* If you don't gain a profound sense of respect and awe for Aziraphale after reading the ''[[Good Omens (Literature)|Good Omens]]'' fanfic ''[http://community.livejournal.com/lower_tadfield/428364.html Be Ye Therefore Merciful]'', you aren't entirely human. Standing between Death and your 6000-year-old demon friend, preventing the first from getting to the latter by sheer willpower alone? And then persuading Death to overlook your friend because of the giant bureaucratic headache you'll cause for him if he decides to take you first or charge you with protecting the Enemy? ''That's'' the ultimatest sign of true friendship (love?) if there ever was one.
** Definitely love. "''[[Shout-Out|And who could say?]] [[The Lord of the Rings|Beyond the circles of the world, there might indeed be more than memory, even for creatures not designed to die]]''" is straight out of ''The Tale of Aragorn and Arwen''.
** Aziraphale gets another moment of awesome at the climax of ''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3547876/1/When_Summoning_Please_Watch_The_Wording When Summoning, Please Watch The Wording]''. Long story short, some wannabe Satanists have crossed the [[Moral Event Horizon]] in truly nasty fashion and then mock Zirah for being the "pathetic lackey of a dead god". At which point Zirah [[Beware the Nice Ones|shows them exactly how "pathetic" good can be]]:
Line 117:
{{quote| Fear was something else. Fear was something uniquely, terribly ''human'', an immovable part of the psyche. And Crowley was the Serpent of Eden. The first demon humanity ever met. The only reason they ''had'' primal fears was because he'd ''put'' them there.}}
* [http://www.eyrie-productions.com/ Eyrie Productions] is a site full of fanfics that shine with these.
* I'm surprised ''[[Fairly English Story (Fanfic)|Fairly English Story]]'' isn't here. Episode 72 is where it kicks into overdrive.
** Hell, he even faced {{spoiler|the Hermit Arcana when he turned into the Chou Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann!!}}
* ''[[Shinji and Warhammer 40 K (Fanfic)|Shinji and Warhammer 40 K]]'' is perhaps the fanfiction king of this trope, with every single chapter containing at least one and every single character getting their own moments to shine. Shinji? Walking awesome factory. Rei? Never, ever cross her, ever. Asuka? Three words: {{spoiler|'''GIGA! DRILL! BREEEAAAKEEEERR!'''}} Kaworu? Everything that Shinji is, but on the opposing side. Misato, Ritsuko, Gendo? There's a reason they are still in charge after everything going FUBAR on a constant basis. Maya becomes a [[Amazon Brigade|Sister of Battle]]. Mana becomes a Commisar with her own personal Dreadnought. Hikari becomes an Inquisitor, with Stormtrooper Suzuhara as her retainer. There is even the original characters, including-but-not-limited-to a military genius that almost led China to world domination, and a [[Badass Normal|regular solider]] with collossal titanium balls that has survived a [[Zombie Apocalypse]] and being absorbed by an [[Eldritch Abomination]] and is far from finished. Pick a character, pick a chapter, pick a ''page'', and this trope is almost certainly there. Enjoy.
Line 130:
** Chapter 2.2. "THE EMPEROR PROTECTS!" This troper happened to own the ''[[Dawn of War]]'' soundtrack and was listening to [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6LWGnkCYprU the Space Marines' theme] when he read that part, which combined with the [[Tear Jerker|narrative]] made him shed [[Manly Tears]].
** In order to provide some context and clarification as to exactly ''how'' awesome this story is, the very first Crowning Moment of Awesome, the one that all successive Awesome Moments exceed by increasing magnitudes, is when eight-year-old Shinji has his Warboss figurine stolen by three larger boys, and he proceeds to attempt to ''beat the living crap out of them'', and ''wins'', despite being nothing but a big bruise by the end of it. The boys are so impressed by his sheer balls that from then on they refer to him only as "Da' Boss".
* This Troper sees Charles Belphin's ''Shinji and Warhammer 40k'' and raises you Academia Nut's ''[[Thousand Shinji (Fanfic)|Thousand Shinji]]''!
** The "Shinji Suicide Special" against Shamsel that actually makes it afraid of him.
** Two NERV grunts finish off Ramiel by putting a TOW missile into its exposed core.
Line 138:
** Nearly beat by the MP EVA Units, Asuka {{spoiler|makes Unit 02 go [[Eldritch Abomination|Bloodthirster]] and rips through eight of them before going down, noting while doing so that [[Normally I Would Be Dead Now|she should have been dead twice over]]. Yes, Unit 02 went [[One-Winged Angel]]}}.
** The culmination of {{spoiler|the 40k gods' [[Gambit Roulette]]}} has to be seen to be believed.
* How can we ignore ''[[The Open Door (Fanfic)|The Open Door]]''?
** Practically everything Lars does.
*** His best moment by far isn't any of the later stereotypically badass accomplishments. It's in [http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4320933/31/The_Open_Door Chapter 31], when he listens to Keiichi's account of his life. He says, before showering him with praise, what every fan of AMG has been thinking:
Line 145:
**** [[Crowning Moment of Heartwarming|And he does]].
*** This is followed by Lars giving Skuld a much needed [["The Reason You Suck" Speech]]. Again, nothing many of us in the AMG fandom haven't been thinking'...
** The Ghost Riders. It seems [[Ah! My Goddess (Manga)|Skuld]] took ''10'' [[Took a Level In Badass|levels in badass]].
** The ''Stiletto'' {{spoiler|blowing up two [[Battlestar Galactica|Resurrection Ships]] with a single shot}}. After taking city-killer nukes without shields or damage.
** {{spoiler|People of Nesme, I present to you [[This Is My Boomstick|the Kalashnikov!]]}}
Line 176:
** She tops this one in ch. 38 (at least in a teaser) when {{spoiler|her various personality splits come to life to help her fight the Angel Iruel.}}
* The amazing, albeit unfinished ''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/456898/1/Human_Saiyajin A Human Saiyajin]'' gives Ranma a brilliant one when he {{spoiler|comes amazingly close to beating Imperfect Cell. It gets underlined when Cell flat out tells Trunks that for all their powers, none of the Z crew were as much a danger to him as Ranma. Even after becoming Perfect Cell, Ranma gives him a good fight}} Then he and Vegeta spend a year in the Hyperbaric Time Chamber {{spoiler|and Ranma learns to master the power of the Nekoken}}
* [[The Unity Saga (Fanfic)|The Unity Saga]], a massive ''[[Star Wars]]''/''[[Star Trek (Franchise)|Star Trek]]'' crossover, has so, so many.
** Picard's "The colors must not be struck" reply to Palpatine's demand for the Federation's surrender.
** Thrawn being revealed as {{spoiler|the advisor of the Borg.}}
Line 182:
** Seven of Nine {{spoiler|taking down Darth Whind}} and any and all scenes of her in {{spoiler|[[Mama Bear]]}} mode. "Resistance is futile" indeed.
** Sebastian defeating Ben despite {{spoiler|getting both his arms cut off}}. And then {{spoiler|refusing to join the Dark Side and sparing his life, defying everything fate said would happen}}.
** Chapter 48 of part six could be considered one for the author, as all of a sudden {{spoiler|we enter Crisis Crossover mode, with the characters rapidly moving through the worlds of ''[[Halo]]'', ''[[Hellraiser (Film)|Hellraiser]]'', ''[[Wing Commander (Videovideo Gamegame)|Wing Commander]]'', ''[[Night of the Living Dead]]'', ''[[War of the Worlds]]'', the [[Marvel]] Universe, ''[[Transformers]]'', ''[[The Lord of the Rings]]'', The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, ''[[Alien]]'', and ''[[Battlestar Galactica]]''}}...and it all feels ''completely natural''.
** Janeway becomes quite the {{spoiler|Magnificent Bitch}} after {{spoiler|becoming the Sith Lord the Oracle}}. Her fight with Ben Skywalker is definitely the high point.
* The Doctor gets one in the ''[[Doctor Who]]''/''[[Firefly]]'' cross-over [http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3486070/1/A_Life_Less_Extraordinary A Life Less Extraordinary´] where he is pushed one inch too far:
{{quote| {{spoiler|"Yes, I think war is a fool's game. Yes, I believe life - all life - is precious. But tell me something, Vharaj - did you ever listen to my ''enemies''' tales of me? If you did, it's obvious you weren't paying attention. The Daleks do not have emotion, Vharaj. They don't know fear. But do you know what they called me? ''Ka Faraq Gatri''. It means 'Destroyer of Worlds'. I am the Bringer of Darkness, Vharaj. The Oncoming Storm. I've watched worlds and galaxies fall, and rise, and fall again. I fought the Vampires at the dawn of Creation, and I may yet witness the end of the Universe. I brought about the destruction of my own race, the deaths of my children, my grandchildren, my siblings, my friends, all in the name of peace, to save this Universe. So you tell me, Vharaj: ''what do you think I am capable of?''"}}}}
* A crowning moment of awesome for the author, who managed to fit well over a hundred 'Emergency!' episode titles into the text of [http://www.fanfiction.net/s/7087792/1/Mystery_at_the_Ridfell_Swoop_Carnival this ] Doctor Who fanfic.
