| 11 | When you are creating a work in which two clearly distinct entities are in conflict or compete against each other, a common way to name your work is to identify the two entities and insert a word or symbol indicating the conflict. |
| 12 | |
| 13 | These most frequently take the form of ''X Versus Y'' (or ''X vs Y''). Titles of this form were particularly common for older {{B Movie}}s, and is now something of a DeadHorseTrope within that field, though often used straight in homages. They continue to be frequently used in names of episodes of {{Western Animation}}s and [[LiveActionTV Live-Action TV shows]]. |
| 14 | |
| 15 | Another variant, replacing "Versus" with a simple X, as in ''Alice X Bob'', is particularly common in VideoGames developed in Japan. Where it is a crossover, it may take the form of ''X Meets Y'', although these are relatively rare. Not to be confused with the JustForFun page JustForFun/XMeetsY, which describes works as combinations of two or more other works. |
| 16 | |
| 17 | May involve an UltimateShowdownOfUltimateDestiny or CoolVersusAwesome. Where both entities are antagonists, this may be an AntagonistTitle. Similar to TheNounAndTheNoun and NameAndName. Often mirrors CharacterNameAndTheNounPhrase. |

| 324 | * ''Series/SmartGuy'' episode "T.J. versus the Machine". |
| 325 | * Common in Creator/{{Toei|Company}}'s {{Toku}} series: |
| 326 | ** The ''Franchise/SuperSentai'' "Vs. Series" featuring two teams together in a {{crossover}}. However, it's rare for the "vs." to actually mean that the teams end up fighting each other; more often they become allies immediately. |
| 327 | ** ''Super Sentai''’s use of this is {{Parodied}} in ''Series/HikoninSentaiAkibaranger'' - after the team's show is [[HostileShowTakeOver taken over]] by ''[[Franchise/UltraSeries Ultraman]]'' {{pastiche}} ''Hikonin Kyoujin Prism Ace'', they convince the studio executives to produce an "Akibaranger vs Prism Ace" team-up movie so they can have one last hurrah. However, as soon as the movie starts they [[CombinedEnergyAttack form their team bazooka]] and shoot Prism Ace in the face, mocking him for not knowing what "versus" means. |
| 328 | ** ''Franchise/KamenRider''’s ''Movie Wars'' series initially start their titles with "Kamen Rider × Kamen Rider [X] & [Y]", though like with its ''Sentai'' counterpart Kamen Rider [X] and Kamen Rider [Y] tend to work together rather than fight each other. |
| 329 | ** And then there's the multi-franchise ''Superhero Taisen'' series, which like with ''Movie Wars'' starts its titles with a form of "[X] X [Y]": the first and fifth were "Kamen Rider X Super Sentai", the second was "Kamen Rider X Super Sentai X Series/{{Space Sheriff|Gavan}}", and the third is "Heisei Rider vs. Showa Rider" (referring to the two subdivisions of the ''Kamen Rider'' franchise). In these cases, though, the various sides ''do'' fight each other. |
| 330 | ** It finally appears in a series itself with ''Series/KaitouSentaiLupinrangerVSKeisatsuSentaiPatranger'', which features two heroic teams competing with one another. Played with in that "VS" is used in contexts besides just meaning "versus"; the teams' shared tech is called the "VS System" (pronounced Vee-Ess, with VS Changers, VS Vehicles, etc.) and each team wears one of the letters as their logo (the Lupinrangers wear a V insignia while the Patrangers have the S). Noel Takao, inventor of the VS System and a member of both teams, refers to the Lupinrangers and Patrangers collectively as the "VS Sentai". It isn't made clear if VS stands for anything in-universe; the closest it gets is that later in the series the Lupinrangers receive a '''V'''ictory Striker mecha while the Patrangers’ counterpart is a '''S'''iren Striker. |
| 331 | * ''Series/{{Survivor}}: Fans vs. Favorites'' (twice), ''Heroes vs. Villains'', et cetera. A variant in ''Blood vs. Water'' (twice), where the title doesn't refer to the castaways. |
| 332 | * ''Series/TheBeverlyHillbillies'' episode "Granny Versus the Weather Bureau". |
| 333 | * ''Series/TheManyLovesOfDobieGillis'' episode "Dobie Versus the Machine". |
