* In ''[[Ranma ½]]'', the [[Terrible Trio|Musk Dynasty warriors]], Herb, Lime and Mint, have slightly pointed ears, hinting of their partially animalistic descent. |

* In ''[[Slayers]]'', Elves, such as [[Genki Girl|Memphis]], have the classic small, pointed ears, although Mellyroon, an Elf from a [[Non-Serial Movie]], inexplicably has bigger ears. On the flip side, Brau Demons have large, grotesque pointed ears. Zelgadis, a chimera, has decent-sized elfish ears because a Brau Demon was implanted into his genetic makeup via magic. |

** Filia Ul Copt (a gold dragon who is usually in human form) is also revealed to have these in some [http://img87.imageshack.us/img87/9478/slayerstry.jpg official art], although most of the time you can't see them because of her [[Nice Hat|hood with large green orbs on the sides]]. Other members of her race, while in human form, also have them. However, Milgazia of the Golden Dragon clan that serves the Water Dragon King in Dragon Valley and keeper of the Claire Bible however, has rounded ears in human form. His draconic true form is hinted at instead in the shape of his eyes and pupils in anime, manga and novel art. |

* Rena, uniquely among the Expelians in ''[[Star Ocean the Second Story]]''. (and its [[Animated Adaptation|anime]], ''Star Ocean EX''), {{spoiler|because she's actually Nedian; the other Nedians have the same [[Unusual Ears]]}}. The Vanguardians who play a minor role in ''Star Ocean: Till the End of Time'' seem to have a similar appearance. |

** Members of the Fellpool and Highlander races in ''[[Star Ocean 1|First Departure]]'' have ears like this. Featherfolk, which are native to the same planet, do not (though they are [[Winged Humanoid|Winged Humanoids]]). |

* Everyone's favorite greedy [[Anti-Hero]]/[[Wario Ware|game designer]], [[Wario Land|Wario]], has pointy ears. He doesn't seem to be a supernatural being, though, at least not any more than Mario himself. His partner in the [[Super Mario Bros.|Mario]] spin-offs, Waluigi, also has this trait. |

* [[Eternal Sonata|March and Salsa's]] ''actual'' ears arch out to the side. (They also wear things in their hair that seem intended to evoke bunnies.) They're not explicitly called elves, but the idea is the same. Although you're also nice to March because, in addition to being able to mop up the floor with enemies like her sister Salsa, she's just so ''sweet'' that you'd come off as a jerk to treat her otherwise. |
