== Anime & Manga ==
* In ''[[Ouran High School Host Club]]'', Honey gets this reaction from pretty much every female (and some males) that see him, being a senior but having the rough size and appearance of an incredibly adorable blonde eight-year-old, particularly when he's got his stuffed bunny with him, as he usually does. He's even more [[Tastes Like Diabetes|sugary]] than the sweets he's almost always seen munching on-but [[Beware the Nice Ones|watch out]], he's not exactly a pushover when it comes to a fight!
* In ''[[Clannad (visual novel)|Clannad]]'', the adorably innocent [[Cloudcuckoolander|Ibuki Fuko]] says she wants to do this to little Ushio-chan, {{spoiler|Tomoya's daughter}}, and to be her older sister. Pictured above.
* In ''[[Mahoraba]]'', the eccentric president of the occult club takes an intense liking to Asami-chan, who is the first person to be so innocent that she finds her creepy jokes funny.
* ''[[Ranma ½]]'': [[Kawaiiko|Azusa Shiratori]] is very prone to this, grabbing new "cute" items and giving them a French name, and then claiming ownership of them. If it resists, she'll knock it out. If it's yours, and you resist, she'll knock ''you'' out. In the anime version, she tries to "adopt" a half-eaten rice cake soon afterward. When Genma manages to polish it off before she can steal it, she screams in horror and beats him senseless. Her collection, in the few glimpses we've seen of her mansion, has been shown to include an octopus balloon, a stop sign, and even weirder things. In an anime-exclusive episode, she adopts a [[Youkai|Tanuki]] statue—and when Kunô cuts his way out of it (it fell on him beforehand), she promptly adopts him as well, thinking he must be a ''real'' tanuki.
Line 64:
* A more serious example occurs in ''[[Bleach]]'' where {{spoiler|in Riruka's flashback, she had done this to the guy she had a crush on, imprisoning him inside her treasure box. She stopped when she realized how badly her powers were affecting the guy and let him go.}} More exactly: {{spoiler|Riruka actually ''weaponizes'' this trope. Anything and anyone she finds cute, she can snatch it with her powers and keep it for herself. She started with petty theft as a little girl (stealing the heart-shaped necklace of the neighbor that bullied her), then used it as described above.}}
* A creepy (though hilarious) version happens in chapter 210 of ''[[D.Gray-man|D Gray Man]]''. A random gangster who, according to his crony, "loves all beautiful things to a sick degree," decides that Kanda is the most beautiful person he has ever seen and declares, "I'm going to kidnap him and bring him back home!" Kanda promptly beats him to a pulp.
* Katanashi in ''[[Working!!]]'' is a minicon—someone who thinks anything tiny is inherently cute. Showing him anything small is guaranteed to get this reaction from him—which can be creepy when the object in question is a four year old girl who got separated from her mom.

Line 151:
* In ''[[Mass Effect 2]]'', Kasumi's reaction to [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ap0ej52lijg meeting Niftu Cal] ([[Crowning Moment of Funny|the]] '''''[[Memetic Mutation|BIOTIC]] [[Memetic Badass|GOD!]]''''') is "Aww. Can we keep him?"
* In ''[[Bayonetta]]'', a [[Mini Boss|Belo]][[Fluffy the Terrible|ved]] spots the adorable child Cereza. Hearts appear in its eyes, and it hooks her clothes onto its face (don't get the wrong idea, she's still in them), as it tries to "defend" her from Bayonetta. [[Disproportionate Retribution|So she summons a dragon made of hair to chomp it in half]]. Not that she wouldn't have done it if it hadn't taken Cereza.
* In the Ork campaign of ''[[Warhammer 4000040,000]]: [[Dawn of War]]: Retribution'', [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tvmgs6BPmZ4#t=3m58s Mistah Nailbrain decides to take "Daisy" home.]

* ''[[Cyanide and& Happiness]]'' has a disturbing take on this trope [http://www.explosm.net/comics/463/ in this strip] (albeit without bothering to declare the intention).
* In ''[[The Lounge]]'', for a while it was a running gag for people to see the very petite Jamie MacKenzie and equally short (but teenage) Max Espinoza and ask how much they cost. Usually when they were wearing a cute hat or costume.
* In ''[[Keychain of Creation]]'', Marena was inspired to bring [[Dark Action Girl|Secret]] along with the group after she attempted to say her full [[Names to Run Away From Really Fast|Abyssal title]]... and fainted after seventy words.
