== Anime And Manga ==
* Subverted in ''[[Naruto]]'' with Suigetsu in the anime-only expansion of Chapter 347 called "Zebuza's Blade".
* Den, the leader of Barjack from ''[[Battle angelAngel Alita]]'', is... well, not a cyborg, but a separate personality of another character who operates a drone body via radio waves; he maintains two different lower bodies, a humanoid one and a horse-like one, which makes him resemble a centaur when he uses it. It's a bit of a mystery why, since he's about twelve stories tall and attaching the two halves of his body is a big operation.
