16* ''Manga/{{Berserk}}'': "THIS IS -- [[ThisMeansWar A DECLARATION OF WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRR!!]]"
17* ''Manga/{{Bleach}}'' subverts this. Most of the time, yelling "BANKAI!" does not come with emphasis. But Ichigo, in some medias, does put emphasis in form of "BAN! KAI!!"
18** Mayuri's release when fighting Uryru was a rather understated "Ban. Kai." This made it ''creepier.''
19** Isshin likes to do this as well. '''"GOOOOOOOOD! MOOOOOOOOOOOOOORNING! IIIIIIIIIIICHIGOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"'''
20** In the dub of Episode 13, when Tatsuki attacks some Hollow-controlled students to protect Orihime, she yells "WHAT THE HELL -- ARE YOU -- PEOPLE -- DOING?!"

40* The Creator/FourKidsEntertainment dub of ''Manga/OnePiece'' from "You Dirty Rat!": [[PunctuatedPounding LEAVE! * throws sand* LEAVE! * throws sand* LEAVE! * throws sand* LEAVE! * throws sand*]]
41** That actually happens in the original version. We also have Luffy's line after beating Arlong: '''NAMI! YOU'RE MY NAKAMA!!!!'''.
42* ''Manga/FullmetalAlchemist'': [[MamaBear "I'M. A. HOUSEWIFE!!!"]]

54* Father Anderson in ''Manga/{{Hellsing}}'': "ALUCAAARD! VAMPIIIIRE!"

56*** And Jan in the anime: "BEWARE...THE...MILLENNIUM...!"
