Line 24:
** Like wise with even younger children in ''[[Bokurano]]''.
* ''[[Getter Robo]]'', at least in the original continuity.
* ''[[Prétear]]''. Granted, it's justified in the case of the Leafe
* ''[[Ronin Warriors]]'': It was so bad that in the first episode they almost lost due to what was basically a pissing contest, and they spent the rest of the season paying for it.
* The [[Nekketsu Saikyo Gosaurer|Eldo]][[Zettai Muteki Raijin-Oh|ran]] series does something like this, except that "teenagers" is replaced with "A class of elementary school kids".
Line 82:
** Also [[Lampshade Hanging|lampshaded]] as many secondary characters comment on their ages for about the first dozen episodes.
** At one point several other kids tried to join the team as well, but were ultimately encouraged to return to their homes for awhile.
* Played straight in the new ''[[Hot Wheels Battle Force 5]]'' animated series. When one of the six teens rather sensibly ask their holographic [[Obi Wan]] why they alone were chosen to save the world, she replies that each one brings "something different" to the team. Which one brings ''driving experience'' to a battle for the fate of the world that involves high-speed racing is never said.<ref>Though they ''do'' all have such skills. Given that Vert Wheeler suggested the recruitment of the rest of the initial team, he presumably explained this to the Obi-Wan offscreen.</ref>
* The [[Animesque]] ''[[Totally Spies]]''. Think [[X Meets Y|Power Rangers meets Buffy]].
* Explained as the reason why the Mother Planetoid adopted the ''[[Brats of the Lost Nebula]]'' and gave them the equipment they needed to battle the Shock forces, as the Planetoid's creator believed that only teenagers and their chaotic nature could outmaneuver the Shock's forces.
