* The [[Babies Ever After]] scene at the end of ''[[Digimon Adventure 02]]'' played this unsettlingly straight, right down to the last child. Between that and the conspicuous absence from the reunion of any spouses who aren't former Chosen Children, it's a popular snark among fans dissatisfied with the ending to suggest that they all just cloned themselves. |

* ''[[K-On!]]'' has the Hirasawa sisters, who resemble each other to the point where the younger sister (almost) successfully passed herself off as the older sister once. After that, the resemblance is [[lampshaded]] and [[Played for Laughs]] on occasion. |
