* In ''[[Neon Genesis Evangelion]]'', Yui is pretty much Sealed [[Mama Bear]] In A [[Humongous Mecha]]. Bottom line: you try to off her son - you're dead, period. She definitely fits this trope - she's not evil because she only kills what she's supposed to kill yet she's not good either because when she grabs the wheel... [[Gorn]] Ensues.
* Yami Yugi from [[Yu-Gi-Oh!]]! is totally badass. Bonus points for being sealed in an [[Amulet of Concentrated Awesome]].
* In ''[[The Legend of Maian]],'' Felicia Rand Philistine is this. Originally portrayed as [[Sealed Evil in a Can]], {{spoiler|recent events have suggested she had noble intentions. She is by no means good though.}} Interestingly enough, Fenix Maian is the actual can, while Felicia is the badass. {{spoiler|Well, the sealed on. Fenix is [[Took a Level
* Inner Moka from ''[[Rosario + Vampire]]'' is [[Badass]] enough to [[Curb Stomp Battle|curb stomp]] all but the best monsters out there. She spends the bulk of her time sealed in a [[Creepy Cool Crosses|rosary]] while Outer Moka takes care of daily life. Interestingly, {{spoiler|Inner Moka is the original personality and Outer Moka is artificial, so she's actually sealed ''in her own body''!}}

The main difference between a dreadnaught and most other examples is that most Badasses don't ride the can they're sealed in into battle, while a Dreadnaught serves as a life support system for the mortally wounded Space Marine interred within.
*** This also applies to Chaos Dreadnoughts who, unlike their loyalist counterparts, see their entombment as torture, and are kept in constant pain. Thus when they are released on the battlefield they strike like a torrent of rage, for the promise of death.

* [[Sonic the Hedgehog|Shadow the Hedgehog,]] the world's [[Ultimate Lifeform]], was unleashed by Eggman in ''Sonic Adventure 2'', in a long line of [[Sealed Evil in a Can|things being]] [[Sealed Good in a Can|released]] from cans in that series. As soon as Shadow is released, he defeats a [[Giant Mook|giant mecha]] by himself.

** Except for marauder infantry. Only 23% of them have been accused of murder, and 47% of them have never even been incarcerated.
*** Firebats on the other hand is an entirely different story... Every single one of them is an [[Ax Crazy|unrepentant]] [[Playing with Fire|pyromaniac]] welded to two heavy-duty flamethrowers and let loose on the battlefield, the result is predictably... [[Kill It with Fire|crispy]].
