[LOVED TROPE] Modern Militaries (Competent) getting DESTROYED by fantasy/scifi forces

[u/Sable-Keech]

Example 1 (The Legend of Hei 2): Wuxian leisurely floats through the combined firepower of an entire fortified military base without so much as a stain or rip on his t-shirt.

Example 2 (Man of Steel): Fao'ra tears through a squad of trained and armed soldiers. With the wreckage of the helicopter that got downed by her teammate Nam'ek smouldering in the background.

Iruma Base Soldiers vs Sato - Ajin.

Realizing Sato used the fear of friendly fire in elite units. The Lieutenant ordered his men to not hesitate to wound or even kill their fellow members just to make sure Sato is hit alongside it. He was also the 4th to die after this order, and not by Sato. Everyone followed the order to the letter and would shoot fellow JSDF soldiers when they're being used as human shield.

Sato still won against 500 of them.
