== Anime & Manga ==

* Aisha Clan Clan from ''[[Outlaw Star]]'' gets demoted in her introductory episode for letting the heroes get away, and is promptly dropped into the position of [[Butt Monkey]] for the next ten episodes as she has to hitchhike her way across the galaxy to track them down. She does, however, manage to upgrade herself to [[The Big Guy]] of the show's [[Five-Man Band]] when she sneaks on their ship and proves herself in battle.

* At the beginning of the movie ''Bella'', we see the main character as a famous up-and-coming soccer player driving with his manager a few years ago. He is then shown in the present day working as a chef at his brother's restaurant. Through flashbacks throughout the movie, we find out that {{spoiler|when he was driving, he accidentally hit and killed a small girl, causing him to stop playing soccer.}}

* Stephen Chow's character in ''God of Cookery''. When he starts to regain his former glory halfway through the film, he begins to revert to his haughty attitude, until tragedy forces him to reevaluate his priorities.