* The ''[[Star Trek (Franchise)|Star Trek]]''/''[[Babylon 5]]'' story [http://www.fanfiction.net/s/1944628/1/A_Thin_Veneer A Thin Veneer] has what almost seems like a Crowning Month of Awesome for Starfleet Captain Acaltha and a group of Klingon ships as their quite-possibly-deranged crews pin a Minbari strikeforce to the wall with a series of more and more deranged dirty tricks, including {{spoiler|decoy Klingon 'ships', using weapons that were obsolete for decades to nasty effect, resonating the Minbari's hulls to overload their communications with Klingon opera and annoyingly cheerful J-Pop, and in the end, giving them the planet... that was abandoned before the Federation/Klingon task force ever showed up.}}
* The first novel of ''Dumbledore's Army and the Year of Darkness'' is, essentially, one long Crowning Moment for Neville Longbottom.
** [[Heterosexual Life Partners]] and resident [[Badass Bookworm|Badass Bookworms]] Michael Corner and Terry Boot have many throughout the novel. In fact, as soon as one (or both) of them make an appearance in the novel, you know that something is going to happen. And it's going to be awesome. {{spoiler|Pity that neither of them [[Kill'Em All|survived]] the final battle}}.
Line 203:
**** ... ''[[Unreliable Narrator|Maaaybe]]''.
* In Burger Becky's ''Ranma 1/2/Sailor Moon/Terminator'' crossover fic''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/979911/1/Sailor_Ranko_Tunnel_Vision Tunnel Vision],'' there is a truly great [[Crowning Moment of Awesome]] when {{spoiler|Ryoga}} takes down Skynet. Actually, creating a readable story from that mashup, let alone the tour de force that is ''Tunnel Vision'', is a ''CMoA'' for the author herself.
* Speaking of authorical Crowning Moments of Awesome, the entire series of [[Titan Legends (Fanfic)|Titan Legends]] seems to serve as a CMoA for those who write it. Especially the endings of some of the more heated arcs.
** There are plenty of character CMoAs, though. Like when {{spoiler|The OC Savior stabs himself through the heart with a magic sword in order to activate its true power and banish Trigon back to hell.}}
** The canon characters get them too. In one story, after defeating a crazed Knight Templar, Beast Boy {{spoiler|who is a catholic, as in the comics, tells the religious fanatic that he's only going to hear four words when he meets God: "I don't know you."}}
* In the [[Ben 10: Ultimate Alien]]/DC Universe Crossover [http://www.fanfiction.net/s/6772374/1/Lost_Ones "Lost Ones"] Vilgax hires {{spoiler|Slade}} to kill Ben, he decides to go after Gwen [[For the Evulz]] and she fights him on an even playing field, even though she gets the crap beat out of her. She counters his [[Hannibal Lecture]] about her guilt for killing the Forever Knights who murdered {{spoiler|Kevin}}, culminating in an [[Actor Allusion]] with the words, [[Teen Titans (Animationanimation)|"Shut up! Just shut up and leave me alone! I’m not some sad little girl you can control,]] you [[Manipulative Bastard]]!". Shortly after she gives {{spoiler|Slade}} an [[Eye Scream]] with a pen through his empty right eye socket, and that was after she kneecapped him with a golf club. Considering the fact that Gwen and Terra are both played by [[Ashley Johnson]], it's just so much more awesome.
* [http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3925241/ The Ultimate Ace] just for the fact that it's ''Ace Combat'', written [[Real Life]]-style ([[Lampshade Hanging|lampshading]] the difference thus: Mobius One "hadn't been responsible for the final destruction of Stonehenge though. That was a common misconception. Nothing short of a B-1 or B-2 had that much firepower"), and it actually ''works''.
* [[The Land Before Time]] fan fics having a CMOA? ''Hell'' yes!
** [http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2151472/1/Land_Before_Time_War_of_the_Worlds Land Before Time: War of the Worlds] has a few CMOAs. The most memorable involved an ''amphibious assault'' [http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2151472/9/Land_Before_Time_War_of_the_Worlds combined with Littlefoot, Ali and Shorty parachuting] into an enemy held island for a commando raid.
** [http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4044080/1/Land_Before_Time_Twilight_Valley Land Before Time: Twilight Valley] also has some CMOAs. One of which was [http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4044080/12/Land_Before_Time_Twilight_Valley Ducky's mother beating the crap out of a stone knife wielding Hadrosaur] with [[Dual-Wielding|twin sticks]].
* [[When Worlds Collide (Fanficfanfic)|This troper would like to think]] [[Danny Phantom|Sam Manson's]] disembodied consciousness leading Charles Xavier and the [[X -Men]] to almost certain doom against an army of various [[Face Heel Turn|Dannys-turned-evil]] led by an [[Reality Warper|omnipotent]] [[Omnicidal Maniac|Dark Danny]], and [[Did You Just Punch Out Cthulhu?|proceeding to win anyways]], and then return Danny from death by [[Power of Love|sheer force of love]] counts, no matter [[Old Shame|how hideous his writing was at the time.]]
* The ''Wordverse'' is a giant crossover fanfic on the [http://www.atomicthinktank.com/viewtopic.php?t=22367 The Atomic Think Tank] boards. The first story's final fight is John Preston (''[[Equilibrium]]'') and ''[[Batman]]'' vs ''[[V for Vendetta|V]]'' vs {{spoiler|the League of Shadows and Ras Al-Gul}}. And that's the initial story, it gets better later on.
* Naruto gets quite a few in S'tar'kan's epic series [http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2731239/1/Team_8 Team 8]. This troper's favorite is his battle with Neji, where he {{spoiler|uses the Kyuubi's chakra to blow open his closed tenketsu points and beat Neji black and blue in taijutsu.}}
Line 237:
* "[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3665921/1/Black_Flames_Dance_In_The_Wind_Rise_of_Naruto Black Flames Dance in the Wind: Rise of Naruto]". The whole story is filled with Crowning Moments Of Awesome and Crowning Moments Of Funny.
** Basically, all of Chapter 25 is a [[Crowning Moment of Awesome]]. Naruto {{spoiler|fights his mother and destroys several city blocks in the process while all available Chuunin and Jounin are maintaining a barrier so the two don't destroy the entire village.}}
* "[[Roku Naruto (Fanfic)|Roku Naruto]]". Chapter 13 gets a Crowning moment of awesome for the conclusion of the first fight against Zabuza. {{spoiler|Naruto and his clones threw several giant kunai filled with 900 kilos of rubhidium into the lake Zabuza is standing on. Zabuza later swore never to fight Naruto over water.}}
* Nigh everything written by [http://www.fanfiction.net/u/1308758/lord_of_the_land_of_fire lord of the land of fire]. While I can't endorse the sex scenes, he manages to make some very awesome scenes that readers often fail to fully appreciate the Awesomeness of. "A Few Angry Words" contains a paralel to [[The Bible (Literature)|Revelation Chapter 19 (Yes, that's the Second Coming of Jesus)]], while "The True Monster" contains a rather thorough paralel to World War II! Just when you think this guy has written himself into a corner, he comes out with something even more awesome as a resolution.
* Edward Elric gets one in ''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2929916/1/Invert Invert]'', a ''[[Fullmetal Alchemist]]''/''[[Harry Potter]]'' crossover. Bound by magic and being mindraped by Voldemort, Ed breaks Voldemort's concentration by calling up an image of the Gate of Truth, causing it to manifest for a few moments before fading out. In the distraction, Ed breaks Voldemort's grip on him and ''kicks him in the balls'' for good measure.
* [[Harry Potter (Franchise)/Fanfic Recs|Sluagh]], the sequel to the above mentioned "Dumbledore's Army..." has more Crowning Moments of Awesome than the original Harry Potter series combined. Seamus Finnigan, in particular, has become a serious [[Anti-Hero]], as well as [[Took a Level In Badass|Taken A Level In Badass]] to a whole new degree. For anyone who was disappointed by the Big Bad of the original series being taken down with an Expelliarmus, {{spoiler|this time the - much nastier, IMHO - bad is taken out in a last-ditch wager where the fate of the world rests on a knife fight to the death. "You want to live, I just want you to die." Made of Win.}}
Line 248:
*** And ''then'', it's even more brutally inverted when the [[Flying Brick]] decides to try a [[Badass Boast]]: 'I just want to hear three words from you two. 'We give up.' Quinn Morgendorffer, who is the resident [[Badass Adorable]] of the Legionnaires (and shows that [[Lightning Can Do Anything]]) kicks up her [[Power Levels]] to WAAAAAAY insane levels and becomes a walking [[BFG]] that vaporizes her in one shot as she does her ''own'' [[Badass Boast]]: 'You get ''one''. '' 'Bang'.''
