While the heroes get kicked around a lot, after a certain point we don't worry so much. But if you want to really show off how badass a new antagonist might be, not only should they beat the hero in a fight quickly, but they should hurt their pride. The easiest way to do that is smash up their signature weapon/accessory.
Although this is sometimes a cheap and inexplicable device to show off a new transformation, more often the hero is figuratively neutered and has to deal with the emotional aftermath. Even if he has a buddy who can fix it up, that won't be as important as him coming to grips with either his reasons for fighting or just learning not to be such a clod about it. If this is a videogame, it's by far the easiest way to REALLY piss off the player along with their virtual avatar.
Naturally, this is much more emotional for the character if they also have an Empathic Weapon and even worse if it's an Equippable Ally or other Living Weapon. If the weapon is an actual part of the character's body, it's a Fake Arm Disarm, which makes the crippling somewhat more literal.
For antagonists, such a moment can function similarly to a Hero Killer moment but without having to kill anyone important. A way to show that a villain is not the usual fare and will require something new to confront, the destruction of the hero's weapon signifies that the old ways are out. An Outside-Context Problem can often manifest like this when they first make their presence known, the hero trying to use their typical response but only to discover that they are ineffective, destroying their treasured weapon in the process. The answer to this is often a Next Tier Power-Up, either by the hero forcing themselves to learn that they were more than their weapon (and thus finding new strength/resolve from within) or simply finding the Sword of Plot Advancement and/or Infinity +1 Sword to make another stab at the villain.
In some cases, the breaking of a character's weapon can be a foreshadowing of that character's death (if it occurs shortly before), or symbolic of it (if it occurs during or shortly after). In this case, there may be some overlap with Tragic Keepsake if one of the character's friends keeps the weapon or a piece of it as a memento. If the weapon also has an association with a nation (for example, the royal sword of the king) then it can even signify the fall of the nation in question. If a villain's weapon breaks, it usually signifies that their reign has come to an end as a villain's weapon is usually a symbol of their power. Alternately, the breaking of a soldier's sword is normally a major part of an Insignia Rip-Off Ritual.
Although sometimes on rare occasions and if at all possible, the victim of this trope will continue to use the broken weapon or at least, pieces of it to fight — like, say, a blade of a sword being shattered, yet there's still enough metal left for it to be used as a knife, even a type of polearm (like say a spear) or even staff; being bisected in half, forcing the user to either dual-wield or use the blade part of the stick as a dagger, and that's barely scratching the surface.
The reasoning for the character still using this weapon can have a few symbolic meanings* Like their weapons may be broken yet their spirits aren't as an example or they just simply have no other options. As it broke in the middle of the fight and they just have to work with what they have, it really depends on the context and situation. This also essentially makes them into an Improbable Weapon User, depending on what pieces of the broken weapon they choose to use or just how broken their weapon is.
May lead to Reforged Blade, Give Me a Sword, or even It Was a Gift. Can be used for an Intimidation Demonstration.
In a mundane "real world" series without magic or swords, the easiest way for a villain to do this is to trash the hero's ride.
Compare Breakable Weapons, where this is a gameplay mechanic instead of a plot event. Contrast Like Cannot Cut Like. A weapon with Detachable Blades can simply replace the blade and it becomes usable again. See Scarred Equipment (for weapons that are worn out) and Weapons Breaking Weapons.

In Aquaman (2018), Orm breaks Arthur's trident during their Combat by Champion in the Ring of Fire. The rest of the movie involves Arthur finding the mythical Trident of Atlan which, as Mera points out, he was supposed to do before fighting Orm. However, Arthur does find the Trident of Atlan and uses it to completely shatter Orm's trident in the Final Battle.

This happens semi-regularly to Finn's swords in Adventure Time, usually for some plot significant reason.
The chipped, golden sword Finn uses in the first two seasons, Scarlet, is accidentally turned fourth-dimension in the episode "The Real You" and Finn uses it to destroy a black hole, and it's lost in the ensuing extra-dimensional explosion. He eventually replaces it with a root sword he recovers as dungeon loot in "Mystery Train".
Finn eventually replaces the root sword with a demon blood sword that once belonged to his adoptive dog father Joshua in "Dad's Dungeon". However, Finn's forced to destroy it when the demon whose blood it came from comes back in "Play-Date" and demands the return of his blood or else he'll kill Ice King and Abracadaniel. It's eventually replaced by a grass sword in "Blade of Grass" after Jake notices Finn is bummed out by the destruction of the family's demon sword.
After losing most of the grass sword in "Escape from the Citadel", Finn inexplicably obtains another replacement sword in "Is That You?" when he encounters an alternate version of himself, who explodes and turns into a sentient sword dubbed the Finn Sword. However, in "I Am a Sword", the sword is stolen by Bandit Princess, and in a fight to reclaim the Finn Sword, Finn accidentally pierces the crystal gem above the hilt with a newly regrown grass sword, cracking it and apparently "killing" the sword (although it's still useable). Eventually, in the episode "Reboot", the new grass sword merges with the Finn Sword to create a plant clone of Finn, and he permanently loses both weapons.
Finn is seen having gotten a new rapier-like sword by "Do No Harm", although it's eventually destroyed in "The Wild Hunt" when he uses it to slay a giant banana monster whose body was full of molten-hot fudge that melted the blade. In "Marcy & Hunson", Peppermint Butler gives Finn a replacement sword called the Night Sword, and this is the sword Finn keeps until the end of the series.

One of the very first things seen in Ultraman Geed is Ultraman Zero getting his Ultimate Brace wrecked, to the point where he can barely maintain the Ultimate Aegis for one dimensional trip. As he accesses his Ultra Zero Lance/Defensor and form changes through said brace, this deprives Zero of most of his arsenal.

The "Oh shit!" factor is quite high in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows when Harry's wand, the special powers of which had saved him twice over in battles against Voldemort, is blown in half and (almost) irreparably damaged during a fight. Fortunately, he uses the Elder Wand to repair it.
In the film, after Harry defeats Voldemort and gains possession of the Elder Wand, he snaps it in half so it can never be used again.

Samurai Jack:
Jack knows a technique called "The Tremendous Horse-Cut" that destroys an opponent's weapon. He's only used it once, against The Scotsman - whose sword was also magical and thus resisted the attack. Played straight in Season 5 when Aku blasts the aged Scotsman with his Eye Beams, reducing him to ash and shattering his sword. Fortunately, the Celtic magic in the sword brings the Scotsman back as a ghost.
In Season 5, Jack's futuristic weapons and armor are all destroyed by the Daughters of Aku in the second episode. He also grabs a legendary axe in the mausoleum scene, and as legendary also means old, the axe breaks after a few hits.

The Visions of V prequel manga reveals that Yamato was shattered by none other than Mundus after defeating Vergil, who was trapped in the Demon World at the end of Devil May Cry 3. Agnus would eventually collect the fragments of Yamato and attempt to restore it over the years, to no avail. Yamato is ultimately restored in Devil May Cry 4 by Nero after it responds to his strong desire to protect Kyrie, granting him an incomplete Devil Trigger.

In Devil May Cry 5, Urizen shatters Dante's sword Rebellion with a punch. Dante keeps the hilt, and eventually is inspired to stab himself with the bit of blade left. This causes him to absorb the Sword of Sparda and the remains of Rebellion to form a new sword, the Devil Sword Dante - as well as unleash his Sin Devil Trigger.

In Samurai Shodown II, every character had both a weapon and a manoeuvre to break the opponent's weapon. This typically left them without some, most, or all of their special moves (Cham Cham would obviously not be able to throw her boomerang, but still had her other moves; Wan-Fu's specials all involved his weapon swinging somehow).
Galford can use every move without his weapon, including his super moves (because his dog is doing most of the work in the majority of his moveset.)

Belkinus Necrohunt:
One of the trade-offs for how strong Enoch's firearms can be. They can end up breaking if Enoch rolls a Natural 1 on an attack with it. He would then need to make a roll to repair it.
One of the items that Grikyak was selling and then later gave to the party as thanks for their donations to him was a dead branch. It turned out that it used to be a powerful branch wand, but a necromancer's Blight spell drained out all of its life. Now, it is pretty much useless until a wizard can bring it back to life.
In Session 12, when Luna severed off one of Alter's hands, the sword (along with the arm) that the latter was carrying ended up disintegrating into a pile of molten goo.
In the Grand Finale, Luna ends up breaking Absolution as she deals the killing blow to Chandrelle, keeping the hilt to later use as the symbol of a guild she founds.

Multiple instances in Bleach. The fact that the swords can heal themselves makes this trope much more repeatable in the series, since no story time needs to be spent in getting the swords repaired.
Played straight at the beginning of the first major arc, when Rukia's brother and best friend turn up to take her back. The former ends up snapping Ichigo's unreleased Zanpakuto like a twig and piercing him in his "spiritual organs" (organs that produce spiritual energy), making him unable to create Reishi or restore his sword anymore.
Following that, Ichigo has to undergo Training from Hell to get his powers back. During the final stage of the aforementioned training, Ichigo has to rely on the broken remains of his Zanpakuto to fight Urahara, who uses his own Zanpakuto to effortlessly destroy what's left of Ichigo's until only the grip remains. Naturally, Ichigo becomes too afraid to keep fighting at this point, until the spirit of his Zanpakuto encourages Ichigo to call upon him for more power. In doing so, Ichigo learns the true name of his Zanpakuto, Zangetsu, and unlocks its Shikai state, not only restoring the blade but unleashing its true form and power.
Ichigo ends up destroying Renji's Zabimaru at the conclusion of their rematch. It takes a few days to restore itself while Renji recovers from his injuries.
After a rather hopeless battle, Kenpachi pierces Ichigo's chest through Zangetsu, which breaks it in two after Ichigo collapses. Zangetsu immediately restores itself after Ichigo gets up to continue fighting. Following the conclusion of their fight, Kenpachi's own Zanpakuto breaks in two.
As Sasakibe, Isane and Omaeda prepare their weapons to fight Ichigo, the latter interrupts them by effortlessly smashing Omaeda's Gegetsuburi to pieces while punching him in the gut, knocking him out instantly.
Renji has a Desperation Attack that can only be used when Zabimaru is broken, allowing him to attack the enemy with the individual pieces.
Ikkaku's Hozukimaru seems to get broken a lot. It's implied that the reason it's so fragile is because all of its power goes towards destructive force. When Edorad breaks it during their fight, Ikkaku decides to start fighting seriously and unleashes his own [[SuperMode Bankai, which ends up shattered to pieces after he kills Edorad. Much later Mayuri states that Akon was able to patch it up somehow, but that it was no longer as powerful as before.
The Hollow Metastacia has special tentacles that can instantly break a Zanpakuto once a day. Aaroniero ate Metastacia and gained this ability.
Rukia's Sode no Shirayuki ends up broken during her fight with Aaroniero, who skewers her and dangles her before him as he gloats. Rukia musters enough strength to use a technique she can only use when her sword is broken, which allows her to grow an ice blade straight through Aaroniero's head.
Tsukishima manages to break Senbonzakura in two while fighting Byakuya, who calmly picks up the broken blade and unleashes his Bankai. Tsukishima then lampshades how Byakuya seems to need the entire blade before he can use Bankai.
Used again much later when Haschwalth snaps Tensa Zangetsu. Then it's revealed that Reforged Blade is not an option for Zanpakuto in Bankai state. Ichigo has to work really hard to get a new Bankai.
In the final battle, Yhwach uses his powers to alter the future into one where Ichigo's Bankai breaks instantly. However, Tsukishima uses his powers to alter the past and repair it. Yhwach breaks Ichigo's Bankai again, but this time, it transforms into his original Shikai from before it was reforged and he kills Yhwach.

