* ''Fanfic/DanganronpaMementoMori'': Protagonist Kaori doesn't want to be considered a hero, but rather just someone trying to survive the Killing Game. Daigo, the deuteragonist, instead openly desires to be a hero by ending the Killing Game, to the extent that [[MartyrWithoutACause he would die for his fellow students]], much to the approval of some and chagrin of others. [[spoiler:And Naoya, the antagonist, is so caught up in his own delusions of wanting to be a hero that [[EngineeredHeroics he'll create a crisis to live out his fantasies]], with Kaori ''and'' Daigo condemning him.]]

* The titular character of ''WesternAnimation/{{Hercules}}'' goes into training to become a "true hero" in hopes of restoring his godhood, which was taken from him as a baby, and rejoining his birth parents Zeus and Hera on Mount Olympus. After having become a superstar and beaten a ton of monsters, Hercules thinks he must have met the requirements. Reluctantly, Zeus tells Hercules that while his accomplishments are indeed impressive and worthy of praise, these are not enough. It is not until Herc [[HeroicSacrifice sacrifices himself]] to save the woman he loves from Hades are the requirements fulfilled. When he reaches Mount Olympus, Zeus says that the measure of a hero is not the strength of his arm, but the strength of his heart.

* ''VideoGame/Fallout3'': If the player at the end of the game refuses to enter Project Purity's irradiated control room and instead sends the Brotherhood of Steel's Sentinel Sarah Lyons into the purifier, the narrator during the follow ending cutscene would remark how when the Lone Wanderer when faced with possibility of making the ultimate sacrifice, refused to follow in their father's example and decided instead to let a "true hero" sacrifice her life for the future of mankind. [[note]] If the Broken Steel add on is installed, the player would have the option of sending one of their radiation resistant followers instead of Sarah, namely Fawkes (a Super Mutant), Charon (a Ghoul) and Sergeant RL-3 (a Mr Gutsy combat robot), all three of them would also be similarly referred to as "true heroes" during the cutscene, even (bizarrely) RL-3 which is odd considering that a morally neutral machine who's only will is whatever his owner asks of him and is at no risk whatsoever of experiencing any sort of poisoning. If the player or any of the three followers activates the purifier they would be alive when the game continues beyond the original ending, though Sarah would still die if she gets sent. [[/note]]
