Danball senkii, Eyesheild 21 are good options.

Another good thing to do is sometime show a characters thought process. For example, in a game called infamous your character Cole, likes in a quarentined city with a lot of psychos. At one point a food drop gets placed in the city and a lot of innocent survivors go to get it. He then has a choice. Attack to scare off the people with his lightning powers and collect the food to feed his own family at the risk of others starving, or to let the survivors take the food at the risk of his own family starving. Adding these choices can also help the reader feel closer to the character instead of just someone who's always good at everything.

For example, which of the two would make a more interesting story? A guy who knows a lot of martial arts, heroic in nature, always smiling with the whole world on his side? Or someone who's not that strong, more of a smart allec who never really done anything heroic untill the time the story starts?
