History HeartIsAnAwesomePower / AnimeAndManga

** Hisoka with his Bungee Gum. The power to make his aura sticky like gum, and the power to change the appearance and texture of thin surfaces. Those are his only Nen abilities. As lame as they sound, the way he uses them makes them overkill. He even named them in a rather cheesy manner, as they come from a chewing gum brand from when he was young. Especially since his ability opens up all kinds of opportunities for misdirection (fitting his MonsterClown magician persona.)

* ''Anime/{{Scryed}}'': Give Urizane a watermelon and his ImaginationBasedSuperpower lets him use that watermelon for ''anything.''

** Edge Shot has the ability to make his physiology flat and foldable, much like paper. He can ''break the sound barrier'' with this.

** Mirio Togata has the power of Intangibility, allowing him to pop in and out of any buildings, as well as the quirk being detrimental to him as well. But after mastering it, Mirio is able to evade attacks, punches and even quirk-based attacks by simply letting them pass through him.

** Murakami has the ability to convert 100% of his short-term memory into long-term memory after sleeping. A quick 10-minute nap between battles is all he needs to ingrain the opponents' strategies and fighting styles and develop a counter-strategy. Suffice to say, he quickly becomes [[TheDreaded a top-ranked attacker in record time]].
** Kageura can [[TheEmpath feel other people's emotions towards him on his skin]]. Combined with his skill, this makes him practically immune to ambushes and snipes.

* In ''Manga/SoukyuuNoShihaishaIsekaiNiTenseiShitaraSekaiNoOppaiWaOreNoMono'', the main character Hanakizawa Haruzawa is given by a goddess the power called "Double Sky Leader", which grants him the power to control breasts. While a seemingly ridiculous power and utterly useless on men, it means that he can cause breasts to suddenly move, forcing women to turn, fall, or move at his will, and can even immobilize women by making their breasts impossibly heavy. It's a power he literally describes as having control of half the world (Since half the world is female), especially since there's a large number of female knights, adventurers, and demons that regularly oppose him. Early on, he uses this power to destroy a curse that was bound to a tattoo on a woman's chest, since it was on her breasts and therefore within the domain of his powers.
* In ''Anime/RedoOfHealer'', everyone in the fantasy world believes that the healer class is the weakest and that healers cannot do anything alone. However, there's a rare variant of each class called [hero] which can take a normal class well beyond its limits. Most assume that this just means that the person who possesses the [hero] variant simply have way more potential and power than the normal version. Then the main character shows everyone that the [hero] class variant can also expand the abilities of a class categorically. Since his class is Healing[hero], he has absolute control over everything that has to do with healing and the body. He can alter his own physical attributes at will (increase strength as the expense of speed for instance), can alter the physical appearances of others, can read minds through touch or erase memories, copy physical skills, drain energy, to the point where the ability to heal becomes the ability to restructure. Hell, he was able to go back in time by using an artifact to "heal" the world, i.e. from his point of view, the world was sick so he went back in time to "fix" it.

* Main character Tanjiro in ''Manga/DemonSlayerKimetsuNoYaiba'' is promptly established to have a great sense of smell. This seems like an odd thing to put emphasis on, but Tanjiro takes his ability all the way into "[[Franchise/TouhouProject Touhou character]]" levels of application. He can smell and recognize the stench of demons from far away, itself an extremely useful ability in a line of work that involves tracking down and killing the things. He is extremely hard to strike by surprise as he can smell the odor of incoming attackers, even allowing him to predict attacks from odd locations such as underground. Perhaps most ridiculously, he can somehow smell the weak points of enemies, which, combined with [[CharlesAtlasSuperpower his training]], allows him to strike with ludicrous levels of precision. Unusually for the trope, at no point is his ability mocked InUniverse -- even before he becomes a demon hunter, we see him bail a man out of trouble with his keen sense of smell as he is able to determine that a vase said man was accused of breaking was actually shattered by a cat.

** Mirio Togata has the power of Intangibility, allowing him to pop in and out of any buildigns, as well as the quirk being detrimental to him as well. But after mastering it, Mirio is able to evade attacks, punches and even quirk-based attacks by simply letting them pass through him.

