* In ''[[Chobits]]'', a secondary main character (the protagonist's friend), ends up marrying off their [[Cram School]] teacher saving her from a shaky relationship with her husband. Though in this case he was a 18-19 [[Ronin]] and she was in her mid-twenties and therefore this wasn't as iffy as usual for a CLAMP case of this trope.

** In a humorous twist, after Kei confirms his "marriage" to the principal, the principal reveals his own [[May–December Romance]] with a former student to them, leading both Kei and Mizuho to wonder whether it was entirely legal. Their wondering aloud about the girl's age, however, has the principal coughing at their moral inconsistency, prompting them not to inquire into the matter any further.
