One Steve Limit/Anime and Manga: Difference between revisions

* ''[[Dennou Coil]]'' has two characters with same-sounding given names, Okonogi Yuko and Amasawa Yuko. They get different nicknames (Yasako and Isako) quickly.

* ''[[Gakuen Alice]]'' has two characters with the same name: Misaki, a teacher and Misaki Harada, a middle school student, both of which are major characters.

** And also Tomo, her half sister in the [[Gaiden Game|sort of]] sequel.

* ''[[Koi Koi 7]]'' has two characters named Yayoi Asuka. One is a pink-haired [[The Ditz|ditz]], the other is an [[Eyepatch of Power|eyepatch-wearing]] silver-haired ruthless type. Once the latter Yayoi is [[Fountain of Youth|rebooted]], she then goes by "Gantai-chan" (literally "Eyepatch-chan").

* Averted in ''[[Umineko no Naku Koro ni]]'', where the Ushiromiya family's (presumably) human butler Genji's family name ("Ronoue") is pronounced almost exactly the same as the name of Beatrice's demon butler ("Ronove"). [[Mind Screw|This may be significant.]]

* ''[[SHUFFLE!]]'' has two Rins: the male lead and [[Unwanted Harem|one of the love interests]] (in her case it's short for Nerine). Sometimes you can tell which character is being addressed by the [[Honorifics]] used. For instance, when Sia uses the affectionate term "Rin-chan", she means Nerine; she likes Rin but doesn't know him as well, so he's usually "Rin-kun" unless she's being very serious.

* ''[[One Piece]]'' has a couple people named John: Zoro's old friend and fellow [[Bounty Hunter]] Johnny, Marine John [[Our Giants Are Bigger|Giant]], one of the Zombie Generals of Thriller Bark was named Captain John, and the G8 [[Filler]] arc features a Marine Vice Admiral named Johnathan.

** Ace's cover story, where he's hunting down Blackbeard (real name Marshall D. Teach), once has him run into a similar looking but completely unrelated Dr. Blackbeard, who he mistook for Teach, kicked in the face, and was throw into a river by the townsfolk this angered.
