Line 22:
* ''[[Outlaw Star]]'' ep. 23, "The Hot Spring Planet Tenrei": Gene get a tape of the female wizard to the [[Dirty Old Man|old wizards]], in return for caster shells. They watch the tape, where the woman strips (with a countdown on the screen). As the countdown runs out, the woman remarks "you must be the dumbest people alive", and the tape explodes. All three state "It was worth it".
* On ''[[Keroro Gunsou]]'' this seems to be Kururu's attitude whenever one of his pranks leads him to get beat up by the victim of said prank. In the Funimation dub version of episode 22, he actually says "Totally worth it!" after [[Tyrant Takes the Helm|a recently-promoted, power-addled Tamama]] drops him down a trapdoor into a dungeon for sticking Keroro and Angol Moa in the same cell.
* After [[Ranma ½|Ranma]] gets his shirt torn open and transforms into a girl, Ryoga gets a pretty clear view of her chest before getting kicked in the face. In [[Ranma ½: The Abridged Chronicles]], he calls out "Totally worth it!" while taking the hit.
* Quatre from ''[[Gundam Wing]]'' has a totally unfunny version of this in his backstory. In this setting, spaceborn humans tend to be test-tube babies due to the genetic engineering required to acclimate them to space life. Quatre's mother insisted upon giving birth to her only son naturally - and she ended up dying in childbirth. When Quatre's father asked her if it was worth it, this was her response.
* In one of the few non-sexual examples, [[Omnicidal Maniac|Gendo and Yui]], at the end of [[Neon Genesis Evangelion|''Neon Genesis Evangelion'']], seemingly planned the plot of the series in one giant game of [[Gambit Roulette]] to achieve an [[What Do You Mean It Wasn't Made on Drugs?|oddly happy]] ending. Heck, this is even more blatantly spelled out in ''Rebuild of Evangelion''. Just [[Mind Screw|what the happy end is intended to be, however....]]
