Line 30:
* The tower is the key to accessing deadly doomsday weapons on the moon base in ''[[Please Save My Earth]]''.
* In ''[[Eyeshield 21]]'', the Deimon Devil Bats rent out the tower for the afternoon as part of Hiruma's "Tower of Hell" test, where potential recruits for the team must carry ice up the stairs to the upper observatory on a hot day.
* In the anime ''[[Mahou Tsukai ni Taisetsu na Koto]]'' (''Someday's Dreamers]]''), the Tokyo Tower is 'bent' by a girl's magical powers. This was in a desperate attempt to impress someone, so she couldn't muster the power to fix it. Fortunately, her tutor apparently can, as the tower appears intact in subsequent episodes.
* Tokyo's city hall is a distinctive building with two tall square-ish towers, each of which has an observation deck on top. In a pinch, it can function as a substitute Tokyo Tower.
** This happens in ''[[Angel Sanctuary]]''.
Line 51:
* In ''[[Detroit Metal City]]'', DMC's fans overanalyze something Krauser says at the end of a concert, thinking it means to gather at the Tokyo Tower and chant his name. Negichi, as Krauser, goes to the Tower to make them stop. However, it ends with him ''raping'' the Tower. Naturally, the fans love it.
* The Tokyo Tower is seen in both the [[Anime]] and live action [[Film]] versions of ''[[Death Note]]''.
* Lampshaded in ''[[Keroro Gunsou]]'' - the Nishizawa Radio Tower may look nothing like the Tokyo Tower, but does all the things the Tokyo towerTower would in other anime, etc. One time Giroro gets warped into a post-apocalyptic wasteland, where he finds a derelict Nishizawa radio tower in ruins. {{spoiler|Turns out the tower was merely obsoleted and abandoned along with the surrounding land, and there's three other towers not far away that have also undergone this.}}
* In ''[[Transformers: Robots in Disguise]]'', X-Brawn drives to the top of the tower to chuck a bomb into space.
* It gets ''knocked into orbit'' along with a monster in ''[[Super Dreadnought Girl 4946]]'', and manages to impale the monster when they hit the moon.
