History Main / KickChick

* Karin from ''VideoGame/EnchantedArms'' - her weapons are boots, and her techniques are either kicks, water elemental attacks, or healing skills.* [[VisualNovel/{{Kanon}} Nayuki Minase]] (awake) from ''VideoGame/EternalFighterZero'' fights [[ExtremityExtremist exclusively with kicks]], given that she's the [[IKnowMaddenKombat captain of the school's track team]].

* ''[[VideoGame/AdvancedVariableGeo Advanced V.G. II]]'':
** Kaori Yanase is ''V.G's'' equivalent of [[Characters/ArtOfFighting King]], and even performs her [[KiManipulation Ki Attacks]] through her legs. Though Kaori is a practitioner of Taekwondo, rather than Nak Muay.
** [[AloofDarkhairedGirl Kyoko]] [[LadyOfWar Kirishima's]] are also lethal weapons, as her leg reach and her attack speed allow her to [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OoY0pT4fcqU whip out infintes]], once she's mastered.

* Wakaba from ''VideoGame/SuikodenII'' does this, and her personal weapon is a pair of shin guards to protect her legs.* ''[[VideoGame/AdvancedVariableGeo Advanced V.G. II]]'':

* Miriam in ''VideoGame/BloodstainedRitualOfTheNight'' uses kicks as her default attack if unarmed, and also has a variety of [[ArmedLegs deadly, weaponized boots]].

[[caption-width-right:309:ShesGotLegs, [[Music/ZZTop she knows how to use them]]!]]

A character (typically AlwaysFemale, hence the name) who fights almost entirely with kicks for the purpose of [[ShesGotLegs showing off her legs]]. She may occasionally throw a punch, but kicking is her primary means of offense. Why do some fighters do this? Perhaps it's because kicks have better range, or feet with shoes are less sensitive to pain than bare hands, or they have stronger legs than arms. However, in her case it's partly due to the RuleOfSexy.

* Yan from ''VideoGame/{{Indivisible}}'' is [[ShesGotLegs mostly leg]]; her attacks consist entirely of kicks and knee strikes. [[JustifiedTrope Then again]], she's a [[DanceBattler ballerina]] who was [[HandicappedBadass born without arms]].

** The Ultra Beast Pheromosa resemble elegant cockroach-women (though in-game they're [[NoBiologicalSex genderless]]) and have [[ShesGotLegs long lithe legs]] that are more than just eye candy: Pheromosa, if threatened, will kick with blinding speed as their muscles are designed with twitchy movements and quick bursts of speed and power.

* [[ShesGotLegs Leggy]] [[DeadlyDoctor school nurse]] Kyoko Minazuki from ''VideoGame/RivalSchools''.

* ''LightNovel/BeastTamerAndTheCatGirl'': While Kanade does use punches on occasion, nearly every time she enters combat she relies primarily on kicks. Her first and most frequently seen move is a drop kick from above, and kicks or knee attacks are her typical opening move in a given fight.

* Katt's fused form from ''VideoGame/BreathOfFireII'' trades away her SimpleStaff in favor of kicking enemies to death.

* When Orchid from ''VideoGame/KillerInstinct'' isn't smacking people with her [[SimpleStaff batons]] she attacks with lightning quick kicks.

* Elly from ''VideoGame/{{Xenogears}}'' has kicks as her secondary attack with her [[SimpleStaff rods]] being primary and Ether attack spells being the FinishingMove.

* ''Franchise/LyricalNanoha''

* Envy Adams from ''ComicBook/ScottPilgrim'' surprises Ramona by kicking hard enough to stop her hammer, and almost gains the upper hand in their fight thanks to her kicks. {{Justified}} beyond fanservice due [[StatuesqueStunner being one of the tallest characters]], with relatively long legs.

* The female version of Judomaster in Franchise/TheDCU used a lot of kicks in her fighting (exactly the way that judo doesn't).
* ComicBook/{{Mystique}} has a pretty wide range of skills, but artists just ''love'' to show off her long toned yet shapely blue legs by having her do all kinds of impossible kicks.
* Although it is not her only combat move, ComicBook/BlackCanary does use a lot of kicks, all the better to highlight he shapely [[StockingFiller fishnet clad legs]]. During her short lived 90s series, she fought a villain called Capoeira, whose combat style was also heavily based on kicks, making their battles very much a kick-fest.
* ''Franchise/WonderWoman'' [[ComicBook/WonderWoman1942 Vol 1]]: Lt. Lauren Haley does almost all of her unarmed fighting with varied kicks.

* ''Film/BirdsOfPrey'': Harley Quinn, Huntress, and especially Black Canary tend to use a lot of kicks when they're not wielding weapons.

* In ''Series/{{Alias}}'', Sydney Bristow is primarily a kickboxer. One episode lampshades this very trope when her opponent (played by Quentin Tarantino), who is primarily a pugilist, observes that the problem with kick boxers is that they lack the upper body strength for either doling out or taking powerful punches. While Sydney accepts his criticism as valid, she eventually manages to prove that he can't take the kicks of a really good kick boxer either.

