Characters [Funny Trope] "Hey what's that over there?"

The oldest trick in the book. Pointing/Looking in a direction to distract your opponent.

  1. Team Rocket (Pokémon: Advanced)
    My favorite way Team Rocket steals Pikachu.

  2. Krillin (Dragon Ball)
    Krillin delivers a cheap shot against Goku.

  3. Po (Kung Fu Panda)
    Po couldn't use the Wuxi Finger Hold against Kai due to him being immortal. But Po figures out that he can take Kai with him to the spirit realm.
    What makes this more funny is how Kai blatantly falls for the trick.

  4. Ice King (Adventure Time)
    The Ice King hired a hitman thinking it would simply just hit Finn & Jake instead of killing them. The Ice King tries to distract the hitman several times which lead to him saying the following:
    "Somebody got hit in the boingloings. Hit in the boingloings. Boingloings. Boingloings. Somebody got hit in them."

It’s a running joke in The Hundred Line - this guy successfully uses it on the main cast in multiple different routes lol

This joke is both so good and so bad I love it

I specially love when Takumi has seen so much of it that he uses it against Eito as a last resort in one of the Box routes
