** To be fair to the antagonist, von Fogler {{spoiler|the antagonist's dad}} ''really'' should've left a note or something for {{spoiler|his son}} to read instead of making a video message that plays ''only'' when [[MacGuffin|all three anti-shizuma drives]] are united. Said antagonist does call von Fogler out on this
*** Justified because Von Fogler loves his son. As his father, he always thought he would become [[The Hero]] capable of [[Forgiveness]] and not an [[Anti-Villain]] consumed by [[Revenge]].
**** They have a valid point in that ''warning the world of an upcoming apocalypse'' should always be done via the clearest, least ambiguous method of communication you could possibly find. This is not the kind of message you want to take any avoidable risk of being lost in transmission.
* In ''[[Junjou Romantica]]'', Nowaki disappears from Hiroki's life for a year without so much as leaving a note. Hiroki is understandably pissed off, and when Nowaki comes back they have a fight that lasts for weeks before finally being resolved. It's not until after they've made up and decided to move in together that Hiroki remembers that, um, actually Nowaki ''did'' tell him he was going to leave... and, in fact, Hiroki encouraged him to do so... it's just that Hiroki wasn't paying enough attention to the conversation to remember it afterwards. Ooops. Like Hiroki says, "Wow... that sure makes me look like the bad guy here."
* ''[[Letter Bee]]'': In the "Letter to Jiggy Pepper" arc, a girl named Nelly and her brother were once friends with Jiggy Pepper before he left town to become a Letter Bee. Nello, dying of a disease, wrote a letter to Jiggy and confessed to being "so angry," which Nelly believed meant that he was angry with Jiggy Pepper, and caused her to steal Lag's crossing pass in order to deliver Nello's letter herself. It turns out that Nello was angry with himself for not being able to get better so that he could protect his sister, he encouraged Jiggy to follow his dreams, and Jiggy left to finance building a church in the village.
