** From Naruto too, Bee has acquired [[Empathic Weapon|Samehada]] after his previous owner was killed.
* The titular character of ''[[Inuyasha]]'' wields the [[BFS|Tessaiga]], a sword whose ''explicit'' power is to absorb the essence (and thus, the abilities) of the enemies it slays. Enemy throws an impregnable barrier? Kill the enemy, and the Tessaiga can break through barriers. Enemy turns to diamond and flings spears of the material? Kill it, and Tessaiga can turn to diamond and shoot off diamond spears. Enemy can slice open a rift into the world of the dead? And so on and so forth.

Souls occur when MegaMan and whichever of his companions at the moment experience a strong moment of empathy; Crosses, however, occur when ''Lan'' earns access to various other NetNavis by successfully completing various tests posed by the respective Operators (each of which involves Lan assuming control of that particular Netnavi). Notably, each Test occurs as a "class", which suggests that Link Navis are not necessarily exclusive relationships.

There were originally only the distinctions of standard chips and Navi Chips (the latter being limited), but the third game introduced the Standard - Mega (Navi Chips and those of equivalent power) - Giga (basically [[Finishing Move]] chips and fifth-level Navi Chips) classification that would last on through [[Mega Man Star Force]]. Battle Chips will only appear if the enemy is taken out efficiently - the leftover data stagnates as time passes, and Standard and Navi Chips may change code or even power level, respectively. (Of course, for [[Gotta Catch Em All|collection purposes]], this may [[Do Well,
** In [[Mega Man ZX|ZX]] and ZX Advent, Grey and Ashe go the extra mile and completely copy the forms of bosses.
** The [[Mega Man Star Force|Star Force]] series has this in the form of Mega Cards that are gained from defeating bosses and regular enemies.
