Line 64:
* In ''[[Maburaho]]'' Yuna constantly cooks for Kazuki and brings him obento, because "that's whata wife is supposed to do". This is also played with in two episodes, one being where Rin wants to try to cook an obento for a teacher she had a crush on, however as she isn't as feminine as the rest of the female cast, her cooking tastes horrible. {{spoiler|In the end, she doesn't give the obento to the teacher, but instead gives it to Kazuki who eats it all, despite its horrible taste.}} In another episode, when Kazuki's parents are supposed to come over to visit, upon learning eel is their favourite meal, all three girls attempt to prepare eel to impress his parents.
* In ''[[Sailor Moon]]'', this is how Makoto tries to impress Motoki. Unfortunately, her meal preparations are interrupted when Zoisite attacks ''his fiancée''.
* Early in the manga [[Tasogare Otome X Amnesia]] , Yuuko is shown feeding Teiichi from a bento. On the next page, she pulls him down onto her [[Lap Pillow]]. He's a bit weirded out by this, because Yuuko, although very good-looking and ''[[Buxom Is Better|built]]'', has been dead for something like fifty years. (She doesn't ''quite'' fit the [[Cute Ghost Girl]] terms, though, as everyone else in the school either can't see her at all or sees her as a [[Stringy
* Hikari offers to make Touji a bento in ''[[Neon Genesis Evangelion]]''. She says it's because she "makes food for her sisters so she always has leftovers" but it guaranteed that the fandom thought them an item from that point on.
** [[Rebuild of Evangelion]] 2.0 has a surprisingly detailed and extended focus on cooking. Shinji is a good cook, and proves it during a field trip. Rei, hoping to reunite Shinji and Gendo, invites both of them to a dinner party where she will cook. Seeing Rei practice cooking makes Asuka jealous, and she, too, takes up the ladle and attempts to learn (though she is [[Tsundere|incredibly embarrassed when this is found out]]). A later scene proves that Rei is a far more dedicated learner than Asuka, as proven by the bandage count on their fingers.

* Jam cooks for Ky Kiske in one of her endings in ''[[Guilty Gear|Guilty Gear XX]]''. Granted, she is a professional cook and [[The Cape (trope)|he]] helped her out, but her [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WroZYR25hCU#t=8m10s facial expression and body language leave no doubt about her intentions]. {{spoiler|Though this ends up subverted in that Ky ultimately gets ''someone else''}}
* In ''[[Persona 4]]'', the main character can occasionally cook for his friends. If the food is good, this will cause a increased [[Relationship Values]].
* Parodied in one of the female troll joke emotes in ''[[World of Warcraft]]'': "Da way to a man's heart is through his stomach, but I go through da ribcage."
Line 182:
* Kotonoha in ''[[School Days]]'' tries this. She's a [[Lethal Chef]], but unusually enough actually seems to get better at it as the show progresses.
** Just about the ''only'' thing that gets better as the show progresses. Everything else...[[It Got Worse|not so much]].
* A recurring theme throughout ''[[Shuffle]]'' is that all of Rin's potential girlfriends try to win him over by cooking. Despite this, it is a coincidence that the best cook ends up winning him over. When he stops eating Kaede's food, it is a sign that he is neglecting her. [[Yandere (disambiguation)|And we know where that brings us.]]
* An inordinate amount of time in ''[[Fate/stay night|Fate Stay Night]]'' seems to be spent on cooking. Shirou, Rin and Sakura can cook (different styles, but they can all cook) Taiga can't. Saber mainly just [[Big Eater|eats]]
** Sakura is the one actually trying for this trope with Shirou. It's somewhat ironic, considering that ''[[Real Men Wear Pink|he's]]'' the one who taught ''[[Parental Abandonment|her]]'' how to cook. Still, she eagerly learns as much as she can, from him and on her own, and he proudly acknowledges that she's managed to surpass him.
