** Ukitake and Kyoraku are baffled by Lilynette transforming into a gun and, specifically, arguing with Starrk. Both have their own Empathic Weapons, albeit ones which (filler excluded) don't talk so openly. |

* In ''[[Dragon Ball]]'', Karin gives Goku a bell around his neck so that that he can ring it when he reaches the abode of God. Yajirobe scoffs at this, saying God isn't real, despite having fought along with Goku several demons and cowering at the prospect of challenging Demon King Piccolo. Ironically, God and Piccolo turn out to be [[Starfish Character|two halves of the same coin]]. |

* ''[[A Certain Magical Index]]'': Touma sees esper powers on a regular basis (including being blasted by lightning frequently) but initially dismisses the idea of magic as nonsense. To him, esper powers at least have a scientific basis. This changes when he sees magic in person. Other science-side characters have varying reactions to magic: some (e.g. Accelerator) realize that it's different from esper powers; others (e.g. Mikoto) remain convinced that it's the result of esper powers and/or technology. |

* In the two-part ''[[Kino no Tabi]]'' episode "Coliseum", Hermes tries to tell Kino that a one-off character's dog can talk. Kino's response is "Stop being such a liar." Kino's a traveler. Just on screen, she's seen practically every crazy thing under the sun. Ignoring all that, she's talking to a ''talking motorcycle''. To make this a little bit weirder, everyone in Kino's world seems to think like this. No one is ever surprised when Hermes talks, but a talking dog? No way. And in an odd example of [[Schizo-Tech]], there are plenty of countries with highly advanced technology, including hovercrafts, but apparently no body's ever built a working airplane. |

* ''[[JoJo's Bizarre Adventure]]'': When Jotaro is told about Dio being a vampire, he thinks he's being BS'd, until Avdol helpfully points out to him that he just got [[Psychic Powers]] a few hours ago. |
