* In ''[[Fairy Tail]]'', Wendy is elated to be reunited with Jellal, who saved her as a child. Of course, since there's, like, ten Jellals running around, she's got the wrong one. It's actually a little sad, since the one she finds {{spoiler|has amnesia, and has only been told about all the things he's done wrong in the past, so he's relieved to hear that he's been able to do good for at least one person.}}
* A [[Running Gag]] in ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! ARC-V]]'' is for a member of the main cast to be mistaken for another due to them being dimensional counterparts of each other with similar faces and hairstyles. <ref>The rundown: A Running Gag in Yu-Gi-Oh! ARC-V is for a main character to be mistaken for another due to them being dimensional counterparts of each other with similar faces and hairstyles. note The rundown: Yuya had been mistaken for Yugo by Frank, Damon, Tanner, and the Security, and for Yuto by Kaito. Yuzu has been mistaken for Ruri by Yuto and Ruri's brother, Shun and for Rin by Yugo. Yuto was mistaken for Yuya by Yuzu, Sawatari, Ootomo, Yamabe, Kakimoto, and Nakajima and for Yuri by Yugo. Yugo was mistaken for Yuya by Umesugi and Takeda and for Yuri by Yuto. Yuri was mistaken for Yuya by Yuzu and Yusho and for Yugo by Yuzu. Ruri was mistaken for Yuzu by Yuya. And poor Serena has been mistaken for Yuzu by pretty much everyone except Yugo (who mistook her for Rin). [[Overly Long Gag| Got all that?]]</ref>

* Happens in ''[[Chrono Trigger]]'' near the start of the game when Marle goes to the past and is mistaken for her ancestor, Queen Leene.

* In the ''[[Garfield and Friends]]'' episode ''Mistakes Will Happen'', Garfield and Odie are watching the [[Stylistic Suck|intentionally]] [[Off-Model|mistake-filled]] episode of [[Recursive Canon|Garfield And Friends itself]], ''Mistake Will Happen''. At one point in it, Garfield and Odie overhear Jon planning to scare them using a ghost costume as punishment for walking in the woods alone. However, an escaped convict sees him afer he bumps into a tree, and is worried that there might be people, so he uses the costume to scare away any people. Garfield and Odie spot him thinking he's Jon, and [[Hilarity Ensues]].
* Played for Laughs in ''[[Histeria!]]'', where a [[Running Gag]] on the show would have [[The Ditz|Pepper Mills]] would repeatedly mistake every historic figure she came across as either a modern celebrity or fictional character, often one who was not even remotely similar. A complete list is [https://histeria.fandom.com/wiki/Pepper_Mills found here].
* In the ''[[Star Trek: Lower Decks]]'' episode "The Spy Humungous", the Pakleds all seem to think Freeman is [[Star Trek: Voyager|Janeway]]; to those who are not Trekkies, Freeman looks absolutely ''nothing'' like Janeway. But then, the Pakleds are all pretty dumb.
