Line 24:
* The Charas of ''[[Shugo Chara]]'' forget about and later remember their ability to fly in one early episode. Used to [[Rule of Scary|scare]] a character and [[Played for Laughs|amuse]] the audience.
* At one point in the manga version of ''[[Chrono Crusade]]'', a roof hanging over Joshua begins to collapse. Since Joshua is a human boy with demon's horns, he's [[With Great Power Comes Great Insanity|more than a little insane]], so his first reaction is just to stare at it blankly. But right before [[The Hero]] saves him, he mutters "Oh, that's right" and uses his powers to stop time to keep himself from getting crushed, right at the last second.
* A very simple, but amusing example in the [[Martial Arts and Crafts|Martial Arts Fine Dining]] arc of ''[[Ranma ½|Ranma 1/2]]'': throughout the training for the Parlay du Fois Gras, Ranma has been starving herself nearly to death. At the end of the final duel with Picolet Chardin, during which she has been using the technique to force-feed him (and the audience) to get rid of her food (the condition of winning), she has run out of options and is about to
* In ''[[Shinryaku! Ika Musume]]'', Ika Musume almost drowns and Goro rescues her. Eiko asks her why she can drown. Ika Musume suddenly remembers that she can breathe underwater. She later demonstrates by staying underwater long enough for everyone else to get bored and do other things.
* The ''writer'' of [[Yami no Matsuei]] after she inflicted this precise [[Plot Induced Stupidity]] on her hero at the end of the Queen Camelia arc. She had Muraki leaving the scene in a helicopter, which defeats her hero...who had the power to fly established very early. She clearly wishes she hadn't done that,
** This is especially painful because it comes shortly after Tsuzuki ''cracked bulletproof glass with his punch of sheer rage'' at the same guy who's now escaping for no good reason. He seriously takes [[Idiot Hero]] to new levels.
Line 96:
* On ''[[Bob and George]]'', Mega Man is working his way through a particularly hard level, not making much progress, and complaining about how much the ''jetpack'' he's wearing weighs. One [[Beat Panel]] later, he starts flying over the level, wondering how he could be so stupid.
** Not to mention when Megaman and Protoman are having trouble fighting the Yellow Demon in the first year, and the author points out that Megaman has beaten it several times before, so he shouldn't have a problem with it this time either. Megaman and Protoman proceed to rather messily destroy it.
** And when someone points out to George that he did not have to spend months in [[Unwilling Suspension]] with his
** In another case it's first invoked but then subverted. Megaman enters Dr. Wiley's base, but in the course of combat gets his limbs blown off. He desperately crawls on his ruined stumps to Wiley's room, where he finds the other heroes already there. They ask why he didn't use his teleporter. [[Heroic BSOD|He almost completely loses it,]] but then quickly remembers that the teleporter's broken, that's why.
* In [[Dubious Company]], Walter forgets that he is a [[Winged Humanoid]] and so does everyone else. Possibly justified, as he mainly travels by airship and wouldn’t need to fly manually too often. He mainly seems to remember if [[Badass in Distress|Tiren is in danger]].
