== Anime and Manga ==
* Negi Springfield of ''[[Mahou Sensei Negima]]'' seems to fit this trope pretty well, much to the pain of his friends and family. Sure, he's only ten years old but that doesn't mean few injuries will stop him. Impale him on a stone spear? He'll just use it to bash you in the head with. Cut off his right arm? In his own words "I still have my left!". And you manage to leave a massive hole in his gut, doing so much damage to the rest of the body that it [[Tears of Blood|causes blood to pour from his eye sockets]] and [[Blood From the Mouth|causes him to vomit a pint or two of blood]]? Eh, you're still not gonna win.
* In ''[[Mobile Suit Gundam 0083: Stardust Memory]]'', Lt Burning uses his cane to shatter the cast on his leg so he can be a [[Big Damn Heroes|Big Damn Hero]] and save the Gundam in battle.
* ''[[Naruto]]'' does this a lot. Rock Lee, too, from the same show.
** Naruto is justified in doing it most of the time though, considering he heals from injuries far faster then anyone else, and the doctors are holding him back just to be safe, which is usually just an excuse to have him [[Put Onon a Bus]] for a few episodes.
** Used twice by Hinata in the Three-Tails filler arc. The first time, she gets injured fighting Nurari, and after she tells Kakashi she can still move, Kakashi says the mission is still in effect. Two episodes later, after surviving being crystallized by [[Filler Villain|Guren]], Sakura suggests that she shouldn't force herself just yet, and has her stay behind until she recovers.
** Special credit has to go to Onoki, who gets hit by {{spoiler|a fucking ''meteor''}} and still insists on fighting.
* Ryu in the original ''[[Mobile Suit Gundam]]''.
* Likewise Lockon Stratos in ''[[Mobile Suit Gundam 00]]'' refuses treatment which will take three weeks instead going out to fight despite being blind in his right eye, {{spoiler|it gets him killed}}.
* Scar from ''[[Fullmetal Alchemist]]'' absolutely ''refuses'' to stay in the refugee camp for Ishbalans, despite the fact that he might not even be able to walk properly at any one point he's there. In his defense, he's also trying to protect them from being punished for harboring him.
** Also, Edward Elric insists on automail surgery so that he can join the state military only ''days'' after losing two of his limbs.
Line 33:
* ''[[Bleach]]'' has this a lot, especially with, Ichigo, who just never seems to sit still when injured.
** Ganju's fist says "No, no you can't."
* Nanoha and Vita's injuries at the end of ''[[Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha StrikersStrikerS]]'' were revealed in [[All There in the Manual|supplementary materials]] to both be serious enough that the doctors told them to take things easy from now on and that they'll need to go through some rehabilitation, especially Nanoha, whose overuse of [[Deadly Upgrade|Blaster System]] had taken enough of a toll on her that her [[Power Level|Magic Levels]] had gone down by 10%. Naturally, the both of them were the first ones to return to service on the aftermath of the incident, filling their schedules with many strenuous tasks like nothing happened.
** Also before the final battle of the third season, Zafira and Vice. Especially Zafira, who fights despite being covered in bandages, {{spoiler|managing to capture Otto}} with Shamal, finally turning the tide of the battle against the Numbers.
** And before either of these, in the second episode of ''[[Nanoha As|A's]]'', Raising Heart, badly damaged, assures Nanoha it can be fired. "It's alright."
Line 46:
* Toudou during ''[[Code Geass]]'''s finale insists this, but Chiba stops him.
** Actually, he was pushing past her to get to his mech when he suddenly collapsed from his injuries, proving her correct.
* In ''[[Death Note (Manga)|Death Note]]'', Soichiro Yagami sneaks out of his hospital room, where he was recovering from a (normal) heart attack in order to break into Sakura TV and recover the Second Kira's tapes. At one point, he claims he's never felt more alive.
** Incidentally, he 'broke in' by ''driving an armored truck through the front wall''. Because the second Kira was killing aybody she saw try to enter from her vantage point outside the building.
* Done somewhat humorously with Vegeta in ''[[Dragonball Z]]'' who always wants to fight, even death only slows him down slightly.
