The Super Hero people are expected to have a higher moral standard. No abusing your powers for personal gain. Sometimes this is enforced by the authority that granted their abilities, but most often, even if they are aware of the Mundane Utility, it is self-imposed.
What constitutes "abuse"? That gets into a nebulous area. This trope usually involves the more obviously violent powers that could kill someone in a few seconds or violate a person's integrity, but even good powers can make bad people. However, if your family is down on their luck financially, what's a little arm wrestling wager at the pub?
Mostly this is a moral stance superheroes took early in their career to make sure they never hit the slippery slope to evil-dom. This happens fast; arm-wrestling for money at the pub will often signal temptation to evil within a few episodes, if not that very one.
In the hands of a poor writer, it is easy for this to turn into a character Cursed with Awesome powers and unable to enjoy them in any way, trapped in a life they didn't choose. Or it can easily become You Can't Fight Fate and Hard Work Hardly Works, which is usually a one way ticket to Wangst-Ville. It can also degenerate into the idea that benefiting from one's own talents or skills is wrong, and that trying to help others will only end in disaster, but that you are still obligated to do so even knowing that Failure Is the Only Option. The weight of the responsibility of the said great powers is often why heroes have Chronic Hero Syndrome.
Superheroes who follow this trope often become The Cape.
Outside the superhero genre, this is not often a trope relating to the main characters, but many a Reasonable Authority Figure is deeply aware of the responsibilities that come with his post. Indeed, one way to detect whether such a figure is good is how he regards the misery or deaths of the faceless masses; even not knowing any of them, the Reasonable Authority Figure will not regard them as A Million Is a Statistic and if he must sacrifice them, will regard it as Dirty Business.
Contrasted by Muggle Power and With Great Power Comes Great Perks. If the powers result in the character losing any sense of responsibility, see Drunk with Power and With Great Power Comes Great Insanity.

Cole from inFAMOUS. And everything Kessler puts you through? Preparation for when the shit hits the fan. Of course, with the game's moral choice system, it's up to the player whether or not Cole embraces this trope or if he rejects it and is only looking out for himself.

Played straight in the TMNT and Spider-Verse fic note  because it wouldn't be a Spider-Man fic without this trope popping up somewhere Spider-Ninja. The phrase is said three times in the fic, but this dimension's spider-person learned it from Master Splinter instead of Ben Parker.

In Terminator 2: Judgment Day, John realizes this when the Terminator almost kills someone after he orders it to fight off the two guys who came to see if he was ok after he had just screamed for help. In about thirty seconds, John goes from thinking about how cool it was to have his Killer Robot to realizing that it meant that he had the power of life and death at his fingertips and lecturing it about not killing. His second official order note  the first being that it helps him rescue his mom is Thou Shalt Not Kill.

Occasionally averted in X-Men when a mutant is shown using their powers to aid in doing their day job. For example, Colossus used his superhuman strength and endurance to work as a farmer (in the comics) and a construction worker (in the TV series) before joining the team. While he is using his powers to do productive work for society, it is clear that he is getting paid for it.
This was (and still is) a common trait of Communist superheroes (and supervillains!) in comics. Most if not all of them are on the government payroll. It's superhumans from non-autocratic countries who have the freedom to use their powers as they choose.
This was also demonstrated in the 1990s Sleepwalker comics with Anti-Villain Spectra. Her initial criminal schemes give her amazing superhuman powers and transform her into a supervillain, and she seems ready to become a criminal, but by the next time Sleepwalker runs into her she's using her light-projecting abilities to make a living working for a glassware manufacturer.

It's Over, Isn't It (it's only just begun) deconstructs this as well. In the wake of All-Might's Heroic Sacrifice, a culture of martyrdom begins to crop up among those who want to follow in his footsteps. Endeavor deliberately exploits this to encourage the heroes and interns in his employ to push themselves beyond their breaking points, which infuriates Nighteye when he finds out:

When Victoria's mother tries to object, Kara retorts superhuman power must be used responsibly, and Vicky has obviously not been taught that.

Hiro Nakamura, of Heroes, has explicitly quoted this trope, in full "Spider-Man" glory, to his more mercenary friend Ando — and was proved correct when Ando's argued-for cheating at cards got them in serious trouble. (Just because nobody knows how you're cheating doesn't mean they can't tell you're cheating!) And the other hero who exemplifies this philosophy is named Peter P.

Back to the Future: Doc Brown tells Marty that knowing information from the future can drastically alter one's intended decisions and actions. Marty tries to sneak a letter onto him containing the warning about his potential death in 1985, but Brown quickly notices it and breaks the letter while also scolding Marty. By the time Marty returns to the future and seemingly reaches too late to save his life, it turns out Brown had repaired the letter and learned the warning in advance, thus preventing his murder by using a Bulletproof Vest.

