These examples of Surprisingly Realistic Outcome seem to violate at least one of these rules, which disqualifies them: No character reactions (characters get angry, don't forgive, don't change their personality instantly, etc.); Too fantastical (depends on the properties of magic, powers, sci-fi tech, monsters, etc.); Not surprising (a character was warned about the outcome, it's used to provide Karma or An Aesop, or it simply follows normal conventions for this genre or medium); Plot happens (the example only describes an event, but not why audiences would expect a different, unrealistic outcome); Not an outcome (a character just explains why something wouldn't work as expected); More of a Deconstruction (the event has major, lasting effects on the plot, make something more realistic, but not completely realistic, or a parody/fanwork applies realistic consequences to the events of a different work); or fits better under a different trope. See the trope's definition for more details. If you believe a removal was a mistake, please bring it up in the cleanup thread.

* PragmaticAdaptation: Since the activation of Pandora's Box would likely set off massive alarm bells for the Mages Association, most of the alien elements of ''Series/KamenRiderBuild'' have been modified into being relatively more mundane (the three governments are now corporations, for example). Additionally, the activation of Pandora's Box has been substituted with the Fuyuki Fire, as both happen ten years prior to their respective series' main plot. That being said, Shirou's explanation to Rin about Build and the S.M.A.S.H. confirms that Pandora's Box still exists, since it is too important to the Build side of the story to adapt out.
