* This happens to almost every character in ''[[Ayashi no Ceres]]'' whose ten'nyo powers are awakened, aside from the heroine and a few who get killed in other ways before their powers can kill them. It seems like they live longer the stronger their powers are, but actually ''using'' said powers seems to shorten their lifespan considerably.
* As incomplete [[Dhampyr]], the Schiff in ''[[Blood Plus]]'' need the blood of a vampire queen to stabilize, otherwise they [[Body to Jewel|turn to crystal]]. Yes, ''crystal.'' The ailment is called the Thorn.
* Some of the Contractors of ''[[Darker Thanthan Black]]'' fall under this. People whose 'Renumeration' is irreversible can only use them a limited number of times. Most notably, this includes the shape-shifter who grows older every time she uses her power, eventually dying from old age because of it, and {{spoiler|Amber, who could reverse or stop time}}, but [[Merlin Sickness|became younger]] every time she used it, eventually [[Ret-Gone|fading from existence altogether]].
** Shion in the second season is typically in a wheelchair due to his remuneration. {{spoiler|He eventually dies from using his power to copy the entire ''planet''.}}
* Tsukune, in ''[[Rosario + Vampire]]'', erodes a little bit of his ''soul'' every time he uses his superpowers.
