{{quote|'''Rena:''' Someone is quietly spying on you from afar. Someone is constantly shadowing you. Someone is always right behind you, looking at you. Eventually the footsteps will be a little offbeat from yours, and you'll hear one extra.

* Pretty much the main plot point of ''[[Chaos;Head]]''. Almost every time something weird happens, someone or something will say or read "Sono me dare no me?", which roughly translates to "Whose eyes are those eyes?"

* ''[[The Idolmaster (anime)|THE iDOLM@STER]]'' - Takane feels the presence of the [[Paparazzi]] following her.