Line 53:
* In episode 49 of the first season of ''[[Beyblade]]'' Ray is directly attacked by Bryan's bit-beast Falborg's wind attacks. After winning the second match and tying the score, Ray blacks out. His teammates worry about him and try to talk him out of going back out there for the third match, but Ray doesn't listen. Ray is almost killed during the third match, but his bit-beast Driger saves him and Ray manages to win the battle.
* Cruely subverted AND played straight in ''[[Neon Genesis Evangelion]]'' in the battle with Asuka and the Mass Production Evas. While the Mass Production Evas get their limbs ripped off, get ripped in half, have spikes launched through their skulls, and have their brains bashed out, they still come back to life every single time. On the other hand, {{spoiler|Asuka gets impaled through the skull, then pinned to the ground, and then suffers as the MP Evas all feast upon her Eva's organs, while she suffers the same injuries as Unit-02. And yet, after being skewered, she still struggles to fight. Her dying words are literally "I'll kill you."}} This also counts as a [[Crowning Moment of Awesome]], debatably.
* Done nicely in ''[[Gintama (Manga)|Gintama]]'' in the Benizakura storyline. Otae is in charge of keeping the heavily injured Gintoki from returning to the fight against Benizakura. She breaks his sword and threatens even more bodily harm to him until he finally agrees to stay put. {{spoiler|As soon as her back is turned, he's off, but Otae knew that was coming too. Not only does she have all his clothes laid out for him to leave, she's left her umbrella for him to borrow as he heads out in the rain, with a note requesting its safe return.}}
* Tsuna from ''[[Katekyo Hitman Reborn]]'' essentially "powers up" based on this trope...as well as only being able to win because of it most of the time...in fact he {{spoiler|only won against Byakuran in the future arc in episode 203 because he has a habit of this.}} this is almost the basis of the "dying will" concept itself.
* Crow Hogan takes on this trope in the World Racing Grand Prix Arc of [[Yu-Gi-Oh! 5 Ds5D's]]. After his replacement team member Akiza also gets attacked, Crow decides to duel against the nasty Team Catastrophe that injured them both. {{spoiler|[[The Determinator|With a half-broken arm, he manages to beat an enemy duelist all while figuring out then dodging their insanely cheap trick that makes motorcycles crash.]]}}
* After being beaten into a coma in the twelfth episode of ''[[Tiger and Bunny]]'', {{spoiler|Kotetsu}} wakes up the next day and insists on joining in on the mission to take Sternbild back from Ouroboros, despite the debilitating pain he experiences from just trying to get out of the bed. While Blue Rose manages to talk him out of it, {{spoiler|he ends up doing it ''again'', this time to save Barnaby, after he gets it in his head that his [[Hour of Power|Hundred Power]] could probably work as a makeshift [[Healing Factor]]}}.
* Joe Asakura, in the last episodes of the first ''[[Science Ninja Team Gatchaman (Anime)|Science Ninja Team Gatchaman]]'' series: he suffers headaches, numbness in one hand, and is rattled by blinding flashes of light. He refuses to tell anyone what is happening to him, and then goes off to find Galactor headquarters. Once there, he gets bent, folded, spindled, and shot up -- even while killing goons. {{spoiler|He finally dies from his injuries -- but not before saying goodbye to his comrades.}}
* ''[[Inuyasha]]'': Even after getting stabbed, blown up, poisoned, [[Brought Down to Normal|turned human]] and/or smacked by his own signature attack, [[Inuyasha]] will not stay down. Nor can his friends make him.
** Likewise, his [[Handicapped Badass|one-armed]] brother will not let others protect him battle or move him off the battlefield even when that sole arm is ripped to shreds technically leaving him unable to fight.
Line 64:
 
== Film ==
* In an alternate ending of [[Walt Disney]]'s ''[[Robin Hood (Disney film)|Robin Hood]]'' film, Robin is in bed with an injury suffered rescuing Maid Marian from the sheriff. A rider is coming and Robin insists on dressing and getting up.
* Happens to the main character in the movie ''Click'', so he could tell his son that "family comes first" and make up for never being at home thanks to the fast-forward on the remote. He dies, but {{spoiler|It was [[All Just a Dream]]}}.
* The entire second half of ''[[The Wrestler]]'' is based on this trope.
* ''Best of the Best''. Eric Roberts gets his shoulder severely injured, and should on all normal accounts be taken out of the karate tournament, but persuades the coach to finish his match for the good of the team.