* ''Manga/OnePiece'' has plenty, as WordOfGod has said the Devil Fruits themselves don't become more powerful, the users just use them better with more creativity.
** RubberMan Luffy, since among the other Devil Fruit abilities his one is rather low-tier until he starts inventing other uses for it. Especially noticeable when Luffy goes up against [[ShockAndAwe God Eneru]], as due to his rubber body not conducting electricity Luffy was probably one of the few people on the planet who could've defeated him without needing a high level of [[KiManipulation Haki]]. Luffy also gets particularly clever with his abilities by taking advantage of the fact that his ''entire'' body, including heart, blood vessels, and bones, are all rubber. For his "Gear Second" technique he pumps his blood flow to a pressure level that would kill any normal human, giving him SuperSpeed. For "Gear Third" he inflates his bones to [[MightyGlacier increase his hitting power significantly, at the cost of speed]]. [[spoiler:And for Gear Fourth, he combines all of these, inflating his muscles as with Gear Third, and pumping not just his blood, but his entire body, Gear Second-style, and combining all of these with every side technique he already has. The result can only be described as [[OverlyNarrowSuperlative the most destructive balloon mankind will ever see.]]]]
** The [=CP9=] were this for Zoan-type Fruit users (ability to turn into an animal) since until then animal powers were rather lackluster compared to most Paramecia (get a super power) and all Logia (become a nigh-invincible force of nature). Until then the only notable Zoan user was Chopper who had to use special medicines to tap into different forms in order to fight effectively. But the [=CP9=] leader points out that Zoan fruits also grant the user extra animal-like strength and alter their bodies (like growing claws) and since all of [=CP9=] were highly powerful martial artists, in their hands Zoan Fruits became utterly terrifying by making already powerful fighters that much stronger. That is, Paramecia and Logia powers are additive, whereas Zoan powers are multiplicative: They can't make a weak person strong, but they can make a strong person even stronger. Nowhere in the series is this more evident than the Animal Kingdom Pirates, a whole ''fleet'' of Zoan-type users who have taken over huge chunks of the New World and is led by Kaido, a Zoan user said to be the "[[NamesToRunAwayfromReallyFast King of the Beasts]]."
*** Kaku boasts about gaining the power to turn into a ''[[http://imgup.motion-twin.com/dinorpg/a/9/c432b03a_1163042.jpg giraffe]]'' AND becomes more powerful thanks to it. When he reveals his power, ''everybody in the room'' laughs at it (including ''his own teammate'') despite him warning them not to underestimate the destructive power of the giraffe. When they persist, he gets angry and combines his power with his Tempest Kick to ''cut the Tower of Justice in half from the inside.''
*** Further proof of the power of Zoans: when Kaido decided he needed to turn the balance of power between the Four Emperors of the New World in his favor, despite his personal belief that [[SupernaturalMartialArts Haki]] is the greatest of all powers, the plan he came up with was creating mass-produced Zoan fruits to power up his underlings. Even though what he got was a ShoddyKnockOffProduct, he was still confident that a few hundred watered down Zoans would be the edge he needed.
** Paramecia powers (which includes the protagonist's RubberMan abilities) are perhaps the greatest example in the series. They don't have a straightforward concept like [[ElementalEmbodiment Logia]] or [[{{Animorphism}} Zoan]] fruits, allowing for the most outside-the-box thinking and diversity in the application of a single fruit's powers:
*** Scratchmen Apoo can control sound effects, thanks to the large number of onomatopoeia in Japanese, he can do such things as ''cut anything or anyone that can possibly be cut'' under normal conditions.
*** Wapol can merge anything into his body by eating it; as one result, [[CutLexLuthorACheck he invented a metal so useful]] he was ''reappointed a lesser king by the World Nobles''.
*** Brook accidentally combined the power "to not die ''once''" with getting lost, with the result being functional immortality and inhuman abilities including a weaponized GhostlyChill and soul control good enough to perform astral projection and exorcisms in the blink of an eye, not to mention his new skeletal form is so lightweight as to allow for SuperSpeed and completely immune to a variety of attacks.
*** Bartholomew Kuma, with the ability to push things, is one of the most powerful characters in the story, especially since his power includes the ability to push abstract concepts like pain and exhaustion.
*** Baroque Works Member Mr. 3's power allows him to create an endless supply of candle wax from his body. He was also able to make this wax hard as steel and make keys out of it, but its greatest use didn't come in until he [[spoiler:used it to stop the flow of the Warden Magellan's impossibly corrosive and utterly deadly poisonous flood]]. He's is a stand-out example, as he was ranked higher than Mr. 5, who has a much more impressive power (being a living bomb) because Mr. 5 was "some idiot with a devil fruit" while 3 put effort into actually mastering his.
** Donquixote Doflamingo's String-String Fruit allows him to create strings, which doesn't seem that powerful until you consider he can make them thin enough to cut most material, ''and most people'', and have it be almost invisible. This culminates with [[spoiler:the birdcage, a dome of thin string large enough to surround an entire island and, as it closes on itself, cut almost everything in its path, including entire buildings]]. The second main use of his string is to [[MeatPuppet use it to manipulate the movement of one or multiple people]], an ability he can use to make someone unwillingly fight for him, or frame someone for a crime he didn't commit. Doflamingo also uses his Devil Fruit to create a [[BodyDouble string clone of himself]], or make a rope with hundreds of strings and use their friction to set it on fire. All of these abilities end up making Doflamingo one of the toughest enemies of the manga.
