29	* In ''Fanfic/InfinityTrainBlossomingTrail'', Chloe's stomach begins growling "like an angry Pyroar" when she's in Corginia. Justified because the previous chapter had her unable to finish her lunch at school -- because of how she was pressured to fight Ash -- and because she refused to eat any of the curries Mr. Mime made at the Cerise Lab (as curry was a food she and Goh ate but it's now a symbol of how they've drifted apart as friends).

41	* ''Manga/MyHeroAcademia'':
42	** In the fanfic, ''Fanfic/NeitherABirdNorAPlaneItsDeku'', Izuku still feels hungry despite the fact that [[EatingOptional he doesn't need to eat for as long as he has sunlight]]. His stomach growls after he accidentally froze his lunch with his SuperBreath while training, prompting Momo to bring him to a hole in the wall for a meal. It happens again on his second day at U.A., as he's too rattled by his encounter with Mister Mxyzptlk to bother eating breakfast that day. Itsuka hands him her yakisoba bread when she hears this.

(According to this user, she apparently has more than one stomach.)
48	** In "Rainbow Pie in the Eye", this happens a number of times. The first time it happens to Pinkie Pie, who records a sample of her stomach noises so she and Rainbow Dash can use it for a prank. And then it happens to Rarity, whose hungry belly growls twice during a sleepover with the rest of the Mane 6. Applejack thinks she hears Rarity's stomach growl a third time, but it was actually something else... namely, the recorded growling of Pinkie's stomach as she and Rainbow freak them out with a scary gorilla costume.
49	** In ''Fanfic/TheApprenticeTheStudentAndTheCharlatan'', Twilight's does this when she has been eating little for a week, due to her broken heart over Nova Shine's apparent cheating. Nova, looking to make amends because he didn't actualy do it, has prepared dinner for her and cleaned the treehouse among other things. She flatly responds that she isn't hungry, only for her stomach to growl loud enough for him to hear. Though she can't see his face, Twilight is reasonably sure he's grinning to himself while she marches over to grab food.

It happens once more in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oIqQ77yGJgU Episode 10]], following a long sparring session. Much like in Episode 4, it serves as an interruption, this time with Bowser's stomach interrupting a heart-to-heart conversation between Mario, Yoshi, and Luigi (with their own stomachs following suit).

71	* ''Fanfic/WeCanBeHeroesStevenUniverse'':
72	** Lapis' stomach growls after a particularly tense encounter with a rude towing company manager in chapter 6, much to her embarrassment and to her new friend Hurley's amusement, ultimately letting the chapter end on a silly and whimsical note.