* Literal scene in [[Black Hawk Down]], but it takes some conditioning from officer in charge to have severely wounded soldier eek out "I'm still in the fight". [[Ironic Echo|Repeated]] in the aftermath scenes with the same soldier telling the same officer "Don't go back out there without me. I can still do my job". In the epitaph, we'll learn said soldier actually died from his wounds.
* [[The 13 th13th Warrior|Lo there do I see my father. Lo there do I see my mother and my sisters and my brothers...]]
* In ''[[Three Hundred300]]'', this seems to be more or less expected of the soldiers. Of course, [[This Is Sparta]].
{{quote| Leonidas: I trust [[Eye Scream|that scratch]] hasn't made you useless.<br />
Dilios: It's [[Eyepatch of Power|only an eye]], my lord. The gods saw fit to grace me [[Only a Flesh Wound|with a spare]]. }}
Line 81:
** Another ''[[Star Wars]]'' EU story has the ARC Trooper Alpha, pretty much the [[Badass]] among badasses of the clone troopers, get crippled from the waist down when General Grievous impales his spine on a pair of lightsabers. When Obi-Wan Kenobi calls for medics, Alpha instead insists that he just give him a blaster. After all, his arms and eyes are still fully functional, so he can still shoot.
* In [[Sandy Mitchell]]'s ''[[Ciaphas Cain]]'' novel ''Duty Calls'', Cain refuses to stay in bed longer than three days despite his concussion (and he does not have a [[Hard Head]]). Of course, he was afraid that the enemy were too close and he might die in his bed.
* In [[Dan Abnett]]'s ''[[GauntsGaunt's Ghosts]]'' novel ''Honour Guard'', Corbec and other injured Ghosts, order to evacuate, instead desert to join the Ghosts in their honour guard duties.
** In ''Ghostmaker'', when Dorden and other Ghosts were trying to protect injured soldiers in a field hospital, Culcis, one of the wounded men, led several of them out to help: they were capable of shooting, though not all of them could stand.
** In ''Only In Death'', Tona Criid, suffering a concussion, had to be argued with -- and finally given a flat order -- to get on the plane for evacuation.
** In ''Straight Silver'', Rawne and Barda leave their beds -- though frustration with ignorance had more to do with it than desire to fight.
* In the ''[[Discworld (Literature)|Discworld]] novels, Sam Vimes does this all the time.
* Merric from ''[[Tortall Universe|Lady Knight]]'':
{{quote| "You had to tie him to his horse to get him this far!" "But I'm ''really well'' tied."}}
* Urthstripe the badger in the ''[[Redwall]]'' novel ''Salamandastron''. In this case, he's delirious as well as severely injured. The hares tried to keep him down by tying him into bed. [[The Determinator|He gets up]] [[Unstoppable Rage|to fight anyway.]]
* Starting in about the third book and continuing from there, [[The Dresden Files (Literature)|Harry Dresden]] tends to be beat to hell and back before the final showdown, and heads into battle when in any other circumstances he'd be in too much pain to go on.
* Used now and again in the ''[[X Wing Series]]'', when pilots in their snubfighters are badly damaged and have to keep flying. Lara Notsil is fully aware that "No, I'm good to fly" is the pilot's "automatic response, whether Imperial or New Republic, whether truth or self-delusion".
* In [[Dan Abnett]]'s ''[[Warhammer 40000 (Tabletop Game)|Warhammer 40000]]'' ''[[Horus Heresy]]'' novel ''Legion'', Mu checks this with Soneka: should he really be up? He assures her that the medical papers were just to convince the authorities that his erratic behavior had been combat fatigue.
** In [[James Swallow]]'s ''The Flight of the Eisenstein'', after Garro loses his leg, he still hobbles into the fight, with help from another Death Guard, who tells him he's in no condition to fight.
{{quote| ''As long as a Death Guard draws breath, he's in a condition to fight!''}}
* In Lee Lightner's ''[[Warhammer 40000 (Tabletop Game)|Warhammer 40000]]'' [[Space Wolf]] novel ''Sons of Fenris'', when Jeremiah [[Bottled Heroic Resolve|revives]] his fellow Dark Angels, he asks Nathaniel how his wounds are; Nathaniel answers, "I can fight."
