** Let's not forget "A Sultan Worth His Salt", where Jasmine receives warrior training after being kidnapped by a group of Amazons.
** This carries over into the final sequel, ''The King of Thieves'' where she holds her own against the Forty Thieves, all of which are at least twice her size.
* Aelita from ''[[Code Lyoko]]'' spends the first two seasons as a [[Distressed Damsel in Distress]] needing the protection of the [[Hero Secret Service]] (and sometimes picking the [[Distress Ball]] herself, to the point of being considered [[The Load]] by part of the fandom). Then by Season 3 she gains an attack power and no longer can be killed just by losing all her [[Hit Point|Hit Points]]. She also progressively gets more confident, turning into a full-fledged [[Action Girl]]. She is still XANA's [[Designated Victim]] throughout Season 3 and 4 thanks to her [[MacGuffin Girl]] status, but now she's certainly fighting back.
* Spyke from ''[[X-Men: Evolution|X-Men Evolution]]''. True to the name, Spyke went through a major Evolution over the course of the series. He went from being [[The Scrappy|the slacker all the internet fans hated]] in season one and two, to being put on a bus in season 3, [[Rescued From the Scrappy Heap|to emerging as a new found badass that people suddenly liked]] in Season 4.
** Could be Argued everyone took a level in Badass in the opening of season 3, it started with them breaking their friends out of Area 51, hiding out in a cave ([[Memetic Mutation|With a box of scraps!]]) take out several high powered military choppers & beat up Juggernaut (Who in season 1 they needed everyone, plus the Brotherhood to take off his Helmet so Chuck could mind blast him), Cyclops especially when they go back to school & has his glasses taken, he beats up the jerks who stole them & then later gets stranded in Mexico without his glasses, & survives fighting Wolves!
