* Hayate for [[Heroes-R-Us|Riot Force Six]] in ''[[Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha

* In the manga and second anime of ''[[Fullmetal Alchemist (manga)|Fullmetal Alchemist]]'', against [[Big Bad|Father]], the role of Big Good is split between Colonel Roy Mustang and {{spoiler|Van Hohenheim}}, the two filling the roles of [[Supporting Leader]] and [[The Messiah]] respectively. While {{spoiler|Hohenheim}} is the only one that can match the Big Bad's sheer power, Mustang's efforts [[The Strategist|coordinating the Amestris military]] can't be ignored.
** At the same time [[Manipulative Bastard|Lieutenant General Grumman]] and [[Four-Star Badass|Major General Armstrong]].
* Pope Benedict in ''[[The Legend of Koizumi]]'', who leads the world's [[What Do You Mean It's Not Awesome?|Mahjong-based]] defense against the [[Stupid Jetpack Hitler|Fourth]] [[Those Wacky Nazis|Reich]], who live on the moon and shoot meteors at major cities. [[It's Personal]] for him for some reason, probably due to his having grown up in the third one.

* Optimus Prime in just about any ''[[Transformers]]'' adaptation.
** Later parts of the classic series had the role pass to Rodimus Prime and Fortress Maximus. The Headmasters (or rather, their heads) were this for the last season of Gen 1.
** Ultra Magnus served this role in ''[[Transformers Animated]]'', while Optimus was re-envisioned as [[The Hero|a younger, rookie hero]].
*** Of course, Prime is ''every so slightly'' outranked by [[God|Primus]].
