{{examples}}
== [[Anime]] and [[Manga]] ==
 
* [[CLAMP]] is fond of using these, to the extent that it's not clear if they have a bondage fetish or simply enjoy teasing the [[Fan Girl|Fangirls]].
** Kamui and Fuuma of ''[[X 1999]]'' are shown several times in these, tying into the "destined" aspect to their relationship and rivalry.
Line 26:
* ''[[GetBackers]]'' [https://web.archive.org/web/20090818153923/http://www.animepaper.net/gallery/scans/Get-Backers/item62284 sure contains] [https://web.archive.org/web/20090123005132/http://www.animepaper.net/gallery/scans/Get-Backers/item78113/ a lot] [https://web.archive.org/web/20090224161256/http://www.animepaper.net/gallery/scans/Get-Backers/item10129 of this] for a [[Shounen]].
* Happens both literally and in the artwork of ''[[Loveless]]'', though in the literal case it's used as a spell to try and immobilize the protagonists.
* There is a Western example in the Hitchcock film ''The 39 Steps'' in which it is commented that after being handcuffed together for most of the film, it makes sense for the male and female protagonists to marry.
* Used in the second season's [[Ending Theme]] of ''[[The Familiar of Zero]]'', with Louise mentioning taking Saito for a walk with the "chains of love" (or "leash of love", same thing). Given how she treats him normally, this is entirely unsurprising.
* [https://web.archive.org/web/20090727055810/http://www.animepaper.net/gallery/scans/code-geass/item153096/ An image] from the ''[[Code Geass]]'' calendar delivers a double-whammy with [[Anti-Hero]] Lelouch in chains and [[White Prince]] Suzaku tied up in red cloth. Unsurprisingly, the characters were designed by [[CLAMP]].
** This gets taken [[Up to Eleven]] with the second season's first ending theme, which puts ''everyone'' in them (with the exception of Nunnally, who gets ribbons instead).
*** And the second one puts Lelouch and Suzaku in them again.
* ''[[Meine Liebe]] Weider'' puts Ludwig in chains in the OP.
* A lot of ''[[Okane ga Nai]]'' artwork includes Ayase in chains.
* ThisA ''[[Full Metal Panic!]]'' gag doujinshi (from in an episode of ''[[Lucky Star]])'' featuring... [[mediaMedia:OhLord.jpg|Gauron and Sousuke]]. [[Brain Bleach|Yeah]].
* The back cover of one volume of the manga and at least one or two other official illustrations for ''[[Yami no Matsuei]]'' show [[Depraved Bisexual|Muraki]] and [[The Woobie|Tsuzuki]] in this pose, featuring red or black ribbons or chains. Not surprising given Muraki's tastes...
* Miku becomes chained to the shinigami Sei after a near death experience in ''[[Shinigami Lovers]]''
* [[Shounen|For a little change]]: [[Yandere|Shouko]] [[Unlucky Childhood Friend|Kirishima]] of ''[[Baka to Test to Shoukanjuu]]'' will do whatever it takes to have [[Tsundere|Yuuji]] [[Iron Butt Monkey|Sakamoto]] with her to the theaters... even if it means binding him up and giving her reluctant boyfriend [[Electric Torture|a dose]] [[Shock and Awe|from her]] [[Static Stun Gun|Taser]].
* In ''[[Ah! My Goddess]]'' Keiichi and Belldandy are bound together due to a wish that Keiichi made. Belldandy doesn’t object to that, however. It’s her sister Skuld that does. But Urd doesn’t mind them being bound together at all.
 
== [[Film]] ==
* There is a Western example in the [[Alfred Hitchcock|Hitchcock]] film ''[[The 39 Steps]]'' in which it is commented that after being handcuffed together for most of the film, it makes sense for the male and female protagonists to marry.
 
== [[Video Games]] ==
* ''[[Meine Liebe]]|Meine Liebe Weider]]'' puts Ludwig in chains in the OP.
