Line 19:
* The anime of ''[[D.N.Angel]]'' opens on a fight between Dark and Krad that apparently happened in the past, before cutting to the high school [[Shojo]] romance opening of the manga.
* ''[[Venus Versus Virus]]'''s [[Pragmatic Adaptation|anime version]] has this. Guns, check. Shooting stuff with said gun? Check. [[Eyepatch of Power|Eyepatch wearing]] [[Elegant Gothic Lolita|Gothic lolita girl]] [[The Gunslinger|wielding the gun]]? Check. Creepy girl with [[Red Eyes, Take Warning|red eyes]]? Check. Then we cut to the [[Ear Worm]] of an opening. In the manga however, the intro is mellow, and shows how Sumire became the way she is.
* ''[[Berserk]]'' is a extreme example: it starts with a two and 2/3 volumes of story to establish the setting and then has a ''twelve'' volume flashback before reaching the point of time when it started. The anime follows suit with its first episode (basically a shortened version of the first episode without Puck), which is given no explanation as to how it happened, given that the anime ended at a point where the story could have only gotten there based on action taken by [[SchrodingersSchrödinger's Cat|characters that were never introduced in the anime]].
* Not exactly ''action'', but ''[[Higurashi no Naku Koro ni]]'''s anime adaptation opens with watching a half-obscured silhouette beating someone to death with a blunt instrument... And then the OP starts playing...
** Which is based on how the game begins with a narration going along with a the sound of something hitting something else.
