cadderly Bonaduce, a character in the Forgotten Realms novel series The Cleric Quintet, uses a halfling "spindle disk" to great effect. They became even more effective when he coated them in filled them with oil of impact... Their original incarnation, before the aforementioned addition to their firepower, wasn't all that strong and effective, as they were made from rock crystal. (In fact, Cadderly was aware of that from the start — he simply pulled an Ain't No Rule to have his toy classified as a 'weapon' for training purposes, being more interested in tinkering and occasionally fooling around than actual fighting at the time.) However, when Ivan makes him a new pair out of Adamantite, even he admits that they're a good weapon (while having to remove a piece of someone's face before giving them to Cadderly). |

Terraria: Yo-yos are part of the melee class, and a legitimately viable sub-category. They are thrown out to attack and follow the mouse for a set period of time, do continuous damage as long as they make contact with an enemy, then retract. They can be difficult to master, not so much for lacking damage but because of poor crowd control and knockback; the fact that they follow the mouse allows the player to attack from behind cover, making for easy but cheesy strategies. They also have accessories that can increase their length, launch out a counterweight (or several), and even send out a second yo-yo. Further along in the game, powerful yo-yos don't retract unless you release the button and some even spawn separate projectiles. | |
