History HeroicBSOD / WesternAnimation

* In the ''{{Recess}}'' episode "I Play Kickball No More!", Vince underwent a ''massive'' HeroicBSOD (of the severe depression type) after his best kick was not only beaten out, but beaten out by an Ashley, who not only doesn't even regularly play Kickball, but isn't even playing it seriously (she basically kicked it all the way to Communist China non-chalantly while she was speaking on her cell phone.). It literally had to take TJ and his friends some severe talks to Vince (as well as almost faking out his kick to making him feel better with a more bouncy ball than usual) to not only get him out of the HeroicBSOD, but also for him to manage in doing an unprecedented account of kicking the ball outside of the stratosphere.

* Numbuh One from ''CodenamKidsNextDoor'' had one in [[TheMovie ''Operation Z.E.R.O.'']] when he realized that [[spoiler: his rashness had sent him straight into a trap set by Father and helped resurrect the ultimate evil Grandfather]]. It took a peptalk from (of all people) Numbuh 101 to get him moving again.

* ''DC Showcase: Superman/Shazam: The Return of Black Adam'' had Billy Batson suffer one of these after Black Adam offered him a [[TheSadisticChoice sadistic choice]] between his own life and the life of a hostage. Adam then attempts to kill both Billy and the hostage, and would have succeeded if Superman hadn't interfered. The BSOD only lasted for a few moments tho, and after it passed, well, one magic word later [[CurbStompBattle it got REALLY ugly for Adam]].

* Mr. Krabs, in the ''SpongebobSquarepants'' episode "One Krab's Trash," has a HeroicBSOD when he hears how much his drinking cap is worth.

** The first time he voluntarily accesses the Avatar State leads to ManipulativeBitch [[TheEvilPrince Princess Azula]] [[DangerouslyGenreSavvy shooting him with a killer dose of lightning]] InTheBack [[DangerouslyGenreSavvy during his]] TransformationSequence ([[PowerFloats particularly after it results in him floating in the air out of the ice cocoon he made to protect himself]]). This of course induces [[ActionGirl Katara]]'s HeroicBSOD.

* ''{{Avatar the Last Airbender}}'' does this a lot, in particular with Aang. When he goes through BSOD, he goes into the Avatar State. The most memerable is when he [[spoiler: finds Gyasto's skeleton, surrounded by Fire Nation soldiers]].

* Cody suffers from this in TotalDramaWorldTour when his ride to Hawaii is destroyed.[[CrowningMomentOfHeartwarming Sierra snaps him out of it.]]

* Gadget Hackwrench ''(ChipAndDaleRescueRangers)'' has one in part 3 of the FiveEpisodePilot after the plane she pilots crashes in Glacier Bay. She laments that she won't be as good as her father Geegaw Hackwrench, but in part 4, [[IGotBetter she gets better]], and saves the other Rangers with the plane she re-modeled into the flying detergent bottle/balloon mecha we recognize throughout the series.

* Suffered by Leonardo (''[[WesternAnimation/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtles2003 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles]]'' 2003) twice. The first time occurs after he is badly beaten and almost killed by the Foot Clan, which leaves him comatose and melancholy afterwards. The second time occurs after the turtles are handily defeated and have to resort to sacrificing themselves just to stop the BigBad from winning. This necessity is fortunately prevented, but just the idea that the situation got [[ItGotWorse that bad]] disturbs Leonardo. As the [[BigBrotherComplex Big Brother]], he blames himself for failing his family and goes into a self-destructive spiral, training obsessively, forcing his brothers to do likewise, and being surly and moody in general. [[spoiler: It takes 13 episodes of not listening to Splinter, a literal journey, and a Star Wars-esque "yourself behind the Vader mask" moment to get Leonardo to recover his senses.]]
