* In ''[[Futaba-Kun Change!|Futaba Kun Change]]'' Misaki gets the temporary ability to turn into a boy when she's transfused with [[Gender Bender|Futaba's]] blood. Later justified as her latent Shimeru genes (apparently quite widespread in the Japanese population) being activated by Futaba's active genderbending factor.
* In ''[[Rosario + Vampire]]'', Tsukune receives a temporary [[Emergency Transformation]] from Moka by injecting her blood into him whenever he injures himself while [[Taking the Bullet|protecting his friends]]. Eventually, it becomes permanent... [[With Great Power Comes Great Insanity|with consequences]].

* [[The Savage Dragon]] once let his blood be used in an attempt to cure a friend's AIDS. It seemed to work at first—restoring him to full health, making him stronger, even giving him green skin and a fin—but within minutes, he exploded. Years later, after [[The Syndicate|The Vicious Circle]] steals a supply of his blood from the hospital, their [[Evil Genius]]es figure out a way to keep people alive much longer after being injected. But it turns out that regular doses are necessary in order to keep delaying the explosion, so when Dragon-blood-enhanced supercriminals get arrested, they end up exploding while in custody.
* ''[[PS238]]'' this was turned the other way - blood from a superhero was used to "give atomic wedgie" to an otherwise unbeatable infection. Also, the problem with blood transfusion from ''bulletproof'' donors was discussed. After which they had to deal with the part where those [[Made of Iron]] cells run out of virus and start to attack the host's body, of course.
* In ''[[The Lands of Arran|Elves]]'' one of the safer ways to deal with untamed dragons is blood transfusion. If a humanoid has some fresh dragon blood (usually done via injection of a mix with one's own), they sense it and won't perceive one as prey. Then pumping some of the mix back into the dragon helps to command it. This needs to be repeated regularly to maintain the effects, of course. Consequences of dragon blood overdose may vary, especially if combined with unrelated necromantic effects, exotic poisons, pregnancy or fever. It's obscure, presumably because sensible people think in terms of having a domesticated dragon purchased or issued, rather than looking into crazy alchemical experiments to get a feral one if everything works well.
