* ''[[×××HOLiC]]'' has Doumeki, who more often than not is involved in Watanuki's [[Embarrassing Rescue]]. Watanuki views him as a rival (mainly due to [[Love Triangle|Watanuki's convinction that Doumeki is vying for Himawari's affection]], which is all in his mind) while Doumeki clearly does not take him seriously. Later, the main reason Doumeki seems to show great annoyance at Watanuki's antagonistic view of him seems to be because he wants Watanuki to trust and... [[Ho Yay|like him more]]. |

** [[World's Most Beautiful Woman| Boa Hancock]] views [[Loveable Rogue| Nami]] and [[Cool Big Sis| Robin]] as rivals for [[The Ace| Luffy's]] heart. Not only are they both unaware that Boa hates them for being the sole women on Luffy's crew and are thus that much closer to him, but they also have yet to even meet her in person. Not to mention that Luffy [[Chaste Hero| doesn't have romantic feelings for ''anyone''.]] |

** Buggy perceives Shanks as a sort of [[Sitcom Arch Nemesis]], who he blames for making him eat a devil fruit and losing his ability to swim. Disregarding the ''huge'' discrepancy in strength, skill, and experience, Shanks is either completely unaware or selectively oblivious to this, thinking that they're still the same [[Heterosexual Life Partners]]/[[Vitriolic Best Buds]] they've always been since they were kids. Though in an title image after Marineford, they are showed eating and drinking at a bar together while laughing, so it seems Shank's opinion may be closer to the truth. |

** The true [[Big Bad]] of the series seems to be {{spoiler| a mysterious figure named Im, who seems to have some sort of grudge against four important characters, Luffy, Marshall D. Teach (aka Blackbeard), [[Shirahoshi|Shirahoshi]], and Nefertari Vivi, given how Im was seen looking at their [[Wanted Poster]]s and then slashing them with a rapier. While educated guesses can be made for all four, Im's true reasons for this (and overall motives in general) remain unknown.}} |
