'''[[Those Two Guys|Kitamoto and Yushimura]]''': ''Liar!''<br />

'''Natsume''': Eh? Are you serious? }}

* In ''[[Axis Powers Hetalia]]'', Vietnam considers herself to be plain and not photogenic. Taiwan tells her she's a cutie, though.

** Belgium also considers herself as such, but doesn't make a big fuss of it. In her own words:

* Sakurako Sanjou from ''[[Hana Yori Dango]]'' gets extensive plastic surgery just because other children, especial importance placed on Tsukasa, called her ugly as a kid. In the Japanese drama, the girl playing her is [[Hollywood Homely|not at all ugly.]]
