* In ''[[Ah! My Goddess]]'':
** In the "Adeventures''[[Adventures of the Mini-GoddessesGoddess]]'' manga, one of the goddesses is able to make a duplicate of herself, which can make a duplicate of herself, etc, each of which is a bit shorter and squishier than its parent. In the main series, goddesses and demons can also divide themselves into avatars—smaller, less powerful versions of themselves. Before leaving, Hild splits off a 1/1000 avatar of herself in the form of a child to keep track of things on Earth. In chapter 248, her 1/1000 avatar then splits off a 1/1000 avatar which takes the form of a small crystal.
** The main manga and series feature a clone of Urd. The Urd clone can use all the same magic as Urd, but her inferior body can't handle the stress.
* Clones in ''[[Gundam Seed]]'' tend to have physical or mental problems. Case in Point: {{spoiler|Rau Le Cruset}}.
Line 32:
* The Sisters in [[To Aru Majutsu no Index]] have to go through body adjustments specifically to prevent this. [[Justified Trope|Justified]] because they were only made so that {{spoiler|Accelerator could kill them}}.
* In the [[Ghost in the Shell]] universe, it is possible for people to 'clone' their ghosts (what amounts to their souls) by copying the memory data of their cyberbrains, however this process leads to the eventual corruption of both the original and the copies created, and ultimately leads to the death of the original. As a result, the process, known as "ghost dubbing," is highly illegal, punishable by life in prison or brain-wipe.
* In the fifth ''[[Kara no Kyoukai:|Kara no Kyoukai]]'' movie, {{spoiler|<s>[[Fate/stay night|Shirou]]</s> Enjoe learns of his clone status the hard way. And then his arm falls off}}.
* [[Mahou Sensei Negima|Negi]] employs several paper doll clones of himself in chapter 36, without knowing exactly how it works. This trope ensues...
** This trope may be the reason of [[We Hardly Knew Ye|Quartum's and Quintum's]] [[Curb Stomp Battle|Curb Stomping]].
