Line 28:
* In ''[[Fullmetal Alchemist (Manga)|Fullmetal Alchemist]]'', {{spoiler|Hohenheim}} pulls one in his [[Backstory]]. It's totally justified.
** Greed{{spoiler|ling}} pulls off one when he remembers his friend Bido, who {{spoiler|he just killed in cold blood.}}
** Scar does it too at one point, as, in all likelihood, did most of the fanbase after reading [[Wham! Episode|chapters 100 and 104]] of the manga.
** Edward starts off the [[Fullmetal Alchemist (Anime)|2003 anime version]] with one. Not that we blame him.
* Used in an episode of ''[[D Gray Man (Manga)|D Gray Man]]'' when {{spoiler|Road stabs Allen in the eye with a pointed candle}} and also beforehand, {{spoiler|when he rips his once-stuck arm from the wall.}} [[Fridge Horror]] kicks in when you realize he can't see Akuma without his formerly good eye. The scene cuts all around the room until he pulls the candle out, not allowing you to look at it.
Line 66:
* Otani of ''[[Lovely Complex (Manga)|Lovely Complex]]'' does [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M7DoEVyvWgs this] after Maity blows in his ear to wake him up during class.
* [[Crowning Moment of Funny|Comedic example]] in ''[[Fruits Basket (Manga)|Fruits Basket]]'' when Kyo wakes up and sees that Ayame, who Yuki has kicked out, has snuck into bed with him. Cue [[The Scream]].
* ''[[Black Butler (Manga)|Black Butler II]]'' episode 10. It begins with Hannah talking to Ciel and saying that she has something to show him. Then her mouth opens unnaturally wide to reveal [[Body Horror|this black abyss where the inside of a human mouth would be]]. The eye she stole from Alois Trancy is rooted in the back of her throat, and since Ciel's soul has been partially fused with Alois's at this point, he's basically staring at himself from inside her. Hannah watches calmly while Ciel suffers a [[Freak -Out|severe nervous breakdown]] and screams before falling unconscious.
* In ''[[Deadman Wonderland]]'' Ganta does this understandably as he's being forced to watch the Carnival of Corpses.
* In ''[[Elfen Lied]]'' Kouta does this after he sees his sister get killed in front of him by Lucy.
Line 86:
 
== Fan Fiction ==
* Happens twice in ''[[Kyon: Big Damn Hero (Fanfic)|Kyon Big Damn Hero]]'', both times when girls are seeing evidence of a voyeuristic illegal photography ring in their school.
 
 
Line 136:
* ''[[Time Splitters]] Future Perfect'' has a version where Sgt. Cortez shouts "Goddamnit" so loud, it can be heard approximately 100 years '''in the past'''
* ''[[Yume Nikki]]'': {{spoiler|aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA}}
* Very much non-comedic example: in the manga detailing the events leading up to ''[[Sengoku Basara (Video Game)|Sengoku Basara]] 3'', {{spoiler|[[Blood Knight|Date]] [[Handicapped Badass|Masamune]] of all people gets one of these when he runs up against Ishida Mitsunari. Oh, not for himself, even though Mitsunari beats the shit out of him and actually '''gores him'' through the stomach; it's when he regains consciousness in the [[Field of Blades|ruins of the battlefield]] and sees [[No -Holds -Barred Beatdown|what]] [[Ludicrous Gibs|Mitsunari]] [[Curb Stomp Battle|did]] to his [[Mauve Shirt|army of dorky mooks]] and his beloved [[Battle Butler]] [[Wiser Advisor|Katakura]] [[Hypercompetent Sidekick|Kojurou]] when they [[Big Damn Heroes|tried to protect Masamune while he was passed out from blood loss]]. Watching one of the most [[Badass]] fighters in a series that practically [[Rule of Cool|runs]] on [[Badass]] break down screaming and crying is...[[Tear Jerker|slightly upsetting]].}}
* In ''[[The Legend of Zelda Majoras Mask (Video Game)|The Legend of Zelda Majoras Mask]]'', the facial expression of the Zora Elegy of Emptiness statue uncannily resembles Munch's painting.