* ''Franchise/StreetFighter''
** The possible TropeCodifier: [[VideoGame/StreetFighterII Chun-Li]], pictured above. Strangely enough, she had some effective (and pretty hard) punches in both 2 and the Alpha games. It wasn't until 3 that her "legs that took down an organization" status really took hold, with most of her punches replaced by ineffective/silly looking chops or slaps. In particular, her crouch hard punch took a ''big'' hit.
*** Her standing hard punches in ''[[VideoGame/StreetFighterIII 3rd Strike]]'' however actually avert this in competitive play, considering how [[GameBreaker good]] they are.
** Elena from ''VideoGame/StreetFighterIII'' takes it another step by ''[[ExtremityExtremist not ever using her hands]]'' (being a DanceBattler and practitioner of UsefulNotes/{{Capoeira}}). She even ''throws'' with her legs.
** Newcomer Juri in ''Super VideoGame/StreetFighterIV'' is a Tae Kwon Do prodigy. She even manages [[KiManipulation Ki Attacks]] with her feet. Her fierce punch command is also a kick.
** Ibuki, while being more watered down, has more kicks than punches, and her kicks, especially her special attacks that use her legs, do more damage than any hand-related attack.
%%** Blair Dame from ''VideoGame/StreetFighterEX''.
* ''VideoGame/VirtuaFighter''
** Included in Sarah Bryant's arsenal are the knee, jumping knee, jumping spin kick, legsweep, flamengo stance kicks, kickflip, and the beat gatling throw.
** [[AnimeChineseGirl Pai-Chan]] mainly uses kicking attacks in TheAnimeOfTheGame. However, the bad guys catch up with her fighting style, and [[FauxActionGirl she's ended up useless]] in any non-{{mook|s}} battle. More exactly, Pai's Enseiken fighting style is said in-TV series to be useless in some battle conditions. The BigBad, Liu Kowloon, is also a martial artist and knows about this very well -- often sending out non-Mooks that are specially trained into creating said conditions and neutralising [[RunawayFiance Pai]] [[IHaveYouNowMyPretty so they can bring her back to him]] (there's even a whole scene in the beginning in which Kowloon explains this to Pai). Said conditions don't apply in the games for obvious reasons, so she retains her fighting competence.
* Wakaba from ''VideoGame/SuikodenII'' does this, and her personal weapon is a pair of shin guards to protect her legs.
* Carmelita Fox has this in ''VideoGame/Sly3HonorAmongThieves'' as a secondary attack option when enemies get too close for her to effectively employ her [[FamilyFriendlyFirearms shock pistol]]. Her roundhouse kick is powerful enough to send mooks twice her size flying several feet.
* Chie Satonaka from ''VideoGame/Persona4'' ''lives'' this trope. Taking out items is the only thing she'll do with her hands, but beyond that, attacking, invocation, or even ''defending'' are all done with her legs. [[FunnyBruceLeeNoises HWA-TAAAAAAAA]]!
* In the character creation mode for ''[[VideoGame/SoulSeries Soulcalibur III]]'', the Grieve Edge weapon is essentially a metal shoe with a blade attached to it.

** [[{{bifauxnen}} King]] is the series' foremost example, being a practicioner of the Nak Muay style of kickboxing. While her punches consists of jabs, hooks, and elbow strikes that inflict light damage, her kicks are generally stronger and are her chief means of attack. Even her [[KiManipulation "Venom Strike"]] and [[SpamAttack "Phantom Venom"]] are performed with her legs.

* ''[[VideoGame/AdvancedVariableGeo Advanced V.G. II]]'':
** Kaori Yanase is ''V.G's'' equivalent of [[Characters/ArtOfFighting King]], and even performs her [[KiManipulation Ki Attacks]] through her legs. Though Kaori is a practitioner of Taekwondo, rather than Nak Muay.
** [[AloofDarkhairedGirl Kyoko]] [[LadyOfWar Kirishima's]] are also lethal weapons, as her leg reach and her attack speed allow her to [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OoY0pT4fcqU whip out infintes]], once she's mastered.

* ''[[VideoGame/FightersHistory Fighter's History Dynamite]]'': Liu Yungmei performs kicks even when a punch button is pressed, uses her legs to block and throw opponents, and [[KiManipulation channels her K]] through her legs as well.

* Karin from ''VideoGame/EnchantedArms'' - her weapons are boots, and her techniques are either kicks, water elemental attacks, or healing skills.
* VideoGame/{{Iji}} uses either her {{BFG}} or her cybernetically-enhanced legs. She can kick enemy soldiers across the room.
* ''Franchise/{{Tekken}}'':
** The Williams sisters do quite a bit of damage with their [[CombatStilettos high-heeled kicks]], but the real damage is done when they grab the opponent and [[MurderousThighs start breaking bones]].
** If you're not spinning together a near-endless series of sweeping Capoeira kicks from Christie Monteiro, you're doing it wrong.
** Lili uses a lot of kicks as her style revolves around gymnastics.
* Reimi from ''VideoGame/StarOceanTheLastHope'' will flip-kick an enemy into the air for her close range attack, and has a special that delivers [[RapidFireFisticuffs Rapid-Fire Kicks]], but being TheArcher, she's predominantly a long-range character; It's a good Idea to [[GlassCannon keep her away from her opponents]].

* [[ClassyCatBurglar Rouge the Bat]] in ''VideoGame/SonicAdventure2'' uses attacks with kicks rather than punching.

She even gets an upgrade which allows her to dig using her legs.
* Wind goddess Fuuka from ''[[VideoGame/IzunaLegendOfTheUnemployedNinja Izuna 2: The Unemployed Ninja Returns]]''. The only available weapon type she can use is a set of boots, so she has little choice but to use her feet as weapons.
* Prier from ''VideoGame/LaPucelle'', to the extent she neglects to use (for the most part) the rod she's TRAINED how to fight with. Of course, with [[http://www.videogamesblogger.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/08/la-pucelle-tactics-heroine-prier.jpg legs like this...]]
* VideoGame/{{Bayonetta}}'s default fighting style combines this with GunsAkimbo, although her kicks [[ArmedLegs also fire guns in the enemy's face]].
