* ''[[Thursday Next]]'' blatantly plays with the [[Fantasy Kitchen Sink]]. The first of its two main "gimmicks" is that genetic engineering has allowed humans to resurrect several extinct animals, and as a result, mammoths migrate through Swindon, dodo birds are the popular pet of choice, and Neanderthals [[Fantastic Racism|fight discrimination]] from humans and live in their own separate, politically anarchic (but peaceful) communities. The second gimmicks involves [[Literary Agent Hypothesis|living literary characters.]] It's complicated.
* In ''[[Who Censored Roger Rabbit? (Literature)]]?'' [[Roger Rabbit Effect|humans and toons coexist]].
* Fairy tale and nursery rhyme characters in ''[[Nursery Crime]]''.

** ''[[Power Rangers Ninja Storm]]'' had a [[Mirror Universe]] where monsters were good and Rangers were bad, and Tori had to get the civilian versions of the villainous generals to rise up against the evil Rangers. Was it the fault of the [[Monster of the Week]] back in the main universe, or did Tori just dream it when she was injured? [[Or Was It a Dream?|Yes, it's definitely one or the other]].
** ''[[Power Rangers Mystic Force]]'' ends with integration between humans and the magical creatures who'd previously kept to their side of the dimensional barrier in the forest, after humans and magical creatures come together to restore the Rangers' powers via [[Clap Your Hands If You Believe]].
