*** {{spoiler|In the end, getting the test answers right really didn't matter. The test proctor was a torture expert, and each new rule was designed to mindscrew with the genin kids. Naruto passed despite leaving his entire paper blank, also passing a second [[Secret Test of Character]] which said that if they got the not yet handed out last question wrong (even though he had gotten none of the other questions right) they could never be anything but a genin, basically ending their career as a ninja. Ironically, because of the way the test was intended to be, Naruto actually cheated by being honest - you weren't supposed to leave the test blank. The instructor was impressed by his guts, though.}}

* D'arby the Gambler, user of the Osiris Stand in ''[[Jo JoJoJo's Bizarre Adventure|Jo Jos Bizarre Adventure]]'', has this as his motto. For example, it's not ''his'' fault that Polnareff didn't know that, when they were betting on what meat a cat would eat first, the cat belonged to D'arby (and thus D'arby could choose which piece would be eaten).

* ''[[The Legend of Koizumi]]''. It's practically understood that cheating is part of the game as long as you don't get caught. And sometimes, it's still not considered cheating even if you ''do'' get caught if you do it in an audacious enough manner, like when [[The Hero|Koizumi's]] effort in cheating {{spoiler|[[Incendiary Exponent|caused his entire body to be set ablaze]]}}.
