{{examples}}
== Anime
* ''[[Mythical Detective Loki Ragnarok]]'' had Yamino and Loki being chased by a [[Brainwashed and Crazy]] Thor, and then successively by Heimdal, Frey, and Freya.
* This happened a lot at the end of the first series of ''[[Pokémon (anime)|Pokémon]]''.
* Happens in ''[[Mahou Sensei Negima]]'' on occasion. One notable example occurs during Ako's [[Day in The Limelight]] micro-arc: Negi, thanks to the use of a time machine, ends up being chased by Madoka, ''two'' versions of Kotaro, Chachamaru and Chisame, and ''himself''.
** Recent events have taken this to the next (il)logical step, with the entire ''school'' after him.
* It's happened to Sosuske in ''[[Full Metal Panic!]] Fumoffu''.
* The opening scene of the first [[Ranma
* Happens in ''[[Ladies versus Butlers!]]'' when Akiharu is accidentally branded as both a pervert and a delinquent.
* One end of an episode in ''[[Mega Man NT Warrior]]'' had this.
==
* A frequent ending in ''[[Groo the Wanderer]]'', even after he'd spent the entire comic effortlessly slaying equal to larger numbers of better armed people.
* A lot of ''[[Leonard Le Genie]]'' stories end like this, usually because half the town is destroyed thanks to his inventions.
== [[Film]] ==
* Happens twice to pre-frosh character Tom in ''[[PCU]]'', the first time even [[Exploited Trope]]. Then later, it happens to one of the antagonists.
* [[Austin Powers]] starts with a sequence of people chasing him through town. Set to the [[Theme Tune]].
Line 32 ⟶ 33:
* A classic example would be [[Frankenstein (film)|Frankenstein's]] monster.
* In the [[Buster Keaton]] short film ''Cops'' he ends up getting chased by what looks like hundreds of cops.
* In ''Love Potion No. 9'', the female antagonist, figuring more is better, overdoses on the titular love-potion, which causes every man to hear her voice to fall in love with her, and every woman to hear her voice to hate her. And then she goes out in public
* [[Coming Attractions|Promo posters]] for ''[[The Marrying Man]]''.▼
== [[Literature]] ==
* At the end of ''[[
== Live
* [[Benny Hill]] would most likely be the [[Trope Codifier]], as many, many of his skits ended up with someone being chased by an ever growing line of irate bystanders.
* The Australian TV show ''The Farmer Wants a Wife''.
Line 43 ⟶ 45:
== Video Games ==
* This happens in [[Left 4 Dead]] if a Boomer vomits on you. Assuming, of course, you've got enough room to run and don't get immediately surrounded by the horde.
* Sadly [[Electronic Arts|EA]]'s games ''Rugby 06'' and ''Rugby 08'' often deteriorate into examples of this.
==
* In ''[[Greg (webcomic)|Greg]]'', Ted streaks across a college campus naked, as everyone chases him for disguising himself as a phony professor [http://gregcomic.com/2011/09/14/storyline-back-to-campus-part-3/ here].
== Western Animation ==
Line 52 ⟶ 54:
* After his brain was warped by feminism, [[Family Guy|Peter's]] friend Cleveland took him to a Million Man March to snap him out of it. Peter defiantly approached a microphone and spoke a few "truths" to the men, about how the ills of the country were their fault because they were '''men''', not because they were all '''black''' men. Cue bird's-eye-view of tiny white dot chased by a whole lot of black dots.
* Happens to the titular heroes in ''[[Teen Titans: Trouble in Tokyo]]'', from three sources. Crazed Japanese schoolgirls were pursuing Beast Boy, Cyborg was hounded by sushi chefs, and Robin was chased by...[[It Makes Sense in Context|the local authorities]]. Eventually, there was a mass convergence.
* Happens in the ''[[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic|My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic]]'' episode "[[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic/Recap/S1
▲* [[Coming Attractions|Promo posters]] for ''The Marrying Man''.
