* ''[[Star Wars]]'' fics involving [httphttps://deliciousweb.archive.org/web/20190929011821/https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/dmail/ebmgnpkbhncfpnoeihkmkhmccbgagghc/Lanta/star_wars+timetravel time travel] are surprisingly common, and a high percentage of them involve various characters being sent back to [[Set Right What Once Went Wrong]] after dying.
* ''Tons'' of ''[[Neon Genesis Evangelion]]'' fanfics use this trope. Usually Shinji is the one who goes back from the time of Third Impact and goes on to prevent it without alerting NERV's higher-ups (e.g. Misato, Ritsuko and his father).
** There is one fic where Shinji discovers that not only the other pilots are parts of the rewinds too (humorously shown when he and Rei abuse the rewinds for training while Asuka ends up face first in a door every time a rewind occurs), he can rewind at any time by ''killing himself''. It eventually desensitizes him to the prospect of death so much that even Asuka is freaked out.
