Other Cures do this, taking it Up to Eleven in Heartcatch Pretty Cure where it feels more like Dragonball Z-type fights.Cure Black in Pretty Cure does this, in what is probably a Shout-Out to the two above series.The characters in Dragonball Z do this all the time.Page after page after page of MUDAMUDAMUDAMUDA punctuated by a single page of WRYYYYYY! Just in case anyone forgot whose son he was. Giorno Giovanna, probably has the most triumphant and ridiculous example ever when utterly destroying the sadist Cioccolatta.

The most famous two users of this ability are Dio and Jotaro, who both have their own oft-parodied battle cries. A staple ability of many Stands is to launch a furious assault of fists.Well, as close to rapid-fire fisticuffs as you can get in real life, anyway. There was a Hokuto no Ken arcade game where the idea was to punch fast.Excel Saga has a great parody during their Fist of the North Star parody: Excel uses Hokuto Hyakuretsu Ken on a gang leader (who looks exactly like Zeed, the first poor bastard who got hit with it in the original series), but instead of exploding, he gets turned into a cutesy, cat-eared, maid costume-wearing midget.The anime version of Great Teacher Onizuka has Onizuka not only pretend he's Kenshiro, but has him beat the crap out of some thugs with Hokuto Hyakuretsu Ken.Moreover, Kenshirou's technique that dealt the final blows to the about-to-be-defeated Souther is (superficially) identical. Oddly enough, the "fist spamming" was also used several times by other fighters without ever being called this, although at least Raoh had also practiced the same style as Kenshiro.In Fist of the North Star, Kenshiro's Hokuto Hyakuretsu Ken (North Star Hundred Cracks Fist) became so famous that most Fist of the North Star parodies will need to involve this, or spoofing other examples of this trope with his battle cries ("ATATATATATATATA!").(For those not in the know, Jeet Kune Do is a Martial Art developed by Bruce Lee. It's really difficult to keep at it for very long, though. This is actually Truth in Television, as there is actually a Jeet Kune Do technique called the "Straightblast" which is exactly this. Note also that while this trope is traditionally done with punches, there do exist many kick-based examples it's especially common when it comes to higher-level Kick Chicks. The next step up in cool is the Pummel Duel, where both fighters do this and try to overwhelm the other. In trading power per hit for a large hit count, unless you're a Lightning Bruiser with both to spare, beware Punch-Punch-Punch Uh-Oh. This trope is a type of Death in All Directions. When a character does this while armed, it is a Spam Attack. It is often combined with a Flash Step for extra effectiveness against a single foe, or for taking on crowds, resulting in Teleport Spam or Speed Blitz. Rapid-Fire Fisticuffs are a staple maneuver by nearly every comic book speedster ever published. If you use one of these attacks in a fighting game, you can almost expect that this move's command will involve tapping your Attack button rapidly. Multiple hits are guaranteed, and even if each strike doesn't cause much damage by itself, the cumulative effect can be absolutely brutal. A phenomenon common to animation, video games, and comic books, Rapid-Fire Fisticuffs is the act of a punching an opponent dozens (if not hundreds, if not thousands) of times a second.
