Line 39:
* In the ''[[Pokémon (Anime)|Pokémon]]'' anime, there's one episode where a coastal city is [[Attack of the Fifty Foot Whatever|attacked by a giant Tentacruel]]. The place is flooded within seconds and several large buildings are destroyed, yet there's never any mention of injuries or deaths. That's to be expected, though, considering the show's place on the [[Sliding Scale of Idealism Versus Cynicism|Sliding Scale]].
* ''[[UFO Princess Valkyrie]]'' has a huge UFO crash-landing in the middle of a bathhouse, still filled with visitors, with exactly one casualty - which is [[First-Episode Resurrection|instantly rectified]]. Somewhat later, a destructive fight between a crazy [[Catgirl]] [[Girl With Psycho Weapon|With Psycho Weapons]] and a [[Kamehame Hadoken]]-throwing space-princess leaves several large chasms blasted through the entirety of the cityscape. Neither the potentially-astronomical casualties, nor the damage to the city, is mentioned again. But the catgirl apologized, so it's cool...
* ''[[Slayers]]'' usually avoids it - the very first episode
** Mostly,
* It's worth noting that virtually every single episode of ''[[The Big O (Anime)|The Big O]]'' simply ''begins'' with the eponymous robot exploding up from underground, taking streets, cars, skyscrapers, and one can only presume people along with it. And yet the chief of police is good friends with its pilot and never bitches him out for mass slaughter.
** {{spoiler|[[Hand Wave|Hand Waved]] when the [[Gainax Ending]] reveals that the entire two seasons were some sort of simulation or theatrical piece on a massive sound stage. There are lots of such headscratchers in real fiction too.}}
