Remembered I Could Fly: Difference between revisions

* 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 lose—she still has food left, she's too weak from hunger to try the Fois Gras anymore, and Picolet is going for the last one—then she says, "Oh, yeah." and just eats the last bits of food herself.

* 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, but—here's where 'forgot I could fly' comes in—for some reason rather than pretending she hadn't, she footnoted his frustration with the reminder "why don't you just fly after him?"

** 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.
