Line 35:
** Also, [[Quirky Miniboss Squad|Ginyu Force]] member Recoom, who looks almost exactly like a human, unlike the rest of his team. A filler arc also had some that were fleeing from a world attacked by Frieza.
** Some of Freeza's [[mook]]s look human, as well.
* Similar to the Saiyans above, Lala's race from ''[[To
* The S and Stars seasons of ''[[Sailor Moon]]'' brought '''so''' many Human Aliens (or at least aliens that were ''originally'' human in appearance) from across the galaxy [[Tokyo Is the Center of the Universe|to Tokyo]] that one could wonder if non-humanoid intelligent lifeforms really existed at all! Even the [[Talking Animal|talking cats]] Luna and Artemis, who were aliens from the planet Mau in the manga, could assume human forms. (Rei's crows Phobos and Deimos were also revealed to be aliens who could take human form in the manga.) The filler arc villains Eiru and An from the start of the second season were also aliens who could assume human form, though the villains from the first season and the rest of the second season were originally from Earth.
** The Moon Kingdom inhabitants and the Senshi of the past could also count, since they're technically not from Earth. This also means {{spoiler|Queen Nehelenia/Zirconia}}, the [[Big Bad]] from SuperS, would count, even though the rest of her minions are either from Earth originally (animals given human form, some girls from the rainforest given powers) or are dream-monsters (the Lemures).
Line 267:
* Mostly averted in the [[Star Wars]] series. It does feature a few human-looking (possibly) aliens, although those may just be human colonies. It also features plenty of [[Rubber Forehead Aliens]]. But then there are also many species that are very non-human-looking. It's a richly diverse galaxy.
* Subverted in ''[[Galaxy Quest]],'' as the aliens initially appear human, but are using technology to change their appearance because their true form is . . . unsettling.
* Subverted in the remake of ''[[The Day the Earth Stood Still (1951 film)|The Day the Earth Stood Still]]''; Klaatu's human form is implied to have been grown inside his initial containment suit to allow him to be compatible with the Earth's environment.
Line 292:
* ''[[Star Trek: The Next Generation]]'' had a weird variation once: apparently, it's not just humans that have doubles. "Who Watches the Watchers?" features a alien species that are physically identical to ''Vulcans'' (or at least Romulans, who are basically Vulcans with a ridge to make them distinct from their Federation cousins) without being a descendant. Strangely enough, they were apparently also ''mentally'' similar to Vulcans (the whole logic thing).
* Subverted in an episode of ''[[The Twilight Zone]]'' in which astronauts are surprised to find Mars inhabited by human beings.
* Famously subverted in ''[[V (TV series)|V]]'' - the Visitors look human, but are really [[The Reptilians|Reptilian Aliens]] using [[Latex Perfection]] to disguise themselves.
Line 302:
== [[Tabletop Games]] ==
* Subverted in ''Cthulhu Tech''. The Nazzadi look like [[Rubber Forehead Aliens]], but that is because they are actually genetically engineered from humans by the very alien [[Starfish Aliens|Migou]].
* ''[[Traveller]]'' [[Role
