** Just about ''anytime'' that [[Finishing Move|Baou Zakeruga]] is used.
* The doujin manga ''Nami S.O.S.'' is a Hentai parody of magical girl stories. It focuses on a team of super-powered heroines, but by far the most memorable character is the main girl's [[Badass Normal]] brother. In one issue, the girl he's hot for is attacked by a pair of winged tentacle demons and winds up being molested by the two of them in midair. The guy picks up a big pole from I-can't-remember-where and tries to ''pole vault'' over to her from the roof of a skyscraper. He falls short and looks to be about to fall to his death, but instead manages to ''grab some of the beast's dangling tentacles'' and pull him off her from the force of his own falling through the air. This leads to ''a bout of fisticuffs in free-fall'' that ends with the guy using the side of a nearby skyscraper to ''scrape the demon's skull apart''. Meanwhile, the girl polishes off the other beast and arrives just in time to pluck him out of the air and carry him to a safe landing. This being a hentai manga- well, let's just say it's good times for him next issue...
* Minoru finally [[Beware the Nice Ones|letting Akira know what he really thinks of her]] in ''[[
** Also, the dance number in the final episode.
** And don't forget Akira finally letting her inner professional shine through for just a little bit when singing ''Misoji Misaki'' in the karaoke box.

* Everything Kyuuzou does in ''[[Samurai
* In one chapter of ''[[Franken Fran]]'', Fran ends up getting her throat viciously slit open by a hitman hired by her client. Rather than die like any other person understandably would, she sits back up, with her head hanging off the back of her neck, pulls out her tools and gargles '''[[Catch Phrase|"BEGIN... OPER.. ATION"]]''' She then ''reattaches her own head'' with barely any repercussions aside from some uncoordinated eyes and lots and lots of blood.
* The middle of the Divine Design (Cards) Arc of ''[[
* Near the end of ''[[The Third:
** In the final episode, Honoka {{spoiler|wipes out an entire army with a single sword-stroke}}.
* In ''[[Yotsubato|Yotsuba&!]]'', [[Cool Big Sis]] next door Asagi is the best person at managing Yotsuba, no easy task, and her moment is {{spoiler|"Say goodbye, little assassin."}} Awesome.
** Miura gets her moment of awesome as well, in the procession for a local shrine's [[Festival Episode|festival]] -- so awesome, Yotsuba tries to imitate her.
** Yotsuba gets a moment in being [[Cheerful Child|so freaking cute]] that the denizens of [[Image Boards|4chan]] -- easily the most infamous and [[Squick|squick-filled]] place on the internet -- will [[Internet Backlash|flame anyone into eternity]] for posting [[Rule 34]] of her, something not even her predecessor [[Azumanga Daioh
* In ''[[Nana]]'', Yasu decking one of the [[Paparazzi]].
* Archer's "Unlimited Blade Works" from ''[[Fate/stay
* ''[[Mega Man NT Warrior]]'': Rock and Fireman are trapped in a giant cage of vines protected by pure evil. As the villain Plantman gloats, Fireman turns to Rockman and declares: "Rockman, trust what I say. There's nothing I can't burn... no, there's nothing ''we'' can't burn!" This leads to Rockman gaining the Soul Unison: Fire Soul and proceeding to launch a combination attack with Fireman that completely incinerates all of Plantman's defenses and the bastard himself.
** The 2 parter where <s>[[Dragon Booster|Kitt Wonn]]</s> [[Mega Man NT Warrior|Roll.EXE]] knocks the stuffing out of <s>[[Dragon Booster|Phistus]]</s> [[Mega Man NT Warrior|Mega Man.EXE]]
* In ''[[
* ''[[Pretty Sammy]]'' has Misao, for the first time ever, transforming into Pixy Misa with the use of a baton, along with the magic words, "Pixy Mutation! Magical Recall!".
** On the top of that, she gives a speech to Rumiya to encourage herself:
{{quote| '''Misao''': I'll be fine. I won't try to hide my weakness or jealousy anymore. I know I'm full of contradictions. But all things considered, I love myself and Misa. So I think I'll be fine. Please, Rumiya.}}
* Deedlit in ''[[Record of Lodoss War]]'': ''Chronicles of the Heroic Knight''. With a bit of assistance from Parn and Ashram, {{spoiler|she all but drowned the huge dragon Shooting Star in a pool of lava with her shamanistic magic}}. This all but took the [[Faux Action Girl|"faux"]] off of "faux [[Action Girl
* May Wong in ''[[Kaleido Star]]''. Two words. "DEEEEEEMONIC SPIRAAAAAAAAAL!"
* ''[[Princess Mononoke]]'': Ashitaka watches Sen's attack on Eboshi's people for a while, then finally has enough. He marches straight to where the two of them are fighting, effortlessly bending Ganza's sword on the way, then holds both Sen and Eboshi at bay as his cursed wound reveals itself to everyone. He proceeds to let everyone know just what will happen to them if they let this war continue.
Line 376:
** How has the climax of NEXT not been mentioned yet? Lina has been spending the entire season doing everything she can ''not'' to use the Giga Slave after finding out that making a single, tiny mistake in the casting of it would destroy the universe, so naturally Hellmaster Fibrizzo has been spending the entire season trying to force her to use the Giga Slave so that he can make it go out of control. At this point, he's easily withstood two simultaneous Dragon Slaves, one of which was amplified, and Lina's second strongest spell, the Ragna Blade. When Fibrizzo is about to kill Gourry right before her eyes, however, Lina finally cracks and uses the Giga Slave... and her wish to save Gourry winds up being so strong and pure that it amplifies the spell to the point of actually summoning the Lord of Nightmares ''into Lina's body'' instead of just calling on her power. The Lord Of Nightmares proceeds to mop the floor with Fibrizzo with pretty much zero effort. After finding out that Lina has been absorbed into the chaos that makes up the Lord of Nightmares, Gourry chases her ''into another dimension'', giving up the Sword of Light and pleading for Lina to come back to him, and just when it looks like she's gone for good the Lord of Nightmares recreates Lina right in Gourry's arms, and the two of them share their first kiss. They both return to reality holding each other and with no memory of what happened.
* ''F-Zero Falcon Densetsu'': The [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FFtw7qW7Vcw Falcon PUUUUNNNNNNCH!] scene from the final episode.
* In the ''[[
* ''[[Mnemosyne]]'''s Rin probably had a lot of these along the way but her ''true'' moment of awesomeness happens when she confronts Apos for the final time in the last episode. {{spoiler|Having returned from the depths of Yggdrassil, she simply refuses to be affected by Apos' angelic presence (immortals like her are overcome with uncontrollable sexual desire when angels are around) but instead, grows ''her own wings'' and makes Apos shiver with paralyzing desire for her, easily kicking his butt. Not only is that scene an awesome turning of the tables but her wings look sooo much prettier than angels'. And that she is nude at that point and hot as ever, doesn't help ''any''.}}
** Am [[Shay Guy|I]] the only one who's actually ''disturbed'' reading that? At best, such a tactic would strike me as a [[Shoot the Dog]] moment. The last two sentences somehow make it creepier, like they're saying "beauty makes right."