** [[Badass Lolita]] Sandi Griffin (who [[Took a Level In Badass]] during the course of the series and is actually now the team's ''resident'' [[Badass]] - though Tiffany Blum-Deckler, while seeming to compete for the [[Badass]] title, is more of a [[Heroic Sociopath]]) gets ''two''. First, when facing off against the other teams best fighter - a girl who's also a ''ninja'' - [[Reality Ensues]] when, instead of fighting her, she simply triplicates and shoots her in the face three times - each of her three bodies fires. Later, when surrounded by four of the most powerful and dangerous members of the other team, the ninja says to her, 'Don't you know that when you're surrounded by four people like us, it means that you should give up right then and there?' Her response - just before detonating her weapon (thereby blowing up herself, her adversaries and a ''BIG'' chunk of the mall they're fighting in), is '' 'Don't you know that when you hear the sound of my zipper unzipping, '''it means that you can suck my-!''' ' ''
** Original character David Allen Farrington, who's sporting some serious [[Psychic Powers]] (like Daria Morgendorffer herself, but his are turned [[Up to Eleven]] because he also has interactive powers like telekinesis - plus, he's a walking [[BFG]]), gets a couple himself. First, When he and Daria are having a tag-team bout of [[A God Am I]] by both tapping into cosmic forces, he defeats her by giving her a kiss - causing the cosmic power to withdraw from her instantly in a literal case of a [[Slap Slap Kiss]]. Then, when the rest of the Legionnaires come after him, he gets a ''little bit'' [[Drunk Onon the Dark Side]] (although some would say that it's more a ''literal'' case of [[This Is Your Brain Onon Evil]]) and starts cleaning house - starting with Quinn, who he tells, [[This Is the Part Where|'' 'This is the part where you go 'Ow'.' '']] Trust me when I say that [[It Got Worse|it gets worse]] until he's talked back down by [[The Power of Friendship]].
** Even though the entire battle happens in [[Cyberspace]], and nobody really got hurt, doesn't make it all any less awesome.
* In the [[Daria]] fanfic 'Emancipation', Daria gets one when she goes to buy her sister a chicken dinner, and a guy attempts to mug her right in front of the restaurant. Before anyone inside can do anything - not to mention the mugger - Daria's [[Damsel Fight-and-Flight Response]] totally fails her, instead making her momentarily [[Ax Crazy]] as she takes her Doc Martens to each of his knees ''and then kicks him in the face... leaving a perfect print of her boot's sole on his forehead.''
* In ''Neon Genesis Evangelion: Redemption'' by Chris & Alex Voutsis, Rei Ayanami, piloting a Unit-00' with only ten minutes of battery power, is forced to fight alone against the USAF-operated Unit-04' (codenamed MARI) when Shinji and Asuka are incapacitated. Normally, this would be impressive though not quite a Crowning Moment of Awesome. What kicks it over the top? The USAF has upgraded Unit-04's Dummy Plug and can remotely pilot the Eva themselves, meaning that, unlike the Angels who just blast things at random, Unit-04 is ''smart''. Worse, it's armed with a jet pack, an S2 engine, a laser rifle, and stealth armor -- all of which it just used to destroy three military bases in France, steal eight other Evas for the US, and take on the UN. The situation looks so bad, even Misato thinks they're all probably screwed. After all, how can you fight an intelligent enemy that's just going to circle around above, taking out your support network (because it knows everything about you from spies in NERV), and you can't even paint it on radar? Rei's answer? {{spoiler|Link with the Dummy Plug clone's mind to locate its position and then use her positron rifle to destroy its jet pack -- without even bothering to turn on her targeting computer. Then engage in a bloody, knock-down drag-out fist fight that levels half of Tokyo-3, goes down the Eva elevator shafts, into NERV itself, and ends with Rei beating Unit-04 to death in a berserker rage just before it destroys Unit-01 (and a Shinji trapped inside) even after Unit-00 is crippled and has taken a full gun clip to its head.}}
* Post's gigantic ''[[Teen Titans (Animationanimation)|Teen Titans]]'' fic, [http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4778437/1/These_Black_Eyes_A_Re_Post_Ing These Black Eyes] is pretty much comprised of CMOA but my favorite is his OC Noir, who has at this point been {{spoiler|kicked out of the Titans after Slade framed him as his Third Apprentice and had been marked with a microchip which Slade could activate and easily kill him at any time, going in to save the Titan's asses. When Slade tries to activate the chip, Noir shows how he got rid of it: by slicing off his own arm. He then proceesed to kill the bastard and save his friends. Hell Yeah.}}
** Don't forget chapter 249 {{spoiler|Dagger's forces are pursuing Robin and Noir, who end up unintentionally leading them into a ambush by the US Army, who were warned in advance by Lex Luthor, and were waiting for Dagger's men to attack.}}
* [http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3258280/1/ Soldier of Spira] has far too many to count, but several events come to mind. First, [[Exactly What It Says Onon the Tin|Operation Ratcatcher]] in its entirety, just for the build up and how Auron was written (Whose portrayal in itself is a [[Crowning Moment of Awesome]] for the writer; few can claim to write an [[Badass|Auron]] who surpasses the original). Second, Starfall in its entirety, for Auron ''and'' Rikku. Third? Auron more or less holds the entire world at ransom just by making a promise. Everyone, and I do mean everyone, in Spira and beyond knows not to goad/enrage/bother Auron. If he makes a promise, then no matter how impossible it seems, [[Magnificent Bastard|he]] [[Determinator|will]] [[Implacable Man|keep]] [[One-Man Army|it]].
** Here's the absolutely epic speech Auron makes, in its entirety:
{{quote| '''Auron:''' Braska? Can you hear me? Yevon? Fayth? Lords of the Living and the Dead? Are you listening? Rikku will not die today. Rikku will not die today. Rikku will not die tomorrow. Rikku will not die in Zanarkand. Listen to me. Hear me all of you. All of your plans and your devices and wars, she has no part of them. She is not here because of you, to help you or to stop you. She is only here because she loves her cousin. Do you even understand such a simple reason? So Rikku does not die today. Rikku does not die tomorrow. Rikku does not die in Zanarkand at all and if she does '''then there is a new side in your forever wars''' and a '''new player''' and {{smallcaps| then I '''promise''' you that at the end of everything, at the end of it all '''no one will be standing.'''}}}}
* ''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4821971/1/Edward_meets_Sherlock_Holmes Sherlock Holmes defeating Edward Cullen.]'' Without any special powers. It just proved that [[Sherlock Holmes]] is a [[Badass Normal]]. Edward Cullen, the Vampire from ''[[Twilight (Literaturenovel)|Twilight]]''. Getting his ass kicked by Sherlock Holmes. I can't stress that point enough.
* ''Harry Potter and the Nightmares of Futures Past,'' chapter 27. Lucius Malfoy has just lost his house-elf Dobby and is pissed at Harry because of it. He spins towards Harry, ready to curse him with his wand...and stops. "Because an inch from the end of his nose was the end of Harry's wand, rock steady even with his arm at full extension. Five other wands were out as well, as a handful of children silently threatened to hex him and his son if they made another move." There are several others throughout the series, but that one always stands out to me.
* So, ''so'' many moments in [[I'm a Marvel And ImI'm ADCa (Fanfic)DC|I'm A Marvel...And I'm A DC]], especially in the After Hours/Happy Hour series. Let's just start with a recent one: "[[Berserk Button|You mess with Dafoe, you gots to go!]]"
* There are a few in the ''[[Pokémon]]'' fanfic [http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2987606/1/Tales_Of_Flame Tales of Flame] but the two that come to mind are:
** When Grovyle, the resident [[Battle Butler]], gets into a fencing duel with a Scyther Mook and channels Leaf Blade through a broomstick. And wins. Then later he gets a motorcycle and a real sword... all he's missing are the [[Cool Shades]]
Line 269:
** And again, in Laocoon's Children Book Two, where {{Spoiler|Tonks gives Tom Riddle a verbal whipping while standing in the Chamber of Secrets. Puny Half-Blood indeed.}}
* Most of "The Treasure of Lei Fong Wu" [http://www.fireflyfans.net/fulluserbluesunlist.asp?un=ScrewtheAlliance\], including the chapter devoted to Jayne annihilating a massive facility full of killer robots while wielding a heavy laser and an anti-tank rifle. Other moments include Wash using lasers to etch some graffiti on to the main antagonists ship.
* ''[[The Shocker Legit (Fanfic)|The Shocker: Legit]]'' is one great big long Crowning Moment for C-List supervillain Herman Shultz, aka the eponymous Shocker. Particularily memorable moments include:
** Herman's assessment of superhero banter from the viewpoint of a many-time loser supervillain.
** Herman defeating master assassin Bullseye via exploiting the weakness of his adamantium laced bones. And then when Bullseye refuses to stop laughing at him, utilizing his vibrating gauntlets to literally explode Bullseye's gentitals. Which seems immensely harsh, unless you know [[Complete Monster|what kind of a man Bullseye is]].
