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
** 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.
Line 29:
* In ''[[Code Geass]] R2'' episode 21, Lelouch uses his [[Evil Eye]] on {{spoiler|the "collective unconsciousness", a gigantic mass of souls without physical bodies, which his father Charles says has been referred to in the past as God}}.
** Though the [[Word of God|guide]] states that the people/collective unconsciousness already wanted a tomorrow implying that Charles' plan was doomed from the start and Lelouch actually didn't do anything until Zero Requiem which was the will of the collective unconsciousness. If you rewatch the scene you can clearly see that Lelouch asks it in the form of a request, and even uses please.
* In the first two seasons of ''[[Futari wa Pretty Cure|Pretty Cure]]'' the Dark King, the very embodiment of ultimate annihilation, whose goal was to destroy everything and reduce the universe and all dimensions to a state of eternal void. The only ones standing in its way were a [[Determinator|spunky]], [[Hot
* In ''[[Princess Mononoke]]'', Lady Eboshi manages to pull this off with a rifle. Unfortunately, killing said loving nature god only let out an infinitely more pissed off ''destructive'' god. [[Nice Job Breaking It, Hero|Nice job releasing Cthulhu, Eboshi.]]
{{quote| {{spoiler|'''Eboshi'''}}: Now watch closely, everyone. I'm going to show you how to kill a god. A god of life and death. The trick is not to fear him.}}
Line 75:
** [[Superpower Lottery|The super-powered villain Accelerator]] eventually gets his name added to the list of superpowered beings Touma has punched in the face.
** Touma's first fight involved him punching out Innocentius, a powerful fire demon composed of 3000-degree flames. From here, he had nowhere to go but up.
* In ''[[Bleach]]'' {{spoiler|Ichigo appears in the nick of time with a "final" power up and with little more than raw strength, grabs Aizen by the face and drags him miles away from Karakura to deliver a [[No
* ''[[My Balls]]'' takes the [[Refuge in Audacity]] route, as usual: did you just defeat {{spoiler|Beelzebub}} with [[It Makes Sense in Context|armpit sex]]?
* ''[[Baka Test]]'': {{spoiler|Yoshii}} defeats {{spoiler|Ironman, a foe long thought to be unbeatable}}.
