Line 11:
== Anime and Manga ==
* In the ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh!]]'' second series, it's revealed that Yugi's dark side is the reincarnation of a Pharaoh who's lost his memories. The Pharaoh then enters the Battle City Finals to gain the three Egyptian God cards he needs to enter the Millenium World where he can find his identity.
* In ''[[Noir (anime)|Noir]]'', the subplot of who the hell Yuumura Kirika ''is'' drives the action for the begining of the series. A subversion, since near the end Kirika doesn't really seem to want to find out about her past, and would rather just make tea for her [[Romantic Two-Girl Friendship|'partner'.]]
* ''[[Kaiba]]'': One day a young man wakes up in an empty room, with no idea of who or where he is. His only clues are a strange marking on his stomach, a hole in his chest and a locket containing a blurry picture of a girl. Kaiba travels from planet to planet, seeking for who he is and who the girl in the locket is.
* ''[[Durarara!!]]'': This is at least part of the plot, in the case of {{spoiler|Celty's}} motivations.
Line 85:
* ''[[The Neverhood]]''. The protagonist's back story is revealed through the [[Plot Coupons]] scattered throughout the game.
* ''[[Phoenix Wright]]'': Happens (temporarily) to Phoenix in the second game to justify a tutorial level.
* ''[[Sonic the Hedgehog|Shadow The Hedgehog]]'': has been doing this since ''[[Sonic Adventure Series|Sonic Adventure 2]]''. In his first appearance, he had part of his memory, but by ''Sonic Heroes'', he had lost all of his memory, taking him on a quest for his identity that would come to a head in this game.
* The Kid in ''[[Ever 17]]''.
* Many players on MU* s create characters of this sort, often because they save the player the trouble of having to do the real work of assembling a character, leading some MU* s forbid characters of this sort out right.
