Line 31:
* Happens frequently in ''[[The Five Star Stories]]''. It's a favorite activity of Emperor Amaterasu, but then, disguising yourself is the easiest thing in the world to do when you're a literal [[Physical God|divine emperor]].
* Shi Ryuuki from ''[[Saiunkoku Monogatari]]'' does this a lot. Not that he always succeeds; Shuurei saw through his disguise immediately when they first met (he was using the name of someone she had met not ten minutes ago, among other things). He does manage to pull it off at other times, though - at least once so well that when he reveals his identity, his subjects don't initially ''believe'' him.
* Ling Yao and Mei Chan in ''[[Fullmetal Alchemist (manga)|Fullmetal Alchemist]]'', although in Mei's case, being the emperor's daughter doesn't really get her all that much. Ling on the other hand is such a dork that when the other characters find out who he is, they almost injure themselves laughing.
** Actually, they're picturing him in pantaloons with a white horse and a shiny crown. The Eastern concept 'son of the emperor' and the Western concept 'prince,' especially as perceived by Easterners, are not precisely analogous, so...
** Also, [[Obfuscating Stupidity]], even if the falling-over-and-demanding-food thing was later Ling's [[Something Only They Would Say]] in a plot-relevant way. {{spoiler|It helped that his teeth stopped being pointy when he was in control.}}
