* In ''[[Dragon Ball GT]]'', Goku becomes blind when Eis Shenron claws his eyes; he regains his sight later on.
* In ''[[Himitsu no Akko-chan (Anime)|Himitsu no Akko-chan]]'' the titular heroine, in the deaf variant of his trope, upon meeting a [[Long -Lost Uncle Aesop|new deaf kid at her school]], uses [[Literal Genie|her magic mirror]] [[Be Careful What You Wish For|wish herself deaf and mute]], thus empathizing better with the kid.