*** In the Doflamingo Pirates, we also have [[spoiler:Sugar, a little girl who ate the Hobby Hobby Fruit. It gives her the ability to turn people and animals into [[LivingToy Living Toys]]. The secondary abilities of the fruit are what really make it shine. It also allows Sugar to create verbal contracts that essentially {{brainwash|ed}} the toys into doing whatever she wants and there's nothing they can do about it. Anyone that knew who the toys were before their transformations will ''[[LaserGuidedAmnesia forget all about them]]'', so it's not like their families or friends will seek revenge. The Hobby Hobby Fruit also halts the aging process the moment they eat it, so [[TheAgeless Sugar isn't really a "little girl"]]. And all it takes to become a toy is by lightly touching the victim, no matter how strong they are. Sugar is far from a powerhouse, but if this fruit was consumed by a LightningBruiser in his/her prime, it could easily be a StoryBreakerPower]].
*** Also from Doflamingo Pirates, Diamante's power is Flutter-Flutter Fruit, which allows him to flatten and convert anything into clothlike form, which can then be returned to normal at his convenience. While it's never shown whether he can actually do this to enemy combatants, he can do it to himself thus allowing him to dodge most physical damages. The biggest sell of the fruit though is that it allows him to become a WalkingArmory, loaded with tons of various weapons in compact form, culminating with a series of confetti launchers which launch tons of confetti into the air.... [[DeathFromAbove which are really heavy spiked balls.]] The flattened items keep their properties, such as Diamante's cape actually being a ''block of metal'' he affected as well as being able to change the shape of his sword (he made it into a club and may even be denser than it looks like the block.) Diamante can also apply his powers to the ground -- while he can't flatten it, he can still make it ripple and billow like cloth, limiting his opponents' mobility.
*** Donquixote Rocinante has the Calm-Calm Fruit, which allows him to do things silently or create spherical regions around him where no sound can get in or out. Although he uses it for its direct purposes of telling things to people without letting anyone else know and to get undisturbed sleep, he shows what the power of silence can ''really'' do when he storms Diez Barrels's hideout: He effortlessly enters, shoots out the lights, grabs what he wants, and leaves causing a lot of destruction and injured bodies around him that nobody notices until it's too late. Because gunshots are silent inside his sphere of influence, as are the screams of the people he shoots. It's the perfect power for an assassin. He also uses this ability to securely sneak Trafalgar Law out of the area and into the Navy's custody, where he'll be safe.
** In a more literal version of this trope, the author states that Sanji is able to set his leg ablaze without hurting it because [[ItRunsOnNonsensoleum his heart burns hotter]].
** Nami's Tempo, before it was upgraded, was basically a party gag that she managed to rework into being able to create lightning and summon storms, among other weather control capabilities which only improved further as time went on. Even without taking storm-brewing and [[spoiler:the newly defected [[CumuloNemesis Zeus]]]] into account, there's quite a few powers out there that get severely weakened in a downpour, which saved the crew's asses more than once during Totto Land.
** Most of the Charlotte family have [[FoodBasedSuperpowers food-related abilities]], which are generally just as dangerous as the more conventional powers among the family.
*** Charlotte Cracker can create and control biscuits. This, apparently, allows him to create and control [[spoiler:a living suit of armor, made entirely out of them. This suit looks indistinguishable from a real human (by One Piece standards at least) and is strong and durable]] enough to give Luffy a hard time. In fact, Luffy had to go into [[SuperMode Gear Fourth]] to crack him open... and then Cracker [[spoiler:easily creates ''five of them''. Even better, since he doesn't have a limit to how many biscuits he can make, he theoretically can just keep creating more and more supersoldiers in place of destroyed ones as long as he wants. The only weakness he has is they're still entirely edible, even if super-hard. With just a bit of water, the biscuits soften up like normal, which is a bit of a problem with a high-capacity BigEater like Luffy, especially when he has a weather-conjuring crew member like Nami]].
--->'''Cracker:''' I simply control my perfectly crafted masterpieces and make new ones, if the situation calls for it! That's the power and beauty of my biscuits -- saying that my strength is limitless doesn't do it justice! [[spoiler:It took you everything you had just to defeat one guy, who was nothing more than one of the infinite amount of biscuits I have at my beck and call...]] I literally only have to lift a single finger!
*** Sibling and fellow Sweet Commander Katakuri has the power to create, manipulate, and become mochi (or rather, the sticky rice dough used to make mochi), and while he can't quite create soldiers out of them, he easily puts most Logias in the manga to shame and even makes the Admirals look a bit unimaginative, easily creating gigantic striking limbs with size only limited by his desires, tanking blows while looking like he actually got damaged, entrap enemies and even ''imitate Luffy's techniques except better'' just using carefully-manipulated mochi, among other uses in an absurdly huge repertoire. And while it's also edible, it's significantly harder to eat due to the rate of production (not to mention Luffy doesn't like eating mochi, probably because his own RubberMan status means it's harder for him to chew), and Katakuri can always fall back on (and combine this power with) his top-tier CharlesAtlasSuperpower if needed. Little surprise he was Luffy's strongest opponent up to that point and really shown how much he needed to improve. [[spoiler:Luffy still wins by virtue of being more endurable than Katakuri and also earning the Commander's respect.]]
*** Charlotte Smoothie is a lesser example, but still here. Her Juice-Juice Fruit allows her to wring juice out of things (including people). While her main use of this power is [[MundaneUtility making tasty beverages for Big Mom's parties]], she can also do things like wring poison out of herself and use absorbed juice to [[AttackOfThe50FootWhatever grow to colossal size]]. Plus, her fruit can be a swift death of anyone she grabs.