Line 285:
* ShadowDragon8685's series of ''[[Misfile]]'' fanfiction starts the process of [[Rescued From the Scrappy Heap|Rescuing Jenny the Second from the Scrappy Heap]] in [http://www.misfile.com/gallery/albums/userpics/10001/4_Concrete_Dreamscape_2_0.pdf Concrete Dreamscape], and by page 14 of [http://www.misfile.com/gallery/albums/userpics/10001/5_Electric_Dreams_2_0.pdf Electric Dreams], she has become just plain awesome, defusing another [[Alpha Bitch|superbitch]] by playing on the girl's latent homosexuality that she's [[Transparent Closet|trying to hide]]. (Note: Concrete Dreamscape and Electric Dreams are the fourth and fifth installments in the series. To read from the beginning, start [http://www.misfile.com/gallery/albums/userpics/10001/1_Rumisiel_s_Lament_2_0.pdf here.])
* This Troper found the end of "Chapter 23: For What Can Change" of ''[[Stray (Fanfic)|Stray]]'' really powerful, maybe her absolute favorite in any fanfic, because she was counting bullets and realized [[Set Right What Once Went Wrong|what Adamska was about to do]]. Amazing scene.
* In ''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2370566/1/ Elsewhen, and Elsewhere]'', a ''[[Warhammer 40000]]''/''[[Star Trek (Franchise)|Star Trek]]'' crossover, the ''Enterprise'' is captured by a group of Jem'Hadar. What the Jem'Hadar don't realize is that there's a couple squads of Space Marines on board. [[Hilarity Ensues]].
* [http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2600412/5/The_Hollow_Halloween This chapter] of this ''[[Fairly Oddparents]]'' fic, ''The Hollow Halloween'' by AmandaArtiste, presents one for Remy Buxaplenty, in which he shows us all that you simply should '''not''' try to brainwash Trixie Tang (and her friend) while he's around.
* The Master has many in the ''[[Doctor Who]]'' AU Fic ''[http://dwseason4.livejournal.com/4776.html Season Four]'', but his finest moment is in Chapter 13, {{spoiler|where he and the Doctor confront the Rani - who plans to establish a New Gallifrey for the currently human Time Lords in her possession at a psychiatric ward with the help of the Doctor and Master.}} The Master laughs hysterically at this and has this brilliant rebuttal:
{{quote| {{spoiler|"Oh, come ''on'', a Time Lord empire? Founded by the three of ''us''? There goes ''that'' policy of neutrality! No, wait, I've got it! I can make more black hole converters, you know. I can be Rassilon. Lucy, my dear, you get to be Omega, that would be fitting. Oh, Doctor, that leaves you as the Other. Yes, that sounds about right. I can rule for a thousand years of terror and the new Eye of Harmony will have all sorts of gadgets to keep it in check and they'll all be named after me! The Sash of the Master and the Key of the Master and the Seal of the Master. While we're at it we might as well have a bloody Trouser Press of the Master. Does that sound nice? Does that sound fun? Yes, come on, let's build a new Time Lord empire!"}}}}
* Akane in "Road Trip", one of John Biles' ''[[Mai Hi ME-HiME]] Future'' stories, when original character Mitsu is about to be tricked into summoning her Child so it can be killed:
{{quote| "I won't let you fight alone! This time, we're not going to be picked off one by one! NOT THIS TIME!" (...) "I won't lose again! THIS I DO SWEAR! We will defeat you and protect those we love! FOR I AM THE BATTLE PRINCESS OF THE WIND STORM! AND TOGETHER WE WILL DEFEAT YOU!"}}
** From the same series, "Afraid To Fly Part 2" gives us Shiho's moment of awesome. Her regret over how she used her Child in the original ''Mai-HiME'' has meant she's been unable to summon it ever since, but when someone else tries to summon her own Child against her, she reclaims control of it by confronting and overcoming her own past negative feelings.
Line 309:
''"Okay, moving faster."'' }}
* Ultra Sonic 007's remake of Digimon: Zero 2 final battle between BelialMyotismon and the DigiKnight. Read it [http://www.fanfiction.net/s/1584078/60/Zero_2_A_Revision\]: your head will explode from sheer awesomeness.
* In the [[So Bad It's Good|hilariously awful]] ''[[Death Note (Manga)|Death Note]]'' fic ''[[Light and Dark - The Adventures of Dark Yagami (Fanfic)|Light and Dark The Adventures of Dark Yagami]]'', Watari gives us the immortal line "ENOUGH OF YOUR RUDDY FLASHBACKERY YOU SODDING ARSES!" And "THAT FOOLISH WANKER DA'URQ IS IN NEW YORK AND HES KILLING SOME POOR SODS!" And a ton of other superbly ridiculous [[British English]] yellings.
* In the ''[[Harry Potter]]'' [[Fanfic]] [http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3384712/1/The_Lie_Ive_Lived "The Lie I've Lived"] {{spoiler|after the Dementor fight at the end of Book 3, Harry finds out that, when his dad died, he got all of his memories.}} After that discovery, Harry becomes steadily more badass as the story progresses.
** After the summer is over, Harry is, of course, put in the Triwizard tournament again. In one chapter, he {{spoiler|sneaks onto the Durmstrang ship, where they keep a Geist. Not a mischevious prankster like Peeves, but a full blown demonic entity formed from the fear and dark magical 'residue' of the school and the boat. He gets away from it, which angers the Geist. Later, the Geist chases him and Fleur into the Forest. Harry stays there and stalls the Geist, while Fleur goes to get help...From the HOGWARTS GHOSTS. What follows is a medieval style smackdown. The Bloody Baron with a CLAYMORE, the Fat Friar with a giant cudgel, Peeves (who is actually somewhat demonic), and to top it all off, Professor Binns, wailing on the Geist with his fists.}}
Line 315:
** Another task, a variation on the second in the original, sees Harry and Hermione riding {{spoiler|a rhino conjured by Harry}} in order to make it to the finish line the fastest.
* ''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3931250/1/Men_of_War Men of War]'', a ''[[Gears of War]]''/''[[Halo]]'' fanfiction. Master Chief. Duel-wielding Troikas. Need I say more?
** Yeah, it has to be said. Two squads of Cogs are pinned in a room and being overrun by a literal army of wretches. The Chief literally drops in by crashing through the ceiling, and retrieves a flamethrower from a nearby weapons rack. [[Kill It Withwith Fire|Cue massive asswhooping.]]
** Master Chief kills a Berserker barehanded. By ''dropkicking it in the face.''
** Not to be outdone, in the next chapter, an entire platoon of Cogs and two king ravens are getting their asses handed to them by a Brumak. An extra large one to boot, with upgraded weapons to match. During this time, the Chief was raiding the armoury for a [[BFG|Galilean Nonlinear Rifle]]. Also known as: [[Halo|The Spartan Laser]]. When he joins the fight, he [[Your Head Asplode|takes out the Brumak]] with ''three shots''.
Line 321:
* [http://www.dotmoon.net/library_storyview.php?chapterid=296 She's Come Undone], an AU ''[[Sailor Moon]]'' where Usagi is placed in a mental asylum for the criminally insane by the government because her senshi battles were embarrassing them. She's given the choice of being set free but renouncing the fact she really was Sailor Moon, and staying in the hospital she's been confined in since forever and remaining a persona non grata and possibly never getting out alive. Her response: {{spoiler|giving them a figurative middle finger by ripping up the papers she's given that would have had her saying she wasn't really Sailor Moon but just crazy, and stomping on them. Followed by saying she will ''always'' be Sailor Moon with a smile on her face, even while she's being dragged and ''beaten'' by the nurses for not doing what she was told.}} The {{spoiler|Maya Angelou poem}} just enhances the awesome for me.
* Nazo Unleashed. The first episode opens with {{spoiler|Nazo nabbing a Chaos Emerald, then destroying the city it was located in}}. Then {{spoiler|it goes into a three-minute brawl as Nazo beats the crap out of Sonic, Tails, and Knuckles}}, followed by Sonic {{spoiler|turning into Dark Sonic.}} Episode two kicks the action up even further as {{spoiler|Super Sonic}} and {{spoiler|Super Shadow go two-on-one against Nazo}}. Finally, in the third Episode, {{spoiler|Nazo uses the Chaos Emeralds AND the Master Emerald to go Super himself, then beats the ever-loving crap out of Super Sonic and Super Shadow. [[Rule of Cool|Then both hedgehogs turn the Emeralds into Super Emeralds so they can go Hyper, and then FUSE into Hyper Shadic]]. What follows next is a one-on-one battle across Angel Island, into SPACE, then back to the island, before Nazo uses the Super Emeralds to go Hyper as well, followed by what can only be described as a Dark Spirit Bomb versus a Wave Motion Cannon}}. It's basically to Flash what [[Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann]] is to anime.
