Spinning Out of Here | comment |
In fantasy and science fiction works, teleportation (in some sort of form) frequently appears as a common form of travel. Often, the person teleporting will trigger the teleportation by spinning in place. Alternatively, the entry into teleportation may not involve rotation, but the actual travel spins the traveler. While a reason may sometimes be given for the spinning, it often occurs primarily because it looks (or sounds) cool or because spinning signals to the viewer that something is going to happen, thus avoiding catching the viewer off guard. This is a sub-trope of Spectacular Spinning. If the teleportation device itself spins (as opposed to the people spinning within the device), it's When Things Spin, Science Happens. The tropes are similar in that in both cases, the spinning occurs either to invoke Rule of Cool or to avoid confusing the audience. Note that this trope can apply to all forms of magical transportation; teleportation is just its most common form. Examples |

Parodied in Valkyrie Profile: Covenant of the Plume's Bonus Dungeon, where one of your characters starts spinning rapidly out of excitement and flies off. Some NPCs tell him to wait for them and follow him in a similar manner, except for the last one, who just asks The Hero if he excepted him to fly off spinning and walks away. | |

In Harry Potter: Apparition is triggered by spinning in place. Travel by Floo sends the traveler spinning to their destination. In the movie, transit by Portkey is depicted with the passengers whirling around the Portkey. The Floo powder example is parodied in A Very Potter Musical: using Floo powder involves the characters spinning in place and shouting "Floo powder power! Floo powder power!" while all lights go dark except random flashing colors. |

Both Kitana and Khameleon borrow this move in Armageddon. In Mortal Kombat 9, Rain's intro pose actually inverts this. A wind storm blows in, with Rain's figure quickly forming out of it and gearing up for battle. |

In Bomberman Tournament, each Karabon has its own special ability that can help Bomberman when exploring (some are passive, others need to be activated manually). Pommy (your first ally and a Captain Ersatz of Kirby and Pikachu) has the ability to transport Bomberman to any (major) town he's previously visited. Using this power causes Bomberman to spin rapidly before he's launched into the sky and lands in his intended destination. | |

Mother In the first game, the teleport spell is executed by having the character move around while accelerating rapidly before zooming off; because colliding with anything stops the teleport, the better the player is at moving in a small circle, the more places he can teleport from. Mother 2/EarthBound had two teleport spells, one of which worked the same as the first game and the other automatically making the party move in a tight spiral for much easier use. Also in EarthBound, both the Star Master and Camera Man enter/exit the screen by spinning. |
