* [[Kono Suba]] starts with a [[Parodied Trope|parody]] of [[Heroic Sacrifice]], which ends up falling into this trope more than any other defined trope. It's a bit [[Zig Zagged Trope|zigzagged]] though. The main character pushes someone out of the way of a vehicle that was going to stop before it hit her. {{spoiler|After he pushed her out of the way, the vehicle stopped before hitting him, but he was so sure he was going to die, he got a heart attack and died.}}

* In the beginning of ''[[Code Geass|Code Geass R2]]'' Urabe impales his own Knightmare with his Katana to land a surprise attack on the Vincent which nobody can hit, blowing himself up.
