Line 263:
* ''[[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, and can break a wooden bar with her fist.
* In ''[[One Piece]]'', dwarves seem more like traditional pixies or fairies, being [[Lilliputians]] in size, but each [[Super Strength| as strong as a giant.]] (In one notorious scene involving them, [[Ms. Fanservice| Robin]] was a victim of a [[Gulliver Tie Down]].) Natives of Totto Land (in the Dressrosa Arc), their skills unfortunately make them valued by slavers, having been a [[Slave Race]] in Dressrosa until being liberated via [[Big Bad|Donquixote Doflamingo]] being overthrown.
