== [[Anime]] and [[Manga]] ==
* ''[[Mai-Otome]]'': An odd example since the sequel exists in another universe, but regardless Mai from [[MaiMy-HiME]] is a legendary Otome in the sequel
* ''[[Diebuster|Die Buster]]'': {{spoiler|1=The mystery behind the term "Nonoriri" is that it is an homage to Noriko from Film/[[Gunbuster]].}}
* ''[[Lyrical Nanoha]]'':
Line 32:
* Louis Wu in David Niven's ''[[Known Space]]'' books.
* Already rather famous among the Alliance by ''[[The Empire Strikes Back]]'', in the post-''[[Return of the Jedi]]'' ''[[Star Wars]]'' [[Star Wars Expanded Universe|Expanded Universe]], Luke Skywalker is a legend. The first new Jedi in a generation, a general at 24, the man who destroyed the first Death Star and defeated Darth Vader in single combat—and he only gets bigger.
* While his reputation as ''[[Warhammer 4000040,000]]''s '''HERO OF THE IMPERIUM!''' is part of the series, the first ''[[Ciaphas Cain]]'' short stories and novels are set in in his early days where he's a wet-behind-the-ears commissar who's just began gaining a false reputation for heroism. Plus the novels are in [[Anachronic Order]], so he has varying levels of fame (depending when in his life it's set) in each.
* In Isaac Asimov's ''[[Foundation]]'' series, we see Hari Seldon transform from an [[Ignored Expert]] to a legendary figure.
* More Asimov examples from ''Robot Trilogy''
