** In the manga, by all appearances, {{spoiler|Arashi ends up [[Brainwashed and Crazy]] at the hands of Hinoto. With the same result, fighting for the Dragons of Earth. }}
** If there's going to be an X1999 example, it ought to be {{spoiler|Kamui and Fuma. They were best friends as children, and destined to be on opposite sides of the battle for the future of mankind. Whichever side Kamui chose, Fuma would automatically take the empty seat on the opposite side as a substitute "Kamui".}}

* In ''[[Fire Over England]]'', Sir Richard Ingolby, the English <s>[[Pirate]]</s> [[Privateer]], unknowingly attacks the galleon of his former friend, Don Miguel de Casanz -- when they encounter each other in battle, Ingloby tells his son, Michael, "We were friends once."

When he returns eventually, he decides to betray his friends and lure them into a trap to retrieve Walt.
* General Hague in ''[[Babylon 5]]'' is killed in battle after organizing a mutiny against [[President Evil|President Clark]]'s authoritarian regime. It's mentioned that his final engagement was against a fellow Earthforce carrier, captained by a close friend who had known him his days at the academy but nonetheless had remained loyal to Clark.
** In the fourth season Michael Garibaldi and [[The Captain|Sheridan]] have a falling out, evidently caused by Garibaldi's [[Post Dramatic Stress Disorder]] after being captured by the Shadows. It is later revealed that he has been [[Brainwashed]] by {{spoiler|[[The Chessmaster|Alfred Bester]]}}, who uses the [[The Pawn|unwitting]] {{spoiler|Garibaldi}} as a lever to alienate {{spoiler|[[Woobie, Destroyer of Worlds|Lyta]]}} so they'll be forced to make a deal with {{spoiler|Bester}}, [[Heel Face Turn|trick]] {{spoiler|Sheridan}} into [[Knockout Ambush|walking into a trap]] so he can be arrested by {{spoiler|[[President Evil|President Clark's]]}} men, and [[The Mole|discover]] the plot by {{spoiler|[[Well
* Ted and Barney for some time at the end of the third Season of ''[[How I Met Your Mother]]''.
* Briefly lampshaded in the fifth season of ''[[Friends]]'' when Ross tries to work things out with Emily by agreeing to never see Rachel again. Phoebe and Rachel even discuss setting up a new 'group'. It didn't happen. Apparently.
