* ''LightNovel/HighSchoolDXD'' has one incident where one of Issei's two usual bedmates is absent, so Akeno takes her place and, assuming it's what they do every night, promptly starts trying to climb Issei with the ever-innocent Asia right there with them. Issei gets a shoulder devil telling him to get Asia out of the room so he can have sex with Akeno... and a ''second devil'' on his other shoulder telling him to [[AThreesomeIsHot take them both]]. Issei himself is confused for a moment before remembering '''he''' is a Devil as well and wondering what else he should have expected.

* ''Manga/UchiNoMusumeNiTeODasuNa'': A small angel and demon pop up whenever Mei is subconsciously considering transforming into Honey the Hugger. The demon tries to convince to do transform while the angel tries to convince her not to. Unfortunately, the demon usually quiets the angel (first time by raping her, and the second by bagging her in her own dress) and Mei ends up transforming. However, when she reverts back the angel gets her violent revenge on the demon (first time by shooting her in the head and the second by tying her up and dragging her body with an ATV).

** Hinagiku gets her own versions late in the manga as well while she is sick in bed. Her angel self thinks she should just go to sleep to get better quickly, while her devil self thinks she should let Hayate (who's taking care of her) spoil her a bit. Hina covers devil!Hina in an empty cup and rolls over in her futon. Angel!Hina is proud of her...and then Hina calls to Hayate to ask for a peeled apple cut like rabbits. Her angel is upset but Hina argues that she is going to sleep, ''after'' letting Hayate spoil her for a bit.
