* Tsuba is a straight example.
* Naruto is a straight example.
* Inheritance Cycle is a straight example.
* Thor's hammer is not a PowerLimiter. It's more like a MagicFeather; Thor was therefore not directly impeded by having his hammer (nor, as it turns out, by not having it). Thor was not trained physically by the hammer in any regard, but limiting him to using his powers only when he has the hammer teaches him control (as Odin said), which makes it a form of mental training, but not physical.
* God Of War is not an example. Atreus's disease limits his abilities, but this wasn't in any way intentional. He simply can't access these abilities while the disease is in play. A straight example would be if he intentionally de-powered himself and then made use of the abilities anyway.
* Mulan is either an inversion or a SecretTestOfCharacter; the seeming impediments were actually the means to complete the training. A straight example of this would be if they were simply expected to climb the pole with weights tied to their wrists, or while Shang stood at the top throwing rocks down at them, or something along those lines.