Raise has this trope Invoked, Deconstructed, and Defied. People believe that they are entitled to Jaune's help and that any refusal or inability for him to do so is tantamount to murder. Jaune himself internalizes this, but it is clear if he actually tried as hard as was asked of him or was necessary to make a true difference, he would die and he is already burning out at his current pace. Furthermore, the people of Ansel and beyond are destroying the town and developing a terrible mob mentality to get access to Jaune, which has terrorized the Arc family. Finally, Nicholas Arc makes it clear to Jaune that literally no one has any right to his help, and those that act like they do are the least deserving.

The final episodes of Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann carry this theme in the revelation that reckless use of Spiral Energy can potentially destroy the universe. Simon use the Spiral Energy of himself and his comrades to defeat the Anti-Spiral and liberate the Spiral races across the universe, but promises his defeated enemy that they will not misuse it. In the end Simon makes good on his word by refusing to use his power to bring Nia and all the people they’ve lost back to life, and by leaving behind the fame and glory of being the world’s hero so that new people and younger generations can have a turn.

It's kind of subverted in the anime Eden of the East, in which twelve people called Seleçao are enrolled in a "game" where they get 10 billion yen and a concierge that allows them to do almost anything they want with it. It is later revealed that the goal of the "game" is for one of the Seleçao to use the money responsibly to "become a Messiah" who will "save Japan": Those who fail to do so are killed when they run out of money (or killed when one of the others win). "Noblesse Oblige" and "The abuse of greatness is when it disjoins remorse from power" are Arc Words in the story.

Koihime†Musou: Tales of the Armored War Gods: Despite being in a PERFECT position to either use their powers for their gain or even manipulating events, none of the Riders have abused their power OR their knowledge, with the farthest any of them going is using their powers to make a living (often as bandit hunters at that, which is a public service). Even Masataka's actions which are more or less giving Go an advantage are all done with good intentions.

Dragon Ball:
While the Dragon Team has fought powerful villains or villain organizations and saved the world in the process, only Gohan chose to use his Charles Atlas Superpower to fight Earthling-level crimes as a superhero.
Subverted with Kuririn, who has become a policeman in his middle age, but for him, it's just a job and earns money with it. It is never explicitly stated that he chose the job to help people with his Charles Atlas Superpower and he only uses them when he thinks he needs them or if it makes his job easier.
Played straight with Videl, who, while not as strong as the fighters of the Dragon Team, still went crime-fighting during her high school days by using her martial arts. Her father, Mister Satan, who is the world's champion, instead chose a life of luxury.

Harry in the Harry Potter x Ben 10 crossover Harry Tennyson plays with this. Despite Grandpa Max's wishes, he doesn't see having the Omnitrix to mean he has to fight every criminal he finds and rush into every dangerous situation to help people. Instead he believes using the Omnitrix responsibly means making sure he doesn't get anyone hurt with his recklessness. He outright states that he has no interest in being a hero and is only interested in helping someone if the police/firemen/etc. can't help them.

Glowfic has some form of this/plays with this trope somehow.
Bells use their power to give themselves all kinds of neat perks, such as The Needless and Living Lie Detector and Resurrective Immortality and such but they also always without exception use their Functional Magic or other Applied Phlebotinum to improve worlds/people's lives, for example terraforming mars and setting up portals to it and filling it with houses and free magical healing items and free food replicators, and they fix malaria and persuade everyone around them with any power to do the same.

Assassin's Creed and II both deconstruct the eponymous Badass Creed, "Nothing is true; everything is permitted." Ezio, and Altair after Character Development, remark that the Creed essentially is just an Anti-Nihilist repudiation of the concept of "natural law": the only codes of conduct that exist are the ones that human societies choose to impose on themselves for civilizations to exist, and thus the onus is entirely on individual people to act wisely.

The Dresden Files:
Wizard Harry Dresden embraces this trope, saying that he "follows the Tao of Peter Parker." He means it, too. Thomas Raith comments on this in the Dresdenverse story Backup, saying that Harry has a "half-divine, half-insane philosophy" about his responsibility that "he's cobbled together from the words of saints and comic books."
Subverted by many other wizards of the White Council. As long as they do not use black magic, they are free to use their powers for personal gain. If the White Council did not allow it, it would cause a civil war among the wizards.
The Merlin, head of the White Council, however, accepts this trope; he just interprets responsibility differently than Harry.
Molly Carpenter arguing against her mother cites the Parable of Talents as a reason for her to continue practicing magic. Harry immediately points out to a Father this trope says the same idea, only simpler. The Father agrees but notes that "With Great Power Comes Great Responsibility" is harder to work into a sermon.
Archangel Uriel and other angels hint at the idea of this trope. Uriel is one of God's strongest and most dangerous servants. However, as his Duty is the protection of Free Will, then respecting the choices mortals make, even if they are crimes of horrendous evil or just stupid, must be respected. Uriel states he has the power to destroy galaxies, but when a mortal villain mouths off to him and flicks the angel's nose, Uriel can only stand still.

