Puff-puff (Akira Toriyama)Puff-puff (Dragon Quest) – The term and associated scenes is by far the most widely known from Dragon Quest, making its original name more appropriate. The origins of its parodies in other series almost certainly stem from Dragon Quest's wide popularity in Japan as well. While Toriyama may have used it in Dragon Ball beforehand, it's just confusing to not associate it with Dragon Quest when there is no evidence it's all over his other works and the fact that it was even used in Dragon Ball first feels like more of a geeky trivia note than relevant. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ () 23:00, 24 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose and suggest Puff-puff (onomatopoeia), Puff-puff (activity), Puff-puff (sex act) or something similar instead. While the article is currently Dragon Quest focused, there was a version of it deleted a couple of years ago that was neutral and treated it as a general sex act, such as Mammary intercourse. A Jap Wiki disambiguation page at ja:パフパフ, an alternate spelling of the term, suggests it is a "common name" for a sex act and is commonly used in porn video titles. Also, the origin of anything is never "trivia". Xfansd (talk) 01:13, 25 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I think that onomatopoeia would be the best approach, as I think that the focus of the article is not on a real-world sex act or activity, so onomatopoeia would feel more appropriate. - Cukie Gherkin (talk) 02:14, 25 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