* This is the climax to ''[[Ivanhoe]]''. Nobody will fight for Rebecca {{spoiler|1=except for Brian DuBois-Guilbert; the Templars, knowing that, have tapped to be their champion against her}}, but Ivanhoe, still suffering from the side wound that has kept him unconscious for most of the book, shows up to defend her, still barely able to keep on his horse. In the book, {{spoiler|1=he wins by virtue of DuBois Guilbert's guilty conscience-induced heart attack}}, while the movies play it much more straight.
* In [[James Swallow]]'s ''[[Warhammer 40000 (Tabletop Game)|Warhammer 40000]]'' novel ''Faith & Fire'', Isabel is dragging one leg, but in answer to "Can you fight?" says "Need you ask?"
** Made all the more impressive because this is a well trained normal rather then a super soldier.
* Eowyn tries to pull this in [[JRRJ. R. R. Tolkien (Creator)|JRR Tolkien]]'s ''[[The Lord of the Rings (Literature)|The Lord of the Rings]]''. They drag in Faramir to stop her; he points out that the army has gone too far and she can't catch up, and if the battle does come to them, she would be better able to fight if she rested now.
* Much of the cast of the ''[[Harry Potter]]'' series have done this at some point or another... Harry especially, obviously, because the kid was practically marked at birth. A humorous example from HBP was when Harry had been arguing with an annoying Quidditch teammate (Cormac McClaggen) during a match, who was trying to show another player how to do their job during a match. When Harry tells Cormac to get back to his own position, Cormac accidentally knocks Harry unconscious and, for the umpteenth time, he finds himself in a hospital bed, remarking furiously to Madame Pomfrey,
{{quote| "I don't want to stay in bed. I want to find McClaggen and kill him."<br />
"I'm afraid that would be considered overexertion." }}
* ''Every single character'' in the [[Wheel of Time]] has pulled this at least once. Every main male character except for Mat has pulled this at least five times. The record probably goes to Rand, especially as he has another character with an empathic bond with him nearby at almost all times shocked at how he endures the pain of his unhealed wounds.
* [[Honor Harrington (Literature)|Honor Harrington]] at the end of ''Flag In Exile''. Honor has: been called a whore for most of the book, {{spoiler|blamed herself for an industrial accident which killed a group of schoolchildren, learned that the "accident" was sabotage, had her armoured shuttle shot down so thoroughly it blew up, and saved from a point-blank assassination when ''Grayson's spiritual leader'' [[Heroic Sacrifice|threw himself in front of her]], and generally [[Hamlet|suffered the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune.]] She finally gets to the Council Chamber, battered, bruised, limping and exhausted, presents her evidence, and names the man who's been orchestrating all of this...who promptly claims a traditional form of justice and demands to face the Protector's Champion in trial by sword combat. And guess who that is? The Protector, seeing that she's in no shape to fight, begins to back off from his proclamation (which will undermine his authority for all time), but she cuts him off:}}
{{quote| '''Honor''': Your Grace, I have only one question. {{spoiler|Do you wish this man [[Crowning Moment/Honor Harrington|crippled, or dead?]]}}}}
** She goes on to design a strategy to allow the Grayson navy to fight {{spoiler|and win a space battle in which they were outnumbered about three to one without getting any sleep for the day or so after the swordfight as that would hurt morale.}} After coming up with the battle plan, she delegates the actual execution to her flag captain. He hadn't been blown up recently, had had a good night's sleep, and generally in better condition to judge when the best time to start each stage of the plan was.
Line 111:
 
== Live Action TV ==
* ''[[Star Trek: theThe Original Series (TV)|Star Trek the Original Series]]''.
** "The Deadly Years". While suffering from a disease that causes accelerated aging, Captain Kirk wants to go to the bridge and take command to fight the Romulans even though he's in no condition to do so.
* ''[[Lost (TV)|Lost]]'', "There's No Place Like Home, Part 1": Jack rushes off after the mercenaries' helicopter hours after an appendectomy.
* Janeway in ''[[Star Trek: Voyager (TV)|Star Trek Voyager]]'' does this several times, as does Tuvok (he continues performing his duties after being blinded by a Krenim torpedo in "Year of Hell").
