** Also Kirei Kotomine in ''[[Fate Zero]]''
* [[Kinnikuman|Warsman's]] Bear Claws.
* They're only part of Mousse's [[Hyperspace Arsenal|enormous arsenal]] in ''[[Ranma One Half]]'', but received particular attention in the [[Non -Serial Movie|second movie]].
* Lust from ''[[Fullmetal Alchemist]]'', though she's turning her fingers ''into'' spears instead of having them come out of her hand.
* Denkibou from ''[[Samurai Champloo]]''
Line 85:
 
== [[Live Action TV]] ==
* Cylon Centurions in the reimagined ''[[Battlestar Galactica Reimagined (TV)|Battlestar Galactica Reimagined]]'' are built with razor-sharp fingertips that serve as claws, and can be folded back when it's necessary to handle squishy things.
* Kari gets a set on ''[[Myth Busters (TV)|Myth Busters]]'' for the end of the "Balloon Kid" myth. Turns out Scottie's [[Playing With Fire|fire]] [[Breath Weapon|breath]] was more effective.
* In ''[[Super Sentai]]'' / ''[[Power Rangers]],'' a few villains have these; [[Power Rangers Mystic Force|Necrolai]] gains them as part of a one-time-only powerup while her sentai counterpart [[Mahou Sentai Magiranger|Vancuria]] gained an [[Automatic Crossbows|automatic crossbow]] and a [[BFG]] instead, and [[Juken Sentai Gekiranger|Maku]] /[[Power Rangers Jungle Fury|Grizzaka]] have claws that even ''pop out of their fists'' in the same way Wolverine's do.)
Line 110:
* In [[MARDEK]], the [[Starfish Alien|wolflike Aruan]] mage Solaar fights with claw weapons strapped to his (her? its?) paws.
* There's an odd example in ''[[Jade Empire]]''. The visuals are spot on, but it's an illusion: the flavour text for the style emphasises that Leaping Tiger (for 'tis its name) is so ferocious that claws ''seem'' to sprout from the fists of the practitioner.
* Several fist weapons in ''[[World of Warcraft]]'' are gauntlets that have these attached to them. In one of the game's many, many [[Shout -Out|shouts-out]], one set can be seen sported by a wolverine-person named Loguhn.
* ''[[City of Heroes (Video Game)|City of Heroes]]'' has the Claws power set for this, as does ''[[Champions Online (Video Game)|Champions Online]]''. While the latter's claws are obviously similar to bladed brass knuckles, the former's look more like they come out of the character's hands.
** City of Heroes claws appear to come out of your hand because all weapon-based powersets, when not actively in use, are stored in Hammerspace. The actual style of the claws varies from Wolverine-style claws to spikes on the back of the hand, a long flat blade from the back of the wrist a la [[Assassin's Creed]], and even an option for [[Energy Weapon|wristblades made of energy.]]