DEATH BATTLE!:
At the end of "He-Man vs. Lion-O", He-Man shatters the Sword of Omens with a punch and then knocks Lion-O out. He was content to leave Lion-O alone, but the Eye of Thundera gem in the hilt of the Sword of Omens comes to life and blasts him with lasers, forcing He-Man to crush it to dust to defend himself. Since the Eye of Thundera is the source of life for all ThunderCats, its destruction kills Lion-O and every other member of his race.
This trope proved to be the great equalizer in the match between Ryu Hayabusa and Strider Hiryu. While the former is a Walking Armory, the latter has a weapon that could easily cut through almost everything, thus the former was quickly reduced to their main weapon.
This trope happens in the match between Guts and Nightmare. Guts manages to destroy Soul Edge thanks to the Dragonslayer's capability to cut on the Astral Plane, and since Soul Edge is the source of Nightmare, it also seals Guts' victory.
Used dramatically in "Weiss Schnee vs. Mitsuru Kujiro". Weiss is cut down in the middle of a last Death or Glory Attack against Artemisia when her Aura is depleted. The last shot of the fight is Weiss' Myrtenaster lying broken in two pieces on the stone floor.
The fight between Sasuke Uchiha and Hiei has both fighters breaking the other's sword. Hiei's is broken first thanks to taking a direct Chidori, but Hiei is able to compensate by creating the Sword of Darkness Flame in time for the finishing Single-Stroke Battle. After said single stroke, Sasuke's Kusanagi shatters into pieces, and Sasuke can only stare at it in confusion before he suffers the same fate.
At the end of "She-Ra vs. Wonder Woman", She-Ra shatter's Wonder Woman's normally indestructible vambraces, but since they are actually a Power Limiter, this backfires. Wonder Woman then draws her atom-slicing sword and slices She-Ra's Sword of Protection in half, followed by slicing She-Ra's head off.
In the battle between Shadow the Hedgehog and Ryūko Matoi, the climax of the fight has this happen to Ryūko's Scissor Blades. She then gets shot back down to earth by Super Shadow's Chaos Spears, and is completely vaporized seconds later by Chaos Blast.
Near the end of "DIO vs. Alucard", DIO grabs Alucard's hands as the vampire is pressing and firing his two handguns, the Casull and the Jackal, repeatedly into DIO's mouth and neck and uses his flash-freeze, freezing and shattering both the guns and Alucard's arms into pieces. This being Alucard, the loss of weapons barely slows him down as he reforms his arms into shadowy weapons, though DIO still pulls through with the win.
The climax of the fight between Tanjiro Kamoda and Jonathan Joestar sees Tanjiro shattering Jonathan's sword Luck & Pluck with a well-aimed Sunbreathing-enhanced swing of his own blade. However, as Jonathan merely improvised with swordplay while his true talent lies in hand-to-hand combat, it's just a setback he recovers from. While Jonathan in turn fails to destroy Tanjiro's own sword in disarming him, Tanjiro has no such fallback and thus is left open to a fatal counterattack of fists.
In the beginning of Thor vs. Vegeta, Vegeta uses a Hakai to disintegrate Thor's axe, Jarnbjorn, but since Thor still has his hammer, Mjolnir, which is much more durable and useful, he is unfazed. Thor ends up killing Vegeta with Mjolnir.
The climax of the fight between Sauron and the Lich King sees Sauron shattering Frostmourne with a mighty swing of his mace. With the sword's destruction, Arthas' power quickly plummets as the souls trapped within the blade begin to escape, and he has no chance to retaliate as Sauron proceeds to absorb all the souls (including Arthas' own) and takes the win.
The end of the fight between Guts and Dimitri sees the heavily-injured Guts using the Berserker Armor to survive Dimitri's attempted finishing blow and strike with Dragonslayer hard enough to slice through the shaft of the spear Areadhbar, sending Dimitri to the ground. Dimitri grabs the glaive's head and brings it up in a final effort to defend himself, but Guts expires in mid-swing from bleed-out before he can strike the final blow, giving Dimitri the win.

Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles sees Raph, Leo, and Mikey's weapons get broken in a Curb-Stomp Battle at the start of the series (Donnie's bo staff is exempt, by virtue of being made of stronger material). Fortunately, by the end of the first episode, they've acquired new weapons, these ones with magic powers.

Tales of Berseria has an example revealed in a dramatic fashion: Rokurou's inferior Stormhowl is broken inside the sheathe, only a few inches are still attached to the handle. It's useless as a weapon (explaining why he couldn't fight with it earlier in the game) and he carries it for other reasons. And after the battle against the Final Boss, Velvet's wrist blade breaks against Artorius' sword though this doesn't slow her down in the slightest.

The Empire Strikes Back: Luke loses his father's lightsaber (as well as his hand) while fighting Darth Vader. Luckily, by Return of the Jedi he's built another one and has gotten an artificial hand to match. This isn't a completely straight example, as the lightsaber simply falls down a chasm rather than being destroyed (indeed, The Force Awakens has the weapon resurface after a matter of decades), but the symbolism is still intact because Luke lost his father's lightsaber for good at first.

Can happen as a matter of course in tabletop RPGs whose rules allow for weapon breakage in regular combat as a result of a fumble, critical hit, or even a simple outcome of "attack meets parry"; RuneQuest and The Dark Eye for instance are examples of the last in particular. Of course, in these games it then doesn't make much sense to get overly attached to a given individual "signature" weapon that the rules all but guarantee will break eventually in the first place, thus subverting the trope from that direction.

Dark Souls III's final DLC brings Slave Knight Gael's greatsword, which can be obtained via soul transposition of the DLC's final boss' soul. Unlike its full form, the Executioner's Greatsword, it has a pointed, jagged tip.
The Storm Ruler is technically considered a Greatsword, but since the blade has broken and been crudely sharpened to a point, it has nowhere near the strength requirements of other greatswords; indeed, any character in the game can pick it up. Because it's almost mandatory to use it on Yhorm the Giant, and hitting you with "surprise, you can't because your stats are bad" would be unfair even by Dark Souls standards.

As The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild is the first game in the series to make Breakable Weapons a core mechanic, it shouldn't be a surprise that a Wrecked Weapon shows up. That weapon is the Master Sword; before the Great Calamity, Link was faced with unending hordes of Guardians, and the Blade of Evil's Bane took enough damage to the point where parts of it rusted and chipped from all the nonstop combat. While the blade looks good as new in the present day, its adherence to Breath of the Wild's Breakable Weapons system* it can only be used for about forty swings, eighty around manifestations of Malice, before it runs out of energy with a ten-minute recharge period indicates that it still hadn't repaired itself completely.

This trope explains Hibiki's strange powerset in Symphogear. During the ZweiWing Tragedy, pieces of Kanade's armor, which is part of the relic Gungnir, pierces Hibiki, giving her access to the power years later. However, since the pieces were so small, Hibiki cannot access the usual spear weaponry using the relic grants. Thus, she ends up developing a fighting style around the energies she can create trying to summon it.

Lyrical Nanoha:
Nanoha and Fate's wands crack each other in Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha. In the second season (Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha A's), both Nanoha and Fate have their weapons heavily damaged in separate duels against the new antagonists.
Fate had a version symbolic of her mental state near the end of the first season when she dropped her weapon in shock of finding out her true nature and, combined with the damage it had received from her battle against Nanoha, it shattered upon hitting the ground. It remained that way until she recovered from her Heroic BSoD and jump-started its self-repair function.
Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha StrikerS:
Taken to a new level when Subaru does this to herself right after her Robotic Reveal by pushing her device past the breaking point after her Berserk Button is pressed.
Vita breaks Graf Eisen trying to break through the shielding on the Saint Cradle's engine. However, Eisen's tip lodges in the engine after her last attack, eventually shattering the engine.
Before this, Vita breaks Graf Eisen fighting against Zest.
In the FORCE manga Signum does this to Laevatein by trying to fight a new villain with heavy Anti-Magic powers and a body tough enough to provoke the mighty Belkan sword to crack like a cookie; obviously, things do not end well for our beloved Lady of War.

Tyki Mikk of D.Gray-Man demonstrates how powerful he is by destroying protagonist Allen Walker's Innocence single-handedly after we've seen that barely anything can even scratch it. This is particularly nasty because Allen's Innocence happens to be his left arm, and it's also been made very clear that (1) Allen can't be an Exorcist without an Innocence, and (2) forcing anyone to synchronize with Innocence that's not destined to be theirs is at best fatal. He gets better, and his Innocence is stronger for it.
The Millennium Earl's goal in early volumes is to destroy all the Innocence. It's still a secondary priority, as there were only 109 Innocences at first, they can't be replaced (although they can sometimes be repaired), and they're the only things that can hurt his Akuma.
Also, Kanda's and Lavi's weapons break in the Ark arc which prevents them from fighting in the lvl4 arc. Or that's what you thought.

Any player of Mabinogi has had a weapon wear out in the middle of a dungeon at least once.
Also, you can get a worn-out weapon repaired, but the repair process has a chance of permanently damaging the weapon. Eventually the weapon will become unusable, usually after you've spent several times the weapon's retail value on upgrades for it.

