* ''Anime/YesPrettyCureFive'' is the first series of ''Franchise/PrettyCure'' featuring a FiveManBand.

* Usually races in ''InitialD'' start with a different countdown, but this one appears a few times.

* ScatmanJohn has "Ichi Ni San... Go" song, which (likely unintentionally) avenges what English language [[GratuitousEnglish suffered at the hands of Japanese media]]. Poor pronounciation, timing and emphasis, impossible syntax, you name it.

* ''WesternAnimation/SuperRobotMonkeyTeamHyperForceGo'' has five [[strike:Super]] Robot Monkeys.

** ''[[PumpItUp Pump It Up Pro 2]]'' has a different remix of the same "GO!" song mentioned above, with the same time signature issues.

* ''[[PrettyCure Yes! Pretty Cure 5 Go Go!]]'' is the second series of that franchise featuring a FiveManBand.

* The original title for ''Anime/SpeedRacer'' is ''Mach Go Go Go'' after the car, which is called the "Mach Go". So calling it the "Mach 5" in the dub [[{{Woolseyism}} just made sense]]. Since the word meaning "number" (when used for identifying vehicles) can be pronounced "go" as well, an accurate translation of the original title would be "Mach #5, Go!" - all 3 "go"s have different meanings.

* In the live-action ''[[MahouSenseiNegima Negima]]'' series (''Negima!!'', for those keeping score), they use it in the opening theme ''[[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4z0paA1zxdE&list=PL470347E1BF05F447&index=4&playnext=1 Pink Generation]]''. (Warning: Massive EarWorm ahead.) (This video has an English subtitle if you turn captions on.)

* ''Anime/GoLion'' (''{{Voltron}}'' in America) is made of five lions, and they shout [[GratuitousEnglish "Let's Go Lion!"]] before forming.

* ''YuGiOh5Ds'': Yusei's [[CoolBike D-Wheel]] is called the Yusei Go. [[http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Yusei_Go#Name Its Wikia page]] should give some insights on the many possible meanings/puns of the name.

** For those who care, "go" doesn't exactly mean "number," though it frequently can be used as such--it's a suffix attached to the name of a vehicle, which frequently do involve numbers but don't have to. E.g. [[{{Gigantor}} Tetsujin Nijuhachi-go]] is literally "Iron Man #28", but Anime/CaptainHarlock's ship, the Arcadia, is also referred to as "Arcadia-go" in Japanese.
