Examples of [[Last-Name Basis]] in ... no, wait -- family names come ''before'' given names in Japanese usage. Examples of ''Family-Name Basis'' in [[anime]] and [[manga
* In ''[[Full Metal Panic!]]'', Sousuke calls everyone by their last names, mostly because of military discipline, and has actually had to be ordered to use first names.
* In ''[[Neon Genesis Evangelion]]'', Rei Ayanami and Shinji Ikari both do this with each other; he only says her first name [[Say My Name|in unusual situations]]. This is one of the things changed in the English dub.
Line 40 ⟶ 39:
** Kyon is confused as to which of Kuyo Suo's names is her given name and which is her surname when they are introduced, as she introduces herself in both orders; he calls her Kuyo-san most likely because that's what Sasaki calls her.
** Also worth noting is that he never uses honorifics when addressing or speaking about anyone other that Mikuru Asahina. He also continues to refer to her as "Asahina-san" even though she told him to feel free to use her given name early in the series.

Line 78 ⟶ 77:
* Despite being the [[Official Couple]] of the ''[[Bakemonogatari]]'' series, Hitagi refers to Koyomi as Araragi-kun, while he calls her Senjogahara-san