* Elle Bishop gets a crowning moment in Creedog VanDrey's ''[[Heroes (TV series)|Heroes]]'' series ''The World Entire''. Gabriel Gray has been [[Mind Rape|mentally tormented]] back to his serial killing Sylar persona, where he has returned to Primatech to steal the powers of the dangerous inmates there. He comes up Elle, his wife, leaving him a series of vitriolic voice mails. Upon seeing him, she is immediately realived until he telekinetically throws her into a wall in preparation to open up her head and steal her electrical abilities. {{spoiler|Without missing a beat, she attempts to seduce her [[Ax Crazy]] husband. When that fails, she berates him for even wasting his time on her dinky sparks. She then leads him on a tour of the cells, enticing him with the various superpowered inmates as if she were a waitress reading daily specials off a menu. The final "item" is ''their four-year-old son'' Noah, who has the one ability Sylar is most desperate for: immortality. The gambit works, while trying to kill his son, he has an emotional breakdown. He falls to his knees, seeing Elle only seconds away from electrocuting him. Later, when he asks her why offer up their son, she admits that [[Mama Bear|she needed to be alive to protect Noah]]. She then reveals what her plan was had electrocuting Sylar not worked while pulling out a pistol from the back of her jeans: she would have, without hestitation, shot him in the sweet spot that negates his healing abilities... then followed it up with [[No Kill Like Overkill|a dozen more bullets]] around the crown of his skull, followed by bashing his head against the cement wall until his brain fell out, which, if it wasn't in enough pieces for her liking...well, they have a "woefully underused blender". After making this point, she then proceeds to initiate sex.}}
* Chapter 20 of [http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4869171/20/Grand_Tour Grand Tour] has several, being essentially a climactic battle to cap a particluarly screwy [[Mega Crossover]] (''[[Ranma One Half|Ranma 1/2]]'', ''[[Star Trek (Franchise)|Star Trek]]'', ''[[Lyrical Nanoha]]'', ''[[Slayers]]'', and ''[[Berserk]]''). Most of the good guys get a crowning moment:
** Lina Inverse: nuking down a big chunk of the enemy force, including two members of the God Hand, with a single spell.
*** Nanoha's reaction to said spell made that moment even more awesome.
Line 335:
** And it give Kyon a HUGE CMOA, when he {{spoiler|fight against the dude Haruhi dumped after five minutes. Said guy was an [[Arrogant Kung Fu Guy]] and roughed Kyon up, eventually threating to do the same thing to everyone else in the SOS Brigade...}} [[Crouching Moron, Hidden Badass|BAD]] [[Berserk Button|IDEA]]! According to Nagato´s [[Techno Babble|explanations]] later, at this point Kyon {{spoiler|unlocked his [[Humans Are Special|human talent]] to [[Heroic Resolve|manipulate data]] to [[Tranquil Fury|CRUSH his opponent!]]}}
* There are several by [http://www.fanfiction.net/u/8744/Thrythlind Thrythlind]:
** [http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5175006/16/Divine_Blood Divine] [[Divine Blood (Fanfic)|Blood]] Chapter 11. {{spoiler|Ranma "Braiding Tornadoes"}}
** [http://thrythlind.deviantart.com/art/Kodachi-and-Mousse-vs-the-Oni-128849878 Kodachi and Mousse vs the Oni] from [http://www.fanfiction.net/s/223012/1/The_Amazon_and_The_Moneylender The Amazon and the Moneylender]
{{quote| "It did not understand whom it was facing."}}
Line 348:
* [http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2277668/1/Kingdom_of_Chaos Kingdom of Chaos], a ''[[Kingdom Hearts]]'' fic set after ''Chain Memories'' (written before ''Kingdom Hearts 2'') has a wonderful Crowning Moment at the hands of {{spoiler|Larxene. The Organization has been betrayed and hung out to dry by Axel (whose convoluted plot to restore his heart to him has just succeeded) and most of their members have been killed by a [[Deadly Upgrade|Deadly Upgraded]] Sora. About all that's left is Marluxia, who takes Axel to task for his betrayal and starts kicking his ass. Finally Axel is on his last legs and, as Marluxia delivers the killing blow, Larxene, combining a [[Heroic Sacrifice]] and a CMOA teleports into the space between Axel and Marluxia's scythe, saving him at the cost of her own life. Marluxia is so astonished that he actually offers Axel an elixr that can save her life en exchange for his surrender.}}
* Proving that [[Sturgeon's Law|there is always the other 10% that's]] [[So Cool Its Awesome]], the ''[[Kingdom Hearts]]'' [[Slash]] [[High School AU]] fanfic [http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4413465/1/Boys Boys] contains a ''major'' one for Sora in chapter 20: The Day I Tried To Live. The fic deals (professionally) with the difference between real and fake, the importance of [[I Am What I Am|owning up to what you are rather than fighting it]], and the connections between the two. Sora finally reaches a conclusion on the matter, and {{spoiler|kisses Riku right on the lips in the middle of the senior hall, thereby proclaiming his acceptance of the story's events and indicating how little he cares about anyone who has a problem with them.}} It's written and presented so that the response, even for the most devoted of [[Yaoi Fangirls]], is not to [[Squee]], but to stand up and cheer.
* [[With Strings Attached (Fanfic)|With Strings Attached]] has a ton of these, including:
** When each of the four gets his magic, particularly when John flies.
** When Paul explodes, when he lifts the first piece of the Vasyn, when the troll bashes him against the cavern walls, and when he escapes the five "Hitler Youth" agents in New Zork.
Line 356:
** And collectively, the battle on the Plains of Death.
* The Harry Potter/Lovecraft crossover "Gentleman Usher of the Scarlet Rod" has some good moments, but the true CMoA that comes to mind is when Harry explains his plan for dealing with C'thulhu's half-brother coming for him;
* The webcomic site Stardroids.net is full of one shots and story arcs for the ''[[Mega Man (Videovideo Gamegame)|Mega Man]]'' and ''[[Mega Man X (Video Game)|Mega Man X]]'' series, ranging from [[Crowning Moment of Heartwarming|heart warming]] to [[Crowning Moment of Funny|gut-bustingly hilarious]] to [[Rule of Cool|unbelievably awesome]], but the real awesome is in the most recent story arc, True Blue: Under Fire. During the storyline, X is consumed by an evil version of himself, given a Healing Factor, and Zero is faced with the task of taking him down. The sheer level of Determinator in Zero becomes a CMOA when {{spoiler|after losing an arm, being torn apart, and welded to a wall, Zero rips himself off the wall}} and keeps fighting X.
* There's at least one per chapter in ''People Lie'', a ''[[Naruto]]'' fanfic by Nugar, but the one that stands out to me the most combines not only awesome, but heartwarming and funny. Naruto and Hinata are nearly half-dead and unconscious after {{spoiler|defeating a [[Cosmic Horror|Shoggoth]] and destroying an evil cult.}} That's the awesome. Sasuke {{spoiler|carries Hinata and Naruto all the way back to Konoha}}, being severly beaten up himself when only a few days before, there were mutual death threats between him and Hinata. That's the heartwarming. The funny comes from {{spoiler|all three of them being entirely ''naked'', and references to fangirls attempting to make Naked Sasuke Day a national holiday.}}
* ''[[Those Lacking Spines (Fanfic)|Those Lacking Spines]]'' contains a truckload deal of these. This troper's personal favorite is Larxene's [[Roaring Rampage of Revenge]].
* The ''[[Digimon Adventure|Digimon]]'' fic [http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5036837/1/Its_A_Grand_Old_Team_to_Play_For It's A Grand Old Team to Play For], which has Tai Kamiya playing for [[British Footy Teams|Glasgow Celtic]] has two in chapters 6 and 7. The first is when Tai passes to his teammate--who he hated for some time--{{spoiler|and the teammate scores to beat Manchester United}} and the second is when {{spoiler|''Tai himself'' scores ''twice'' in two minutes to help his team win}}.
* In chapter 28 of the [[Higurashi no Naku Koro Nini|Higurashi]] fanfic ''Redemption'' (as well as in the last half of the story in general), several characters earn their CMOAs. The one that stood out for this troper in particular was Mion's CMOA: {{spoiler|She has only one gun...and manages to ''take down five soldiers'' with it. And just when it's revealed she missed one...she just shoots him a second time and he dies.}}
* The [[Halo]] fanfic [http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4305125/1/ Enemy of My Enemy] is chock-full of them. These include:
** The previously-innefectual 2LT Brambley suddenly revealing his [[Obfuscating Stupidity|hidden]] badassitude and scaring the shit out of an obnoxious [[Obstructive Bureaucrat]].
Line 367:
** A Sangheili named Marikos is informed that the human's chaingun turret can't angle up high enough to shoot down enemy Banshees... so he rips it off its hinges, blows some Banshees out of the sky, and proceeds to carry the thing around like nothing for the rest of his time in the campaign.
