* Though much younger than most, Nanjiroh Echizen from ''[[The Prince of Tennis]]'' fits quite well.
* Joseph Joestar in Part 3 of ''[[JoJo's Bizarre Adventure]]''. It's worth noting that he looks quite a bit like Sean Connery in his later years, and Connery tends to play [[Retired Badass]] character quite a bit.
* Cologne from ''[[Ranma ½|[[Ranma ½]]'' is a quintessential example of the trope. She has been shown to be ''the'' most formidable martial artist in the series, with abilities far surpassing anything the main characters can do (and quite possibly above Happosai's level.) Yet, she's perfectly content running the Cat Cafe and letting the weirdness erupt around her, occasionally providing nuggets of information and only rarely being an active participant herself.
* {{spoiler|Margrave Jeremiah Gottwald}} becomes one of this after the ''[[Code Geass]]'' [[Grand Finale]]. {{spoiler|(Prosperous [[Brick Joke|orange farm]] and Anya as his partner and/or adoptive daughter included)}}.
* Maria from ''[[Mai-Otome]]'' is a retired Otome who works as an administrator and [[Stern Teacher]] at Garderobe Academy, temporarily un-retiring when it comes time to take back her school near the end of the main series.