Besides the fact that he tends to actually transform it into a weapon with alchemy all the time, he needs to clap his hands together to use alchemy in the first place (on a whim, anyway), making him completely helpless if it breaks or is severed (granted, you could say the same for his other, real arm, too...).

In the early chapters of Rave Master, a member of Demon Card hunting Shiba and the Rave stones fights against Haru and snaps his sword, "Ten Powers" (in some translations, "Ten Commandments"), the sword with ten forms, clean off at the hilt, prompting Haru to seek out a master blacksmith to reforge it better than ever. Later in the story, Haru fights Let of the Palace Guardians and Let breaks the sword in half with a punch. Rather than be distraught over this development, Haru grabs one part in each hand and unveils the weapon's fifth form, "Blue Crimson", which actually is two swords. When he shifts the sword back to its default form, it is undamaged. The sword is destroyed for good near the end after Musica forges an even better one for Haru since the sword's creator believes it is no longer needed in the world.

Fairly significant in the Violinist of Hameln, where the titular violinist appears helpless when said magical violin is destroyed; right up until the point where he crushes the foe's head with one hand in a demonic rage.
The manga takes the concept and runs with it, giving the other characters their chance to shine as they daydream about taking over the entire series. After all, if Hamel's violin is destroyed, what's the point of the manga being called Violinist of Hameln? Better make way for The Adventures of Flute or Tron Bone Z...

When Gordon Freeman's crowbar gets destroyed in Half-Life 2, you know it's time to get vengeance on Breen. Luckily enough, the process that destroys your trusty hardware also gives you the perfect weapon for the job.
Though considering how the Zero Point Energy Field Manipulator has apparently become Gordon's new weapon of choice, this could also possibly be considered a very rare inanimate version of Take Up My Sword.
Gordon's signature crowbar was never really one-of-a-kind anyway — he went through two in the first game alone - so he could have been very likely to obtain a new one in Episode 3 or Half-Life 3, assuming one of them ever comes out.

Final Fantasy Tactics Advance has a few different abilities spread out through the job classes that can steal, or outright destroy, enemy weapons and armor. This can be a double whammy, as not only is the unit disarmed, but if the unit is still learning a new ability, then destroying the weapon means they stop learning. This can be especially aggravating if the weapon is a relatively rare item that you only have one of that can't be purchased in shops.
The original Final Fantasy Tactics has a few classes whose abilities revolve around breaking your weapons or other equipment. This drastically decreases your stats, is expensive or even impossible to replace, and can be quite problematic if in a series of battles. Samurai accept the possibility that their katanas may break if they use their special skills.

RWBY:
A Volume 3 flashback reveals that, as soon as Cinder acquires half of the power she seeks, she burns her own weapon to ash as a power play. It is an example of Cinder sacrificing parts of herself for more power; from that point on she uses her abilities to create Breakable Weapons as needed. The fragility of these weapons helps highlight the emptiness that lies behind her façade of power and strength.
During the Volume 3 finale, Pyrrha forces Cinder into a throat lock with her spear, Miló. To escape this, Cinder has to summon the Wyvern and super-heat the spear into shattering while Pyrrha's distracted by the charging Grimm. This symbolises the turning point of the fight. In straight combat, Pyrrha is a match for Cinder, but their fight after this becomes more magical, with Pyrrha's Semblance versus Cinder's magic. Magic outperforms even powerful Semblances, and so Pyrrha — like her weapon — is destroyed. In Volume 4, Jaune gets the remains of her weapons reforged into his shield and armour as part of his Tragic Keepsake.
A Volume 6 flashback reveals that Maria used to wield two kama known as Life and Death that could combine into a double-ended scythe. While she still retains one that acts as her walking cane, its partner was broken by Tock. On this day, she lost her will to fight as well as her eyesight and weapon; while she lived, the Grimm Reaper died. Maria only returns to the front lines as an elderly woman to become Ruby's mentor; while still an impressive fighter, she and her surviving kama are only a fraction of what they used to be.
In Volume 6, Blake's sword is cut in half by her opponent, leaving her with only the sheath to fight with. To her opponent, this symbolises that Blake has nothing, and is totally alone and abandoned. After destroying her sword, Adam quickly defeats her and demands to know what it's like to feel alone. However, Blake's feline hearing has detected Yang's approach, so she protects herself with her clone Semblance just long enough for Yang to arrive. Even with Yang's help, the fight only ends when Yang and Blake each grab one half of the broken sword and stab Adam from two different directions. This symbolises how Adam broke the both of them, but they still found a way to overcome that damage and come back stronger.
In the Volume 8 finale, Jaune and Cinder fight over the fate of the Winter Maiden, leading to Jaune's sword being destroyed as a symbol of how he's been forced to break his ideals and his heart in the process. It remains broken throughout Volume 9, and so does Jaune. Cinder fatally wounding the Winter Maiden causes her to ask Jaune to finish the deed so that she can choose a successor for the power and prevent it from going by default to Cinder. The sword breaks at the point where it is stained with the Maiden's blood.

Highlander:
Immortals occasionally have their swords broken during a fight. Normally this happens when they're losing badly, and they get killed immediately afterwards. In one episode, it happened to Richie when running away, and he later had to figure out how to get a replacement.
This was used to show Katanas Are Just Better in the flashback episode where Duncan gets his katana. Having just washed up on shore in old Japan, Duncan brandishes his sword, a naval cutlass, at Hideo Koto, a samurai who is wielding a katana. Koto thinks Duncan is threatening him, and responds with a slash of his katana that breaks Duncan's sword off just short of the hilt. The dumbfounded look that Duncan gives the now 2-inch-long blade is hilarious.

Battle B-Daman used it to the point of frustration to replace the heroes' old marble-shooting chibi robots with new ones built around a new system.

Harry Potter:
Early in Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, Ron Weasley gets his wand (a hand-me-down from his brother Charlie) damaged when he crashes the family's flying car into a Whomping Willow, leaving it prone to backfiring. This, however, comes in handy when Gilderoy Lockhart steals it so he can erase both Ron's and Harry's memories, and ends up wiping his own memory. He then gets a new wand for the rest of the series.
In Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, Dementors invading the Quidditch pitch make Harry lose consciousness and nearly fall to his death. When he wakes up, not only is he ashamed for losing, but he learns his broom was smashed to bits by the Whomping Willow.
The "Oh shit!" factor is quite high in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows when Harry's wand, the special powers of which had saved him twice over in battles against Voldemort, is blown in half and (almost) irreparably damaged during a fight. Fortunately, he uses the Elder Wand to repair it.
In the film, after Harry defeats Voldemort and gains possession of the Elder Wand, he snaps it in half so it can never be used again.

Downplayed in Tenchi Muyo!. When Tenchi finds the sword his ancestor Yosho used to seal the demon away, he swings it around and accidentally smashes it into a rock, shattering the rusted blade. He keeps the broken hilt and hopes that his grandpa doesn't find out. As it turns out, the blade was a decoration and the actual laser-bladed sword still worked fine.

In Armed Girl's Machiavellism this happens repeatedly, especially in the Hokkai arc. While there's no long-term effect, as the characters are able to quickly replace their weapons, the moment one is broken leaves the user helpless in the current fight.
Subverted in the fight between Haruna and Rin, as when the shaft of Haruna's poleaxe is broken he simply pulls out his backsword... With which he has considerably less skill.

The Dresden Files:
In Changes, a vampire assassin destroys Harry's cherished car, the Blue Beetle, as well as his staff (which happened to be in the trunk). Even several books later, he's metaphysically hamstrung by the loss, since he hasn't had time to build a new staff, and is much less effective at controlled, long-distance magic as a result.
In Skin Game, Fidelacchius, the Sword of Faith, is broken by Nicodemus when Murphy tries to use it in rage. Butters manages to reforge it... into a lightsaber. Thanks to his faith. In Star Wars.

Power Rangers:
Due to Stock Footage, a lot of the Sentai examples go for their respective PR series. Most notably, Deker's story is different from Juzo's, so why his sword breaking is a huge plot point turns out to be very different when everything is revealed.

Power Rangers Wild Force: Partway through the series, Cole has his Cool Bike ruined protecting a child who turns out to be the human form of Animus, Lord of the Wild Zords. After the heroes learn that and pass a Secret Test of Character, Cole is rewarded with a new bike based on a different Wild Zord. It flies. It is definitely merchandising-based, but nobody much cares.
Power Rangers S.P.D.: In the finale, Emperor Gruum's Last Villain Stand ends pretty conclusively when Cruger breaks his spear in two.
Extremely common in Megazord battles with monsters. Usually it's the monster's weapon that breaks and the monster just shrugs it off and switches to a Plan B attack (that may or may not do more damage than their initial weapon). On rare occasions, such as in Power Rangers Zeo, the monster Main Drain breaks the Zeo Megazord's power sword and then drains all of its energy. Luckily, Billy designed a new zord that managed to beat the monster and be the hot new toy kids wanted.

Final Fantasy XIV:
In the Stormblood expansion, your first fight with the Big Bad of this storyline, Zenos, causes the katana he was using to shatter. It's ambiguous if it shattered because of your strength or Zenos' stupidly powerful strength
In the "End of an Era" video, we watch as Louisoux's attempt to recapture Bahamut fails and the resulting backlash shatters the mage's staff. Minfilia keeps the wrecked remains in the Scions' base.
The start of the original Relic questline has you trying to hunt down a legendary blade, which has been taken. Once you retrieve it, the blacksmith notes how terrible of a shape it's in from its disuse and wrongful possession, forcing you into a quest to reforge it.
The opening cinematic for Shadowbringers features the Warrior of Light/Darkness fighting a sin eater using weapons from every class they represented up to that point. The sin eater breaks each and every one of them before the Warrior becomes a Dark Knight.
Near the end of the 5.4 MSQ, Zenos discards his old signature weapon, the Ame-no-Habakiri katana, callously tossing it aside and snapping the blade underfoot as he decides to forge a new weapon for his eventual rematch with the Warrior of Light.
There's a game mechanic where the character's gear and weapons all have a health meter of sorts. The more you use them, the lower the gear. Should they reach 0%, they "break" and their usefulness is cut down in half.

The Mandalorian
The titular Mandalorian's Cool Starship, the Razor Crest, is destroyed in the second season. In personal weapon matters his signature disrupter rifle is destroyed with it. This forces him to rely much more on the help of his tenuous allies and the Mandalorian spear that survived the wreckage.
The third season finale sees the destruction of the Dark Saber by Moff Gideon. As the Dark Saber had long been a symbol of Mandalore tradition that was abused by Gideon for his own gain, its destruction signifies the end of many old ways but also the beginning of others.

