[[Lampshade Hanging|Lampshades]]. Some writers just love them.
Line 14 ⟶ 15:
{{examples}}
== Anime and Manga ==
* [[Ken Akamatsu]] likes doing this.
*
** In one episode of ''[[Ground Defense Force! Mao-chan]]'', the lead characters are specifically told not to ask why team member Sylvia and inn owner [[Love Hina|Naru]] [[Talking to Himself|both sound like]] [[Yui Horie]].
* ''[[Ouran High School Host Club]]'' often hangs lampshades in both the anime and the manga, at least in the beginning of the series. Even the author herself hangs a lampshade now and then in her Author's Notes. Then again, Ouran is an [[Affectionate Parody]] of [[Shoujo]] series.
* In the anime version of ''[[Suzumiya Haruhi]]'', and in the novels, the SOS Brigade create a film for the Cultural Festival. Kyon becomes narrator, as usual, and proceeds to act as a [[Lemony Narrator]], threatening to beat up Koizumi should he kiss Mikuru, and pointing out that some scenes just don't make sense for instance.
* ''[[The World God Only Knows]]'' has its own [[Lampshade Hanging/Anime and Manga/The World God Only Knows|page]] dedicated to everything it lampshades.
==
* Here are a few characters who ''love'' to hang lampshades all over the place.
** [[She Hulk]]
Line 32 ⟶ 35:
** [[Grant Morrison]]: e.g. one scene in his ''Bulleteer'' miniseries shows a villainess trying to kill the title character [[Stuffed Into the Fridge|with a refrigerator]].
== Fan
* ''[[Kyon: Big Damn Hero]]''. Since it's a Haruhi fanfic written by a troper, this is only to be expected. The name is a big clue, as well.
* In ''[[Grave Academy]]'', Jack, Samantha and Luke usually have this job.
* ''[[Oh God, Not Again
* ''[[Calvin and Hobbes: The Series]]'' also does this.
Line 104 ⟶ 107:
== Web Original ==
* [[Zero Punctuation|Yahtzee]] has a habit of pointing out how cliche something he's about to do is, and in [https://web.archive.org/web/20140326122918/http://www.escapistmagazine.com/videos/view/zero-punctuation/1632-Just-Cause-2 one case], [[Department of Redundancy Department|lampshaded lampshading]].
* [[Chuggaaconroy]], in his [[Let's Play]] videos will lampshade anything and everything that happens. Usually done with regards to tropes within the game itself, either the story or gameplay, but often will point out how [[Catch Phrase|cliche something]] [[Verbal Tic|he says is]], or how badly he's playing due to the [[Performance Anxiety|Let's Play Curse]].
* The work of [[Its Just Some Random Guy]].
