== Played Straight ==
=== [[Anime]] and [[Manga]] ===
* Pictured: Nodamiki and Kisaragi from ''[[GA Geijutsuka Art Design Class]]'' make them appear while sharing a rather intimate moment.
* Occurs in a [[Filler]] episode of ''[[Naruto]]'' when he dreams that he and Sakura are [[Almost Kiss|about to kiss]].
** Love bubbles accompany Karin's [[Immodest Orgasm|audible]] [[Does This Remind You of Anything?|reaction]] when Sasuke bites her arm.

* ''[[Ouran High School Host Club]]''
* ''[[Zone of the Enders]] Dolores i''
* ''[[Azumanga Daioh]]'', when Kaorin is daydreaming about Sakaki.
* In ''[[Peacemaker Kurogane]]'', Soji and Tetsu share a bubble moment during the Poetry fluff episode. This is never explained or referred to again.
Line 52 ⟶ 51:
* So overdone in ''[[ION (manga)|ION]]'' that the mangaka later said she was embarrassed of it and she'd get rid of them if she could.
* Appears frequently in ''[[Kimi ni Todoke]]'', so frequently in fact, that it would be rare to see a chapter (or an episode) that wouldn't have '''at least''' two scenes made of it.
* In the chapter 423 of ''[[Kenichi: The Mightiest Disciple]]'', in the scene where {{spoiler|Kenichi and Miu hold hands for ''one whole minute'', they stare wide-eyed at each other}} standing inside a ''whirlpool'' of
* ''[[Pokémon (anime)|Pokémon]]'': Any time [[Casanova Wannabe|Brock]] imagines himself wooing the local beauty.
* A variation happened, accompanied by a [[Luminescent Blush]], in ''[[Wandering Son]]'' when Nitori {{spoiler|asked Anna to go on a date with him}}.
* ''[[Kaichou wa Maid-sama|Kaichou wa Maid Sama]]'' uses a lot of both bubbles and flowers. Maid Latte's manager practically has it as a skill, which occasionally goes out of hand.
=== [[Video Games]] ===
* Kimmy Howell, [[Loony Fan]] of Travis Touchdown in ''[[No More Heroes 2: Desperate Struggle]]'', ''weaponizes'' these.
* They appear in ''[[Sengoku Basara]]'' whenever Tsuruhime tries to confess to Fuuma. Or just around Tsuruhime in general.
* Often happens to Fuuko in ''[[Clannad (visual novel)|Clannad]]'' whenever she gets overwhelmed by the cuteness of something (usually starfish). The scene often pulls back and shows everything looking as normal, but with (starfish-shaped) bubbles appearing only around Fuuko.
** The worst case Fuuko has though is when Nagisa hugs her, causing her to be out for ''several minutes''. Of course, Tomoya won't let that chance pass by...
=== [[Web Comics]] ===
* You can spot these every now and then on ''[[Misfile]]''.
* The floral variant is used in [http://www.egscomics.com/?date=2003-05-21 this] ''[[El Goonish Shive]]'' to drive home Tony's [[Stupid Sexy Flanders|attraction to Tedd.]]

* Used utterly satirically in one episode of ''[[Soul Eater]]'' after Soul and Black Star attempt to combine their power and fail.
* ''[[Saiunkoku Monogatari]]'' occasionally plays these for comedy, as when Shuurei suspects that Ryuuki and Shuuei, or Ryuuki and Seiran, are in love. Ryuuki himself has a ''fierce'' case of
* Parodied in an early episode of ''[[
* Played for laughs in ''[[Prétear]]''
* Used hilariously in the ''[[Maiden Rose]]'' OVA omake. Apparently the only reaction possible to neko-Taki surrounded by
* The title character of ''[[Hayate the Combat Butler]]'' can summon
* In ''[[The Legend of Koizumi]]'' Hitler of all people has this when he first appears and whenever he talks about the Pope.
* ''[[Bleach]]'': The [[Anime]] plays this for laughs at the end of Episode 142. [[Number Two|Renji]] gets more than he [[Ho Yay|bargained for]] when he asks if [[Blood Knight|Kenpachi]] and [[The Stoic|Byakuya]] were waiting long when timing their dramatic entrance - Kenpachi pulling a [[Bishie Sparkle]] while surrounded by [http://fc06.deviantart.net/fs50/f/2009/311/7/5/Kenpachi_Demotivates_You_by_mooniestar.jpg love bubbles] as Byakuya lays on the [[Subtext|innuendo]] is as [[Cheshire Cat Grin|terrifying]] as it's [[Gay Bravado|hilarious]].