** The Brute-controlled [[Humongous Mecha|Scarab]] getting {{spoiler|shot in the face point-blank by artillery cannons, right after the Chieftain leading it bragged about [[Nothing Can Stop Us Now|being]] [[Tempting Fate|unstoppable]]}}.
** The [[Kill It Withwith Fire|method]] that the humans use to kill another Brute-controlled Scarab.
** The showdown between Elite sniper Zerat and the Jackal sniper "Yik, Slayer of Men", both absurdly-skilled marksmen, and {{spoiler|[[Rock Beats Laser|how Zerat kills him]]}}
** The final showdown between Elite [[Da Chief|Shipmaster]] [[Reasonable Authority Figure|Arume]] and [[Big Bad|Brute]] [[Large and In Charge|High]]-[[Drop the Hammer|Chieftain]] [[Lightning Bruiser|Torikus]].
Line 375:
* Chapter 13 of the ''[[Axis Powers Hetalia]]'' fanfic ''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5063340/1/Outcast Outcast]'': {{spoiler|"That boy just so happens to be ''my'' gormless, Yankee, muggle. So. Kindly. Step. OFF!"}}
* Despite the fact that it's a Crossover [[Crack Fic]], [[Nanoha Striker S|Deed]] manages to get one of her own in [http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5406239/2/Time_Loop Time Loop] when she {{spoiler|[[Defeat Means Friendship|Befriends]] Kodachi with her "Twin Blade Breaker"}}
* In [http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5210983/1/Fates_Gambit Fate's Gambit] by robst, a nine year old Harry leaves the Dursley's with the help of Fate ([[It Makes Sense in Context|It Makes Sense In Context]]). However, no one knows where he's gone and so both the Muggle and Wizarding worlds assume the Dursley's killed him. It soon gets out that Dumbledore is the one who put Harry there in the first place, causing him to fall HARD from grace. Cue eight year old Ginny Weasley, who is in Diagon Alley at the same time as Dumbledore to return a book of falsified stories about Harry Potter's supposed real life adventures. However upon seeing Dumbledore, Ginny proceeds to, as the text says, 'express the wizarding world's opinion of Dumbledore' by hurling the hardcover book at him with enough force to ''break his nose''. Even though Harry's not actually dead, it's still pretty awesome.
* In [http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2378918/1/Malign_Contingency Malign Contingency] by Edcrab, the author has essentially taken the Half-Life setting and introduced so many additional factions that it borders on original fiction. The story waddles along sedately and inconsistently until the finale, when the grand plan becomes clear, including a segment where {{spoiler|Forty the Combine Elite finally does something remotely relevant and slaughters the alien assassin that's been stalking the main characters since the outset, and then proceeds to murder his way through the crew of an entire starship to demonstrate to his superiors that he's not a failed project. Part of it is the sheer relief that he didn't deliver the smackdown to the good guys...}}
** Really? Read it and I'd say {{spoiler|the evil [[Ass Pull]] that sees the whole group killed by a Strider was better... cos it actually turns out that the supercomputer has finally used the teleportation technology which is apparently so wonderfull for the Domarians, and it hasn't been forgotten about. That and the saw-it-coming-but-loved-it-anyway reunion ending}}
Line 383:
* [http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4705142/1/Zero_vs_Kira Zero vs Kira], this crossover fic is basically an epic win from the start, on behalf of our favorite [[Villain Protagonist]] Light. As soon as he teleported into ''[[Code Geass]]'', first thing he does is to trick the guards, commander, and the scientist who is responsible of his presence to write their names and the commander's cause of death?
{{quote| '''Light:''' It says "George Taurus: orders his men to write their names down in a book, will succumb to an overwhelm fear for his own life and will follow any command given in order to save himself, dies in 30 minutes."}}
* [http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2586094/1/Harry_Potter_Raven Harry Potter: Raven,] a crossover fanfic of ''[[Harry Potter]]'' and ''[[Teen Titans (Animationanimation)|Teen Titans]]'', has one in [http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2586094/14/Harry_Potter_Raven Chapter 14,] when the demon Axilano, who has unleashed an army of demons in Jump City and has been attempting to capture Harry Potter/Raven Azar for his master Trigon, finds himself on the receiving end of a massive ass-kicking. The original Titans, Terra, Poison Ivy, Harley Quinn, Dr. Light, Zatanna, Doctor Fate, Hawkgirl, Batman, Etrigan, and a Harry ''from another universe'', most of them ''very'' pissed off at him for picking on Raven, proceed to beat on him like he owes them money. And who gets the final blow? Harley Quinn. The Omakes at the end of the same chapter probably qualify as [[Crowning Moment of Funny]].
* The entirety of [http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5013714/1/Edward_Vs_Edward Edward Vs Edward], a ''[[Twilight (Literaturenovel)|Twilight]]''/''[[Fullmetal Alchemist]]'' crossover, is pretty much a CMoA for Edward Elric. Most of the dialogue is Edward Elric bashing Edward Cullen's insults with ease.
{{quote| '''Edward Cullen''': I'm practically perfect in every way.<br />
'''Edward Elric''': I don't NEED to be perfect for people to like me. OR fall in love with me.<br />
Line 395:
{{quote| '''Armstrong''': FOOL! These sparkles and this godlike figure have been [[Memetic Mutation|PASSED DOWN THE ARMSTRONG LINE FOR GENERATIONS!]] This was my shtick before you even EXISTED, lover-boy!}}
* From ''The Hokage's Will'' by Airhead dude, we have the long anticipated Naruto vs Sasuke match. {{spoiler|Naruto basically outclasses Sasuke in taijutsu-with Sasuke having no defense against Sage Mode Phantom Punches, so Sasuke amps up the ally by going fully incomplete Susano'o, thinking he has it won now. Know what Naruto does? Toss the Rasenshuriken into the Susano'o...and completely and utterly SHATTERS it like glass.}} So. Awesome.
* The ''[[Fruits Basket]]'' Western fic (That's right, you heard me!) ''[[The Swordsman and The Gunslinger (Fanfic)|The Swordsman and The Gunslinger]]'' is made of this, and gives each protagonist a CMOA. The first one is when Kyo Sohma, the titular swordsman, takes out three gunmen win thirty seconds, armed only with a ''katana''. This establishes him as the premier [[Badass]] of the fic.
* ''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5453047/1/Graveyard_Shift Graveyard Shift]'', a ''[[Mass Effect]]'' novelization being written by the same author behind ''[[Tiberium Wars (Fanfic)|Tiberium Wars]]'' and ''[[Forward (Fanfic)|Forward]]'', has one for Wrex almost right off the bat, when a trio of assassins dressed up as C-Sec officers show up and try to "arrest" him. Wrex chats with them for a bit {{spoiler|before suddenly killing all three in the span of a couple of seconds with casual and insulting ease. Then he tells off the leader of the group, saying he's really disappointed with him for the "fake arrest routine."}}
* Latias from ''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2053520/5/Latias_Journey Latias' Journey]''. She's depicted mostly as a gentle, somewhat timid and fearful Pokémon. That changes ''big time'' in Chapter 5. {{spoiler|After watching a bunch of evil bird Pokémon butcher a bunch of baby Flying and Bug types in Wing Fortress, she goes completely apeshit. The end result: a bunch of enemy Flying types lying in pieces in nursery, followed by a Psychic attack so powerful that it could best be described as a [[Fantastic Nuke|psychic nuke]]. ''That'' is followed up with an even more ''obscenely'' powerful Fire (or Dragon) attack that completely ''obliterates'' Wing Fortress and a large piece of the surrounding forest.}} It is ''[[Nightmare Fuel|utterly terrifying]]'' but at the same time [[Crowning Moment of Awesome|awesome]].
* Michael, [[Action Survivor]] main character for ''[[Toy Hammer (Fanfic)|Toy Hammer]]'', gets an extended one for not only being able to - through diplomacy, threats and friendship (also, [[Incredibly Lame Pun|impressing]] [[Running Gag|the commanders]] with his [[Improbable Weapon User|fire extinguisher]] - he manages to get the Human, Eldar, Tau and even ''Ork'' forces of ''[[Warhammer 40000]]'' to not only stop fighting, but to co-exist (more or less) and even - when the need arose - to ''fight as one'', we have to give him a [[Crowning Moment of Awesome]]... or a [[Crowning Moment of Heartwarming]].
Line 421:
'''Gendo (dismissively)''': Ah. Well, don't let it happen again. By the way, Fuyutsuki, make sure he and his wife leave Japan as soon as possible. I think there is a military cargo flight bound for Germany leaving shortly. See to it they are on it before it leaves, will you?<br />
'''Fuyutsuki''': By your command. }}
* The Evangelion/DBZ crossover fic [[Eva Possibilities and Fusion Pandemonium (Fanfic)|Eva Possibilities and Fusion Pandemonium]] has a few good ones, such as Vegeta utterly dominating Shamshel and then making a one-Saiyan siege to rescue his captive son from Gendo's clutches. Also, {{spoiler|Gogeta vs. Bardiel}}.
