Line 35:
** Most every ranger has some badassitude without their powers, showing them fight the [[Mook|mooks]] of the season is supposed to help the transition to the [[Super Sentai]] costume footage.
** [[Power Rangers RPM|Dr. K]] took down the current [[The Dragon|dragon]] by [[Musical Assassin|playing the violin]]. '''Twice'''.
** Honourable mentions go to [[The Ace|Takaoka Eiji]] from ''[[Go Go Sentai Boukenger]]''. Before he becomes [[Sixth Ranger|BoukenSilver]], he is so badass that in his human form he can beat up two Ashu demons, whom the five other Boukengers together, in their Ranger form, were unable to defeat.
** Also, Diana from ''[[Metal Heroes ]]'' famously never failed to OTK a foe with her [[Ass Kicks You| "Diana Hip Press"]] even when not morphed.
* Kung Lao, Siro, and Taja, the protagonists of ''[[Mortal Kombat]]: Conquest'', are all ordinary human beings who regularly face off against supernatural opponents who can shoot ice, throw fire, teleport, devour souls, re-animate the dead, etc. Not only do they stand toe to toe against these enemies but they usually win. In one episode Tsang Tsung, Kung Lao's primary rival, destroys an entire military encampment with his powers because he was just that pissed. Had he thought of doing that when he faced Kung Lao in ''Mortal Kombat'', Earth Realm would have been doomed before the series even began.
** When Quan Chi and Kung Lao first fought, Quan Chi attempted to use his sorcery but was immediately stopped by Raiden in the name of "a fair fight."