The original Power Rangers were explicitly instructed not to use their powers for anything but fighting evil. This was subverted in the later Mystic Force season, though they were punished for it and technically later teams never had Zordon's three rules.
Even the Theme Song says so. They know the fate of the world is lying in their hands. They know to only use their weapons for defense.
Dustin of Power Rangers Ninja Storm got a light scolding from Sensei for using his abilities to stop a crime — an orchestrated hit on a store. They are only supposed to fight the Monster of the Week and nothing else. Years earlier, Justin got scolded for teleporting to safety when he was falling out of a tree and could have broken his neck (or otherwise been seriously injured).
Appropriately, Super Sentai, and by extent Power Rangers, was inspired by Japanese Spider-Man.

Whateley Universe: Lots of examples, including the headmistress of Whateley Academy, but Stormwolf (Adam Ironknife) is probably the best example. He's so devoted to the concepts of justice and law that he's letting bad stuff happen because he doesn't have proof of it. Also, every single person in the school club Future Superheroes of America is this way by definition.
On the other hand, all of Team Kimba use their powers to make their lives easier, doing everything from Fey magically drying her long hair every morning, to Generator using her powers to earn money working in the Whateley Academy sewers.
While Phase has few compunctions about using his powers to benefit himself through Mundane Utility, he is also very self-conscious about both the risks of misusing them and obligation to use them constructively, to the level of Chronic Hero Syndrome at times. While he explicitly denies wanting to be a superhero, he's been called out at least once for espousing this position in a lot more words.

Kamen Rider has this baked into the premise thanks to Shotaro Ishinomori's fondness for the Phlebotinum Rebel trope. In every single series, the Riders' powers come from the same source as their enemies, but the Riders choose to do good with them. This got a special notice in the Post-Script Episodes of Kamen Rider Wizard, where the villain tries to claim that the Riders hide behind a facade of "justice" but are no better than the monsters they slay; the Riders counter by saying that they fight to protect humanity's peace and freedom against those who would destroy both, rather than for some arbitrary definition of justice.
Actually flipped to "With Great Responsibility Comes Great Power" in Kamen Rider Kuuga. The first time Yusuke Godai transforms, it's to protect himself, and all he can manage is Kuuga's Growing Form. When he decides to transform to protect everyone's smiles, that's when he achieves Kuuga's more powerful Mighty Form.
In Kamen Rider Gaim, Takatora Kureshima believes in this in the form of noblesse oblige; later in the series, his brother deconstructs it while they fight each other:
In Kamen Rider Drive, Gou/Kamen Rider Mach uses the same Density Shift powers as the Roidmudes to intimidate some criminals for information; Shinnosuke/Drive chews him out for this, saying that they have a responsibility to be better than that. It helps that Shinnosuke was a By-the-Book Cop even before he became Drive.

Final Fantasy XIV:
The core tenet of the Circle of Knowing and its successor organization, the Scions of the Seventh Dawn is that those with power and knowledge must wield it to better the lives of others. All of the Scions as of the 2.0 relaunch are staunchly devoted to making the world a better place by helping to defeat the threat of the Ascians and primal summonings despite having nothing to gain from it and often suffering for it.
The Company of Heroes' creed is that it's the duty of the strong to protect the weak. It's because the members of the Company are elite soldiers and heroes who possess strength far above most men that they're obligated to protect those weaker than them. This is why the surviving members of Company have taken up positions as bodyguards and protectors rather than continuing to peddle their trade as sellswords.
The story examines this in regards to the Warrior of Light in particular.
In the Level 80 Summoner quest, Jajasamu asks the Warrior how they feel about constantly being at the front of the battle against primal summonings. The Warrior can respond by saying that they're happy to be of service or say that it's just the way of things. As someone with the Echo and the ability to defeat primals, they feel obligated to help.
The Dark Knight questline also examines the Warrior's feelings of duty and the burdens associated with their title. Fray, the embodiment of their buried resentments against those who have taken advantage of them as well as their self-love and self-esteem, rants and raves about how the Warrior shouldn't have to risk their life for others. Meanwhile, Myste, the embodiment of their grief and regret over the people they've killed and failed to save, implies that a part of the Warrior would like nothing more than to deny it all happened. Despite this, the Warrior refuses to forsake their responsibilities because even worse tragedies await should they lose the will to fight.

Inuyasha: Inuyasha isn't allowed to obtain Tessaiga without learning that he must protect humans if he wants to wield it. Thereafter, his ability to strengthen and master Tessaiga goes hand in hand with his increasing compassion.
Sesshoumaru has to learn the same lesson. In his case, he is forced to inherit Tenseiga as a way of forcing him to learn the value of compassion. Only after he has learned this lesson is he able to realise his full potential and obtain Bakusaiga.

