== Anime and Manga ==
* [[Suzumiya Haruhi]]. [[The End of the World as We Know It|If]] [[Wrong Genre Savvy|she only]] [[Locked Out of the Loop|knew...]] [[A God Am I|On the other hand, it's better for us that she doesn't]]{{verify|reason='Haruhi is God' is a fan theory, based on a comment Koizumi made and immediately rejected. Is there any other canon source for this theory?}}
* In ''[[Narutaru]]'', Akira Sakura just wants to be normal, because of the horrifying realities of being bonded with her "shadow dragon". Shiina, on the other hand, can't imagine getting on without Hoshimaru, and has a [[Heroic BSOD]] when she finds out {{spoiler|he was never hers at all}}. Shiina also wanted to become closer to Hoshimaru, and be able to control him as if he were a part of her body, like others who have "dragons"; She never was able to.
* Nami Hito, the incredibly normal girl in ''[[Sayonara, Zetsubou-sensei]]''. At first she tried being the truant, but as Chiri [[Lampshade Hanging|pointed out]], [[Informed Ability|she kept showing up]].

* ''[[xkcd]]'' [//xkcd.com/308/ wants to] live in interesting times.
** Or at least he wants an [[Magical Girlfriend|interesting]] [[Manic Pixie Dream Girl|girlfriend]].
Line 224:
* ''[[Girl Genius]]'': everyone who lived through the transformation into Jägermonsters are immune to age and got generic [[Super Soldier]] augmentations. All but ''one'' Jäger also have various visible changes like claws, [[More Teeth Than the Osmond Family|sharp teeth]], pointy ears, [[Amazing Technicolor Population|strange skin pigmentation]] (sometimes [[Chameleon Camouflage|changing at will]]), and occasionally extras like horns or tail. Neither their creator (the guy was from one of the very first batches), nor all his descendants who made more Jägermonsters could figure what's up with this guy. He's still loyal to his master's clan, other Jägers still count him a brother in arms, being the only one who can really pass for a completely normal human (if with above-average amount of scars) after more than cursory examination got him an important job… but he still considers this bad luck.
{{quote|'''{{spoiler|"Axel Higgs"}}''': Out of all the thousands who taken [[Super Serum|the draught]] — and the hundreds who've ''survived'' — I'm the ''only one'' who ''never changed''. Never.}}
* ''[[bird and moon]]'': "[https://www.birdandmoon.com/comic/wayward-birds-explained/ Wayward Birds Explained]"
