** ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyVIBraveNewWorld'' exists because the developers thought the Esper system of the original game turned the party members into different looking Ultima spam machines, which they then set out to rework by restricting what characters use which Espers, with only 2 characters per Esper (and in some cases 1) being the standard. Terra is the only one who can use Ultima, and even then only at the final dungeon.

* Back during UsefulNotes/{{the Silver Age|of Comic Books}}, Franchise/{{Superman}} and Franchise/TheFlash were almost equally fast, with the Flash only winning a race with Superman after two draws. Modern comics have made the Flash much faster than Superman to balance out Superman having a lots of other superpowers besides just running fast. Flash [[http://i49.tinypic.com/2cg0kgl.jpg makes it clear that he wasn't even close to going all-out at the time]].

* The live-action ''{{Film/Tekken}}'' adaptation featured both Eddie Gordo and Christie Monteiro. In the games, they are palette-swaps of each other with identical capoeira-based styles. In the film, Eddie remains a capoeira technician while Christie is now trained in Mixed Martial Arts.

* Downplayed in the ''Drizzt Do'Urden'' novels. Of the five main characters (six counting the mascot), four are skilled melee fighters. It's broken up by having one of them being far and away the best technical fighter; one of them being monstrously strong; another being a tough, tactical group-fighter; and the fourth usually doing ranged support. Later, one leaves, and another shows an interest in magic, while a third gets older and starts attending as much to his political duties as his military ones.

* ''WesternAnimation/BeastWars'': As CGI was difficult at the time the members of both factions had distinct jobs in both character and function. As new characters came around those with redundant places got written out. As Inferno took over the flight capable as well as sycophantic roles and Tarantulss gained a treacherous streak the now redundant Scorponok and Terrorsaur died in the season two opening. Similarly, Tigatron became less of an outsider with a differing lifestyle than the rest and Airazor's function as the flying scout got supplanted when the chivalrous falcon/wolf fuzor Silverbolt was coming so they got PutOnABus.

** In short, besides color and hand motions, there's virtually no difference between a Kamehameha, Galick Gun, Final Flash, or Masenko. The damage they inflict has little to do with the technique itself; it's all about how much Ki the user can pour into it. This is averted somewhat with Krillin's signature move, Destructo Disk, which can slice virtually anything in half, even things that Krillin should generally be too weak to destroy, like parts of Frieza's body. However, it's pretty slow and unwieldy and generally misses unless its target is distracted, thus making it a bit of a MightyGlacier in that world.