DC Nation: Fauna points out to a couple of her fellow (non-powered) activists that if someone obtains metahuman abilities, their options are surprisingly few. Try to hide them? Well, you don't have any control or training, so your abilities end up using you instead and you're a target for people who want to exploit you. Embrace them, but still don't take up the hero position? Well, if someone could have been helped by your abilities and you refused to use them, good luck dealing with the guilt. You can't get rid of them most of the time, even if you want to, and it still makes you a target. Heroism is a dirty, dangerous job, but at least you're not a lone target, and you might be able to eke some good out of it.

Star Wars: The Clone Wars: while the main Aesop of "Lightsaber Lost" is about patience, it also touches on responsibility — Ahsoka's lightsaber is pickpocketed off her at the start of the episode and she's worried what the criminal who took it could do with it as a result of her carelessness, and the episode culminates with said criminal taking civilians hostage with the lightsaber at their throats. Ahsoka is brought to a Jedi youngling class at the end of the episode to pass this lesson on to the children.

In The Irregular at Magic High School, the Japanese government enforces this trope legally upon its genetically engineered magicians. Its interpretation of "responsibility" includes things like "marry who you're told to", "never leave the country for any reason", and "don't defend yourself once we've decided You Have Outlived Your Usefulness". Magicians also have to contend with entitled civilians who think the law means they can order any random magician nearby to serve as their personal bodyguard note it doesn't, any more than if you ordered a cop to do the same thing, without recompense for as long as the civilian feels like.

In Saint Seiya: The Lost Canvas, the Saints are absolutely forbidden from using their Clothes for personal gain, having to don them exclusively to protect Athena and humankind. If they do use their Clothes for personal gain, Sanctuary law has it that they shall be executed.
This is also present in the original series: at the start, the protagonist Saints are using their Clothes to fight in the Galaxy Tournament, and the Sanctuary, upon hearing of this, sends another powerful Saint (Hyoga in the manga, Ikki in the anime) to execute the lot of them.

Mentioned in Undertale, but only under rather specific circumstances — if you kill Papyrus, but aren't going full genocide, Sans will meet you in the Last Corridor and insinuate he knows about your Save Scumming, and ask if you have a special power, doesn't that mean you also have a responsibility to do the right thing? Regardless of what your response is, it leads to him calling you out for killing Papyrus.

In the print- and webcomic PS238, the private school Praetorian Academy is founded on the ideals of teaching this to its (grade-school level) students. Their somewhat draconian methods of enforcing these ideals contrast it sharply to PS238 itself, which is more of a normal grade school (with a curriculum modified thereafter) for kids that happen to have superpowers.

In The Godfather game, Tom Hagen tells you as Aldo Trapani that becoming Capo is an honor that comes with great responsibility, should you speak with him immediately after the promotion cutscene. Given that Aldo's at best a Sociopathic Hero and at worst an out-and-out Villain Protagonist, though, one wonders if there was meant to be any moral behind it...

Various versions of Iron Man usually wrestle with this — Tony Stark's fortune is built on his engineering genius, but in the film, Tony decides to get his company out of the munitions business after seeing that his weapons were being sold in dirty deals to terrorists and criminals. In the comics, Stark quit selling weapons years ago, but he still frets about villains stealing and abusing his armor designs, sometimes to the level of paranoia that he manipulates, deceives, and attacks his own friends.

Divine spellcasters in Dungeons & Dragons and Pathfinder make this a game mechanic: in exchange for their powers, they are required to use them in ways that advance (or at least do not conflict with) a given cause, typically a deity or religion. The Paladin is an extreme example of this, losing their divinely granted powers instantly if they violate their code of conduct (or sacred oath in 5th Edition D&D).

In Smallville, Clark naturally feels compelled to use his powers to help others. Jonathan once had a line like that too. Chloe Sullivan too, after she received the meteor power of Empathic Healing, she insists on healing a dying Lex even though it killed her the first time. It killed her again, but she has Resurrective Immortality. Many others with powers don't.

In Keychain of Creation, Misho was a Solar of the First Age, and therefore one of the rulers of Creation. Unlike many of his brethren, he ruled wisely and well. However, one day he saw the Loom of Fate, and due to his perfect memory, he could never forget it. He spent the rest of his First Age incarnation working non-stop since with his power he knew every single second of his time could save hundreds of lives. It's implied that when the Usurpation came he didn't even notice until he was actually killed.

Star Wars: The Old Republic: Sith Inquisitor companion Ashara Zavros, formerly a Jedi Padawan, criticizes a revered Jedi Master for living in meditative seclusion while the galaxy is torn apart by war but also takes note that in contrast to the Jedi Code, the Sith Code is more of a description of how Sith view the Force than an instruction on how to act. She argues that since she and the Inquisitor have these powers, they should be using them to help end the galaxy's suffering.

In The Powerpuff Girls Movie, which is a detailed telling of their Origin Story, the girls learn the hard way what using their full power recklessly can do to an innocent town; a game of tag wrecks many buildings and streets, and generally panic the citizens. In the end, the message is subverted, and by the time of the series, the ridiculously large amount of collateral damage the girls wreak on Townsville is accepted by everyone as the cost of safety.

