** Ultimately, Light's excessive hubris is explained by the revelation of the fact that {{spoiler|[[The Ubermensch|he doesn't believe in morality at all and felt free to invent his own rules because he valued no life except his own]].}}
* ''[[Fist of the North Star]]'' is set in a post-apocalyptic wasteland where guns have ceased to exist. Martial arts masters who do not walk the path of righteousness will fall victim to this mental-illness and proceed to build an empire of blood, tears and tyranny.
* ''[[Hayate the Combat Butler (Manga)|Hayate the Combat Butler]]'': Katsura-sensei {{media-|cit_hayate_the_combat_butler_23_Katsura_a_god_am_i.jpg| makes a shout out}} to Light's trademark glowing eyes and "I will be god of a new world" line during her scheme to shame a rival teacher into leaving.
* ''[[Akira (Manga)|Akira]]'': this trope is a major theme.
* ''[[Neon Genesis Evangelion (Anime)|Neon Genesis Evangelion]]'': Gendo Ikari, combining this goal with [[Love Makes You Evil]] (he wants to make himself and Yui God), and is more explicit at the God part in the manga. He fails at trying to become a [[Physical God]], however. {{spoiler|Shinji and Rei do succeed in it, but [[Powered By a Forsaken Child|unwillingly]].}} Also part of Yui's plan. [[Mind Screw|Probably]]. Due to the nonsensical cosmology of this world, it's relatively easy for a Human to become any sort of God, since they already have one of the pieces needed. It just depends on how much of a God they become, and the ultimate version has potentially absolute control over reality, metaphysical concepts, and the ability to create new Universes at will. Maybe. We don't actually know, to be honest.
