== Anime and Manga ==
* ''[[Blood
▲* ''[[Blood Plus]]'': Solomon's [[Blade Below the Shoulder]]. Simple, refined, and [[Absurdly Sharp Blade|capable of cutting through practically anything]].
* In ''[[Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann]]'', things are ''powered'' by awesome, so being awesome makes it practical by definition! Best seen early in the series when Simon tries to take the [[Boring but Practical]] route to [[Combining Mecha]] and just climb up Kamina's Gurren with his Lagann. Kamina ''attacks'' him until he does it more awesomely. And it really does work better that way!
* The [[Sphere of Destruction|Rasengan]] and Kage Bunshin/Shadow Clone Jutsu as part of [[Naruto]] Uzumaki's arsenal. So simple tricks...but so highly effective in battle. Even moreso when he uses his [[Super Mode]]{s}.
Line 18 ⟶ 17:
* ''[[Bleach]]'': Kenpachi Zaraki's entire schtick in battle is about this. He's the only captain in Soul Society who doesn't know the name of his zanpakuto, and thus can't achieve bankai or even shikai, meaning he can't use all those fancy tricks and abilities that his fellow captains can. But who needs fancy tricks when you're a fountain of raw, unlimited power, to the point that you need to use [[Power Limiters]] just to have a fair fight with anyone?
** Ichigo was also like this {{spoiler|before he started getting all those hollow abilities.}} His zanpakuto may not be able to turn into a multi-segmented sword with teeth, or millions of tiny razor-sharp blades, or a giant bug-thing that breathes poison gas, but not only does he have raw, unlimited power just like Kenpachi, but his bankai is just a simple, normal-sized sword...that's able to take all that power (most of which was just being wasted anyway) and focus it until he achieves [[Lightning Bruiser]] status.
** Speaking
* ''[[Undefeated Bahamut Chronicle]]'': To Lisesharte, the best Drag-Rides ([[Mini-Mecha]] shaped like dragons) are this trope. She uses [[This Is a Drill|drills]] as an example. {{spoiler|Later on she pulls off a [[Big Damn Heroes]] moment using one.}}