This was also demonstrated in the 1990s Sleepwalker comics with Anti-Villain Spectra. Her initial criminal schemes give her amazing superhuman powers and transform her into a supervillain, and she seems ready to become a criminal, but by the next time Sleepwalker runs into her she's using her light-projecting abilities to make a living working for a glassware manufacturer.

Back to the Future:
Back to the Future: Doc Brown tells Marty that knowing information from the future can drastically alter one's intended decisions and actions. Marty tries to sneak a letter onto him containing the warning about his potential death in 1985, but Brown quickly notices it and breaks the letter while also scolding Marty. By the time Marty returns to the future and seemingly reaches too late to save his life, it turns out Brown had repaired the letter and learned the warning in advance, thus preventing his murder by using a Bulletproof Vest.
Back to the Future Part II: As stated by Brown in this movie, not using Time Travel for personal gain was one of his self-imposed policies on his and Marty's trips in the trilogy. In this movie, Marty considered making easy money with a time machine, but Biff Tannen beat him to using a future sports almanac to gamble on past events, which resulted in drastic changes in the timeline. However, like other rules — not using information from the future and avoiding one's other selves — Doc eventually disregarded this rule anyway after finding his love in 1885.
Back to the Future Part III: Doc constructed a giant machine with the sole purpose of creating ice cubes before the technology became common, which sounds like something one would do if they were trying to randomly change the timeline. But that's all it does, too; no Chekhov's Gun here since Doc never showed any intention to make this invention public.

Kim Possible has no superhuman abilities, but her ability to call in favors comes close. She can usually line up global transport and any needed equipment from people she had helped in the past, at any hour of the day, to anywhere on Earth. She is reluctant to use it for her gain from an ethical standpoint, but in a more practical sense, she knows that abusing this ability might make it go away since it's tied to her character and reputation.

Several episodes in Batman: The Animated Series show that Bruce Wayne embraces this trope both as Batman and as Bruce Wayne. Batman, as we all know, helps everyone he can, with his accomplishments ranging from stopping Ras al Ghul from killing off the human race to stopping a poor woman's ex husband from kidnapping their daughter. Bruce Wayne helps people by using his vast wealth to sponsor many charities and efforts to better Gotham and the lives of the people in it, with Bruce sometimes even befriending Batman's rogues. This is in sharp contrast with other members of Gotham's elite, who often use their wealth to simply entertain themselves at the expense of others.

The Animorphs agree to an unwritten code of conduct in the way they use their powers: don't use them to steal, don't morph sentient beings, and so on. In early books, they're fairly studious about this code, aside from their tendency to use their powers for opening-chapter hijinks. Later in the David Trilogy, they break the rules for the first time, leading to new Sixth Ranger David deciding to take that idea and run with it. In the aftermath, the Animorphs swear to follow their code more strictly. They don't.
Jake also notes in MM3 that their power traps them in a bind: they have enough power to fight and make them responsible, but they don't have enough power to actually win.

Please Don't Tell My Parents I'm a Supervillain: Deconstructed with Claudia, AKA "Generic Girl." She's the strongest super in the city by a fairly noticeable margin and spends all her free time stopping crime quickly and efficiently. However, she is still a 13-year-old girl who should not have to shoulder that responsibility. She's the strongest, but there are more than enough other heroes who can handle things, not to mention the fact that Claudia hates fighting and crashes hard from the adrenaline. Her arc in Henchmen revolves around realizing that the city can get by fine without her; in the climax, she's all set to solve the problem in five seconds, but Penny convinces her it's more important she spends time with her father because the other kids can handle it (albeit slower).

Dishonored:
The Outsider grants his gifts of magic to people purely because he finds them interesting and wants to see what they'd do with an extra catalyst. He even tells Corvo outright that what he chooses to do with his newfound powers is entirely up to him.
In a meta sense, Corvo's (and the player's) actions throughout the game drastically alter the tone of the setting. It could thus be said that this trope is the entire game's moral.

My Hero Academia both subverts and averts this trope. While there are heroes who become heroes for the sake of protecting people and society, most heroes become heroes for fame, money, and recognition, thinking it's no different than being a pop culture icon. It's the latter reasons that motivate the Hero Killer Stain as he believes being a hero has become too tainted by "fakers". The League of Villains uses Stain's motivation as a stepping stone for their own plans.

Back to the Future Part III: Doc constructed a giant machine with the sole purpose of creating ice cubes before the technology became common, which sounds like something one would do if they were trying to randomly change the timeline. But that's all it does, too; no Chekhov's Gun here since Doc never showed any intention to make this invention public.

