Line 27:
* ''[[Mahou Sensei Negima]]'' - Mundus Magicus turns into one of these once the heroes arrive there - especially for those who were previously just [[Muggles]], though the main cast remains leagues more powerful then the average thug in that world.
* ''[[Wind: A Breath
* ''[[Tokyo Underground]]'' features an entire underground world of psychics.
* After the second season, ''[[Lyrical Nanoha|Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha]]'' moves away from a certain [[Insignificant Little Blue Planet]] and [[Stay with the Aliens|goes to live in Mid-Childa]] where everyone is a mage like her. All the grunts in the military are equipped with staves to help in casting spells, the Air Force doesn't use planes since [[Flight|they can fly on their own]], detectives can [[Mind Probe]] criminals to retrieve information, librarians can perform search engine-like scans on thousands of shelves worth of books, [[Emergency Services]] are protected with [[Deflector Shields]] that keep away heat and smoke and can cast the same shield on victims trapped in a burning building, doctors are equipped with the latest in medical technology and [[Healing Hands]], and students don't need to whisper to each other since they can just use [[Telepathy]].
* In ''[[A Certain Magical Index]]'' and its spin-offs, nearly all of the students from Academy City are undergoing esper training. So it is reasonable to expect unnamed street bullies to have some sort of super power. As one teacher put it, a student not having esper powers is something out of the ordinary and worth researching. The [[Superpower Lottery]] is very much in effect through (powers are ranked on a scale of 1 to 5), and

** The light novels present it a bit differently with Gourry being a bit smarter than he gives out...But double-subverted, in that his memory is
* The hidden ninja villages in [[Naruto]] are a mix of this and [[Everybody Was Kung-Fu Fighting]], because they all have [[Charles Atlas Superpower]]. Even the youngest children are in training to use [[Ki Attacks]].
** Actually sort of subverted: even among the ninja villages only a relatively small number of the population ever go all the way through the academy to even become low-ranking genin. Though it does seems anyone could potentially use [[Mana|chakra]] for they various things ninja do.
