Line 1:
{{trope}}
Sometimes the pilots [[Heroic BSOD|crash even harder]] than the mechas.
Line 103 ⟶ 104:
*** Shinn Asuka also gets one near the end of the series (although in his case it plays out more like the traditional [[Villainous Breakdown]]) for... well, no discernable reason. By the end of the [[Final Battle]] he is literally hallucinating and this close to landing a lethal blow on his own ally/girlfriend before Athrun forcibly stops him.
* A slow build over the course of five specific episodes leads to the main character of ''[[Ojamajo Doremi]]'', Doremi Harukaze, going into this in the series finale. {{spoiler|Her best friends for the past four years are either moving or going to a different school, so Doremi locks herself in the Maho-dou on the day of her elementary school graduation. It takes Hana-chan threatening to reveal her identity as a witch to force her out.}}
* ''[[Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann]]'''s Simon goes into a big one of these after {{spoiler|Kamina dies}}. However, when Simon [[He's Back|reboots]], he ''[[
* In ''[[Mobile Suit Gundam 00|Gundam 00]]'', [[Defrosting Ice Queen|Tieria Erde]] suffers a ([[Epileptic Trees|literal?]]) [[Heroic BSOD]] after {{spoiler|his partner and close friend Lockon Stratos is killed.}} And before that, {{spoiler|he had one when VEDA was hijacked and crashed, making him completely lose their connection.}}
** In the second season, poor {{spoiler|Louise Halevy}} has ''several'' of those in different degrees, {{spoiler|as a side effect of her [[Ill Girl|medical treatment]].}}
Line 145 ⟶ 146:
{{quote|'''Ikanov''': And to think that {{spoiler|that same elder brother died in front of his very eyes, so that he would be saved…}} What God or Buddha would permit that…?! That’s something that could easily crumble one, nay, two minds!!! }}
*** The latest chapters {{spoiler|[[Flash Back|tell the story]] of Luffy, Ace, and [[Death by Origin Story|surrogate brother Sabo]] and how they came become the men they were, with Ace's promise that they would survive, and Luffy's vow to get stronger and become the Pirate King.}} By the end, {{spoiler|everything that has happened has caused Luffy's dream to come crashing down on him. For a series about chasing your dreams, this is heartbreaking.}}
▲** [[media:Luffy-King of the Heroic BSOD.gif|Is he already the King of the Heroic BSOD trope?]]
** While his status as a hero is questionable, a recent manga chapter shows that, {{spoiler|Squad seems to go into one after realizing how thoroughly the Marines had manipulated him into stabbing Whitebeard.}}
** A variation, Perona's ''Horo Horo no Mi'' Devil Fruit power can cause this in a victim artificially via her Negative Hollows. A victim is drained of his morale and self-esteem, feeling worthless. It is possible to resist this power, however, as Usopp did, in which case [[Hoist By Her Own Petard| it was turned back on Perona]].
Line 276:
** Domon himself goes through a couple when {{spoiler|Rain leaves him as the result of her BSOD and becomes the core life unit of the Devil Gundam}}.
** Out of the other Shuffle Aliance members, only {{spoiler|Argo Gulskii}} did NOT go through an Heroic BSOD after {{spoiler|being forcibly infected with DG Cells ''and'' being [[Brainwashed and Crazy]]}}. The other three showed their mental and emotional damage in different ways: {{spoiler|Chibodee drank himself into a stupor twice in a row, George acted snippy and rude to others while mentally reviving a tragedy from his past, and Sai Saici acted nonchalant at first but heavily hallucinated that Argo was the Devil Gundam when they were face to face.}}
* ''[[Inuyasha]]'': Just as [[Aloof Big Brother|Sesshoumaru's]] finally getting used to the idea that [[
** Kagome has some of her own, and the worst of them is the one that comes when {{spoiler|she represses her feelings after Kikyou's "death" in the Shichinintai arc and tells Inuyasha to go see if she's alive or not... and then [[Creepy Child|Arago]] comes and subjects her to a very cruel [[Hannibal Lecture]] about the [[Love Triangle]] as a whole.}}
* Yomi in ''[[
* ''[[Irresponsible Captain Tylor]]'': You wouldn't think happy-go-lucky Tylor would be the type to suffer from one, but
* Kurita in ''[[Eyeshield 21]]'' lost his will to fight after {{spoiler|Gaou breaks Hiruma's arm, sending him out of the game for a quarter and a halftime.}} He even loses the ability to understand Komusubi, signifying that he was no longer a strong man. It takes Sena and Komusubi risking their lives going against
** Komusubi at one point felt his lack of height had become a liability especially since the Posideon players and their cheerleaders are exceptionally taller than him. It takes some talk from Sena and the Ha-Ha Brothers (literally) kicking some sense to him to get him back on track.
** Monta got one when he realized he would be going against Honjou Taka, the son of his lifetime idol.
* This happened in the backstory for Tsukasa in ''Kuroneko Guardian''. She was {{spoiler|raped by a burglar which caused her to stop speaking and responding to people for some time}}. Even after recovering she's still [[The Stoic]].
