The Ninja Air Fist is a power the Ninja can learn to conjure a blast of compressed air and use it to strike enemies.
Randy is able to use it defensively and offensively, but even though it is powerful, Randy uses it infrequently, implying this is arguably Randy's secondary signature attack since he used it more than once (but rarely) unlike the other ninja abilities he learned (except the Ninja Rage).
Description[]
This attack has a long range, and it can be shaped without fist-shaped gesture. It can be be used horizontally for width and vertically for power and height range. The steps and the time to form it can be almost instant or take a while. The move is strong enough to pierce through solid stone and metal. The move is also useful when the Ninja needs to deal a finishing blow or to defend thing(s).
Randy first learned this skill in "Monster Drill", at first thinking it made him look ridiculous, but finally mastering it to defeat the Robo-Mantis. Initially, Randy kept laughing when he attempted the third step which prevents him from performing the attack, but after learning respect, he stopped and use it to save Howard, defeat the Robo-Mantis, and by accident against Bucky and Flute Girl by mistaking them a monster.
He uses it the second time in "Grave Puncher: The Movie!" to knock the 7D grave puncher over, although it didn't defeat him as it its body itself is a hologram. To help himself and others escape, Randy uses it to knock a hole in the wall in "Escape from Detention Island".
In "Raiders of the Lost Nomicon", Randy is able to use it to temporarily stop the Sorcerer, knocking him down and temporarily disrupting his red stank. This was the first time Randy was able to fight or hit the Sorcerer, although it was to escape from the red stank's grip by creating an outwards blast of air.
In "Enter the Nomicon", Randy attempted to use this technique to take out Mac Antfee, but due to the lateral's being more experience he conjured a doodle sword and literally sliced the technique in half.
This ability made a cameo in "The Ninja Identity", along with the Earth Attack as a suggestion to defeat the Psycho-Bot.
To knock a meteorite in "Lucius O'Thunderpunch", Randy starts to use this move, which takes a while, but he doesn't use it when he is interrupted by Lucius, who destroys the meteorite with a canon.
In "Bring Me the Head of Ranginald Bagel!" , Randy used it to destroy one of the Executioner Bot's head when he was protecting Ranginald Bagel from being killed. In "Randy Cunningham: 13th Century Ninja" Randy used this twice when he attempted to distract the Sorcerer from getting the Tengu Stone. Randy used the ability in “Everybody Ninj-along“ against the Honey Badger Bot. The bot however swallowed it.
In “Shoot First, Ask Questions Laser” Randy used the ability to take out a Gorilla Bot who kidnapped a lady, unknown to Randy it was a robot that sprayed tracking goo. In "Happy Hanukkah, Howard Weinerman" he uses it twice during the episode. Once when he used it to stop the Game Hole Truck from crashing and he later used it in conjunction with the Hydro Hand, to move an arcade game. He also modify the technique by shaping the fist into a palm to stop objects in motion or to do a little push off after he made ice. In "Rorg: A Hero of a Past" Randy used the Air Fist to make a giant shoe squash the Tar-hand-tula robot. In "Ball's Well That Friends Well" Randy used it for the last time to knock Evil Julian off his feet when he teamed up with The Sorcerer.
Mastering Ninja Air Fist[]
To learn this move, the Ninja is required to learn and practice it in the NinjaNomicon. The steps to do it is:
- Separate the clouds
- Gather the fallen winds
- Free the chicken
Ninja Online Games[]
In Ninja Sprint, the technique played an important role which is to knock a shielded opponent, multiple enemies in a row, or side to side, a good way to damage.
In Punchocalypse, it did not really play a role. It can wall an enemy but causes less damage. It can be used rapidly in mid-air.
This is also a powerful move in Monster Mayhem.
