* In ''Anime/DragonBallZ'', as Goku [[DavidVersusGoliath fights a losing battle against Frieza,]] at one point he's forced underwater, and seems to drown and stop struggling. However, this trope comes into play as the faces of his friends flash before his eyes, giving him the motivation to break Frieza's grip and continue the fight.
* ''Manga/SamuraiDeeperKyo'' makes particularly gratuitous use of this.
* ''Manga/TsubasaReservoirChronicle'' gave one to Syaoran, [[MindScrew I think--I think]].
* In ''Manga/Reborn2004'':
** Tsuna had one.
** The effect of the Rebuke/Insult Shot is basically this, triggering a Calm Fury.
* Sesshomaru in the climax of ''Anime/InuYashaTheMovieSwordsOfAnHonorableRuler'' (third movie) Despite the fact that he denies "having anyone to protect". The manga had the theme since midway through the arc where Inu Yasha acquired Tessaiga, but didn't belabor it.
* ''Anime/{{Naruto}}'':
** Naruto does this in....well, basically every fight he gets in.
** The Third Hokage does this before preparing to use [[DangerousForbiddenTechnique Reaper Death Seal]] on Orochimaru, declaring that the entire village of Konoha is his family.
* ''Anime/YuGiOh'':
** In the Noa Arc of the anime, this gives Anzu the courage to cross a rickety rope bridge to escape from some monsters that wanted to eat her.
** This continues well into ''[[Anime/YuGiOhGX GX]]'' as well. The best example is easily [[spoiler:at the final moments of season 3's final showdown when Judai flashes back to everyone he's ever befriended at Duel Academy]], though that was more along the lines of "This one's for you, everybody."