Inuyasha:
The sword Tetsusaiga suppresses the main character's demon blood, so breaking it leaves nothing to prevent him from going into a mindless, feral rage whenever his life is threatened. He eventually gets the sword reforged. Then it suddenly becomes insanely heavy and he can hardly use it. Once he masters using it again, he has a new attack, the Backlash Wave.
Sesshomaru's Tokijin is broken in battle with Moryomaru. Sesshomaru discarded the pieces as it wasn't worth repairing a blade that was clearly inadequate.
Later on, through a series of events, Sesshomaru's Tenseiga ends up getting shattered and discarded within a void leading to the underworld. It returns to him mere moments later completely restored, cementing it's status as a Clingy MacGuffin supreme.
Bankotsu's halberd Banryu ends up getting blasted to pieces along with Bankotsu himself thanks to Inuyasha's Backlash Wave. Interestingly, Bankotsu had been such trouble up to that point because as a human using a man-made weapon, he had no demonic aura to speak of. Then he made the mistake of upgrading the Banryu into a demon sword, thereby giving it an aura to reflect...
Several times in the course of the series, Sango's Hiraikotsu will get cut in half, chewed up, or otherwise rendered unfit for battle, forcing her to return to her demon-slaying village to repair it. While it's usually more of a downplayed example due to her being able to fix it herself without much fuss, the final time it happens in the series requires her to go on a spirit journey of sorts to quell the demon souls that reside within the Hiraikotsu due to them feeling betrayed by how the weapon got destroyed (Sango slathering it in corrosive poison slave and then feeding it to a bone-eating demon who had already taken several bites out of it.) After she and the demons come to an agreement, the Hiraikotsu is reforged for a final time and granted brand new powers that put it back on par with everyone else's weapons right when the Hiraikotsu was beginning to wane in effectiveness.
Kikyou and Kagome have both gone through several sacred bows over time, with one instance of Kikyou's bow being snapped being used to reveal that Naraku has removed his human heart, allowing him to bypass Kikyou's spiritual barriers and make an attempt on her life.

Daikatana's third episode consists of the characters running around sixth-century Norway, collecting pieces of a sword called the "Purifier" in the hopes that restoring it will cure the king that owned it of insanity that has afflicted him since he first broke it. Given that it's a magical weapon, much like the game's eponymous Daikatana, it works.

Homestuck thoroughly subverts Katanas Are Just Better when Dave Strider gets curbstomped by Bro, wrecking his CHEAP PIECE OF SHIT sword in the process. Interestingly, due to the in-universe mechanics of weapon-wielding, this changes his STRIFE SPECIBUS to One-Half Bladekind, which only allows Dave to use ''broken'' swords to fight now.
Although Future Dave seems to have gotten around this by combining a broken sword with his time turntables to create CALEDSCRATCH, a broken sword that can be rewound back to when it was whole.
When Alpha Timeline Dave makes it to the point of retrieving the original Caledfwlch (i.e., Excalibur) from the stone, he deliberately breaks it in the process instead of pulling it out "like a hero".
It's worth noting that the Wrecked Weapons don't seem to decrease his effectiveness in combat so much as change the symbolism of his fights. The broken blade symbol relates to Dave's quest arc: coming to terms with not being The Hero like John and asserting himself as an individual instead of as a shadow of his older brother.
Ruined objects are a symbol of Time, which is Dave's aspect. A few of his swords also seem to have the ability to be shifted backwards in time, before they were broken.
Played straight when Kanaya nabs Eridan's science wand to debunk it before chainsawing its owner in half.

This shows how Human weapons are ineffective against Yoma and only the Claymore swords that give the warriors like Clare their name are up to the task, especially because they're made of Thunderbolt Iron.

An anti-climactic battle in Samurai Champloo: In the last episode, when Jin and Mugen finally have the showdown promised when they began traveling together, they break each others' swords in half on the first pass, then collapse from previous injuries. Unusually, this does not cause either one to fly into a rage. Rather, it gives them an honorable exit from a promise both now recognize as silly and destructive.

Kamen Rider Ryuki: Played for laughs in the pilot episode. Shinji goes into battle before gaining a contract monster, and the flimsy-looking sword he gets as a default weapon breaks from an Offhand Backhand (technically a swipe from a Giant Spider's foreleg).

Mazinger Z's Rocket Punch is its most popular and most iconic weapon (being both the Trope Maker and Trope Namer). Whenever Mazinger-Z's fists were destroyed or shattered in one fight, you knew Kouji was going to be in trouble. Maybe the first time this happened was when Kouji was fighting Spartan K5 and the Mechanical Beast easily ran its trident through its fist before beating the crap out of Mazinger-Z. A very memorable instance also happened in the Mazinger-Z versus Great General of Darkness, when General Juuma caught his flying fist before eating it.

The climax of the fight between Sauron and the Lich King sees Sauron shattering Frostmourne with a mighty swing of his mace. With the sword's destruction, Arthas' power quickly plummets as the souls trapped within the blade begin to escape, and he has no chance to retaliate as Sauron proceeds to absorb all the souls (including Arthas' own) and takes the win.

The Order of the Stick:
When Xykon destroys Roy's sword, a family heirloom, Roy goes into an Unstoppable Rage and dispatches the lich with his bare hands... at least temporarily.
The trope is subverted earlier in strip #17: after failing a spot check and becoming surrounded, Belkar accidentally breaks Elan's Rapier with a well-placed "Damnit!" (mentioned earlier: "I could sunder that thing by speaking too loudly!"). A broken sword has much less effect on Elan than it does on Roy for several reasons: 1) Roy specializes in the use of his weapon, and Elan's is mostly for looking cool; 2) Elan wasn't very effective to begin with.
Much later, in #607, Crystal slices through Haley's bow, forcing her to resort to her other main weapon, her wits.
Elan tends to lose rapiers regularly; his +3 silver rapier is later sundered by his own father, General Tarquin.
And just a bit after that Crystal and Bozzok break their signature weapons when Crystal turns on him. This is probably so that their parts are unambiguously over and done with.

In My Huntsman Academia, Izuku wrecks the right gauntlet of his weapon, Emerald Gust, with his first use of One For All, warping the sturdy material so thoroughly that the only reason why he was able to get his hand out was that his fingers were thoroughly broken as well.

In Warframe, after the events of the Second Dream questline, you get the Broken-War, a shattered version of the War used by the Shadow Stalker.

In Neverwinter Nights 2 much of the plot revolves around recovering shards of a silver sword used to fight the King of Shadows. Said sword exploded and embedded a silver shard in the player character. The fragments must be reformed to fight the second coming of the King of Shadows.
The plot of the Mask of the Betrayer expansion carries on from this exact same sword, which was also the key to Akachi the Betrayer's backdoor into the afterlife and a central tool of his war to bring down the Wall of the Faithless.

In the first season finale for The Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes, Loki shatters Captain America's shield using the Odinforce. Cap is later shown to have collected the pieces and it takes more than half a season for it to finally get fixed by Wakandan scientists, the only people who know how to deal with vibranium and its alloys. The shield is briefly replaced by a holographic version designed and built by Iron Man, although it turns out that Cap was in fact a Skrull during the entire time the holo-shield was used, and the real Cap much prefers the original.

Shadows over Meridian:
The rebels getting their weapons damaged by the Shadowkhan weapons of Phobos' loyalists does its work in making them realize how out of their depth they are against Queen Kage and her army.
After Jade's army turns the tide of the battle at Snowpoint and she brings an avalanche down on the Sky Hunters, Vera finds her bow trashed, symbolizing the truth Albel forces her to face; they've lost the battle that was supposed to end the siege of Snowpoint and must regroup.
When Vera – injured and consumed by vengeance to the point of having given up on her friends – finally reaches the Mogriffs' nest, her new bow is charred from the explosion she caused while fighting off Jade, and all she has left is one dagger. All she can do anymore is to hold Bladebeak hostage when she's surrounded by the Mogriffs and Phobos' soldiers before Jade arrives to restrain her. Things keep getting worse for her afterwards as her insane actions prove beyond a shadow of doubt that she's Her Own Worst Enemy.

In Super Robot Wars, this is a common reason for someone to get their Mid-Season Upgrade: since the machine needs to be completely rebuilt anyway, might as well make it stronger. Some examples that don't fall under this:
In Super Robot Wars: Original Generation Gaiden, Sanger Zonvolt's trusty Zankantou is shattered on the mech of Shura Magnus. Magnus expected this to win the fight for him, until Sanger revealed that the DyGenGuar's original weapons (which were nonfunctional when it was first activated, hence the Zankantou), had been repaired. Magnus promptly eats a General Blaster to the face.
Shin Super Robot Wars: As the Voltes team sorties in Scenario 14 of Space Route, the aliens spring their trap: the Namazunga flies over to wreck their Ultramagnetic Generators. Voltes is in dire straights to say the very least, and the group loses touch with Voltes as they slow the transport down to try to allow an emergency landing. After a quick rescue by the others, Ken'ichi is the first to wake up, disoriented and in considerable pain from whatever the bad guys did. He frantically asks after his other pilots, who are still out cold, though Megumi wakes up in short order. The bad news is that the Ultramagnetic Generators of all the Volt machines are toast, and they can't even move, much less combine. Ken'ichi is heartbroken, seeing as how they just got good at combining and all. Nothing for it but returning to Japan!

Marvel Cinematic Universe
In Thor: Ragnarok, Hela effortlessly catches Thor's hammer Mjölnir and crushes it to dust, to Thor's utter shock.
In Avengers: Infinity War, after Thanos' forces curb-stomp the Asgardians off-screen, a critically injured Heimdall is seen with his sword Hofund shattered.
Avengers: Endgame:
Early in the final battle, Thanos takes several chunks out of Steve's shield, hacking away at it with his sword until there's basically half of it left. Steve gets it repaired or replaced later, before handing it over to Sam.
Midway through the battle, Wanda breaks Thanos' sword in half with her telekinesis, leaving him temporarily defenseless as she lifts him into the air and tries to rip him apart from the inside out as revenge for Vision's death. He gets it back later, though, and uses it to destroy the quantum tunnel in Luis's work van so that Captain Marvel can't fly the Infinity Gauntlet through it.
Thor: Love and Thunder: Jane Foster uses the repaired Mjölnir to shatter Gorr the God Butcher's Necrosword, but when he performs a Summon to Hand, the weapon starts to repair itself. Undaunted, Jane unleashes a lightning blast that reduces the Necrosword to dust, truly destroying it.

