* In ''[[Kodomo
* In ''[[Mahou Sensei Negima]]'', [[Adorably Precocious Child|Negi]] does this a lot, falling asleep on his students' laps on numerous occasions. The romantic overtones are usually subverted. Such as when he falls asleep on Konoka's lap (pictured above), leading the cheerleaders (and [[Shotacon|Ayaka]], who promptly freaks out) to believe that they're secretly dating, when in fact he's just exhausted. Naturally, Ayaka is overjoyed when Negi conks out on her lap later on, again due to fatigue.

** Specifically, Ren was overcome by his feelings and nearly either confessed or propositioned her, but realizing halfway through that this was already freaking her out and if he finished she'd probably be scared out of his life for good, he managed to turn it into the claim that he thought he might feel better if he napped and he couldn't sleep without a pillow. Both of them feel very awkward, until Kyoko (thinking Ren is asleep) starts petting his hair.
** It is very cute, but like most of ''[[
* In ''[[Great Teacher Onizuka]]'', when [[Tsundere|Anko]] and [[Butt Monkey|Noboru]], Anko accidentally smacks Noboru in the face with her purse thinking he's a perv, so she lets him rest his head in her lap until his nose stops bleeding.
* The implied intimacy of the situation is the reason why Dolores and Mr. Raptor (Both [[Humongous Mecha]], mind you) end up going straight to [[Instant Seiza]] when a bump during transportation puts them in this position in ''[[Zone of the Enders]]: Dolores, i''. That, and the cockpit sticking out from between Dolores' legs...

** Which had just been reversed earlier, with a freaked-out Tetsuo laying and resting his head in her lap with her stroking his hair and comforting him.
* Done by Minami for Yutaka in one episode of ''[[Lucky Star]]''. Yutaka seems oblivious to the [[Girls Love|romantic implications]] but [[Otaku Surrogate|Konata]] and [[Yuri Fangirl|Hiyori]] are not.
* Happened in ''[[
* This happens betweens between Momoko and Yousuke in ''[[
* ''[[Mayoi Neko Overrun]]'' has it between Kaho and Takumi in episode four. Both of them are naked, after a series of circumstances involving hot springs, a forest trek and Kaho not having any shame.
* Happens twice in ''[[
** The second instance occurs in the Soul Society arc, during a flashback, between [[Les Yay|Yoruichi and Soifon]].
* One of [[Naoko Takeuchi]]'s art books has [http://mangastyle.net/book1/1-44.jpg this cute drawing of Usagi and Mamoru.] "I love sleeping with my head on someone's lap. I also love having someone's head on my lap. Since both really put me at ease, I can be happy." she says of it.

* In the manga Seven Days, Yuzuru attempts to lie down on Seryou's lap to take a nap. He promptly complains that it's not as soft as a girl's would be.
