* In ''[[Fullmetal Alchemist (manga)|Fullmetal Alchemist]]'' (anime and manga), [[Cursed with Awesome|although not really a bad thing]], Ed sees "truth" after attempting to perform a human transmutation on his mother at the very beginning of the series and, along with learning a good deal of alchemic knowledge, is able to perform alchemy without a circle, something only those who have also seen the "truth" can do. In the manga only, {{spoiler|Al also ends up seeing the "truth" and gains this ability as well.}}

** That happens in the anime too, he just forgot for most of the series. After remembering, he could transmute without a circle, but refrains from doing any transmutation for other reasons.

** Similarly, Capacity Down is a sound that shuts down esper powers. And it ''is'' quite [[Hell Is That Noise|headache-inducing]] to those who have sensitive ears.

* One episode of ''[[Science Ninja Team Gatchaman]]'' has [[The Man Behind the Man]] of Galactor compose "Murder Music #1", a rock song that can drive people insane and even shatter buildings when played from the [[Monster of the Week|Mecha Of The Week]].

* ''[[Violinist of Hameln]]'' ''runs'' almost entirely on this trope, flavored with [[Rule of Cool]], [[Refuge in Audacity]] and copious amounts of crack. But what else can you say for a series whose entire premise is that the heroes use magical music to beat evil up (and to beat each other up, they're rather dysfunctional)...?