Dungeons & Dragons:
The Sunder feat tree in 3/3.5 Edition lets any GM pull this against the players. There's a certain Jerkass-ish aspect to using it, though, as combat encounters are scaled to assume a minimum value of gear — in other words, a fight appropriate for a 10th-level party is appropriate for that party with full gear worth at least 49,000 gold pieces each. And given the costs of a good magic weapon, having that villain break yours means you may have just seen a massive setback in your effectiveness.
Taken into account in the swordmage class or Dungeons & Dragons 4th edition. A bound sword can be reformed from a single fragment with an hour of meditation.

Digimon Codex: It is possible for Battle Gear to break during a Codex match if they take too much damage or are pushed too far beyond their limits.

Starting in Batman: Arkham City one of the advanced combo moves is "Disarm and Destroy", in which you rip an enemy's weapon (be it shield, knife, gun, bat, or stun baton) out of their hand and destroy it. It's one of the more useful moves, as using "Instant Takedown" on (for example) a shield mook knocks the mook out, but leaves the shield for someone else to pick up complicating the fight.
Invoked in Batman: Arkham Knight, as the titular knight destroys the Batmobile, which had been a critical and constant part of the game. Subverted only a few scenes later, as it is revealed Alfred had a spare.

In Star Trek: Deep Space Nine's final season, the Dominion got a major power-up when the Breen joined their forces — a point driven home when they destroyed the Defiant, which had been the good guys' own power-up a few seasons earlier. Sisko was particularly attached to it, having had a hand in its construction.
In one of the episodes leading up to the finale, Worf challenges Chancellor Gowron over the latter's accused dishonorable and unwise strategy during the Dominion War to pursue a vendetta against a perceived rival in Martok. Gowron has Worf on the ropes, having wrecked his bat'leth. Worf still wins anyway, when he stabs two broken pointy bits into Gowron's flanks, killing him.
This happened the first time Worf and Gowron dueled in 'Apocalypse Rising.' Worf managed to cut Gowron's bat'leth in two down the middle with a knife.
And how Kang met his ending fighting The Albino by swinging away and driving his bat'leth right into a wall shattering it, leaving him defenseless.

Highlander
In Highlander III: The Sorcerer, Connor's katana shatters due to him and Kane violating the "no fighting on holy ground" rule.
After Duncan in Highlander: The Source hurls his katana through The Guardian's neck, he snaps it in two and even impales Joe Dawson through the chest with what's left of it. Duncan then picks up a pair of butterfly swords for the rest of the film.

The Legend of Zelda:
As The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild is the first game in the series to make Breakable Weapons a core mechanic, it shouldn't be a surprise that a Wrecked Weapon shows up. That weapon is the Master Sword; before the Great Calamity, Link was faced with unending hordes of Guardians, and the Blade of Evil's Bane took enough damage to the point where parts of it rusted and chipped from all the nonstop combat. While the blade looks good as new in the present day, its adherence to Breath of the Wild's Breakable Weapons system* it can only be used for about forty swings, eighty around manifestations of Malice, before it runs out of energy with a ten-minute recharge period indicates that it still hadn't repaired itself completely.
Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity does not have breakable weapons, but Link's regular sword is broken while fighting off an ambush. Right next to the Master Sword, waiting in its pedestal.
The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom: Ganondorf immediately shows how powerful he is by almost killing Link with one blast of his dark magic and completely shattering the Master Sword's blade. Not only that, but he also breaks nearly every weapon across Hyrule, thereby giving an explanation why Link can't just reuse all the weapons from the last game, and making his Fuse ability vital for fighting enemies. While Zelda manages to repair the Master Sword, doing so required her to soak it in her holy power for tens of thousands of years as she takes The Slow Path back to the present by turning herself into an immortal dragon.

The vehicular variation comes up in the X-Wing Series book Starfighters of Adumar. Much is made in the initial portion of the book about how superior the X-wing is compared to their local counterparts, the Blade-class fighter. When the Big Bad convinces the perator to turn on Wedge's pilots and exile them, their X-wings are impounded, and they are forced to fight several pitched battles using borrowed Blades instead — including a four-on-four combat against Imperial TIE Interceptors, which are on par with the X-wing and therefore have a huge advantage over their Blades. Once they manage to seize the hanger where the X-wings are stored, though, they return and lay a Curb-Stomp Battle on the enemy forces.

Zaeed of Mass Effect 2 has a broken rifle named Jessie that was the most reliable weapon he'd ever used until it finally jammed and would not fire anymore. Zaeed laments that he'd give anything for "one last mission with that shitty old rifle." If he's still alive at the end of Mass Effect 3 you can learn that he's custom-ordered all the parts required to repair his rifle, so he can take Jessie along for the last battle.
Shepard pulls a heroic variant on Kai Leng. If you take the Renegade interrupt after the final fight with him, Shepard will spin around and smash his sword to bits with a backhand, then draw an omniblade and gut Leng like a fish.

In Bubblegum Crisis, Priss' motoslave armor is destroyed by Largo's Hyperboomers, one of them crushing its head underfoot, and her hardsuit absolutely trashed to the point that it falls apart around her. Under the original script, this would have been followed by Priss being killed due to the voice actor's contractual complications. However, Priss was saved by an 11th-hour fan-led campaign to save the character. In an ironic turnabout, when her new armor and motoslave conveniently show up in time to save her, the first thing the new motoslave does is crush the head of the Hyperboomer that destroyed its predecessor.

Rebuild World:
Akira's augmented suit and bike are destroyed during his fight with the three Relic Thieves and the rest of his weapons are confiscated and taken apart by the government as evidence of the battle. Luckily for him, the government is willing to pay him 100 million aurum to keep him quiet about the whole thing, which lets him replace everything with even better equipment.
This pretty much happens Once a Season as far as the Web Novels of the series go. It gets to be enough of a problem that Akira starts being Crazy-Prepared, taking measures like getting six of the same rifle each with their own Deflector Shields, and after he takes up Sword and Gun fighting, he gets a sword with disposable liquid metal blades held in place by a force field.

Magnus expected this to win the fight for him, until Sanger revealed that the DyGenGuar's original weapons (which were nonfunctional when it was first activated, hence the Zankantou), had been repaired. Magnus promptly eats a General Blaster to the face.

Assassin's Creed: Odyssey has the Spear of Leonidas which, when held by the Spartan king during the Battle of Thermopylae, was a proper spear that he fought with. After his death, it was destroyed and only the head was remaining which their grandchild, the Eagle Bearer, used to carve their way across the battlefields of Greece in either open combat or in stealth. It's also an Isu artifact that can be upgraded with each member of the Cult of Kosmos that are killed.

In ThunderCats (1985), the Sword of Omens is first broken when Lion-O is tricked into using it to attack a fellow Thundercat; repairing it is said to be nearly impossible, and indeed proves to be nearly so. It took bribing a villain to reforge it, and they still had to escape him with the sword afterward. Much later, the sword is broken again in the introduction of new villain Tug-Mug, whose life on a moon with high gravity has given him tremendous strength. This occurrence slightly twists the trope, as the sword is promptly repaired by nearly-as-new hero Bengali, demonstrating his own impressive skills as a blacksmith, which means the heroes now have the means to make repairs regularly.

Kamen Rider Ryuki: Played for laughs in the pilot episode. Shinji goes into battle before gaining a contract monster, and the flimsy-looking sword he gets as a default weapon breaks from an Offhand Backhand (technically a swipe from a Giant Spider's foreleg).
Kamen Rider Kiva: Early in the series, the Moth Fangire tries to block Kiva's Garulu Howling Slash finisher with her own sword. His sword breaks hers before shattering her body.
Kamen Rider Gaim: In the final battle between Kouta and Kaito, Kouta catches and breaks Kaito's weapon - his sword as Lord Baron, the Banaspear in the alternate future that's reflecting their current battle - and uses the broken piece to fatally stab Kaito.

Transformers: Prime:
At the end of the Five-Episode Pilot, Optimus has one of his arm-blades broken by Megatron in their first all-out fight.
Optimus gets one of his blades broken again, also by Megatron, in the lead-up to the first season finale. This time, it stays broken for the following six episodes, as he's too busy dealing with crises or having amnesia to get it fixed.
The Star Saber was destroyed by Megatron the episode after it was introduced. Given that in its introduction it sliced a mountain in half, this outcome was not especially surprising. It's reforged later but spends most of the following season out of the heroes' hands.

Bard gets the Black Arrow (the one thing that can kill Smaug), heroic music swells...and then he sees that his bow is broken.
Tauriel attempts to stop Thranduril (her own king) from withdrawing from the battle and even draws her bow. He instantly slices it in half with his sword.
Thorin engages multiple Orcs, and eventually his sword is broken. He proceeds to use a broken sword to continue killing Orcs until he loses that too.

Subverted in the Champions comic book when Flare teams up with the Galloping Galooper, a non-powered hero who "fights with his great-grandfather's cavalry sword". His blade is broken in the fight, but when Flare consoles him over the loss of the heirloom he explains that his great-grandfather made swords, and he has dozens more at home.
The "figuratively neutered" part of the trope comes in from a different angle when she clobbers him in response to his ham-handed attempt to talk her into another sort of "consolation".

During ReBoot's second season finale, Megabyte crushes Glitch right before stranding Bob in the Web. This makes Glitch useless during season 3 until Bob fuses with it. And even then the damage to glitch is so bad that the fusion is causing both of them to slowly die.

In an episode of Batman: The Animated Series, assassin-for-hire Bane makes his presence in Gotham known by smashing the Batmobile with his bare hands.
The same episode introducing Bane also turns this trope into a Chekhov's Gun. During their battle, Batman tosses a Batarang at Bane, who catches it and crushes it. Batman ends up using the crushed weapon to damage Bane's Venom Feed, causing him to have a major overload of the drug.
In a later episode, the one-shot villain Lockup puts a boot (wheel clamp) on it.

