Line 12:
* In ''[[Ranma ½]]'', most of the martial artists seem to have some level of greater-than-human strength, implicitly ''because'' of the fact [[Supernatural Martial Arts|they practice martial arts]]. Akane Tendo, [[Overshadowed by Awesome|generally considered the least skilled of the group]], can carry a refrigerator up and down a flight of stairs in her arms, single-handed and at a jogging pace. Mousse, who generally prefers fighting with weapons to bare hands, is capable of splitting a huge temple bell with one punch. Ranma Saotome himself is generally considered [[Weak but Skilled]] because he prefers agility and technique to brute force, as opposed to [[The Rival|Ryoga Hibiki]], who [[Does Not Know His Own Strength|tends to break things around him without meaning to]], but is still capable of feats like lifting multiple tons, smashing through solid rock and wood with his bare hands, bending steel and leaping multiple stories.
* In ''[[Naruto]]'', we have a lot of examples.
** First and foremost is [[Lady of War]] and [[Combat Medic]] Tsunade, whose trademark ability is her monstrous super strength. She can shatter an entire city block and the walls around it with a single kick, or by just slamming her finger into the ground she could create an entire chasm which she used to trip up Naruto. [[Complete Monster|Orochimaru]] acknowledged that her strength was one of the few things that could actually ''kill'' him if she was at full strength. Her best feat is wielding [[Attack of the 50-Foot Whatever|Gamabunta's Sword]] and slamming it down on Manda's jaws.
*** {{spoiler|She's even stronger than A, and can smash Susano'o on her own!}}
** The second example is Tsunade's student, Sakura Haruno. She can now shatter boulders, launch Naruto over 300 meters (over 1000 feet) away with a single punch, and break the highly defensive Hiruko puppet's defense with ease.
