* At the end of ''Anime/RebuildOfEvangelion 2.0'', [[spoiler:Shinji and Unit 01 have started Near-Third Impact and are spoken of as things beyond any ever seen. Then Kaworu stops that by dropping a lance on Unit 01 from above. It's revealed in 3.0 however, that Kaworu wasn't able to stop Third Impact as a whole, thus killing off a good chunk of humanity.]]

* Masaru of ''Anime/DigimonDataSquad'' literally punches out a god. As an ''encore''. The punch ''shatters'' said god. And that ''still'' isn't the most ridiculous of his punches. Throughout the series, Masaru frequently punched giant Digimon and actually harmed them, to the point where he was literally incapable of making Agumon evolve without first punching a Digimon. His father Suguru was shown to do pretty much the same thing in a flashback, and the two are the only human characters to do anything like that.

** [[spoiler:Masaru returns in the finale of ''Young Hunters'', and his debut involves ''falling from the sky and punching [=VenomMyotismon=] in the face.'' Notably, he's the only human in the entire group to actually get up and join in the fight (unless you count [[Anime/DigimonTamers Takato]] and [[Anime/DigimonFrontier Takuya]] while they're in Digimon form). He and Shoutmon ''kill'' two [=MaloMyotismon=] with two punches.]]

* In ''Anime/Scryed'', after [[spoiler:being thrown into The Other Side, Mujo]] comes back with a borderline better form, proclaiming that his lifelong hunger for power is finally satisfied. The heroes... are unimpressed.

added the yugioh example of diabound.

Added DiffLines:

** Played the straightest in the manga version of the Millennium World arc, when Osiris was an actual PhysicalGod as opposed to a trading card bound to the rules of the game. Diabound, a normal ka powered only by its creator's hatred, was able to defeat a literal deity through [[CombatPragmatist dirty tactics]], and later managed to [[spoiler: copy it's abilities.]] Diabound's actual defeat probably qualified as this as well, seeing as by that point it had evolved to the point of being objectively stronger than Osiris or Obelisk (probably), and was defeated without the use of any of the Gods.