Symbolically done in Tiger Mask with the title character's original Finishing Moves, including the "figuratively neutered" part and, symbolically, the Reforged Blade part represented by a new finisher:
When Great Zuma defeats the Ultra Tiger Drop, created to have his own personal finisher that does not resort to Tiger's Cave-style murderous attacks, Tiger Mask is left effectively helpless. While he ends winning thanks to Oki's plan, now the world knows how to counter his move, and when provoked or cornered he instinctively reverts to his training and old combat style until he comes up with the Fujiyama Tiger Breaker.
When Miracle 3 defeats the Fujiyama Tiger Breaker Tiger Mask takes it better, as only Miracle 3 has the combination of gymnast-level agility and immense strength necessary to do it... But the fight between the move and the counter completely exhausted Tiger Mask's legs, preventing him from kicking or even moving properly for the rest of the fight and leading to his defeat. This defeat at the hands of Tiger's Cave strongest assassin effectively cripples him in fear for his life, and he retires until he sees his disciple Teppei Oiwa filling in for him in the attempt to not end his legend and what it represents, leading to Tiger Mask reforging himself (by using the same exercises he had been subjected to at Tiger's Cave) and creating a brand new finisher, the Tiger V, in time for the rematch.
It had been attempted a number of times with the Fujiyama Tiger Breaker, but any attempt before Miracle 3 had failed or backfired horribly on the opponent due to Tiger Mask seeing it coming and coming up with variations to neutralize any counter. Also, this move was used again, because, as said above, only Miracle 3 could counter it.
Subverted when the Tiger V is countered during the Heel World Championship, as El Sicodelico succeeds only because Tiger Mask was injured and couldn't perform it properly. Then Double Subverted when Tiger Mask finds himself unable to fight back against his opponent's superior skill until Sicodelico purposefully uses an illegal move to provoke him into using fouls he wanted to study, at which point Sicodelico is quickly annihilated due to Tiger Mask's experience in fouls. The reforged part comes when El Sicodelico explains why he was even there: using fouls is actually legal in wrestling as long as it's stopped before three seconds, and he, unable to use them properly, wanted to study and learn them facing the foulest wrestlers in the world, inspiring Tiger Mask in doing just that and finally leave behind the nightmare of his past as a Tiger's Cave pupil.

The fight between Sasuke Uchiha and Hiei has both fighters breaking the other's sword. Hiei's is broken first thanks to taking a direct Chidori, but Hiei is able to compensate by creating the Sword of Darkness Flame in time for the finishing Single-Stroke Battle. After said single stroke, Sasuke's Kusanagi shatters into pieces, and Sasuke can only stare at it in confusion before he suffers the same fate.

DC Extended Universe:
In Wonder Woman (2017), Ares blocks Diana's Godkiller sword with his hand and the blade crumbles to dust. He explains it is not the actual Godkiller, Diana herself is, as only a god can kill a god.
In Justice League (2017), Steppenwolf's axe gets frozen by Superman, setting up Wonder Woman to shatter it.
In Aquaman (2018), Orm breaks Arthur's trident during their Combat by Champion in the Ring of Fire. The rest of the movie involves Arthur finding the mythical Trident of Atlan which, as Mera points out, he was supposed to do before fighting Orm. However, Arthur does find the Trident of Atlan and uses it to completely shatter Orm's trident in the Final Battle.
In Zack Snyder's Justice League, Ares broke Darkseid's halberd in two with a battleaxe during the battle against invading forces from Apokolips in ancient times. Unlike in the original film, Superman freezes Steppenwolf's axe and shatters it himself.

This appears to be Saionji's fate in Undocumented Features. First, when Kaitlyn Hutchins attacks him with the Hyakken no Arashi, his blade breaks. Then after becoming her apprentice, he fights Lafarga, performs the Hyakken no Arashi himself, and his blade breaks after he's done. A while after that, he fights Sith Lord Psi Cop Roger Tremayne, and gets his sword cut in half by his lightsaber. Is it any wonder after this record that he claimed Tremayne's lightsaber for himself?

Early in Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, Ron Weasley gets his wand (a hand-me-down from his brother Charlie) damaged when he crashes the family's flying car into a Whomping Willow, leaving it prone to backfiring. This, however, comes in handy when Gilderoy Lockhart steals it so he can erase both Ron's and Harry's memories, and ends up wiping his own memory. He then gets a new wand for the rest of the series.

This can be a recurring event in Middle-earth: Shadow of War. When Talion loses to an Olog-Hai, said Olog can decide to break Talion's sword to further humiliate him, removing it from the player's inventory. Should Talion successfully take revenge on the Olog, his broken sword is automatically repaired and even upgraded.

Wakfu:
Evangelyne gets it particularly hard in episode 19 when her bow (along with her forearm) is broken — not by an enemy but by her Love Interest Sadlygrove, possessed by the demon Rubilax. It is later described as the worst affront one could do to a Crâ... although ultimately Eva seems to be more worried about Sadlygrove's fate.
Speaking of Rubilax, the sword he usually resides in gets broken (despite having been previously stated to be indestructible) by Adamai in the third season.
Goultard's primary weapon is a broken divine sword gifted to him by his father the God Iop at his birth. Since it's a divine blade, it still serves Goultard well despite its damaged state.

When the Last Sword Is Drawn:
After beheading a man who was ordered to commit hara-kiri but tried to run, Yoshimura falsely claims to have incurred a chip in his katana's blade in the process in order to extract more money from the Shinsengumi officers (ostensibly to replace the sword).
When Yoshimura returns home to Nambu badly wounded after his battle with the Imperial Army, his sword is bent in a zigzag shape, such that his lord gives him his own blade to replace it when he orders him to kill himself (as punishment for defying his lord's order not to leave the clan to join the Shinsengumi earlier in the film).

Devil May Cry:
In Devil May Cry 5, Urizen shatters Dante's sword Rebellion with a punch. Dante keeps the hilt, and eventually is inspired to stab himself with the bit of blade left. This causes him to absorb the Sword of Sparda and the remains of Rebellion to form a new sword, the Devil Sword Dante - as well as unleash his Sin Devil Trigger.
The Visions of V prequel manga reveals that Yamato was shattered by none other than Mundus after defeating Vergil, who was trapped in the Demon World at the end of Devil May Cry 3. Agnus would eventually collect the fragments of Yamato and attempt to restore it over the years, to no avail. Yamato is ultimately restored in Devil May Cry 4 by Nero after it responds to his strong desire to protect Kyrie, granting him an incomplete Devil Trigger.

One Piece
Zoro has broken multiple swords on different occasions, three in the manga, at least four in the anime. In the manga, the two unnamed swords he had when he met Luffy are destroyed in his duel against Mihawk. Later Yubashiri, one of the swords that replaced those blades, would be destroyed in a big fight against the Marines at Enies Lobby.
The anime includes a filler flashback to when Zoro met Johnny and Yosaku. In it, Zoro returns to a swordsmith and says "Sorry, I've broken them again...". He gets into a fight, Johnny and Yosaku hand him their swords, he strikes down his opponent, and is astounded that the swords didn't break.
While training under a mentor during the timeskip, Zoro is taught that he should never allow a sword to be broken again, because he can use Haki to protect them. He's told that from then on any damage to his swords should be considered a mark of shame.

Happens a lot in Code Geass.
Kallen's Radiant Wave Surger on her Guren is broken three times over the 2 seasons, once at the middle of the first, once about a quarter into the second, and finally in the last episode. The first time, Suzaku is nearly beaten, but lucks out as the Guren falls off a cliff and breaks the RWS upon landing. The second time, the trope is played straight, showing off the power of Suzaku's new mech against Kallen. She got a replacement within 2 minutes, then gave back nearly as good as she got. Finally, the arm is lost in her final battle with Suzaku, but at that point it was meaningless.
Kallen then does it to Suzaku in R2 episode 18, breaking every single one of his mech's weapons, and cutting off the mech's leg when Suzaku tries a last-ditch Hurricane Kick.
Earlier that same episode she does it to the Blood Knight Luciano, breaking each of his weapons one by one before delivering the Facepalm Of Doom as part of her Look What I Can Do Now! with the final version of the Guren.
Bismarck has this happen to him during his mech rematch with Suzaku. He's the strongest Knight in the world wielding a BFS larger than the mech he's riding on. The BFS is even named Excalibur. Cue Suzaku delivering a very clean cut of the sword from the tip to the hilt with an equally clean Diagonal Cut of the mech.
Then said broken weapon is reforged into two new swords, and Suzaku broke those, too.

Avengers: Endgame:
Early in the final battle, Thanos takes several chunks out of Steve's shield, hacking away at it with his sword until there's basically half of it left. Steve gets it repaired or replaced later, before handing it over to Sam.
Midway through the battle, Wanda breaks Thanos' sword in half with her telekinesis, leaving him temporarily defenseless as she lifts him into the air and tries to rip him apart from the inside out as revenge for Vision's death. He gets it back later, though, and uses it to destroy the quantum tunnel in Luis's work van so that Captain Marvel can't fly the Infinity Gauntlet through it.

In Fire Emblem: Genealogy of the Holy War, all weapons break after fifty uses and then need to be repaired. In a case more relevant to the trope, the holy sword Tyrfing ends up broken (presumed to be due to Lord Byron having charged across a desert while being pursued by an army) and Sigurd's father has to crawl across the battlefield to give it to him. And Sigurd then gets it... and it costs 50000G (aka the maximum amount of gold you can carry) to repair it. But it's the Infinity +1 Sword, so it's worth it.

Shin Super Robot Wars: As the Voltes team sorties in Scenario 14 of Space Route, the aliens spring their trap: the Namazunga flies over to wreck their Ultramagnetic Generators. Voltes is in dire straights to say the very least, and the group loses touch with Voltes as they slow the transport down to try to allow an emergency landing. After a quick rescue by the others, Ken'ichi is the first to wake up, disoriented and in considerable pain from whatever the bad guys did. He frantically asks after his other pilots, who are still out cold, though Megumi wakes up in short order. The bad news is that the Ultramagnetic Generators of all the Volt machines are toast, and they can't even move, much less combine. Ken'ichi is heartbroken, seeing as how they just got good at combining and all. Nothing for it but returning to Japan!

Every class in Darkest Dungeon has Weapon-Based Characterization. For the Leper, it's a broken executioner's sword. No matter how much it's upgraded it never gets repaired. It's far from weak, however; even broken in half it's still the biggest weapon used by any of the heroes and it does obscene damage.

In Mobile Suit Gundam SEED Astray, the Red Frame Astray's Gerbera Straight katana is destroyed by the Gold Frame Amatsu chopping its blade. Lowe spends a sidestory getting it reforged.
In a later story, Princess of the Sky, the absolutely massive 150 Meter Gerbera Straight Vol. 2 has its blade shattered. Instead of reforging that one, Lowe converts it into the Gerbera Straight Vol. 2 [Power], which converts the remaining hilt into a positron cannon and special equipment for the Red Frame Powered Red form.