In the W.I.T.C.H. episode "The Stone Of Threbe", the girls have trouble getting the smelly character Blunk to take a bath, so they decide to transform to make it easier to catch him. A few minutes after doing so, their powers are stripped away by a side-effect of the Stone of Threbe's presence, and they spend the rest of the episode wishing they'd used their powers more responsibly. The loss of the girls' powers isn't directly related to their misuse, but it seems like Karma chose to bite them in the butt.
Which leads to Fridge Logic and a Broken Aesop since cleaning Blunk up was supposed to keep his stink from hurting Hay Lin's family-owned restaurant's business; since the restaurant's basement acts as the Guardian's HQ and Hay's grandmother/WITCH's mentor lives there it's in the best interests of the entire universe that it stay open. Karma does pay them back at the end when Blunk rolls into a car wash and gets clean.
The girls usually experience similar cosmic backlash when they use their Astral Drop clones to make life a bit easier for them. In the third volume of the original comic, overuse of the Astral Drops leads to the girls' lives getting wrecked for a while, while in the second season animated series episode "H is for Hunted", Nerissa uses her powers to make one of Will's Astral Drops a living, breathing person... with heartrending consequences.
Also in "H is for Hunted" they transform to decorate their gym for the farewell party of one of their teachers and mostly get away with it, though they do come close to getting caught. The more realistic Aesop ("Don't neglect your responsibilities") is mixed in with the Fantastic Aesop fairly well and the Astral Drops are not used at all for the rest of the season, though more likely because of Nerissa's ability instead of the girls learning their lesson.

Something interesting — fansub group Janime translates a line from Yu-Gi-Oh! GX as "With great responsibility comes great power." The speaker is not referring to any superpower, but Judai's super-charisma and inherent ability to inspire people and get them to follow him just by being himself. Which isn't as good as it sounds.

Bewitched lampshaded this trope in an episode where Samantha used her powers to do something but was seen by a mortal who wasn't supposed to see her. So she's considering "freezing" them until she can figure out what to do about it. But to do that, she would have to freeze others who would miss them if they weren't around for a few weeks while the person was gone, so they'd have to be frozen. She sort of realizes the ridiculousness of this when she considers maybe she should just freeze the entire human race, i.e. all mortals. Once you get started with potentially bad actions, each subsequent one becomes easier until you've crossed every line.

In the A Song of Ice and Fire books, the Iron Throne is a Cool Chair made from the thousand swords of Aegon the Conqueror's enemies. It's incredibly uncomfortable to sit on and is rumored to have killed Aegon's son, Maegor. The entire point is to remind anyone who sits on it that supreme power is supremely dangerous, not something to be trifled with and one can never slouch and grow complacent while they sit on the throne. The overwhelming majority of people in these books completely miss this point.

Dead Like Me: If the reapers abuse their powers they face supernatural consequences. When George tries to directly speak to her mother she finds she can no longer remember memories she could talk about to prove she is Joy's daughter (her appearance is altered to the living). Also when George tries to mess with fate, weird and unpleasant things start happening to her.

A bit of a subversion and Aesop in The DCU. Rita Farr's inability to control her size-changing abilities ended her film career. The only movie she made after it was a knockoff of "The Incredible Shrinking Woman." Likewise, her adopted son (Gar "Beast Boy" Logan) also went into acting, and had a good run on a Star Trek knockoff, using his shapechanging ability to play an alien...however, neither of them were able to find more acting work, since their reputations as "freaks" made them un-castable in anything else. Other DCU examples were Victor "Cyborg" Stone and Cliff "Robot Man" Steele. Their Emergency Transformation enhanced them but rendered them ineligible to participate in the athletic abilities they loved because their cybernetics were considered cheating. For all of the above, it's arguable that they're in the hero business because they can't do anything else.

Poor President Bartlet from The West Wing has a very strong sense of this trope that invariably leads to enormous guilt, to the point of declaring that he would not be able to stomach the prospect of remaining President if he ever walked willingly to a bunker during a crisis. The trope was not just limited to his personal feelings: it screwed him over badly on numerous occasions, most sadistically in the third season finale, because it's part of his job.

Man of Steel:
Jonathan tells the young Clark that he has to decide what kind of man he wants to be, since with his powers he can change the world.
Though Jor-El's primary concern is his son's survival, he's not ignorant of the implications Kal-El's superpowers will have on Earth, among humans, so he or his avatar tells him to live in humanity's service.
Martha offers a beleaguered Clark a different twist on this in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice; she tells him that he should be whatever kind of person he wants to be, that other people are not entitled to his sacrifices, and that in the end, he must do what he does because he chooses to.

Satoru Gojo in Jujutsu Kaisen is an incredibly confident Jujutsu sorcerer, due to being Born Lucky with an incredibly rare and powerful Cursed Technique, but he was even more arrogant when he was younger, to the point that he believed he didn't need to protect those weaker than him. It takes the death of his ward that he cared for and was tasked to protect, as well as his best friend Suguru Geto betraying him, to humble him and make him realize the responsibility that comes with his immense power, as well as what he isn't capable of alone, namely changing the conservative Jujutsu society he lives in.