** The Tsuchikage has Dust Release as his bloodline power. No, not blasting people with dust like Gaara does with sand, ''creating'' dust by [[DisintegratorRay pulverizing everything in its area of effect]]. Dust Style has been translated as Particle Style, and one of these abilities creates a massive explosion. It's not dust. It's molecules, atoms, and a nuclear explosion.

* ''Anime/{{Scryed}}'': Give Urizane a watermelon and he has an ImaginationBasedSuperpower because he can use that watermelon for anything.

** Best Jeanist has power over fibers. Not only can he easily restrain any opponent who wears clothes (which is pretty much all of them), he can make the threads of his own clothes so thin they're nearly invisible and strong enough to take on Nomu. Not to mention how it, as seen in the spin-off ''Vigilantes'', carries traits of a SemanticSuperpower, meaning that he can control ''any'' kind of fibers with it, as evident with how he manipulates metallic wires made from fibers to form a support structure for a collapsing building. He's the fourth-highest-ranked hero in Japan for a ''reason''.

* ''LightNovel/ACertainMagicalIndex'':
** We have Fiamma of the Right, one of the most powerful characters in the series, outclassing monstrosities such as [[spoiler:a fully-awakened Accelerator]]. His power? [[HolyHandGrenade "The Holy Right"]], the ability to use all other Biblical abilities relating to the right hand. Lame? This is the ability that allows him to ''destroy an entire city'' in one fell swoop, teleport instantaneously to another location, and create a {{Flaming|Sword}} {{BFS}} '''''forty kilometers in length'''''.
** Similarly, we have Terra of the Left, whose ability "God's Medicine" lets him... change any object's precedence. Which he uses by raising the precedence of grains of flour until they're sharp enough to cut through any substance and raising or lowering his own precedence so that he can be invulnerable or intangible respectively. Aside from a few kinks to work out, it is ''very'' useful.
** Cendrillon has the power of ''Literature/{{Cinderella}}''. This gives her incredible speed and agility to casually dodge a cluster bomb strike (based on Cinderella's dancing and the pumpkin carriage) and lets her ''remotely [[BodyHorror mutilate the feet]]'' of anybody with a different shoe size than her. After all, she can do anything that has to do with the story of Cinderella.
** Kaibi Gosukai can regulate the distance between peoples' hearts. Which she can use to confuse enemies by making her distance identical to someone else's. For example, when [[spoiler:Shiage points a gun at her, she makes her heart identical to Rikou's, causing Shiage to hesitate pulling the trigger. Objectively, Shiage knows Measure Heart is different from Rikou, but his heart is telling him he's targeting Rikou]].