Near the end of "DIO vs. Alucard", DIO grabs Alucard's hands as the vampire is pressing and firing his two handguns, the Casull and the Jackal, repeatedly into DIO's mouth and neck and uses his flash-freeze, freezing and shattering both the guns and Alucard's arms into pieces. This being Alucard, the loss of weapons barely slows him down as he reforms his arms into shadowy weapons, though DIO still pulls through with the win.

Weapons get destroyed all the time in Gundam Build Fighters since the show is about model kits rather than actual Humongous Mecha. However, a character's Gunpla being wrecked usually serves the same purpose as this trope; for example, Fellini's Wing Gundam Fenice gets mauled by the Qubeley Papillon just before Sei and Reiji's match against Aila to demonstrate how fearsome the Embody System is, and in the next episode Maoh's Gundam X Maoh is irreparably destroyed in a free battle against Julian McKenzie's F91 Imagine to show that he's on the same level as the current Meijin, Tatsuya Yuuki.

Excalibur is broken in the film of the same title when Arthur uses it for an unjust purpose — namely, killing Lancelot to satisfy his ego. When he realises the depth of his error, the knight is revived and his sword returned to him in one piece by the Lady of the Lake. This sequence was added so that Arthur could receive Excalibur from the Lady of the Lake as well as pull it from the stone earlier in the film.

Game of Thrones:
The fourth season opens with Lord Tywin Lannister watching (with just a touch of villainous smugness) as Ice, the Ancestral Weapon of House Stark, is melted down into two smaller swords for the use of his own family. At this stage in the war, House Lannister has apparently triumphed over all their enemies. Just to emphasize this point, Tywin throws the wolfskin scabbard (the wolf being the sigil of House Stark) into the fire.
The White Walkers' bodies and ice weapons are so cold that they shatter ordinary weapons on contact. Only weapons made of the nigh-indestructible Valyrian Steel are immune.
Euron Greyjoy kills Obara Sand by breaking her spear on her own body then impaling her with the broken halves.

Forged in Fire: As it's a bladesmithing competition, the smiths are under crazy conditions like "forge a knife using these old ball bearings and cables for steel", and the blades are put through tests like being pounded through sheet metal, expect someone's blade to do this every other episode. This is called a "catastrophic failure" and almost inevitably means you've lost the round (though stranger things have happened).

A new enemy damaging Captain America's shield is generally a sign that this foe is to be taken very seriously indeed. For instance, Odin's brother the Serpent in Fear Itself breaks the shield into pieces as an indicator that he is ludicrously dangerous and powerful. Also, the pieces of the shield are seen lying around Cap during his Heroic BSoD in the Bad Future of Age of Ultron, which indicates that the world really has gone to hell in a handbasket.

This trope proved to be the great equalizer in the match between Ryu Hayabusa and Strider Hiryu. While the former is a Walking Armory, the latter has a weapon that could easily cut through almost everything, thus the former was quickly reduced to their main weapon.

Island of the Lizard King has an example that borders on Schmuck Bait. When you come across a gigantic chunk of enchanted crystal in the middle of a forest, which is stated to be glowing with energy, the book actually offers you the option to whack off a chunk of said crystal using your sword. Choosing to do so will snap your weapon and make you lose SKILL points permanently.

Super Sentai:
Hikari Sentai Maskman has the Shot Bomber, the team cannon BFG used for the small-size Finishing Move, trashed. This puts the team in dire straits indeed. It is eventually replaced with the Jet Cannon.
Since at least Chikyuu Sentai Fiveman, it's very common for the Combining Mecha's sword to be broken once a season. In those without organic creatures substituting for actual mecha, having a robot losing an arm might also qualify.
Seijuu Sentai Gingaman: In their final duel, the Red Ranger breaks Budoh's katana moments before finishing him off.
Mahou Sentai Magiranger: At the end of the first major arc, Kai breaks Wolzard's sword in a one-on-one fight before he and the rest of the team defeat Branken, the Disc-One Final Boss. Wolzard takes Branken's sword and spends a few episodes re-forging it into a replacement (which is perfectly identical to the first, so it's not for merchandising purposes).
Samurai Sentai Shinkenger: the sword that is actually made from the souls of his family gets damaged, so Juzo has to make do with one of the swords used by the Mooks for several episodes.
Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger: In the finale, Akudos Gill gets his sword broken about halfway through his Rasputinian Death.

Fate/stay night:
In the 2006 anime/Fate Route, Shirou tries to attack Gilgamesh with the sword Caliburn, but Gilgamesh easily shatters it with his superior sword Merodach.
In Saber and Assassin's final duel, Assassin's nodachi gets slightly bent when he blocks Excalibur. This leads to his defeat because the damage created a blind spot in his otherwise undodgeable Tsubame Gaeshi technique, allowing Saber to dodge it and strike him down.
Servants can use this as an ultra-powerful attack by overloading their Noble Phantasm with mana so that they shatter on impact (called a Broken Phantasm), doing devastating damage. Archer, the Servant who does this in-game uses it without any setback at all, since he is a 'Faker' who duplicates any Noble Phantasms rather than 'owning' one, meaning that he can endlessly re-make Phantasms and break them as long as he has the mana for it. In fact, it's necessary because his fakes are naturally weaker than the real ones, so turning them Broken brings their power back up to the originals.

When the Boss in Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater doesn't want to kill someone, she just beats the crap out of them. But first she simply takes away her opponent's gun and neatly breaks it up into its parts with her bare hands, and then hands back the pieces. If you try to shoot her in the final battle and she's close enough to you, she'll pull apart your gun and throw it aside, though you can pick up the individual pieces and get your gun back.
Also Senator Armstrong in Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance, who's so strong that he can shatter Raiden's HF Blade like it was nothing, after catching it in one hand.

In Warhammer 40,000, the World Eater Primarch Angron went through several weapons in his lifetime. However, he defies the emotional connotations of the trope by discarding them without a second thought and simply getting new weapons. This is because of the gladiator traditions of his homeworld that treated broken weapons as bad luck. One of the World Eaters, Kharn, defied Angron's principles by retrieving one of the Primarch's discarded and broken twin chain axes, Gorechild, and had it repaired for his own use. Gorechild's twin Gorefather was eventually recovered by the World Eaters and is maintained as a prized relic that each Warband covets for themselves.

In Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End, Davy Jones snaps Jack's sword a few inches from the hilt, and later bends Will's at right angles while it's sticking out of his chest. Doing so prevents Will from taking the sword back out of Jones' chest, leaving Will effectively weaponless. Jones is ultimately killed with the broken one.

Doctor Who: The Doctor has had his sonic screwdriver (not a weapon, but still an Iconic Item) trashed several times.
The Fifth Doctor's sonic screwdriver was destroyed by a Terileptil in "The Visitation", and the Doctor doesn't get another till his Seventh incarnation (and his doesn't show up till his final appearance, in the TV Movie).
The Tenth Doctor's sonic screwdriver is destroyed in "Smith and Jones" when he uses it on an X-Ray machine which fries it. The Doctor is distraught... for a few seconds, he then tosses it aside and by the end of the episode, he's built himself a new (identical, so not a merchandising move) one.
It gets fried for a third time in the Eleventh Doctor's first episode, when he tries to signal the Atraxi ship. He is not pleased. The TARDIS makes him a new (much bigger) one.
And then again in the subsequent Christmas Special, where it gets eaten by a flying shark.

Star Wars Rebels:
All but one of the Inquisitors to appear have had their lightsabers destroyed during their defeats: The Grand Inquisitor gets his cut in two by a Dual Wielding Kanan, leading directly to the destruction of the ISD Sovereign. The Fifth Brother's is destroyed by Ahsoka just before he's killed by Maul. The Eighth Brother, finding himself outnumbered, tries to escape by flying away on his, only to fall to his death because Kanan had slashed the ring mechanism just before. Only the Seventh Sister averts this.
In "Twilight of the Apprentice", besides the Fifth and Eighth Brothers above, Ezra ends up facing Darth Vader, who easily destroys his gunsaber when they briefly cross blades. Ezra builds a new lightsaber using the kyber crystal and some of the parts from his old lightsaber during the Time Skip before Season 3.
"Twin Suns": Obi-Wan cuts Maul's lightsaber clean in half, along with his chest, when defeating him.

Midway through Dinobot's final battle in Beast Wars, his sword and fan-bladed shield are shattered, the first hint that this won't end like any other battle so far. To add insult to injury, said weapons were formed out of his beast-mode's tail, which would make it impossible for him to transform.

Gerry Anderson's New Captain Scarlet: Spectrum writes off a lot of Rhinos and White Falcon interceptors, but on one occasion this trope kicks off the whole plot of an episode; Captain Blue accidentally trashed some guy's Harley while pursuing a Mysteron agent, and the guy retaliated by stealing the Spectrum Raid Bike that Captain Ochre had ridden to the scene. Colonel White was not pleased when he found out she'd forgotten to set the immobiliser.

The original Final Fantasy Tactics has a few classes whose abilities revolve around breaking your weapons or other equipment. This drastically decreases your stats, is expensive or even impossible to replace, and can be quite problematic if in a series of battles. Samurai accept the possibility that their katanas may break if they use their special skills.

The climax of the fight between Tanjiro Kamoda and Jonathan Joestar sees Tanjiro shattering Jonathan's sword Luck & Pluck with a well-aimed Sunbreathing-enhanced swing of his own blade. However, as Jonathan merely improvised with swordplay while his true talent lies in hand-to-hand combat, it's just a setback he recovers from. While Jonathan in turn fails to destroy Tanjiro's own sword in disarming him, Tanjiro has no such fallback and thus is left open to a fatal counterattack of fists.

In the GBA game Summon Night: Swordcraft Story and its sequel you can win boss battles either by reducing the boss' health to 0 or by destroying their weapon (this is done by blocking the boss' attacks, reducing both yours and his weapon durability). The cool thing is: when you destroy a boss weapon, you gain the ability to craft it. Those weapons are much stronger than any other weapon the hero has at that moment.
Also, all the boss fights in the first game (besides the final boss, since it does not have that secondary win condition), can be made much easier by equipping your forging hammer, which is unbreakable, and simply blocking through the whole fight.

