Heroic Safe Mode: Difference between revisions

* ''[[Zone of the Enders]]''. Dolores is generally a [[The Ditz|ditzy]] [[Humongous Mecha]], but danger reverts her back to her factory settings as an amoral, ruthlessly efficient killing machine. Jehuty is the opposite: She starts out with factory settings when [[Kid Hero|Leo]] [[Falling Into the Cockpit|falls into the cockpit]], but gains personality as the story progresses.

* Ranma of ''[[Ranma ½|Ranma One Half]]'' starts acting like a cat when overwhelmed by his [[Weaksauce Weakness|fear of cats]]. While this is usually [[Played for Laughs]], it is also dangerous because he retains his old strength but [[Cats Are Mean|doesn't care about pulling his punches anymore]].

* {{spoiler|Akemi Homura}} of ''[[Puella Magi Madoka Magica]]'' goes into a long-lasting one of these after seeing {{spoiler|all her friends die horribly and/or destroy the world, [[Groundhog Day Loop|repeatedly]]. She only acts emotionless because she doesn't want a [[Heroic BSOD]] to get in the way of protecting Madoka from [[Faust|Kyubey]].}}
