=== Straight Examples
== Anime and Manga ==
* Notably ''[[Slayers]]'', although Lina always seems to be the only useful member in the end.
* ''[[Sailor Moon]]'', especially the first season.
* ''[[Futari wa Pretty Cure]]'' and ''[[Futari wa Pretty Cure Splash Star|Splash*Star]]'' (but not ''[[Yes! Pretty Cure 5|YPC5]]'') take this to an extreme, in that its [[Magical Girl
** ''[[Yes! Pretty Cure 5]]'' does, however, focus on the team getting along. Strangely, it's the mature, [[Tall, Dark and Bishoujo]] Karen that causes all the problems.
* Even more so, the eponymous airships in ''[[Simoun]]'' can only be operated by two girls working as a team...and they're powered by the pilots [[Schoolgirl Lesbians|kissing each other]].

* ''[[Stargate SG-1|Stargate SG 1]]'' and ''[[Stargate Atlantis]]''.

=== Subversions
== [[Western Animation]] ==
* ''[[The Powerpuff Girls]]'': "Three Girls and a Monster" opens with the announcement that the City of Townsville has received an award for teamwork, and an example from the regular citizens being shown involving trash. However, Blossom and Buttercup are bickering over lots of things, picking up the hotline phone included. When the three girls finally meet the monster, one would expect the girls to defeat it by teaming up. Instead, Blossom and Buttercup continue to bicker while Bubbles gets the monster to leave town [[Talking the Monster to Death|by asking nicely]].
* ''[[Hey Arnold!]]'', "World Records": Might not have been an ''intentional'' subversion, but a subversion nonetheless. After several attempts by Arnold and Gerald to break a world record prove failures, Arnold comes up with the bright idea of getting all the neighborhood kids involved in making a giant pizza puff, using everyone's own special talent (Stinky's ability to wrap sleeping bags helps him fold the crust, Phoebe makes sauce, Gerald cuts vegetables). In the end however, that attempt is also unsuccessful, and their actual record comes from out of left field.<ref>"Most Attempts at Trying To Get a World Record".</ref>
