Line 90:
* Aversion: In ''[[Azumanga Daioh (Manga)|Azumanga Daioh]]'', when Chiyo-chan goes out shopping and reveals that not only does she cook for her family, but she cooks [[Supreme Chef|very well]], it's to reinforce the fact that she's pretty much perfect instead of her femininity (even if Nyamo asks her to marry her just for this.)
** You can't really say anything about Chiyo's femininity since she's only like 10 and even then she is still more feminine than the entire cast. She just happens to be [[The Ace|good at everything]] except physical activities due to her age and size.
* In ''[[Chrono Crusade]]'', the [[Hot -Blooded]] Rosette can't cook. In a flashback, Chrono is shown ''foaming at the mouth'' when he first tries one of Rosette's cookies. Later, she's shown to have improved enough that her food is edible, but it still ''looks'' disgusting. In comparison, [[Meido|Fiore]]'s cooking is to die for, and in the anime Azmaria and Chrono (of all people!) are both shown to be good cooks, as well.
* ''[[The Wallflower]]'': Sunako is an excellent cook, at least with Japanese food, and it's one of the big signs that she really is [[Beautiful All Along]] and Feminine All Along.
* Shimura Tae from ''[[Gintama (Manga)|Gintama]]'' can be considered a subversion of the Type 3 variant of this trope; she definitely fits the bill chararacter-wise, although she capriciously vaults back and forth in between feminine innocense and tomboyish wrath whenever somebody offends her or [[Stalker With a Crush|impinges upon her privacy]]. She has repeatedly stated to only know how to boil eggs, and even then the resulting product is always a blackened and inedible pulp much to the chagrin of the people she was cooking for. As a result of this [[Running Gag]], her younger and quite a bit more [[Yamato Nadeshiko]]-like brother Shinpachi usually does the cooking in her household.
Line 104:
* ''[[Wandering Son]]'''s protagonist is quite good at baking, though he's not shown to do any other sort of cooking besides that; he's also very feminine and [[Transsexual|identifies as a girl]]. His female peers aren't nearly as good at baking.
* [[Bakuretsu Hunters]] has a fun example that fits with Tira's being somewhat offbeat: she's clumsy when she has to cook by conventional means, cutting her fingers and turning vegetables into rubble. But when she's allowed to "transform" and do it her own way, her prep is flawless.
* A [[Rare Male Example]] occurs in ''[[Saint Beast]]'' where an already [[Long -Haired Pretty Boy|very]] [[Viewer Gender Confusion|effeminate]] character has his effeminacy further established by being the natural cook in his circle of friends.
* ''[[Real Bout High School]]'' (the anime version) has an episode where Ryoko and another girl compete to make lunch for the boy they have a crush on.
* Toyed with in [[Oniisama E]]. On one hand, the [[Yamato Nadeshiko]] Nanako is a [[Supreme Chef]] and [[The Ladette]] Kaoru is a [[Lethal Chef]]. On the other, the [[Tomboy]] Tomoko is just as good of a cook as Nanako is.
