Line 6:
* The very soul and fiber of ''[[Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann]]'' is woven with this sentiment. As one of the songs says: ''"Do the impossible, see the invisible! ROW ROW FIGHT DA POWAH!'' '''''[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=avRuZ4QLWek ROW ROW FIGHT DA POWAH!]"'''''
** The movie then '''takes the literal version of the trope and cranks it [[Up to Eleven]], with {{spoiler|Simon duking it out with the Anti-Spiral, after they had just battled in galaxy-sized mecha.}}
* The [[Enemy Without|berserked defense program of the Book of Darkness]] in ''[[Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha]]'', a [[Humongous Mecha|gigantic bio-mechanical monstrosity]] that had destroyed countless worlds in the past and is considered to be impossible to kill due to its reincarnation cycle, which lets it reform itself somewhere else whenever it dies. It went up against Nanoha's massively overpowered party, consisting of a mage that had merged with the cleansed Book of Darkness, the four guardians the Book of Darkness created to defend itself, and five other mages that are able to match said guardians in battle. All of them were throwing around [[Eleventh-Hour Superpower|Eleventh Hour Superpowers]]s, [[Finishing Move|Finishing Moves]]s, [[Super Mode|Super Modes]]s, and [[Wave Motion Gun|Wave Motion Guns]]s like there was no tomorrow, backed by a [[Cool Starship]] packing an even bigger [[Wave Motion Gun]], ''and'' [[Theme Music Power-Up|accompanied by Nana Mizuki's insert song for the season]]. The nigh-indestructible destroyer of countless worlds never even stood a chance.
** Not quite. Even though they did defeat it, it was only temporarily and it took {{spoiler|Reinforce sealing herself away for all eternity}} to finally put an end to it.
** It should be mentioned that they only beat the actually really Cthulu-esque "Darkness of the Book of Darkness". When Nanoha and Fate fought against Reinforce they didn't stand the slightest chance. She's made to be a powerful being that can destroy entire worlds and she does ''not'' disappoint.