In Mega Man ZX, it's noted at multiple points that the Chosen Ones who become Mega Men have the potential to change the very state of the world with the power of their Biometals. The heroes are the ones who choose to use that power to protect the innocent from Mavericks to keep them from suffering the same fates their loved ones suffered or for the sakes of those who helped them when no one else would, while most of the villains want to use their powers to rule the world and institute their brands of order on it because of their past traumas.

Spoofed in Psychonauts. After Ford Crueller teaches Raz how to use pyrokinesis, he tells him not to use it unless it's REALLY important, or unless it's REALLY funny. The dev team ensured it would always be funny, encouraging guaranteeing a flagrant abuse of the power.

Inverted in Questionable Content by the AnthroPCs which are fine with having no civil rights because having power would mean having to take responsibility For The Lulz. Given how most of them seem free to run around doing whatever they please instead of serving as an actual computer, it seems like they've gotten the better part of the deal.
Also, Hannelore points out that her mom could have never gotten to where she was as a businesswoman if she believed that.

Back to the Future Part II: As stated by Brown in this movie, not using Time Travel for personal gain was one of his self-imposed policies on his and Marty's trips in the trilogy. In this movie, Marty considered making easy money with a time machine, but Biff Tannen beat him to using a future sports almanac to gamble on past events, which resulted in drastic changes in the timeline. However, like other rules — not using information from the future and avoiding one's other selves — Doc eventually disregarded this rule anyway after finding his love in 1885.

In Danny Phantom, Danny has occasionally used his powers to retaliate against bullies. However, when he lays on Dash, he comes to regret it when a nerdish ghost confuses him as a bully.
Danny using his powers for any personal gain never works out well and sometimes puts Amity Park and its people in world-ending danger. One possible future that he created by cheating on an ersatz SAT led to his friends and family being killed in an extremely unlikely accident... because his English teacher wanted to make a point. Danny himself being the sole survivor wound up having his ghost half turned into a monster who killed his human half and began a ten-year reign of terror. Half-averted with Vlad Masters/Vlad Plasmius who used his powers to amass a fortune through clearly unethical means... and half-played straight in that he's a lonely and bitter man who wants to be loved. Well, that's what he says as he tries to repeatedly kill Jack Fenton and endangers innocent people regularly. You would think Vlad alone would be enough of an example to not need the other Aesops, but Danny can be an Idiot Hero on occasion.

The Powerpuff Girls:
In The Powerpuff Girls Movie, which is a detailed telling of their Origin Story, the girls learn the hard way what using their full power recklessly can do to an innocent town; a game of tag wrecks many buildings and streets, and generally panic the citizens. In the end, the message is subverted, and by the time of the series, the ridiculously large amount of collateral damage the girls wreak on Townsville is accepted by everyone as the cost of safety.
Also in The Powerpuff Girls Rule!!!, the Girls fight over the key to the world after they go Drunk with Power. It's only after they see the people with their heads down do they realize their mistake. The Mayor even says this trope word for word after the girls apologize.

Jurassic Park: Ian Malcolm talks about how a hypothetical martial artist, by the time he can kill someone with his bare hands, should also have learned the wisdom not to do so recklessly. He says that most other forms of power are similar. He then compares it to science, which allows people "to stand on the shoulders of giants" without developing the necessary wisdom. The film had a similar speech, though it was summarized by the line:

Child of the Storm has the famous quote pop up occasionally, and Harry more or less lives by this maxim - though he draws a crucial distinction between choosing to involve himself in something that actually matters and being dragged into something that doesn't (a.k.a. the Triwizard Tournament). Which is to say that he takes it very, very badly.

Grrl Power: ARCHON has this as its mission statement - literally, as it uses a (poorly translated) version of this phrase as the organization's Pretentious Latin Motto, and the agency has the remit of enlisting any superhuman who seeks to use their powers productively, broadly enforcing this trope (mostly).

Superman:
In War World, after helping him find Supergirl, The Spectre reminds Clark that power must be used responsibly.
Used in All-Star Superman, although not spelled out. Lex Luthor gains Superman's powers at the end and goes on a rampage, stopping every so often as his Super-Senses give him new insights on the universe. Just as his powers run out, he declares that life is beautiful and everyone needs to stick together — implying that anybody with Superman's godlike perspective would naturally choose to become an altruist. The "Where Are They Now?" Epilogue implies that he mellowed out considerably after the experience.
Superman isn't above using his powers to get a good news story if doing so doesn't interfere with fighting evil. In one of the earliest comics, he scooped Lois on a story about a dam bursting by outrunning her train, stopping the flood, and phoning the story in. Justified in that his heroics makes his job more difficult far more often than it makes it easier, and the guy deserves a break.
In Starfire's Revenge, a suitor tries to talk Supergirl into quitting her hero identity and leading the peaceful, normal life she deserves. Supergirl replies she wishes she was normal, but she is not, and she is obliged to use her powers to help humanity for as long as she is needed.

