* ''[[Pandora Hearts]]'': Gil's younger brother, Vincent, is [[Yandere|extremely possessive]] of him.
* Yui & Ui from [[K-On!]] are VERY close...Both are extremely affectionate towards the other, Ui has ended up crying at the realization Yui will be/is gone on vacation. Ui's character song is literally titled [[What Do You Mean Its Not Symbolic|"Lovely Sister LOVE"]] while Yui wrote what amounts to a love song to Ui...
* In ''[[Mobile Suit Gundam (Anime)|Mobile Suit Gundam]]'', there are rather questionable actions Gihren Zabi takes in the series concerning his sister Kycilia. Firstly there's the indifferent behavior Gihren has towards Garma and Dozle's deaths, and having no qualms with [[Self -Made Orphan|killing Degwin]], but yet specifically stating that he plans to rule the new Zeon with ''[[Terms of Endangerment|"dear sister"]]''. Then also going out of his way to make sure Kycilia was warned about the Solar Ray firing by a messenger so she wouldn't be killed, the same weapon that intentionally killed daddy. And of course there's the [[Green-Eyed Monster|dark tone of voice]] he used when Kycilia ''dared'' to mention having Char pilot the Zeong, saying "Char, once again. You're obsessed with him." Not coming to the logical conclusion that Kycilia might have chosen Char due to his newtype potential, but getting emotional over it instead. Completely one-sided, it's a mixture of [[Stalker With a Crush|Gihren]] imagining [[Unresolved Sexual Tension|sexual tension]] to feed [[Villainous Incest|his fantasy]] [[Birds of a Feather|because she shares some of his beliefs]] [[Cannot Spit It Out|but of course cannot say anything about it]]. Kycilia is of course [[I Didn't Mean to Turn You On|unaware to any of this conflict]] and rather cares more about their [[Self -Made Orphan|dead dad]]. Can lead to [[No Yay]] for obvious reasons.
* The ''artists'' for both the ''[[Higurashi no Naku Koro Ni]]'' manga and anime adaptations really played up the twincest in official art. It doesn't help that there actually is some subtext in the anime, even though both have male love interests.
** In the original [[Visual Novel]], Shion actually says to Mion that "If you were a guy, I would fall in love with you". Curiously, she did NOT add "and if we weren't related".

* Affection between [[Angelina Jolie]] and her brother James Haven (including some rather fond words and a kiss at the Y2K [[Academy Award|Academy Awards]]) raised enough scandal to [[Tabloid Melodrama|feed the tabloids]] for the rest of the year.
* ''[[The Veronicas]]'' play up the [[Girl -On -Girl Is Hot|lesbian]] [[Twincest]] in a similar way ''[[t.A.T.u.]]'' did. Even when they aren't doing it on purpose though, it tends to be there.
* [http://gawker.com/#!5727738/how-close-is-too-close-between-mother-and-son/gallery/1 Pictures] of model Stephanie Seymour's trip to the beach with her son Peter prompted some interesting rumors. However, both have denied these rumors. In fact, Peter is [http://www.salon.com/life/feature/2011/01/11/stephanie_seymour_kissing_son openly gay].
* And on the "romance is textual, but relationship is not" axis, we have Daddy/boy and Daddy/girl BDSM relationships.
