* ''Series/AvataroSentaiDonbrothers'': During the show's last two episodes, [[spoiler: Taro's memories of the past year have been progressively resetting; his mission as Don Momotaro considered complete]]. The finale sees him forgetting everyone bit-by-bit until Kaito gives him a copy of Haruka's manga and asks him to read it. In the final battle later, Don Momotaro re-appears and orders everyone to start a role call. When his turn comes up, a period of tense silence follows before the memories return in-full; symbolized by text retroactively appearing on the manga he'd read earlier.



* In the [[Recap/WandaVisionEpisode9TheSeriesFinale last episode]] of ''Series/WandaVision'', Wanda's magical construct of Vision unlocks the repressed memories of the real Vision (now repurposed into an emotionless weapon by S.W.O.R.D.). A brief montage of Vision's memories plays as this happens, using footage from ''Film/AvengersAgeOfUltron'', ''Film/CaptainAmericaCivilWar'' and ''Film/AvengersInfinityWar''.

* In the Atonement Arc of ''VisualNovel/WhenTheyCry'', Keiichi gets a variation of this. Technically, the memories aren't his, but those of a Keiichi in a different timeline, but the result is that he remembers his actions in the Demoned Away Arc (i.e. murdering two of his best friends out of paranoia). What's more the memories that this Keiichi has are shorn of the hallucinations that Keiichi was dealing with (e.g. the "syringe" he's threatened with is shown to be a marker). He has a quick emotional breakdown upon remembering this.