* Recognizing this is one of the defining traits of King Souma in ''LightNovel/HowARealistHeroRebuiltTheKingdom''. Where others see nothing, he sees great potential.
** Others saw Poncho as a noble who wasted his money traveling to eat weird foods, while Souma saw him as crucial to helping find new food sources during the kingdom's food crisis.
** Tomoe seemed like just one of many WarRefugees, but Souma saw that her ability to talk to animals and demons made her one of the most important people in the country.
** Ginger seemed like a bad slave trader, wasting his money educating them before selling them off. Souma made Ginger the headmaster of a new school, helping educate more than just the nobles in the country, a step in eliminating the practice of slavery entirely.
** Naden Delal was a dragon who had no wings and couldn't breathe fire. Souma recognized she was an Eastern-style ryuu and could still fly, that her control of electricity was more useful than breathing fire, and most importantly of all, that she could predict the weather, allowing the kingdom to have reliable weather forecasts.
** Ichiha Chima was the weird, sickly kid in a family where everyone else was renowned for their skills and good looks. Everyone else thought Ichiha just had a weird hobby of drawing monsters, while Souma recognized that Ichiha had come up with a classification system, allowing more effective fighting against monsters in dungeons and along the border of the Demon Lord's Domain.

* Kazuma from ''LightNovel/KonoSuba'' never changed his class from Adventurer, which is the beginner class, to another more powerful class. While he can learn basic magic spells, they are pretty worthless and more so for party tricks, and he would normally need to change class to learn more advanced magic and skills. However, he discovers that he can learn advanced spells (which cost him a lot of skill points) from every other class, even ones that shouldn't be learned, as most people never stayed as Adventurer long enough to find out that information. He also has extremely high luck, allowing him to steal powerful weapons (and girls' panties) without fail. While he can't use the weapons due to his class and level, he can sell them for a high price. His basic magic also counts, like how he's able to use a simple freeze water spell to cause his foes to slip and fall, leaving them open for major attacks from other party members.

* Several Magical Girls in ''LightNovel/MagicalGirlRaisingProject'' have powers that sound lame and weak at first but are actually very powerful with some creativity or by taking them to their logical conclusion.
** Tama has the ability to create holes on any surface she scratches. It has a few uses such as burying trash or laying a trap, but it seems pretty weak overall. Until she realizes she can use also tunnel through living matter, meaning she can instantly kill anyone she can scratch.
** Rain Pou can create rainbow bridges, [[HardLight solid beams of light]] that people can easily run on. Or they can be used to stab through anything -- including other Magical Girls -- silently and act as near unbreakable shields.
** Prism Cherry can change the reflected surfaces of any mirror-like objects, an ability she frequently bemoans as useless. But it turns out her ''actual'' ability is the manipulation of light reflected by mirrors, which enables her to blind enemies and provide a power battery to power Marika with.
** Filuru's ability is to sew through anything with her magic needles and thread. Doesn't sound impressive at first, but her threads are near invisible, near unbreakable, go through people like anything else, and don't hurt anything, allowing her to easily restrain people, create makeshift weapons, and lay a variety of traps.
** Marika Fukuroi blooms magical flowers on her head. She's figured out how to make those flowers shoot laser beams, emit a variety of poisons and healing fruits, create a variety of deadly weapons, and more. Needless to say, no one makes fun of her despite her ability's lame description.
** Snow White initially has the superficially lame ability to hear the thoughts of people who are in distress. That is, until she realizes she can literally hear anyone that's experiencing distress. Even if it's a bad guy attempting to sweet talk his way out of a sticky situation.

* Koyomi in ''LightNovel/ModernMagicMadeSimple'' has the ability to summon washbasins, and cannot do anything else. Any spell she tries to use turn into a basin. It seems like a lame power at first, until everyone around her realizes that it can transform ''any'' spell, regardless of who cast it or how powerful it is, effectively giving her a universal PowerNullifier. Koyomi herself never actually catches onto this.