* Few fanfics mimic their source material as perfectly as [http://www.rdrop.com/~/wyvern/data/houseplants.html Houseplants of Gor], a parody of John Norman's ''[[Gor]]'' series. It's simultaneously a CMOA and a CMOF.
* These two stories, [http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3293585/1/Harry_Potter_and_the_Unexpected_Visitor Harry Potter and the Unexpected Visitor] and [http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3664961/1/Prodigy Prodigy] (yep, he is a big fan of the Harry Potter Canon couples). The author, despite not being a native, can nonetheless write with better grammar than many English and American people in Fanfiction.net, and has managed to write two scenes which are quite good [[Crowning Moment of Awesome]] in my opinion:
** In The Unexpected Visitor, chapter 25, Dementors and Death Eaters attack Hogsmeade while the students are there. Harry Potter takes charge of the situation while the Order of the Phoenix and the Ministry Aurors arrive, and he contributes quite a lot to the defence of the town. However, the CMoA comes when, after realising that there are very few Patroni (plural of Patronus) still around and several hundreds of Dementors, he [[It Makes Sense in Context|makes up a charm on the spot]] that absorbs the still living Patroni and transforms them into creatures of fire of different colours that utterly destroy the Dementors, freeing all the souls they have Kissed.
** In Prodigy, chapter 11, Quirrell decides, instead of freeing the troll on the dungeons, to send it directly into the Great Hall to cause as much harm as possible as well as distracting Dumbledore. The troll arrives just when Harry and his friends (Ron, Hermione and Neville) are getting out of the Great Hall, thus encountering him right on the door (this scene is told from Harry, Albus Dumbledore, Sirius Black and Molly Weasley). Just when the troll is going to smash them with its club, Harry, on instinct, manages to cast a magical shield that not only stops the club, but utterly destroys it into tiny pieces, and then gets his friends to scatter. Then, the troll charges Hermione, but Ron manages to push her to a side just in time for the troll to go head on the wall, although Ron breaks his leg in the process. Neville uses a [[Exactly What It Says Onon the Tin|Jelly-Legs Jinx]] on the troll powerful enough to affect it, and then Harry manages to turn the troll into tiny chunks of burned out flesh and blood using one charm. But the CMoA hasn't finished yet! Later, Voldemort (who is now wandering around in spirit form, Quirrell having been killed by Fluffy) attempts to possess Harry, trying to steal his body. However, Harry, aided by Magic (a personification of all the magic in the world, acting much like Gaia would do) and by the Sorting Hat, manages to keep Voldemort out of his mind and then, confronting him, kicks him out of his mind in [[Groin Attack|a move]] that also doubles as [[Crowning Moment of Funny]].
* [http://www.fanfiction.net/u/1298323/Finmonster# Finmonster] asks, what if every comic book universe (Marvel, D.C., Darkhorse, Aliens, Predators, etc...) is in the same universe, then adds Harry Potter just because.[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3593629/1/The_Marvelous_World_of_DC_Part_1_In_the_Begining This is the result.] Has a way of giving each character at least one of these every fight scene too.
** For exapmle; in Chapter eleven Victor Von Doom is covered in third degree. And when the Hulk attacks him, what does he do? Why, he taunts him about how pathetic he is while holding his own against him! Of course, Hulk eventually manages to punch him across the country. Eventually. And that's just one of the CMOAs in that chapter.
Line 436:
* There's a ''[[Phineas and Ferb]]'' fanfic called "Doof Wins" in which [[Loony Fan|Irving]] of all people gets one. Doofenshmirtz is preparing to {{spoiler|disintegrate Perry The platypus}} when Irving shows up and assumes he wants to harm Phineas and Ferb. Then he jumps into the air and ''punches Doof in the face'', destroys the combine-inator (Long Story), and unfreezes Perry who then precedes to give Doof a severe beating. Yes Irving just single handily saved the day. Wow.
* One excellent ''Yu-Gi-Oh!'' fic by the name of [http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4659502/1/ Homecoming] featured the long-suffering Ryou Bakura, always portrayed as the helpless woobie in fanfiction, finally being pushed to his breaking point and ''slamming Yami Bakura in the face with a freaking baseball bat''.
* There's the ''[[Mass Effect]]'' [[Self Insert]] ''[[Mass Vexations (Fanfic)|Mass Vexations]]'', during which [[Author Avatar]] Art finds himself having to drive the Mako after Shepard suffers a hand injury. Aside from turning that entire section into a not-too-subtle [[Back to The Future]] reference, it's a moment of awesome on its own given that Art successfully drives Shepard and the crew to the Conduit. What makes it even better is that it's the cap of an entire fic's worth of character development for Art; he's gone from someone who's never fired a firearm to a very good soldier by Alliance standards.
* The ''Zelda'' FanFic ''[[Exoria|The Legend of Zelda: Exoria]]'': Link, a member of Hylian Joint Intelligence, needs to find a vehicle which he can use to get Princess Zelda out of the city. He finds the MRX402A ULATRV, codename Epona, and proceeds to avoid two road blocks (blowing up one and avoiding the other by getting up on the curb and turning into an alley), outrun or lose a total of Humvees, outrun the crumbling of a highway cause by one of two attack helicopters shooting out the support with a missile, trick one attack helicopter into crashing into a building, ''drive up a breaking tree to get on the upper level of a highway'', fend off two gunsword wielders ''also'' on motorcycles, jump off one end of a drawbridge to land on the other, dodge a missile of the remaining helicopter whose blast cloud destroys said helicopter, and outrun a fricken' ''' ''spider mecha'' '''.
* ''[[Kyon: Big Damn Hero]]'' has Kyon vs [[Yakuza]], numerous times. All of them count: one was a [[Big Damn Heroes]] moment, another was with Nagato and they beat ''24'' Yakuza, and the third is another [[Big Damn Heroes]] moment [[Time Travel|that hasn't happened yet.]] It's Kyon on his own against 12 [[Yakuza]].
** It finally happened, and it was even more awesome than the fight with 24 [[Yakuza]].
** Then there was what he did to intimidate Mori... [[Dynamic Entry]] involving jumping from thirty feet up unharmed, handing an eavesdropper to the Organisation, and blackmailing her. With no prior planning.
Line 463:
'''Marlene:''' Where did they take my son? }}
** Kidnapper #2 spills the beans immediately. [[Firefly|Captain Reynolds]] would be proud.
* [http://www.fanfiction.net/s/6266421/1/FATE_Holy_Grail_War_of_2814 FATE/Holy Grail War of 2814], an offshoot story of [[Takamachi Nanoha of 2814 (Fanfic)|Takamachi Nanoha of 2814]], has Archer fighting the Wolkeritter by himself. Through a combination of Tracing, emotional manipulation based on his memories, and Unlimited Blade Works, he starts creating [[Green Lantern|power rings]]. He starts with enraging the Wolkenritter by threatening Hayate, using their rage to make a Red ring (and making a giant angry construct of Rin), drawing on their love for her to make a Violet ring, and using Signum's will, Vita's hope, and Zafira's compassion to make Green, Blue, and Indigo. Despite bleeding from everywhere from the strain, he blasts them all with a Ring-Construct [[Lyrical Nanoha|Starlight Breaker]] big enough to be seen from orbit and uses their fear to make a Yellow ring.
** {{spoiler|Of course, all of that was to free them and the Book of Darkness from Angra Mainyu's corruption, upon which he willfully surrenders his Linker Core to help save Hayate's life. Even if you don't like him, you have to admit he always has style.}}
* A series of novelisations of the ''[[Half-Life]]'' games, ''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3147068/1/The_Black_Mesa_Incident The Black Mesa Incident]'' and ''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4389329/1/Welcome_to_City_17 Welcome to City 17]'', are full to the brim with this trope, mostly by virtue of [[Badass Bookworm|Gordon Freeman]] being [[One-Man Army|Gordon Freeman]]. Even by his standards there are plenty of exceptional moments, including Gordon destroying a Gunship by dropping a piece of a bridge on it, destroying another Gunship by directing it into a Strider's warp cannon, then destroying that same Strider by ''riding on top of it and jamming a grenade into it'', and killing the Nihilanth using nothing but his trusty crowbar, driving it straight into its brain.
Line 475:
'''The Silent Ones''': Explain yourself, human.<br />
'''Rick''': It happened, alright? My fusion with Terren’sk, Mom and Dad’s deaths, all of it! It happened, and I wish it hadn’t, but it did! There’s nothing that’ll change it, and it’s a part of who I am now. Besides, who’s to say there isn’t a way to break the bond? Kill Terren’sk, and you lose a warrior, you lose someone who’s put his life on the line against Cobweb time and again, you lose someone who’s saved who knows how many lives, both in the Mindscape and on Earth! Besides, you think of all the criminals he’s iced, they’re not going away on their own! ''(To Sleepwalker)'' Until you can return home, we still need you. }}
* ''ALL'' of <s>Chapter</s> Episode 15 of ''[[Power Rangers GPX (Fanfic)|Power Rangers GPX]]''.
