You know how Throwing Your Sword Always Works? Well, let's crank that up a pinch with some Beam Spam thrown in; and you've got this Death In All Directions trope. The Storm of Blades is a multitude of sharp objects descending upon the enemy. Just as potent as the stabby death is the Symbolism of the Sword, squared. Aggression, offense, smite. Sister Trope to Flechette Storm, Rain of Arrows and Blade Spam. It will typically involve Flying Weapons although versions when the swords are thrown exist. Also logically this trope will naturally end up with a Field of Blades. Not to be confused with the novel A Storm of Swords. |

In the Adventure Time episode "Rainy Day Daydream", Finn and Jake are stuck inside thanks to a "knifestorm". This phenomenon is apparently not as common as rain in the Land of Ooo, but is common enough that Jake recognizes it on sight (though 13-year-old Finn had never seen it before). | |

Bleach: One of Kaname Tousen's shikai attacks is Benihiko, which creates hundreds of blades that rain down on his opponent. In Shikai or its lowest level of Bankai, Byakuya's sword forms a swirling mass of tiny blossom-like blades. Byakuya can create the form of tiny daggers or entire swords out of them, enabling him create a storm of blades whenever he likes. When the Bankai enters Senkei, it creates an arena of thousands of fully-formed swords. Although Byakuya promises not to fight Ichigo with any more than swords than his two hands can hold, when later faced with a Quincy opponent who can take on him, Zaraki and Hitsugaya at the same time, he unleashes the entire lot at Gerard's head. |

In Umineko: When They Cry, most fights are fought by using wedges of truth created by Red Truth (the absolute truth) and Blue Truth (theories that can pierce the red truth or be denied by them), though this trope only pops up in two instances. First, in the Episode 4 Tea Party where Battler tries to get through Beatrice's riddles, he ends up piercing them with these en masse, ending with Beato skewered by many lances that appear from the ground. The second occurs in Episode 8 where Battler and Bernkastel have one fight to determine how the story will end for Ange. Bernkastel abides by the game's rules, where she provides riddles that Battler must answer, lest he'll be skewered by them. However, because there's no set time by which the riddles must be answered or limit as to how many can be thrown, Bernkastel takes advantage of this and decides to throw all of her riddles at once, making them take the form of blue wings made of blades, which end up turning into an eight headed Orochi whose very teeth, scales, everything is made up of the blades! |

Bloons TD 5 features Blade Maelstrom as the activated ability for the Tack Shooter. It sends out a rotating storm of blades with infinite pierce, making them great at taking down Zerg Rushes of Bloons, and it recharges a lot faster than most other abilities. BTD6 adds an upgraded version, the Super Maelstrom, which shoots twice as many blades for a much longer period of time, letting it decimate even more Bloons with every use. | |

Inuyasha: Kagura's Dance of Blades sends several energy blades at the opponent. Inuyasha's "Blades of Blood" technique also applies. He uses his own blood and swipes his claws across thin air in such a way that tons of blades made of blood are let loose upon his enemies. And then there's Inuyasha's Koungousouha ("Adamant Barrage" in the dub), gained from Hosenki and later copied by Naraku, wherein he launches a hail of spears made out of diamond which somehow passes through barriers like they're not even there. And then his most powerful attack, the Cutting Meidou Zangetsuha, wherein he throws a rain of portals that can tear through pretty much anything, up to and including the barriers between life and death, and overlapping dimensions. |

The Epic Battle Fantasy series has Ragnarok, which drops a collection of giant swords, axes and spears onto the battlefield before following up with a giant version of Matt's signature sword, Heaven's Gate. It first appeared as a summon for Natalie in Epic Battle Fantasy 1 named Catastrophe (or Calamity in the EBF Collection), before returning as a reocurring Limit Break for Matt in Epic Battle Fantasy 3. Epic Battle Fantasy 4 would give it an accuracy and power buff, whilst Epic Battle Fantasy 5 would have Ragnarok give the party a significant Attack buff and the Brave Status Effect upon being cast. | |

In Neptunia, Neptune does this with energy swords and Vert does this with lances for some of their special attacks. Exaggerated in VII, where Vert's strongest Limit Break involves summoning and firing almost 100 lances at her target. | |

Final Fantasy XV has a thing for this trope. Early in the main game, Noctis Lucis Caelum acquires Armiger. There are thirteen royal arms attainable throughout the game; after acquiring the first three, Noctis can enter a Super Mode that lets him wield them all at once, striking the enemy with one while the rest bombard them from all directions. This power is actually innate to the royal line of Lucis, although Noct's father Regis shows that it's not tied directly to the royal arms. Episode Ignis has Ignis' "Total Clarity" which lets him unleash a specific attack depending on what element he's enchanted his daggers with. Flamebound Total Clarity has him hurl his daggers at the enemy in this manner. Late in the game (and in the non-canon Verse 2 of Episode Ignis) Ardyn reintroduces himself as Ardyn Lucis Caelum, and come the Final Boss fight, it turns out he's got an Armiger, too. Episode Ardyn has his primary weapon giving him access to a dozen phantom swords that attack his opponent in succession with his physical blade, and when he has all twelve, his warp-strike turns into Royal Retribution, which rather resembles the page image. Bahamut, the Draconian is also known as the Bladekeeper for this reason; he carries a BFS, his wings are made of BFSes, and his summon ability has him bombard the Citadel courtyard with all of them and then some. |

