Line 62:
** Ichigo himself after {{spoiler|his training in Dangai. He was strong enough to easily beat Aizen when Aizen was in his upgraded form thanks to the Hogyoku. No wonder he had to lose his powers or else every other conflict in the story would be Ichigo curbstomping his opponent. It still wasn't enough to kill Aizen who currently has a [[Nigh Invulnerability]] status.}}
* The ''[[Digimon]]'' franchise:
** [[Digimon Adventure|Angemon, and later HolyAngemon]], both seem to be on par with Digimon one level above their own. To recap: Patamon first evolved to Angemon in order to defeat Devimon (the first [[Big Bad]]), then didn't reach Adult-level again until halfway through the Vamdemon saga. When all of the Digimon evolved to their highest-level forms in order to face Vamdemon (Perfect for all 7 others), it was Angemon's attack that destroyed Phantomon, one of Vamdemon's most powerful subordinates at the Perfect level, and his attack had a debilitating effect on Vamdemon himself whereas no-one else could touch him until Angewomon came along. Angemon finally gets to evolve to Perfect just before the end of the show, and does the majority of the work in defeating Piemon, an Ultimate-level digimon that had already beaten the combined might of WarGreymon and MetalGarurumon ''twice''.<br />On the other hand, perhaps to counteract, Angemon spent most of ''[[Digimon Adventure 02]]'' getting [[The Worf Effect|Worfed]]. HolyAngemon only made two appearances : in the first he failed to defeat another broken Ultimate, BlackWarGreymon, only because the power source he used to evolve was destroyed, whereas the second was not particularly notable and he didn't do much.
** Specifically, HolyAngemon defeated Piemon with the ludicrously broken skill of ''opening a gate to a land of divine punishment, dragging him in and shutting the entrance''. Admittedly, this does suggest that Piemon was himself a story-breaker as he was too powerful to conventionally defeat and could only be stopped by way of an equally broken Digimon.
** It's worth noting that Angemon is supposed to be particularly powerful against thematically evil digimon (such as demons, ghosts, the undead, and [[Arson, Murder, and Jaywalking|clowns]]), which makes sense given that he is an angelic Digimon. On the occasions where he fights Digimon who don't fit this criteria, he's no better than the other Adult Digimon.
