[[File:Clearly not a lineart to be trifled with.png|link=Word Girl|frame|Clearly not a lineart to be trifled with.]]
Line 20:
* Some episodes of ''[[Digimon Savers]]'' animate the child-level [[Mons]] in this style, particularly in the series' tail end. It's very inconsistently done and is probably a product of the [[Off-Model]] [[Art Shift]]s which plague the series.
=== [[Film]] ===
* ''[[A Scanner Darkly]]''
* ''[[The Secret of Kells]]'', though it was [[Invoked]] purposely to resemble medieval illustrations.
Line 32:
* [[Hanna-Barbera]]'s resurrection after several years in the wilderness in the 90s led to the renaissance of the style and its increased use in modern animated series.
** ''[[Two Stupid Dogs]]''
** ''[[Dexter's
** ''[[The Powerpuff Girls]]''
** ''[[Johnny Bravo]]''
* ''[[Clerks the Animated Series]]''
Line 43:
* ''[[Atomic Betty]]''
* ''[[Kappa Mikey]]'': Played with, where only Mikey is drawn this way; his Japanese costars have thin outlines and are [[Animesque]].
* The Henry and June shorts on ''[[KaBlam!]]
* ''[[Xiaolin Showdown]]''
* ''[[Yin Yang Yo!
* ''[[Wow! Wow! Wubbzy!]]''.
* ''[[Class of 3000]]''
Line 58:
* ''[[Teamo Supremo]]''
* ''[[Total Drama Island|Total Drama Island/ Action/ World Tour/ Reloaded]]''
* ''[[Batman: The Brave
* ''[[Blazing Dragons]]'' (The cartoon not the video game) Season 2 had thick lines (along with some radical changes in character design) that was a sharp contrast to the cleaner look of season 1.
* ''[[Word Girl]]''
Line 65:
* ''[[Trollz]]''
* All of the marine animals from ''[[Fish Hooks]]''.
* ''[[My Little Pony:
* ''[[Sym-Bionic Titan]]''
* ''[[Invader Zim]]'', uses this in a few episodes; Zim's antennae are noticeably thicker than usual in them.
Line 72:
* ''[[Almost Naked Animals]]''
* Some of the cel-animated characters from ''[[The Amazing World of Gumball]]''
* ''[[Clone High]]'' almost looks like it shares the same character designers as ''[[Dexter's
* Any season one episode of ''[[Tiny Toon Adventures]]'' animated by [[Wang Film Productions]] and -due to inconsistency- [[Kennedy Cartoons]].
* ''[[Good Vibes]]''
* [[101 Dalmatians|''101 Dalmatians: The Series'']]
* ''[[Eliot Kid]]''
* ''[[Boj]]''
* ''[[Doodlebops Rockin' Road Show]]''
* ''[[Oddballs]]'': While the art style is usually thin-line, some of the characters and objects have thick black borders around them.
=== [[Video Games]] ===

* Esurance insurance commercials.

* Ditto for later installments of the
* Faye's flashbacks in ''[[Questionable Content]]''.
* The entire run of ''[[Garanos]]''.
* Cast of ''[[Homestuck]]'' is normally represented by chibi-like "sprites" with outline, but lose it and gain normal human proportions when in [[Crowning Moment of Awesome|Hero Mode]].
=== [[Western Animation]]
* ''[[Samurai Jack]]'' sported ''no'' outlines. Genndy Tartakovsky once mentioned how this contrasted with his last work, ''[[Dexter's Laboratory]]''.
* Same with ''[[Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends]]''.
* ''[[The X's]]''
* ''[[6teen]]''
* ''[[Stoked]]''