Jaune Arc, Lord of Hunger: Ruby's Crescent Rose is destroyed by Darth Nihilus during their battle in Chapter 18. Nihilus uses his telekinesis to disarm Ruby of her scythe and then crushes it into a ball of scrap before her very eyes. He then uses the remains of Crescent Rose as an improvised cannonball to splatter Bolin's head. The sheer sadism of the act makes it obvious that Nihilus did this solely for the sake of traumatizing Ruby by destroying her most cherished possession and using the crushed remains to murder one of her fellow students.

The Chronicles of Narnia: A villainous version occurs in The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe, when Edmund uses his sword to break the White Witch's wand, thereby taking away her major advantage of being able to turn her opponents to stone (as well as earning some redemption for his own treachery earlier in the story). This levels the playing field somewhat, helping the heroes to hold off her forces until Aslan arrives to save the day.

Eisenhorn:
Subverted in Malleus, the second book of the trilogy. Hero Gregor Eisenhorn's sword Barbarister shatters during his duel with Big Bad Quixos. Rather than being played for emasculation imagery, this actually allows Eisenhorn to win, as the sword shatters while Quixos was blocking a thrust, allowing the half remaining in Eisenhorn's hand to impale Quixos through the heart — had the blade not shattered, the blow would have been deflected and the duel continued.
Played straight earlier in the novel, when Eisenhorn loses his two previous weapons of choice during an encounter with recurring nemesis Cherubael. His power-sword explodes when he attempts to impale the aforementioned daemon with it, and he loses his bolt-pistol during a fall from a hover-bike shortly afterwards.

Gundam Build Divers explores this trope as the old game Gunpla Duel used the old Build Fighters style of fighting while the new Gunpla Battle Nexus Online eschews this as it is all online. Big Bad Tsukasa Shiba hates GBN because it doesn't use the old style, considers all players there not real Gunpla Battlers and considers his Gunpla Duel-honed skills superior to theirs. When he challenges Riku to a round of Gunpla Duel, both players are broken by the experience - Tsukasa loses to Riku, but Riku's left a sobbing mess because his Gunpla is destroyed.

Star Wars Legends:
The vehicular variation comes up in the X-Wing Series book Starfighters of Adumar. Much is made in the initial portion of the book about how superior the X-wing is compared to their local counterparts, the Blade-class fighter. When the Big Bad convinces the perator to turn on Wedge's pilots and exile them, their X-wings are impounded, and they are forced to fight several pitched battles using borrowed Blades instead — including a four-on-four combat against Imperial TIE Interceptors, which are on par with the X-wing and therefore have a huge advantage over their Blades. Once they manage to seize the hanger where the X-wings are stored, though, they return and lay a Curb-Stomp Battle on the enemy forces.

Lone Wolf:
There are many ways to break ordinary weapons in the series. In general, it's a really bad idea to attack powerful supernatural entities, like the Darklords or Demonlord Tagazin, with a non-magical weapon.
A few special weapons can also be damaged or outright destroyed if they encounter even more powerful magic:
In The Legacy of Vashna, Helshezag and the Dagger of Vashna will not survive to the end of the book if you bring them with you.
In Vampirium, your Kai Weapon is damaged after a failed attempt to destroy the Claw of Naar. In gameplay this means that its Combat Skill bonus is permanently reduced by either one or two points. Conveniently, this means that there is actual incentive to use the unique weapons that can be found in the previous book.

Trunks' sword chipped on contact with Android 18's arm. After this, he decides not to use it in combat anymore because it clearly won't do the job, and he stops carrying it with him.
This also happened later on with the Z sword, but that turned out to be Sealed Good in a Can, as the Elder Kai was sealed in it by Beerus.

Sword Art Online has Kirito do this several times. The first time it happens, he intends to break a sword dropped by a rare monster with one he intends to purchase and instead breaks the one he intends to purchase on his monster drop. The second time, it's revealed that most players don't even know SAO's gameplay engine can do that.

Everything Turns to Gold: During their battle in Chapter 25, Xornoth shatters Scott's sword when the latter tries to block a strike with it. Scott, out of desperation, attacks Xornoth with his bare hands, resulting in him touching Xornoth's skin, triggering his Midas Touch and slowly transforming Xornoth into a golden statue.

Rurouni Kenshin:
Kenshin slices Sanosuke's Zanbato in half. Afterwards, Sanosuke puts it away and fights with his fists for the rest of the series. During the Jinchu Arc, Sanosuke wields the Zanbato, now held together with metal staples, again, but it shatters after he uses it to knock away a cannonball.
Sanosuke breaks Jin-e's sword mid-strike by intercepting it with a statue. Unfazed, Jin-e stabs him in the arm with the broken end, then retreats. He has replacements.
Saito notes that he only likes to use katanas because all other swords are too brittlenote Katanas are notoriously brittle and break absurdly easily. His Cane Sword breaks after one use. Kenshin ends up slicing his katana in half. As a government agent, Saito quickly gets another one.
Kenshin and Sojiro break each other's swords in a duel. However while Kenshin is effectively disabled while seeking a new and stronger sword, and dealing with the mental stress of fighting without killing; Sojiro merely has to ask Shishio for a new sword, in addition to the fact that Sojiro has no qualms about killing.

In Dead Rising, although all weapons eventually break with use, there are two weapons that are specifically designed to increase their "mileage" by falling apart and changing forms: The mailbox and the push broom. Once they have reached their "damage limit" they will be stripped to their handles and be usable as spears. They are otherwise unremarkable weapons. Along the same lines there is also the mannequin, which falls apart after one hit but its individual limbs especially the torso last longer than most other weapons and deal better damage than the broom and mailbox.

The titular hero from One-Armed Swordsman uses a broken half-sword belonging to his father, which snapped years ago when his father fought off multiple enemies to save his mentor before succumbing. It's his personal weapon that he continues wielding in the sequel, even when he's facing multiple enemies with better, complete weapons. The remake, The Blade (1995) have the hero using a similar, erm, snapped blade.

In Zack Snyder's Justice League, Ares broke Darkseid's halberd in two with a battleaxe during the battle against invading forces from Apokolips in ancient times. Unlike in the original film, Superman freezes Steppenwolf's axe and shatters it himself.

The Pieces Lie Where They Fell:
Once Wind Breaker gets the Manechurian Dragon — a gun — away from its owner, Rex breaks it in half. Later during the same fight, when facing Sharp Point, Night Blade's sword Determined Point breaks as well.
Both of Vix-Lei's hammers are destroyed in the battle with the Nightmare. Unlike the former examples, they're later restored by the Rainbow of Harmony.

The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom: Ganondorf immediately shows how powerful he is by almost killing Link with one blast of his dark magic and completely shattering the Master Sword's blade. Not only that, but he also breaks nearly every weapon across Hyrule, thereby giving an explanation why Link can't just reuse all the weapons from the last game, and making his Fuse ability vital for fighting enemies. While Zelda manages to repair the Master Sword, doing so required her to soak it in her holy power for tens of thousands of years as she takes The Slow Path back to the present by turning herself into an immortal dragon.

In Code Lyoko, this happens a few times to Ulrich's katana, but being a virtual weapon it is intact on his next virtualization. Most notable is in "The Pretender", where Frelions blast the sword with their lasers, higher and higher, until it disintegrates. Ulrich still manages to destroy them barehanded or with a shard of stone. This also happened once to Yumi's fans in "Lab Rats", when she threw them to XANA-William... Who catches them and destroys them with his Super Smoke. This leaves her defenseless against him, and by the time Jérémie manages to reprogram the fans, XANA-William devirtualizes Yumi.

In Conan Hyborian Age, the quest's goal is initially to explore a dungeon to find a sword crafted in a superior metal. Said sword being found broken in two (the part with the handle and the lower part of the blade is usable as a dagger), the last objective is to reforge it at Whiterun's Skyforge, either as a one-handed sword or a greatsword.

In one storyline in the City of Heroes comic, Statesman suspends Manticore from the Freedom Phalanx and then breaks his bow for no reason other than to be a dick. The subversion is that while Manticore looks crushed, he goes home and gets another bow from an entire wall of them.

Sailor Moon and the Guardians had a bad habit of wrecking their gear in the early days.
In the manga, Sailor Moon loses her first tiara when it was used to bind Jadeite, who is incinerated by Sailor Mars' Fire Soul. She doesn't realize that it didn't come back until she transformed again later on and a new one suddenly appeared.
In both the manga and Sailor Moon Crystal, Sailor Moon overloads her first brooch destroying Queen Metalla. Queen Serenity gives her a new one. In the original anime, it was one of Ali and An's monsters that causes it, with Queen Serenity using the Silver Crystal to create the new one.
Also in the manga and Crystal, the other Sailor Guardians overload their wands to help Sailor Moon against the Dark Kingdom. They get new ones when the next arc starts.
In the anime, Sailor Mercury smashes her pocket computer over the head of one of the monsters that captured her before her death. It was whole once everything was said and done.
In the Sailor Moon R movie, Fiore clamps down hard on Usagi's brooch, crushing it slightly and causing her to lose her uniform. Usagi later blows up the Silver Crystal in stopping a Colony Drop. Both are fixed up at the end.
For a hat trick with this sort of thing, the manga and Crystal has Sailor Moon overload her second brooch and the Cutie Moon Rod stopping the Death Phantom. Neo-Queen Serenity gives her a new brooch and weapon. The anime instead has a new monster bite down on her brooch, draining it of its power.

Fighting Fantasy: Happens plenty of times. If you broke your sword, you'll likely suffer a SKILL penalty. Sometimes this can happen in the middle of a battle against enemies (see Knights of Doom, Night Dragon, Caverns of the Snow Witch) whose powerful exterior armor / shielding spells prove too much for your weapon to handle, and that would be quite annoying.
Island of the Lizard King has an example that borders on Schmuck Bait. When you come across a gigantic chunk of enchanted crystal in the middle of a forest, which is stated to be glowing with energy, the book actually offers you the option to whack off a chunk of said crystal using your sword. Choosing to do so will snap your weapon and make you lose SKILL points permanently.

Saint Seiya
Happens dramatically to Andromeda Shun when Pisces Aphrodite destroys the Andromeda Cloth. Shun is left with no other choice than to unleash the Nebula Storm. This is a serious moment given its due gravitas, as the Cloth's Nebula Chain was Shun's iconic weapon and a companion at times.
The same thing happens with the Bronze Cloths, which are wrecked if not outright disintegrated at least once per arc, causing so much annoyance and/or despair for the protagonists. They get better. (And, unlike the broken Gold Cloths, the Bronzes get much, much better in the Grand Finale.)
