== Anime & Manga ==
* In the anime of ''[[Rurouni Kenshin (Manga)|Rurouni Kenshin]]'', the uniforms of the Oniwabanshuu/the Oniwaban Group have been colored purple. The original manga was bichromatic, and Watsuki's coloring has been...startlingly inconsistent. The fans who wonder will probably never know whether the Oniwaban uniforms actually ''were'' purple, or if that was just a choice made by the animators to avoid the pitfalls of animating black.
* Takasugi Shinsuke from [[Gintama (Manga)|Gintama]], who is a [[Space Pirates|Space Pirate]] and definitely not a [[Well -Intentioned Extremist]], has a purple Kimono.
* In ''[[Sailor Moon (Manga)|Sailor Moon]]'', Hino Rei is noticeably native Japanese (even though all but Aino Minako supposedly ''are''), with long black hair -- highlighted purple -- and a distinct epicanthic fold. On the other hand, Chiba Mamoru's hair is often straight black, but when highlighted, tends to be highlighted blue.
* The Moon Empress in ''[[Yaiba (Manga)|Yaiba]]'' has her hair and [[Playboy Bunny]] outfit shaded violet.
