* ''[[Fate/stay night]]'' [[Gender Inverted Trope|gender inverted]]. Tohsaka realizes that she ''never'' sees Shirou laugh and that he rarely smiles. It makes her mad because while he likes making others happy he never actually enjoys himself. Ayako also notes this early on. Tohsaka decides they'll take a day off to make him enjoy himself. {{spoiler|With good reason, because as a person who never lives for himself, after he turns into Archer he becomes bitterly resentful of his life. She likes Archer, but doesn't want Shirou to become like him.}}

* ''[[Kanon]]'' [[Deadpan Snarker|Yuichi]] often does this to [[Hot Chick with a Sword|Mai]], claiming that [[Emotionless Girl|getting any kind of reaction from her at all is like winning a medal]].

He eventually found out that all he needs to become more popular is to use his cooking talents. The family still [[The Unfavourite|sees him as a disgrace]] for [http://schoolbites.net/d/20140407.html not acting deadly serious], but this way he got an [[Genki Girl|equally hyperactive]] girlfriend and status above "pest" with other students.

* ''[[Teen Titans (animation)|Teen Titans]]'' does this with Beast Boy and Raven. It turns out in the [[Prequel]] episode "Go!" that he got her to laugh during their first meeting, and he's been trying to replicate that ever since. He's succeeded three times: said prequel episode, an encounter with her "happy side" during a [[Journey to the Center of the Mind]] episode, and when he had a cold and lost control of his powers every time he sneezed. Notably, her happy side told Beast Boy that she always finds his jokes funny; her mildly irritated, [[Deadpan Snarker]] reactions to his jokes may be more about maintaining her emotional reserve than being genuinely annoyed.

* In ''[[Kids Next Door]]'', it's all but stated that [[Pungeon Master|Hoagie/Numbuh 2]] does all his puns to make [[Only Sane Man|Abby/Numbuh 5]] laugh (or [[I Want My Beloved to Be Happy|just happy]], at least). Unfortunately, [[Lame Pun|he isn't very good at it]], making her annoyed instead. There are times he manages to make her laugh, though.
