Line 19:
* ''[[Mai-HiME]]'' has a variation: Mai's HiME powers manifest for the first time in the first episode when she [[Die or Fly|involuntarily]] creates a shield of flame to protect herself and Mikoto, but she only receives her Element in the second episode and her Child in the third.
* ''[[Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha]]'': Similarly, while the main character first realizes her powers as a mage by activating [[Empathic Weapon|Raising Heart's]] [[Simple Staff|staff form]] and creating a full [[Deflector Shields|Barrier Jacket]] on the first episode, she only casts her first spell on the second episode, and unlocks her oft-used [[Small Girl, Big Gun|Shooting Mode]] on the third.
* ''[[Baccano!]]'' reveals its [[Immortality]] premise within the first third of the introductory episode when, after Firo's fingers are severed, the bloody digits slowly pick themselves off the ground and reattach to his hand. The effect is both unnerving and extremely cool.
* ''[[One Piece]]'': [[Rubber Man|Monkey D. Luffy]] ate his [[Superpower Lottery|Devil Fruit]] in the first chapter.
** There were two pilot chapters even before that which showed Luffy with his rubber powers.
