Line 150:
* The Evil Queen / Regina from ''[[Once Upon a Time (TV series)|Once Upon a Time]]'' is the [[Manipulative Bastard]] version of this. She's not very smart, and completely [[Genre Blind]]. But she has tools to make up for that—in the fairy tale realm her army and her magic, in the real world she can cower everyone with her status as mayor. With her hate driving her, she uses these to plow through any obstacle in her path.
* ''[[Kamen Rider Fourze]]'' protagonist Gentaro Kisaragi starts off like this, having no fighting skills when he [[Jumped At the Call|straps on the belt]] and starts fighting [[Monster of the Week|Zodiarts]]. This puts him at a disadvantage when he comes up against more skilled opponents, like the Unicorn Zodiarts (a member of the school's fencing club) and [[Second Rider|Kamen Rider Meteor]] (a practitioner of [[Bruce Lee|Jeet Kun Do]]). Eventually he [[Took a Level in Badass|takes a level in badass]] thanks to some training from his homeroom teacher Haruka Uesugi, who's a talented kickboxer.
* The title character of the South Korean series ''[[Strong Girl Bong-soon]]'' has literally [[Super Strength|superhuman strength]], from a divine gift granted to all the women in her family. She is so worried about losing it by violating the strictures on its use, though, that she does virtually nothing with it, let alone train in its use.
