History UnusuallyUninterestingSight / WesternAnimation

* In the original ''WesternAnimation/GIJoe'' cartoon, no one ever takes any notice of incredibly colorful military uniforms, often with tons of armament on them, wondering the streets when the Joes are in an urban environment.

** One consistent case is in regards to Klaus and Reginald, respectively a talking goldfish and a talking koala. This is explainedboth were originally humans, and had their consciousness swapped with the animal in question by the CIA, Klaus was an Olympic ski jumper the CIA kidnapped to give the US the win and Reginald was a random hobo who agreed to CIA testing for food, but even people who have no way of knowing that never bat an eye.

** A major point in "Season's Beatings" is that Hayley and Jeff accidentally adopt the Anti-Christ, and at some point he eventually possesses Steve, who begins climbing on walls with [[RedEyesTakeWarning his eyes turning red]] and his head facing the wrong way. There's only one instance in particular where anybody seems to notice, and even then they're barely interested in it.

** At the end of "Adventures in Hayley-Sitting", Steve, his friends, Hayley and Jeff all end up sort of taken hostage by a meth user who demands a receipt from a purchase Steve made earlier in the episode. They go to the house of the clerk who was working at the time, and the user immediately gets shot by the owner of the house. While he and his daughter, the clerk, are breaking down over the fact that he just blew a guy's head off, Steve, his friends, Hayley and Jeff have no reaction as they quietly slip away to go home.

** This notably is also applicable to Roger, while it is a recurring plot point that Roger needs to be disguised so the CIA can't find him it's frequently indicated that even while disguised people are still aware he's a small gray, noseless, man who's shaped like a bowling pin, and while there are times where this does come up, for the most part no one questions it.

* ''BatmanTheAnimatedSeries'': Mr. Freeze shows up to an upscale charity event with a freeze gun mounted on a truck. It looks like a giant piece of artillery. The valet looks at him for a moment before holding his hand out: "keys?"

''WesternAnimation/PuppyDogPals'': Nobody seems to find it strange or questions that there are two Pug puppies or their friends running around town free-range, let alone being able to board planes or go to different places all across the world without anyone even noticing. There is some TruthInTelevision in this, however, as there are many countries in the world where animals like dogs or cats are always roaming around on the streets in packs by themselves and people not really minding (unless they happen to be a danger or aggressive towards people). There are also dogs (who have figured out how transportation works) in Moscow who board trains, buses and other means of transportation, and, much like the humans in ''PuppyDogPals'', no one really bats an eye.

* In ''WesternAnimation/BojackHorseman'', no one seems to find it unusual that there are talking anthropomorphic animals (including the titular character) walking around and making tons of appearances in various types of media.

-->''Hey, brother. Chewing on hay? Yeah, that's cool.''

* In ''WesternAnimation/JusticeLeague'' and ''WesternAnimation/TeenTitans'', nobody ever seems to notice the heroes wearing costumes in their mundane lives. They're neither starstruck that WonderWoman is browsing their mall nor find it strange that green-skinned Beast Boy is at the arcade.

* In ''The Helpers in Your Neighborhood'', based on a not-yet-aired episode of ''WesternAnimation/DanielTigersNeighborhood'', Daniel Tiger and Dad Tiger venture out of the Neighborhood of Make Believe to meet real human helpers, as well as human children. Somehow, none of them are at all disturbed or surprised by the presence of sentient tiger walking in their midst. Nor, for that matter, does anyone fawn over them because they recognize them as characters from a favorite television show.

* In ''WesternAnimation/BojackHorseman'', no one seems to find it unusual that there are talking anthropomorphic animals walking around & starring in TV shows an movies.

** Likewise in ''WesternAnimation/TransformersAnimated'', the Autobots are recognized as Detroit's local superheroes, and so they are generally accepted as normal...and this is played with in the second season, where the destruction the battle with Megatron caused results in people being much more leery of them.
*** Given that Detroit already had supervillains (Angry Archer, Stilletto, Professor Princess) and superheroes (the Wraith), the giant space robots may not be the strangest thing the city's dealt with.
*** Detroit was also the capital of robotics technology in that universe. When Optimus Prime and his crew first emerge, battling a giant roach mutated by nanotechnology, local law enforcement just assumes that they are local inventor's latest project.

** Slightly discussed in the episode, "The Weird Winds of Winona", in which Mystery Inc. meets the team behind WesternAnimation/SpeedBuggy. While Fred, Daphne, Velma, and Shaggy seem unfazed by the idea of a talking car, Scooby does take notice.

* Most residents of Beach City from ''WesternAnimation/StevenUniverse'' seem oddly unfazed by the presence of three magical aliens, a magic half-alien kid, and the various weirdness said things entail. This could be explained by the Gems and their artifacts having been on Earth for most (if not all) of human history, having [[AlternateHistory various visible effects on the world]] from its cultures to its geography...if it wasn't for the fact that they isolated themselves from human societies, with very few humans showing any interest in them or the artifacts. Even out-of-towners, who are a ''bit'' more surprised by the weirdness, almost immediately grow to accept it. For example, Steven's estranged Uncle Andy is more concerned that his cousin Greg left the family, married, and had a kid without telling anyone moreso than the fact said marriage was to a shapeshifting alien space rock and said kid has her powers. The only human character in the show to regularly point out how weird all of this is [[JerkassFacade Lars]], and that's mainly because most misadventures Steven drags him into leave him worse off.

** "Bloody Mary" has a statue of the virgin Mary bleeding (out of her butt). The Pope then comes and declares that it isn't a miracle becase "chicks bleed out of their vaginas all the time."

** Given his owner is chalk white, it probably comes under [[AmazingTechnicolorPopulation cartoon racial spectrums]]. However, nobody notices that he has a protuding jaw.