* Tony on ''[[NCIS (TV)|NCIS]]'' returns to work a week early after having the plague, looking peaky and pale. He still manages to outrun an exploding car, albeit not as quickly as he might have if healthy. Of course, all is forgotten during the next episode (the third season premiere) even though the timeline has only advanced a few hours.
* ''[[Band of Brothers]]'' has a few instances of soldiers returning to the frontline before being released as fit by the military hospital, to the extent that one soldier gets scorned by Easy Company for ''not'' returning to the field as soon as he was able.
** This is a common phenomenon with soldiers in any war. They would rather be with their troops and fight than leave them. Whether their doctors allow them to do so is another matter.
Line 121:
* ''[[Power Rangers]],'' every time anyone has ''ever'' gotten hurt, it seems.
* ''[[Kamen Rider Dragon Knight]]'': Chris, frequently. {{spoiler|It didn't work so well for him}}.
* Reid's drug problem in Season Two of ''[[Criminal Minds (TV)|Criminal Minds]]'' is the result of a lot of factors coming together, but this trope is definitely one of them. Being kidnapped and tortured left him traumatized and in no shape to spend all day looking at photos of bloody crime scenes. However, by the very next episode, he's back at work doing exactly that, and overreacting to the point of paranoia at any tiny suggestion on his coworker's parts that he might not be ready to do so yet. Instead of taking the time to cope with his issues in a healthy way, he starts using Dilaudid, which, if it doesn't make his trauma go away, at least lets him forget about it long enough to kind-of-sort-of do his job.
* Sheppard in ''[[Stargate Atlantis (TV)|Stargate Atlantis]]'' is crushed when a booby-trapped building collapses and a metal rod pierces his side. When he is saved Dr. Keller tells him he needs a transfusion and surgery immediately, but he insists on a quick patch job so he can lead the mission to rescue Teyla. Ridiculously, both the doctor and the expedition leader decide to allow this.
* Booth on ''[[Bones (TV)|Bones]]'' in the episode "Two Bodies in the Lab". He got blown up by a bomb, was barely able to stay on his feet, and still signed himself out of the hospital to go with Hodgins, then insisted on going in to save Brennan.
 
 
Line 140:
* After a vicious fight with [[The Dragon|Rance]] in Target Earth, Rance's Assault Suit is badly damaged, and Rance himself is bloodied and burned. Rex (the hero), says "It's over," to which Rance shouts, "Not while I live! I can still--" [[Killed Mid-Sentence|Cue Assault Suit explosion.]]
* In ''Call of Duty 4: [[Modern Warfare]]'', you rescue an informant named Nikolai from a brutal imprisonment. Nikolai is handed a weapon and quotes this trope word-for-word.
* Villainous example: In ''[[Xenogears (Video Game)|Xenogears]]'', Ramsus tries for this after getting the crap beaten out of him by {{spoiler|Fei's alter ego, Id}}, only for his partner Miang to fly him out of the battle. Technically, it was only his [[Humongous Mecha|Gear]] that was damaged, not him, but [[Curb Stomp Battle|the way that battle was going]], he still wouldn't have lasted much longer.
{{quote| '''Ramsus:''' Don't do anything rash, Miang! [[What an Idiot!|I still have one arm left!]]}}
* Subverted in ''[[Inazuma Eleven]] 2'', a large number of Raimon soccer club members gets hurt, sent to hospital, and is never used again during the main game. {{spoiler|Someoka}} is injured during one point, and the first thing Coach Hitomiko does is sacking him off the team.
* In ''[[Dwarf Fortress (Video Game)|Dwarf Fortress]]'', Dwarves have been known to keep fighting until they pass out from pain. Then again, so does everything else.
** Inverted on occasion, too--sometimes, cuts or fevers can send them to the hospital, unable to fight, work, spar, or [[Too Dumb to Live|feed themselves]] until the chief medical dwarf checks them over and fixes their boo-boo if possible. This may be justified, however; small cuts often lead to deadly infections, and fevers may come from forgotten beast or similar syndromes which may also cause such effects as massive bleeding or [[Body Horror|necrosis of the skin]] or Armok ''knows'' what.
* In ''[[Mass Effect 2]]'''s "Overlord" DLC, there's a minor example of this: a [[Mook|security mech]] tries to shoot [[Badass|Shepard]] and gets shot. Acting like nothing happened, it tries to shoot him again and gets its arm blown off. Undeterred, it tries to shoot him with its remaining arm, and gets ''that'' shot off. At that point, it [[Screw This, I'm Outta Here|gives up and runs.]]
