"Why are you even out there when you're so inept at everything else?"

During the match between Karasuno High and Shiratorizawa Academy, after witnessing Hinata Shouyo play for the first time, Ushijima comments on Hinata's skills. When he first saw Hinata jump, he expected him to be good at blocking and receiving as well. However, evidently, Hinata was bad at everything except for jumping. Hence, Ushijima asks him why was he playing when he was so inept.

While this comment did affect Hinata Shouyo a lot at the time, it was Hinata who ended up winning the match against Ushijima. He not only blocked one of Ushijima's spikes but also scored the match point, leaving Ushijima at the loss of words.

"Right now, I'm more powerful than anyone..."

Back during The Lost Substitute Shinigami Arc, Giriko Kutsuzawa happened to confront Zaraki Kenpachi. However, when Giriko expressed his desire to fight Kenpachi, the Shinigami disregarded him as a small fry.

In response, Giriko transformed into a much larger and muscular form. He then went on to ramble on about his Fullbringer powers and how they allow him to attain great strength. Right as he was calling himself unmatched against anyone, Zaraki Kenpachi interrupted him by cutting him in half. This was quite possibly one of the funniest "famous last words" anime quotes.

Given the utter humiliation, Frieza experienced, his comment has become one of the most popular "famous last words" anime quotes.