* [http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3415504/1/Prodigy prodigy]. This story is actually pretty insane, and not just for the fact that it's a crossover between, ahem: Harry Potter, Crime Scene Investigation, House MD, Grey's Anatomy, Numb3rs, Psych, Law and Order:Special Victims Unit, Naval Criminal Investigative Services, and possibly even more. No, I'm not kidding. Nearly the entire story (Which is 140,841 words, if I may add.) is so awesome. Words don't describe it, while it does have the thin base of a lot of HP AU's (Harry Potter's twin is named BWL, Harry is ignored.) If runs away with it and crashes that idea into a building, then lights the building. This is easily a '[[Crowning Moment of Funny]]' as well.
* ''[[Supernatural (TV series)|Supernatural]]'': [http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4949127/1/Deterioration_of_Reason Deterioration of Reason] features an OC!Gabriel fighting a demon who had kidnapped, tortured and humiliated Castiel. Gabriel's [[Berserk Button]] was [[Big Brother Instinct|already pushed]] and he was already [[Curb Stomp Battle|beating the crap]] out of the demon. But the moment the demon implied that he did [[Rape Asas Drama|something else]] to Castiel, even '''God himself''' has had enough. This sentence said it all.
{{quote| It was the response of [[Papa Wolf|an incensed Father]] to the torture and ridicule of one of his sons, it was the vengeful mark of the Lord himself.}}
* [http://www.fanfiction.net/s/6470827/1/Not_a_Typical_Civil_War Not a Typical Civil War] gets one when {{spoiler|Doom reveals that he [[Magnificent Bastard|manipulated the entire superhero community into going to war]] brags about how he is going to kill their families, and unleash every Supervillain in 42 to kill them in a desperate fight for their lives, and how when the whole ordeal is over [[Batman Gambit|he won't have to take over the world because the world will be begging him to take over]]. When told by [[Iron Man]] that there was no way they would let this plan succeed, he subverts [[Just Between You and Me|his villain monologueing]] and reveals that while he was distracting them with the grand reveal he was pumping an undetectable gas into the room so when the villains came to tear them to pieces they'd be helpless.}}
Line 485:
*** To clarify, {{spoiler|Speedball beats Dr. Doom into a bloody pulp, and then takes out the Sentry with a tape recorder.}}
** Namor broke his hands. How did he break his hands? He punched the Sentry's head into non-existence, that's how he broke his hands.
* The entirety of [http://www.tthfanfic.org/Story-23778-1/DWduck+The+Angel+s+Voice.htm The Angel's Voice]. Its a [[Doctor Who]]/[[Angel (TV)|Angel]] crossover... [[Musical Episode|involving Sweet]]. Particular awesome are the duet between The Doctor and [[The Master]] as they clobber Daleks together, and the chorus number by The Doctor and his previous nine regenerations.
* In the [[Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha]] fic ''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5086723/1/Stahlkonigin Stahlkönigin]: Nanoha using full power, blaster-3 Starlight Breaker to destroy a target with MASSIVE magic defense? Business as usual. Vivio {{spoiler|withstanding the same attack for a minute or more in order to block it from hitting civilian buildings}}? Epic.
* In Silens Cursor's fic [http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4714715/1/Renegade_Cause Renegade Cause], Chapter 35 {{spoiler|(the invasion of Azkaban by Voldemort's amassed army)}} is rife with Moments of Awesome. Between {{spoiler|Tonks' brutal and bloody battle with a traitorous Auror, Sirius 300-kicking Bellatrix down a flight of stairs, the desperate charge of the Azkaban guards against a horde of escapees and werewolves led by Fenrir Greyback himself, and the epic stalling fight between Voldemort and a vastly-outclassed Kingsley Shacklebolt}}, it's a chapter to be remembered as epic and awesome.
* The ''[[Homestuck (Webcomic)|Homestuck]]'' fanfiction [[WereWe're All Doomed (Fanfic)|Were All Doomed]] has many, so I'll just list a few:
** Chapter 3: Future {{spoiler|Gamzee}} 2 manages to throw off his murderous past self's tirade with one word: {{spoiler|[[Ho Nk]].}}
** Chapter 9: Tavros out-raps Dave. That is all.
Line 508:
* Chapter 16 of the Code Geass fic [http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4994784/16/ Code Geass Megiddo]. The Ikaruga is about to be destroyed by the Avalon. In response Kallen {{spoiler|using her geass to spot the shield weak points}} declares, "Lelouch... This is my miracle!" and attacks and shoots down the Avalon by herself.
* The Family Guy fic [http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5961606/1/ Payback from a Pipe] has Stewie beats up Quagmire after he [[Kick the Dog|beat Brain in Quagmire's Dad]] then he calls Glenn out on his hypocrisy over the stuff he said to Brain and deals him a [[Reason You Suck Speech]] and makes Quagmire apologize to Brain. Fro those who hate how Glenn has been treating Brian lately this is perfect for you.
* In a cutway in ch.38 of [[Family Guy]]'s [[The Spellbook (Fanfic)|The Spellbook]] which a I call "Aquaman's Revenge"
{{quote| '''Peter dressed as Black Manta''': Surrender, you fool! We all know that you have no powers out of water!<br />
'''Aquaman''': Outrighteous! I can't believe that you don't know that this is ''[[Batman|The Brave and the Bold]]''!<br />
Line 520:
** And Eddie Valiant's following fight with the Horseman, managing to use his [[Lethal Joke Item]] to [[Disney Villain Death|push the horseman off a flying ship]].
{{quote| The Horseman decided he hated this human more than any other being in any other world, and by the time he hit the ground, he had decided not to cut off his head, but to systematically break and destroy every single fibre of his being, starting with his toe tips, and continuing up to his neck, keeping him alive until the very end, and then wearing his head as a trophy during the Red Queen's gallas.}}
* The final battle in the [[Kingdom Hearts]] fic ''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3656471/1/bOmega_b_bDawn_b Omega Dawn]''. The entirety of the battle is a continous CMOA, but the real thing happens when {{spoiler|Kairi regains her Princess of Heart powers and Riku getting all maximum power: after Kairi delivered a [[In the Name of Thethe Moon]] speech, she [[Drop the Hammer|drops the hammer]] (summoned literally from the [[Hammerspace]], [[Light'Em Up|made of pure light]], surrounded with flames from Riku's keyblade) against the cowering Ruxik}}.
* Poland, in the Hetalia fanfiction ''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5352659/1/1940_Lithuania 1940: Lithuania]''. He spends the first two thirds of the story alternating between being forced to work in a factory making uniforms for German soldiers and getting beaten up by Russia and locked in his room for several days at a time for not knowing when to shut up. Then Lithuania sneaks into Poland's room and finds out that Poland has been ''running an organized resistance movement from his closet this whole time'' and mailing instructions to his rebel forces by climbing out of his second story window and sneaking off to the post office, mailing the coded letters, then climbing back into his room, despite the fact that he is ''seriously'' weakened because Germany and Russia are killing so many of his people. Also, he blew up one of Germany's ammunition factories offscreen.
* Fate/Black Reflection. [[Bleach|Ichigo Kurosaki]] vs. [[Fate/stay Stay Nightnight|Saber]]. [[Sword Beam|Getsuga Tenshou]] vs. [[Wave Motion Gun|Excalibur]]. {{spoiler|The end result is a stalemate.}}
** This whole fic is actually a crowning moment of awesome for this troper; Ichigo's servant is ''Rider.'' The mere fact that it's [[Jerk Withwith a Heart of Gold|Ichigo]] who summons [[The Woobie|Rider]] makes it a CMOA, and a CMOH. Add to the fact that because Ichigo's in the mix, {{spoiler|Rider doesn't die,}} and she isn't subjected to {{spoiler|[[Complete Monster|Shinji's]] }} torment, and this troper has officially declared this his favorite crossover EVER.
* In the [[Lucky Star]] fanfic [http://www.fanfiction.net/s/6783865/1/ The Day Everything Changed], after seeing Kagami be mercilessly attacked and laughed at by the fanfic's [[Ax Crazy|main]] [[Complete Monster|antagonist]], Konata decides that the time has come to take a stand against her friend's attacker. Despite being a foot shorter and about 75 pounds smaller, she ends up winning. What makes it even more awesome is the fact that she herself was badly beaten up during the scuffle but she still kept fighting, determined to protect Kagami from any more harm. Well done, Konata. My hat goes off to you.
* The scene where {{spoiler|Kirby destroys Dark Matter}} in ''[[The Dream Land Story]]'' is undeniably awesome. {{spoiler|Kirby manages to catch ''Dark Matter'' (which had previously shown itself to have almost perfect reaction time) off guard, giving it a ruthless beatdown with the Star Rod.}}
