Kattobingu (かっとビング) is a term used by Yuma Tsukumo in Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL. In the dub, it is usually changed to "feelin' the flow"; In the English manga, to "jetting". The term has no actual meaning. Katto means "to flare up", while bingu is simply a Japanese rendering of the English onomatopoeia "bing".

The term is used by Yuma as a catchphrase, created by his father, Kazuma Tsukumo and was passed on to him. However, it is more important than that, and Yuma considers it to be among the most important things his father taught him. The meaning behind the term is; to never give up even it seems impossible, to always challenge, and to believe in oneself.[1]

Several equivalents were used by the English fanbase, such as "Bring It to 'Em", "Pop Flying" and "Fly High to the Sky", but it is ultimately a made-up word and therefore cannot be properly translated.

Other characters also have their own versions of "Kattobingu":

  • Cathy uses "Catbingu" (キャットビング, Kyattobingu)[2]
  • Pip uses "Dogbingu" (ドッグビング, Doggubingu)[3]
  • Kotori uses "Kotori Kattobingu" (かっとビング 小鳥, Kattobingu Kotori)[4][5]
  • Yuma created "Kaitobingu" (カイトビング) as a way to cheer up Kite Tenjo.[6]
  • Caswell uses "Todorobingu" (とどろビング), a portmanteau of Kattobingu and his original name, Todoroki.[7]
  • Gilag uses "Uwatabingu" in a way to show that he is losing.[8]
