* ''[[Ranma ~~One Half~~|Ranma 1/2]]'' deserves a spot on this page. The main cast is already superhuman (and even here they're jockeying for "betterness"), and they routinely come across other people ''who are better.'' Most of this main cast will [[Take a Level In Badass]] to defeat the better bunch, but only after having their collective/respective backsides handed to them. Victory is often about exploiting a weakness instead of through the application of superior firepower.
