* ''[[Dragon Ball]]'' has Korin and the Divine Water. If Goku wanted a drink from it, he had to get it away from Korin first. Of course, getting the water WAS the training, the water was just normal old water.

** And also, Kamesennin and the big boulder. True to ''Dragon Ball'''s comedic nature before Z, when Goku and Krillin both prove themselves able to move it after going through Master Roshi's training, he told them that he hadn't expected them to be able to move it.

* Played with in ''[[Marchen Awakens Romance]]''. After Gaira's [[Training From Hell]] that he puts Ginta and Jack through, Alvis asks for a showing of their power now. He takes two stones and fires them towards the two from behind. Ginta, intelligently moves out of the way, impressing Alvis. Jack instead grabs the stone out of the air. He then is seen rolling on the ground because the stone injured his hand. Alvis notes the power increase, but notes that Jack is still an idiot.

* In ''[[Aiki]]'', the first test Kunitoshi gives Kizuki is to catch an ayu fry with one hand - ''slowly'', not by just snatching it up. She spends an ''entire chapter'' trying to do this (it doesn't help that Metara and Hou Mei keep buying the wrong type of fish).

* ''[[Battle Angel Alita]]'' has some fun with this trope. After {{spoiler|Don Fua reveals himself}} during the ZOTT finale, {{spoiler|he challenges Alita to one of these, saying that if she can lay a hand on him he'll concede victory to her and the Space Angels on behalf of the Space Karate Team. In a [[Crowning Moment of Funny]] she (non-fatally) puts her fist through his face before he can even finish his sentence.}} He reacts by humorously chastising himself for underestimating her abilities like a fool.