Line 150:
 
== Visual Novels ==
* Shiki from ''[[Tsukihime]]'' and Shirou from ''[[Fate/stay Stay Nightnight]]'' are both grade-A perpetrators of this trope, refusing to stay in bed even when crippled, sick, recovering (or suffering) from [[Demonic Possession]], energy drained or recently come [[Back From the Dead]]. Also in the Fate route, Saber gives this line when severe exhaustion leaves her unable to even arm herself. She tries to pull a [[Heroic Sacrifice]], distracting Berserker while Shirou and Tohsaka escape, but ''that'' little honor goes to Archer.
 
 
== Webcomics ==
* [[Authority Equals Asskicking|Baron Wulfenbach]] of ''[[Girl Genius (Webcomic)|Girl Genius]]'' constructs a [[Humongous Mecha]] so he could walk around without technically leaving his bed.
** And his son toughs out a bullet wound long enough to give the impression that he's [[Nigh Invulnerable]].
*** Twice. {{spoiler|''And'' wrestles down a [[Humongous Mecha]] after the second one.}}
** And then Tarvek convinces his [[Ninja Maid]] to drug him with enough [[Bottled Heroic Resolve|stimulants]] that he can escape from his hospital prison bed and charge into a maze of death traps. Of course, the drugs wear off pretty quickly after he goes for a rodeo ride on a [[Humongous Mecha|devil dog]], and he's in [[Heroic RROD|worse shape than ever]].
* Agent Ben Preston from ''[[A Miracle of Science]]'' gets shot in the shoulder and hospitalized. Both his boss and his doctor insist that he needs rest. Preston then successfully talks his boss into letting him resume the case.
* Antimony from ''[[Gunnerkrigg Court (Webcomic)|Gunnerkrigg Court]]'' gets a knock on the head, blacks out, and wakes up in the infirmary. She's told to stay in bed, but she sneaks off to find Reynardine.
* In ''[[The Beast Legion]]'' after [http://www.thebeastlegion.com/issue-05-page-28-unimpressed/ Xeus gets a thrashing from Ginta].
 
Line 171:
** Part of a [[Running Gag]]. [[It Makes Sense in Context]], suffice to say he was a skeleton a moment before.
* [[Exo Squad|Exosquad]] featured a battle between a human and "alien" fleet. The [[Jerkass]] captain of the human flagship, with his ship crippled, says, "If she can fly, she can fight!" He then performs a [[Heroic Sacrifice]], resulting in [[Alas, Poor Scrappy]].
* Suberted in a [[Teen Titans (Animationanimation)|Teen Titans]] episode. After Robin has his arm broken, back at the Tower, the Titans are prepared to force him to relax instead of going after the criminal, knowing full well his obsessive personality. So Robin...just goes and watches TV. Huh.
 
 
Line 188:
* And then there was [http://www.cracked.com/article_17019_5-real-life-soldiers-who-make-rambo-look-like-pussy.html this one guy from India]...
* [[wikipedia:Jack Cornwell|Jack Cornwell]], a sixteen-year-old sailor in World War One, fought in the Battle of Jutland aboard the HMS Chester. Even though huge pieces of steel shrapnel were embedded in his chest, he remained at his gun sight and waited for orders. He died two days later.
* Cervantes (the author of ''[[Don Quixote (Literature)|Don Quixote]]'') was in bed with a high fever when the Holy League's navy shipped out for the Battle of Lepanto, but insisted on coming along. He was wounded three times, including losing a hand.
* Gustavus II Adolphus, King of Sweden and one of the major players in the early [[Thirty Years War]] had a musket ball lodged in his neck that prevented him from wearing armour, since a cuirass pressing on the ball caused excruciating pain. He led cavalry charges wearing a [[Hell-Bent for Leather|leather jacket]] instead.
* Nusaybah bint Kaab was a female warrior who fought in the armies of the Prophet Muhammad in the early days of Islam's expansion. During the battle of Uhud in the 7th century, she was nearly killed defending Muhammad. Lying near death the day after the battle, she heard the Prophet call for reinforcements and got up to answer to call, at which point she keeled over from blood loss. She eventually recovered.
