Also compare MomentOfLucidity, when a character's sanity is restored for only a temporary period, and ThrowingOffTheDisability.

* In ''VideoGame/FateGrandOrder'', Caligula in Proper Human History was [[{{Lunacy}} driven mad by the affection of the Moon Goddess, Diana]], which is his Madness Enhancement as a Berserker. During the Olympus Lostbelt, [[spoiler:it's revealed that Lostbelt Artemis tried to use the same power to drive the Heroic Spirits summoned by the Counter Force insane... and picks Caligula as her first target because of his connection to Diana, Artemis's Roman counterpart. Her efforts causes a ReversePolarity effect that makes him level-headed and sane. He can still use his Noble Phantasm, which drives others insane (or in one case, counteract against madness spread by Lostbelt Aphrodite)]].
