Line 254:
== Parodies and radically different versions ==
=== Anime and Manga ===
* It's becoming increasingly common in anime-derived art, including some video games, for female dwarves to be portrayed as cute young girls (often straying into [[Lolicon]] territory). Ymir from ''[[Queen's Blade]]'' is a prime example.
** ''[[Lineage II]]'' uses this
** The Japanese pen and paper RPG ''[[Sword World]]'' does this, with the female dwarves looking more like [[Our Gnomes Are Weirder|Gnomes]] than anything else.
* ''[[Slayers]]'': When Lina first meets Prince Philionel, she wonders whether this mountain of a man could be a dwarf - implying that dwarves in her world are not known for being short.
* ''[[Is It Wrong to Try to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon?]]'' plays with the trope. Gareth, one of the three leaders of the Loki Familia (the most powerful adventuring group in Orario), is about as stereotypical a Dwarf as one can find. Mia, the owner of an inn, is tall, beardless, and obviously female... but still wants her patrons to order a lot so that she gets plenty of money.
