  • Before making a single edit, Tropedia EXPECTS our site policy and manual of style to be followed. Failure to do so may result in deletion of contributions and blocks of users who refuse to learn to do so. Our policies can be reviewed here.
  • All images MUST now have proper attribution, those who neglect to assign at least the "fair use" licensing to an image may have it deleted. All new pages should use the preloadable templates feature on the edit page to add the appropriate basic page markup. Pages that don't do this will be subject to deletion, with or without explanation.
  • All new trope pages will be made with the "Trope Workshop" found on the "Troper Tools" menu and worked on until they have at least three examples. The Trope workshop specific templates can then be removed and it will be regarded as a regular trope page after being moved to the Main namespace. THIS SHOULD BE WORKING NOW, REPORT ANY ISSUES TO Janna2000, SelfCloak or RRabbit42. DON'T MAKE PAGES MANUALLY UNLESS A TEMPLATE IS BROKEN, AND REPORT IT THAT IS THE CASE. PAGES WILL BE DELETED OTHERWISE IF THEY ARE MISSING BASIC MARKUP.

  • One of the characters is facing a powerful alien that is made of several naked women who combine together to form a giant naked woman. He gets pulled into her and is about to be crushed to death by dozens of naked women. So what does he do? He uses the last of his willpower to pull himself out, climbs up the alien, and forces it to give him a blowjob. Awesome.
    • And also Squick.
  • In the dinosaur mission, Kurono managed to kill two fire spitting T-Rexes, a handful of raptors and a boss that gave Izumi a run for his money, all without his suit.
    • Given that arc lasted several volumes in total, it helps to be more specific. The definite highlight of that story (for Kurono at least) was when he fell off the bike right in front of one of the T-Rexes that had been chasing him. Everyone thinks he's doomed and screams for him to run. Instead, he remembers what he's fighting for, faces down the T-Rex and screams his defiance at it in an extended rant that makes it clear that, despite being at the time nothing more than a Badass Normal facing a giant fire-breathing killing-machine, he's not even considering the possibility of dying. Even the T-Rex is impressed. After that, even the actual fight itself can't compare:

 Kurono: I'm immortal! I can't lose!! I'll never lose!! I am immortal! I'm immortal! Immortal! I won't lose! I'm immortal! Get over here! You can't beat me!! The one who will die is you!

    • The Old Man got his ultimate CMoAs in the same game. Although he'd already had a minor one when he tested the powers of the suit for the first time, grabbing a baby dinosaur (which still would have weighed several tonnes) by the tail and throwing it like it weighed nothing at all, at the climax of the arc he saves Kurono's life by grabbing the tail of the ultimate enemy in that game, the baby's mother which was over 100 meters tall and would have weighed well in excess of 1000 tonnes. Digging his feet into the concrete, he actually holds it in place long enough for Kurono to deliver the deathblow.
  • In the Dinosaur Arc, Daizaemon Kaze, without the use of his suit, started punching raptors to death.
  • Sakata's Dying Moment of Awesome in the Osaka arc (which doubles as a Tear Jerker). After discussing the implications of continued resurrection and deciding that if he dies he wants to stay dead, Sakata saves the group from Nurarihyon by holding it back with so much psychic power that his life force is burned out to nothing in seconds. And as the rest of the group scatters -

  • Behold! Starting at about 2:15.
  • Takeshi beating up tons of aliens in the Osaka arc despite being a toddler with no fighting skills. Maybe he absorbed some residual awesome that Kaze gives off.
    • He's using all the same moves that Kaze does! Imitating his hero, Muscle Rider! That made it an /extra/ awesome CMoA.
  • The Nerdy Virgin (no name given) manages to survive the Italian Mission after all his teammates leave and is left with a little girl. He earns enough points to fufill his promise of reviving Anzu
  • Inaba finally gets his in the latest arc of Gantz by wiping out an entire wave of enemies and a sub-boss which have already been proven to be strong enough to easily destroy the strongest Gantz teams in the world. This wouldn't have been a big deal if it was done by Kurono but hey, come on, it's Inaba. Of course, being Gantz this trope is horribly subverted and Inaba is crushed to death just moments after the rest of the group find him.
    • Not to mention the moment preceding it. Inaba is surrounded by aliens and facing seemingly certain death, when the old man leaps out of nowhere with guns blazing and sacrifices his life to ensure Inaba's safety and tell him to never stop shooting. Upon realizing that the old man was the only person in their group who ever really cared for him, Inaba steps up and starts mowing down aliens, fighting seriously for the first and last time.
  • Reika gets a very subtle CMOA in the latest chapter when she jumps from 0 points to 100 in a single mission when most of the gantz team didnt get a single point in that mission. Remember that its considered next to impossible to get over 50 in a single mission.
  • Kurono reinforces his Badass credentials when he singlehandedly takes down a squadron of the giant aliens.
  • Until chapter 350 it looked like the giant skeletal alien...things were going to slaughter Klone Kurono and his team, but they only needed to find their weak spot to completely annihilate them in 15 SECONDS!
