* In ''[[Eyeshield 21]]'', Hiruma plays the second half of the game with the Hakushuu Dinosaurs with a broken right arm. Keep in mind that he's a quarterback (the position which throws the ball) A month later, at the Christmas Bowl, it still hasn't exactly healed, so he'll have to keep off it... causing the star running back of the opponents, the Teikoku Alexanders, to say he'll ''also'' play without using his right arm. And while this ultimately turns out to have been a ploy by Hiruma so the Alexanders would underestimate him, Yamato keeps using only one arm until he's forced to do otherwise, to show he doesn't need to try to kick ass.
* In one episode of [[Vision of Escaflowne]], Van got himself tied with his hands up. He pulled the one of his guards' sword from the scabbard ''with his legs'', throwing it so it would cut the rope he was tied with, and then proceeded to off the soldiers aroung in industrial quantities.
* ''[[Ranma ½|[[Ranma ½]]'': Kodachi tried to hinder Ranma's agility by shackling her to Akane's pet piglet P-chan. It backfired spectacularly since it provided Ranma with a piggy-shaped flail.
** She might have assumed Ranma wouldn't want to hurt the cute innocent widdle pig. "Pig is VALID weapon...." Cue the squealing....
** Near the end of the manga, Ranma's hands and arms were held in place and encased in nigh-indestructible crystal, product of [[Big Bad|Saffron]]'s metamorphosis. He was still able to fight almost to his full abilities, even wielding the spear-like Gekkaja with his toes and cut a giant Phoenix statue's neck in half that way.
