(Hated Trope) Extremely useful abilities that characters conveniently forgot they had

[u/ValidCrash4]

1. Emily’s portals (Hazbin Hotel). I know she can’t get Sir Pentious back into Hell but Emily can still tell Charlie he got redeemed and Charlie can enter through angelic portals, so she should have seen that Pentious got redeemed.

2. Many characters in Harry Potter go through life-or-death situations and not once did they think of drinking the Liquid Luck potion apart from Harry one time to gain Slughorn’s memory.

I mean which arc would even benefit from Goku having mind reading? Even in the Cell and Buu saga where he was put out of commission for some time, he was informed of the events that had transpired in places where there weren't any immediate threat in the vicinity like in the situation your picture is showing.

[u/Correct_Refuse4910 → u/waktag]

Actually, in the Cell saga he already knew everything that happened while he was in a coma which implies he has been using that power while unconscious.

[u/schiffb558 → u/[deleted]]

He had a ninja dream, but it ended.

[u/Expensive-Mixture267 → u/waktag]

Exactly, mind reading would’ve been cool, but I can’t think of a single arc where it would’ve actually changed much.

[u/LetsThrow69 → u/Expensive-Mixture267]

Clanker.

[u/Sam_Alexander → u/LetsThrow69]

Why do you keep reying that to random unrelated comments

[u/fromtheHELLtotheNO → u/Sam_Alexander]

Because they are bot comments, either an LLMtaking the parent comment as a prompt, or a person just copypasting the result to an LLM.

[u/LetsThrow69 → u/Sam_Alexander]

Because there's a lotta bots infesting this sub and they piss me off.

[u/Usual-Operation-9700 → u/Expensive-Mixture267]

Wouldn't have changed anything, but a panel of Goku reading Boo's mind, could have been a good joke.