* In ''LightNovel/RedoOfHealer'', everyone in the fantasy world believes that the healer class is the weakest and that healers cannot do anything alone. However, there's a rare variant of each class called [hero] which can take a normal class well beyond its limits. Most assume that this just means that the person who possesses the [hero] variant simply have way more potential and power than the normal version. Then the main character shows everyone that the [hero] class variant can also expand the abilities of a class categorically. Since his class is Healing[hero], he has absolute control over everything that has to do with healing and the body. He can alter his own physical attributes at will (increase strength as the expense of speed for instance), can alter the physical appearances of others, can read minds through touch or erase memories, copy physical skills, drain energy, to the point where the ability to heal becomes the ability to restructure. Hell, he was able to go back in time by using an artifact to "heal" the world, i.e. from his point of view, the world was sick so he went back in time to "fix" it.
* ''LightNovel/TheRisingOfTheShieldHero'': From the get-go, everybody writes off Naofumi's Legendary Weapon as useless for its defense and support-oriented abilities. But as any MMO player will attest to, defense and support classes are ''vital'' to getting anywhere. Due to its inherent ability to change forms, Naofumi still has access to abilities you wouldn't immediately expect from a support tank, such as using shield-shaped barriers as platforms and surprise traps, containing targets in domes made of chained shields, deploying poison vipers, and vicious biting dog heads on attackers, draining MP and SP, and [[spoiler: unleashing hate-powered cursed flames and torture devices on unfortunate enemies. Though, in the capital's case, they might have known that the Legendary Shield wasn't nearly as useless as the other Heroes stupidly believed it was, but still acted that way to the point of actively refusing, and even trying to handicap Naofumi anyway due to the inherent bigotry towards those who worshipped the "weapon".]] On top of that, the Shield's own drawbacks end up helping Naofumi, as it forces him to pick up other non-combat skills in order to survive, preventing him from further falling into CripplingOverspecialization.

* In ''LightNovel/UnlimitedFafnir'', Yuu's ability to summon a handgun seems a bit pitiful compared to the girls being able to cast devastating spells and attacks. However, said gun proves useful against human targets, and he is also able to summon a WaveMotionGun, which comes in very handy for defeating dragons with.

* In Soukyuu no Shihaisha: Isekai ni Tensei shitara Sekai no oppai wa Ore no mono!, the main character Hanakizawa Haruzawa is given by a goddess the power called "Double Sky Leader", which grants him the power to control breasts. While a seemingly ridiculous power and utterly useless on men, it means that he can cause breasts to suddenly move, forcing women to turn, fall, or move at his will, and can even immobilize women by making their breasts impossibly heavy. It's a power he literally describes as having control of half the world (Since half the world is female), especially since there's a large number of female knights, adventurers, and demons that regularly oppose him. Early on, he uses this power to destroy a curse that was bound to a tattoo on a woman's chest, since it was on her breasts and therefore within the domain of his powers.

* In ''LightNovel/ArifuretaFromCommonplaceToWorldsStrongest'', Hajime Nagumo's class is transported to another world, where all of them are granted amazing powers... save for Nagumo, who has the Synergist class, mostly considered a glorified blacksmith. Then, he is betrayed by a classmate, drops to the depths of the labyrinth they were exploring... and, from the sheer will to survive, his experimentation leads to him discovering how truly overpowered his class can be if he has access to enough materials. It's also his basic power (transmuting rock) this that lets him find the Divinity Stone, which produces a liquid that ends up helping him survive eating monster flesh - and that boosts all of his stats beyond the strongest of his classmates, as well as grants him new powers.

* All of the humans in ''Literature/FromTheNewWorld'' are extremely powerful, able to [[MindOverMatter toss huge objects around with their minds]] and [[PlayingWithFire generate arbitrary amounts of fire]]. In addition to this, Satoru has the seemingly unusual ability to create floating mirrors. This may not sound impressive, but it turns out to be very useful for looking around corners and concealment. He saves lives with his weird floating mirrors multiple times.
* ''LightNovel/FullClearingAnotherWorldUnderAGoddessWithZeroBelievers'' has Mokota with 'Calm Mind'. At first, the skill 'Calm Mind' seems like a useless skill but Noah pointed out that with 'Calm Mind' Makoto won't panic in battle or get over confident when fighting a monster. Not only that, but 'Calm Mind' also protects him from spells that causes fear or mind control.

* ''HeartIsAnAwesomePower/JoJosBizarreAdventure''