The Hercules: The Legendary Journeys episode "Regrets... I've Had A Few" features this. Shortly after the Young Hercules Pilot Movie, Hercules has become brash and arrogant, acting bored and too good for Cheiron's lessons. One of the local gangs attempts to initiate a new member (Bartoc) by siccing him on Hercules. During the confrontation, Hercules treats it as a joke and just messes with Bartoc, until he accidentally breaks the guy's neck. It's a wake-up call for Herc, and he spends the remaining flashbacks dealing with the fallout (including delivering the news to Bartoc's family).

Kick-Ass sums it up with "With no power comes no responsibility. Except that's not true." In context, all the "superheroes" are normal people taking up costumes in a realistic world with realistic consequences, including the protagonist, whose combination of inexperience and naivety of becoming a vigilante is played as such a boneheaded move that he almost gets killed on his first day. However, the rest of the story details that if one does manage to survive long enough to learn the ropes, the power to fight evildoers in the pursuit of justice is very real, worth it, and AWESOME.

Genius: The Transgression calls its Karma Meter "Obligation". High Obligation, you're a Reasonable Authority Figure and Science Hero. Low Obligation, you're either a cackling lunatic or Mengele. The Peerage's view on it subverts it slightly; you do have a responsibility, but it's a responsibility to keep your head down, remain quiet, and don't do anything too insane. To them, a Genius trying to help has the risk of getting carried away and having weird ideas on what helping means.

In Geneforge, this is a major theme of the Shapers. While they're not good guys (Grey-and-Gray Morality rules the roost), they know exactly how dangerous Shaping is, and while they use this technology as the basis of their civilization, they consider containment procedures and keeping Shaping under control to be just as important as continuing to develop the art for the good of their people. Their black labs have security procedures that make the CDC look lax, and they forbid the use of Upgrade Artifacts because a core element of their philosophy is that developing one's power naturally means developing the discipline to use this power wisely while giving power to amateurs before they're ready will lead to chaos.

In the Family Guy episode "Cool Hand Peter", Peter, Joe, Quagmire, and (a visiting) Cleveland decide to take a road trip down south to get away from their wives for a bit. While traveling, they're pulled over by a corrupt hick who arrests them on trumped-up charges simply because Cleveland is black. When it looks like their stay in prison may be indefinite, the gang opts to escape on their own, back to Quahog. When they arrive, it turns out the police force followed them, only for Joe to reveal that he anticipated this and called in Quahog's police force. The episode ends when Joe gives a speech.

Mage: The Awakening:
The Karma Meter is enforced more harshly for mages than for Muggles. Mages are blocked from the highest levels of Wisdom just for using magic for its Mundane Utility, a Magic Misfire is worse for low-Wisdom mages, and Spirits dislike low-Wisdom mages on sight.
Mages need to be careful about the spells they cast because flagrantly throwing around extremely obvious magic threatens the various Magic Misfire incidents of Paradox.
This belief is what separates the Silver Ladder from the Seers of the Throne. The Silver Ladder believes they're supposed to rule over Sleepers, but that this rulership is for the Sleepers' good — they're supposed to guide Sleepers towards enlightenment and generally rule well. Seers don't believe that control over Sleepers has any real responsibilities apart from not spooking the herd and abuse both mystical and manipulative power for personal gain on a grimly regular basis.

In the New World of Darkness:
Muggles can win free points on the Karma Meter for exceptional acts of heroism, whereas the various supernatural splats always have to spend Experience Points for the same. This is explicitly explained as a responsibility of the powerful to tend to the well-being of their souls.
Mage: The Awakening:

In Charmed (1998), the sisters were prohibited from using their power for "personal gain" to the point where they couldn't even use it to save Piper's life when she was about to die from natural causes, even though it would preserve their special Power-of-Three-ness and presumably save many lives in the long run. Later on, the writers played with this trope a bit.
In Season 6, Phoebe's empath power is taken away because the Elders feel she abused it.
In Season 7, the sisters use their powers to help the avatars try and create a utopia but this comes at a heavier price than they realise and then they have to put things right.
Towards the end of Season 8 the magical community turns on the sisters for not living up to their responsibilities.

In Mob Psycho 100, Mob has an incredibly mundane, mediocre life...and god-like Psychic Powers. However, he almost never uses his powers because when he was younger, his future mentor Reigen told him that he shouldn't ever view himself as superior to ordinary people, and that misusing his abilities would be like misusing a knife (but on a much grander scale). An early story arc introduces a Shadow Archetype character who does use his powers to rule his school; after getting curb-stomped by Mob, he undergoes a Heel–Face Turn and becomes much more humble.

In the Star Trek: The Next Generation episode "True Q", when trying to justify killing Amanda if she were a half human/Q hybrid, Q states "With unlimited power comes responsibility." Being that it's Q, you can't be sure if he isn't being disingenuous, but the episode still does make the point when Amanda is forced to face the fact that living as a human would mean not making use of her powers.

On Ella the Elephant, Ella can use her magic hat to help others, but it will start acting funny and not work properly if she tries to use it to do something like getting out of doing work.
