* Also in ''[[Black Lagoon]]''. During a [[Chase Scene]], Revy and Shenhua play one round of RPS to decide who gets to destroy one of the Japanese Red Army vehicles that wants them dead. {{spoiler|Shenhua wins and destroys most of the convoy instead, pissing off Revy in the process.}} |

* Used in one episode of ''[[Haré+Guu|Haré+Guu]]'' to settle a dispute between Haré, Guu, and Wigur. Guu wins, though it's not clear how anyone can tell: like the [[Powerpuff Girls]], her hands are stylized into [[Invisible Anatomy|indistinct blobs]]. |

* In ''[[Nadia: The Secret of Blue Water]]'', there is a collective rock-paper-scissors game to determine who's doing chores... which Sanson always loses because he's predictable (he tends to regularly pick scissors). Later in the same episode, when confronted by an enemy mecha armed with a crab-like pincer, Sanson briefly mumbles to himself the rules of the game, concluding with "Rock beats scissors!"... and he picks a big boulder to throw at the mecha, hoping to block its claw. It doesn't work. |

* In one episode of ''[[Keroro Gunsou]]'', the main characters decide to have a snowball fight following the "official rules", which involves splitting into two teams. Tamama suggests that they add an element of Capture the Flag by having one teammate tied up and rescued by the others on their team, and that they pick who it is by using rock-paper-scissors. This is actually a ploy to get Natsumi out of the running, since she has the most physical prowess, but always loses at RPS. |
