Line 40:
* Nayuki's track team in ''[[Kanon]]''.
* Tamami's Occult Club in ''[[Mahoraba]]''.
* ''[[Hitohira]]'' focuses on two rival clubs, the Drama Club and the Drama Research Society. As in ''Genshiken'', it seems schools are uncomfortable with overlap, and the two must compete to stay official.
* The calligraphy club in ''[[Kamichu!]]''. The club holds its activities on the school roof, because it has only one member and thus doesn't rate a club room. Competition to get members (and thus stay viable) is a common theme of high-school-club-based anime.
** ''Zegapain'' also has an example of the one-member school club, in this case, the swimming club.
Line 71:
* The Digidestined of ''[[Digimon Adventure 02]]'' have referred to their group as the "Computer Club". It's basically a cover for their afterschool trips to the Digital World, using one of the school computers to get there. An early episode shows that there is a teacher who acts as the club's advisor - but he doesn't know the first thing about using computers and is a nonentity for the rest of the series. (His story purpose was to send Taichi to [[Not Important to This Episode Camp]] by forcing him to run interference.)
** Several Digidestined have their own club activities. Daisuke, Ken, Taichi and Sora are in their schools's soccer clubs, though Sora later switches to the tennis club.
* In [[Kimagure Orange Road]], Yusaku is a member of the school's karate club.
* In ''[[Vision of Escaflowne]]'', female lead Hitomi Kanzaki is a member of the track team and has a crush on the star of the club, Susumu Amano.
* In ''[[GA Geijutsuka Art Design Class]]'' the art club form an extra set of protagonists beside of the main five.
* In ''[[W Juliet]]'' the main characters Ito and Makoto meets when the later is joining the [[Drama Club]]. The club and it's members often play a role (no pun intended) in the serie afterwards.
Line 92:
** I.e.: [[Tokimeki Memorial]] 1 has: Saki Nijino (baseball or soccer club's [[Cute Sports Club Manager]]), Nozomi Kiyokawa (swimming team), Ayako Katagiri (art club), Mio Kisaragi (drama club), Shiori Fujisaki (school orchestra), Yumi Saotome (basketball club), Miharu Tatebayashi (reading club), Yuina Himoo (science club) and Yukari Koshiki (tennis club).
* In ''[[Persona 3]]'', SEES is technically a school club with Chairman Ikutsuki as its advisor, but the fact never proves to have any particular significance and several SEES members are members of official school clubs as well: Yukari is in the archery club, Akihiko is captain of the boxing team, and Mitsuru is Student Council President. The player character can join a number of official and unofficial clubs, including Student Council; these inevitably provide Social Links with the classmates involved.
* The same is true in ''[[Persona 4]]'', in which the Strength Social Link is held either by Kou (captain of the basketball club) or Daisuke (captain of the soccer club); meanwhile, [[Cute Sports Club Manager]] [[Lovable Alpha Bitch|Ai]] is the Moon Social Link, and the Sun social link can either be Yumi (drama club) or Ayane (Music club).
* [[Hourai Gakuen]] has ''plenty'' of these, ranging from normal sports clubs like tennis, baseball, karate, and the like, to weird ones like mad scientists' club and occult club. They function as the game's job system.
* Player characters in ''[[Disgaea 3: Absence of Justice]]'' can join after-school clubs for various benefits, including special abilities. Characters can only Magichange successfully with members of the same club. The President of each club gains stat bonuses based on the power of his subordinates and can use their spells when adjacent to them in battle. The only club initially available, the Going Homers, confers no special benefits but has the largest default size.
* ''[[Katawa Shoujo]]'':
** [[Absent-Minded Professor|Mutou]] and [[Player Character|Hisao]] try setting up a Science Club during [[Plucky Girl|Emi]]'s route.
** [[Cloudcuckoolander|Rin's]] a member of the Art Club.
** Under [[Spirited Competitor|Shizune]] and [[Large Ham|Misha]]'s [[Club President|control]], the [[Student Council]] suffers from [[Club Stub]].
** [[Yamato Nadeshiko|Lilly]] organises [[School Festival]] related activities in Act 1 for [[Class Representative|her class]]. [[Shrinking Violet|Hanako]] and [[Conspiracy Theorist|Kenji]] take part in them if Hanako's route is being aimed for.