Three of the most powerful enemy magic attacks in Super Mario RPG are "Sword Rain," "Spear Rain" and "Arrow Rain," all of which are unique to the final boss fight against Smithy. During the first stage of the fight Smithy can summon lackeys that know "Sword Rain," while during the second phase of the fight Smithy can use all three attacks, but only when he morphs his head into the "Magic Head" form. | |

One of the most powerful spells in the Age of Wonders series features a volley of sharp projectiles raining on the entire field. The Spell appears in the second game, but this time, it rains actual swords, that only hit enemies. It is also the most powerful spell that can be used by heroes, which means you can actually use this spell several times in a single fight. | |

In Yakuza: Like a Dragon, Goro Majima's Poundmates summon is just as over the top as can be expected from the Mad Dog. It starts off with him running down the building while lightning strikes down, then jumping off while throwing a insanely huge amount of knives, which he then begins to kick towards the ground, that somehow doubles the amount of knives falling, he then finishes off the attack by grabbing one of his daggers and then striking down with lightning bolt following after to damage Ichiban's enemies. | |

This trope appears often in the Final Fantasy Series, From Final Fantasy XII we have the Big Bad Vayne who has 10 or so swords called Sephira flying around and cutting you while he just beats you down with his fists and magic, there is also Basch whose final Quickening Flame Purge impales the enemies with a bunch of fiery swords. Final Fantasy XIV: The Ninja’s level 3 Limit Break, Chimatsuri, summons dozens of phantom katanas and launches them at the target from all directions. The Red Mage’s Contre Sixte ability is similar, launching six magical swords at the target. From Dissidia Final Fantasy we have The Warrior of Light who shoots swords of light at his enemy when in EX Mode and during his Radiant Sword attack as well as The Onion Knight who spams a LOT of sword like beams after his sword attacks and of course we have Gabranth who uses the aforementioned Basch's Quickening except his is named Frost Purge and finally Ultimecia's Knight's Blade attack fires a bunch of sword shaped missiles at the enemies. Final Fantasy XV has a thing for this trope. Early in the main game, Noctis Lucis Caelum acquires Armiger.

One of the Silent's rare cards in Slay the Spire is called Storm of Steel, which discards your entire hand and replaces it with an equal number of free shivs. Shiv decks aim for this in general, as there are very few cards that only generate one - the Silent apparently keeps ludicrous numbers of them under her cloak, according to the card art for Infinite Blades (a power that produces a free shiv at the start of each turn). | |

In Fate/stay night, this trope shows up twice: Gilgamesh's Gate of Babylon allows him to draw out legendary weapons and have them rain down on his opponent, since he doesn't know how to actually use most of them. This is the reason he is classified as Archer. In the prequel, Fate/Zero, he uses it to fatally wound Iskandar. Archer's Unlimited Blade Works can be used to the same effect, except that instead of normal swords it rains down functional copies of them. This can also be done by Archer outside of it, though to a lesser extent than what is available after activating Unlimited Blade Works. Unlimited Blade Works can also be used to directly copy another Storm of Blades, like the one created by the Gate of Babylon, and thus can nullify it with Fearful Symmetry. This is something Shirou, the past self of Archer, uses to his advantage when he has to fight Gilgamesh during the Unlimited Blade Works route. |

In Fengshen Yanyi, the Howling Wind Formation is a deadly magical trap where a powerful black wind launches whoever enters inside the formation's ground into a wall of super-sharp blades. Then there are the Ten Thousands Blades Wheels, a pair of harmless-looking paper pinwheels adorned with hanzi and talismans but capable of launching an array of flames, wind and countless swords and cutlasses at the victims. What's more, the original Wheels are only two, but they can be mass-produced and given to ordinary soldiers to multiply the deadly effect. | |

A variation appears in the Exile series, starting with Exile II, in the form of blade walls: clouds of floating blades that could be passed through if you didn't mind taking major damage from them.

Kingdom Hearts: This pops up every now and again: Riku demonstrates this by shooting copies of his sword Soul Eater at the enemy with his Dark Impulse sleight in Re:Chain of Memories. Xaldin carries six spears, but since he's already pushing the limits by having his hands on three in his idle pose, his wind powers usually move them for him. One move in Sora and Riku's Eternal Session is XIII Blades, where swords revolve around them. Xemnas' final move during his boss fight in Kingdom Hearts II is to manifest his Ethereal Blades in all directions and have them bombard Sora and Riku therefrom. His data battle in Kingdom Hearts III: Re��Mind uses a variation on the attack that consists of three waves that Sora has to block alone while also dodging unblockable blue lasers. Ventus from Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep has a command style that combines this with Multi Wielding called Wing Blade. The style also pops up in his Multivortex Shotlock. Master Xehanort has made a habit out of exploiting the Field of Keyblades in the Keyblade Graveyard for this trope, invoking a magical wind to throw Keys around. Both Master Eraqus in Birth by Sleep and Sora's Heartless in coded summon torrents of Keyblade echoes to bombard on the player. In Kingdom Hearts III, Sora gets in on the action when the fight arrives at the Keyblade Graveyard. Unlike Xehanort, however, Sora doesn't do this one himself; every dead warrior from the Keyblade War sends their Keyblade to help Sora fight off a titanic Demon Tide. Also from III, the Ultima Weapon's formchange causes most of Sora's attacks to summon dozens of Keyblades that rain down upon enemies. |
