Join the Five-Man Band cleanup project!Since the previous wick check was kind of small, I've decided to make an additional one (pardon the Example Indentation violation):
- Recap.Archer S 2 E 1 Swiss Miss:
- The Jailbait Wait: Archer alludes to this with Anka, telling her to call him when she's eighteen. The AOC in Switzerland is 16
- Girl Meets World:
- In the same episode, the college girls telling Maya that her 3 years age difference with Josh won't matter when she gets to college and they are 18 and 21 respectively, which disturbingly comes off as them encouraging The Jailbait Wait.
- In "Girl Meets Game Night," Maya tells Josh she understands he's too old for her, but she's "in it for the long game." Which implies some sort of weird, inverted Jail Bait Wait. Both of which seem to be set in New York, where the AOC is 17
- My Babysitter's a Vampire:
- The Jailbait Wait: Implied, and a rare male example (although since the age of consent in Canada is sixteen, it's only two years). Come season three, when Ethan turns sixteen... Sounds like the closed-in-age exemption may apply
- Everyone Has Standards:
- Family Guy:
- While Glenn Quagmire does a lot of perverted things, there are some lines he won't cross, like sleeping with Meg when she's desperate for affection (and underage). Of course, once she's 18, she's fair game. Quagmire also doesn't like when a woman is attacked, especially when he learns his sister, Brenda, was being abused. He goes so far as killing Jeffery Fecalman, Brenda's abusive boyfriend, for this. The AOC in Rhode Island, the supposed setting, is 16
- Family Guy:
- 25th Hour
- Jail Bait/Jail Bait Wait: Mentioned by Frank and Jacob when Jacob mentions that he’s attracted to one of his students. Frank tells him that he only needs to wait seven months. The age of consent in New York is 17
- YMMV.Broadchurch
- Values Dissonance: The age of consent in Britain is 16, which can cause certain scenes to seem strange to people who live in areas where it is 18:
- Jack makes a point to note that had he waited a few weeks for his 15-year-old lover's birthday, their romance would have been perfectly legal. In many places, however, the girl was more than two years too young to be having sex with any adult, even ignoring the fact that he was 40.
- The Latimers make a big deal about the fact that their 15-year-old daughter is dating a 17-year-old. This seems weird to them because the boy is an adult. In many places, both are still seen as minors, so it doesn't seem like such a big deal.
- The same happens in reverse in countries where the age is 15 or lower (for example, most of mainland Europe).
- Values Dissonance: The age of consent in Britain is 16, which can cause certain scenes to seem strange to people who live in areas where it is 18:
- TruthInTelevision.J To L
- The Jailbait Wait: Depending on the state, you may not even have to wait. Some go as low as 14. Some have "Romeo and Juliet" clauses allowing a young adult to go ahead with an older teen. But yes, people have been known to do this.
- Langt fra Las Vegas:
- The Jailbait Wait: Episode 2 is essentially about this. Casper meets Kim's niece who is 14 years old but turns 15 years old the next Friday. His flirting with her is so obvious that it is like being hit by a hammer. However, he waits to she turns 15 before he wants to have sex with her. He doesn't succeed.
- Soap
- Jail Bait Wait: Billy and his teacher, Leslie, may date while he is still a minor, but don't actually sleep together until his 18th birthday. From what I know, Connecticut has stricter rules for teacher-and-student intercourse than from regular sex, where the AOC is 16
- Trivia.The Reader
- Jail Bait Wait: A meta example. David Kross, who played the younger Michael, was seventeen during filming. They waited until after he had turned eighteen to film the sex scenes.
- Change of Circumstances:
- The Jailbait Wait: Light assumes that this would be his present on his 18th birthday. L was clueless. Hilarity Ensues.
L: Light-kun, is there a particular reason you presumed I would show up unannounced at the stroke of midnight the moment you became legal to ravish you? - Characters.My Hero Academia Other Heroes
- Mrs. Robinson: Pixie-Bob, while praising Midoriya, Iida, Bakugou, and Todoroki for defeating her magic beast can't wait to see what their potential will be like in three years.
- Characters.Super Gals
- The Jailbait Wait: For how much Miyu and him wish to be intimate, they won't do more than the occasional kiss (when they aren't interrupted), and are explicitly waiting for their marriage.
- Chaste Hero: Despite the Gals' fame as promiscuous, she's still a virgin and proud of it, and in fact advises people to not even give a single kiss until they're sure of their partner's feelings (one of the people she advised this way was Miyu, whose problem with her boyfriend was that he was waiting for her to get older for that kiss). Also not certain if it's about sex at all
- Unreality
- The Jailbait Wait: a consistent ticking clock within the series as Dominic patiently waits for both him & Sarah to become adults so he can Shiver Her Timbers, except that ticking clock is never going to go off.
- Characters.Guilty Gear X
- Jail Bait Wait: Her win quote against Bridget.
Jam: "That smell... Hey, you're a guy, aren't you? Come back and visit me in five years, kid." - Irredeemable
- Ephebophile: Max Damage likes 'em young: he met sidekick/girlfriend Jailbait in a brothel when she was fifteen and he somewhere between 30 and 40. She's sixteen when the series rolls around, but his Heel–Face Turn drove him to break up with her for a Jailbait Wait. Also not certain if it's about sex or a legal obligation
- Characters.The Saga Of Darren Shan
- Jail Bait Wait: Subverted. As an adult, she refused to get involved with Darren who looked like a teen, but when Darren's second Purge started in Lord of Shaddows, and he explained to her that he'd not only be turned into a full vampire, but will also grow up to look his actual age in a few weeks, she was quite happy to point out that this means he won't be a boy anymore, but a man. Also not clear whether it's about sex or not
- Vapors
- Reasonable Authority Figure: Tsunade.
- Also, even if a memory-wipe jutsu made him forget the details, Minato’s subconscious reaction to the idea that future!Kakashi is sleeping with his daughter is to ask them to wait until she turns seventeen. The writeup suggests that the setting has a specific AOC
- Reasonable Authority Figure: Tsunade.
- Characters.Degrassi Graduating Class Of Season 11:
- The Jailbait Wait: After she tells Dr. Chris that she's really 17, she tries to continue the relationship with him by assuring him that she'll be 18 soon. However, Dr. Chris couldn't deal with her age and initial lie and lets her know he was never serious about her. May also be Hollywood Law, since Degrass is a Canadian show and the AOC in Canada is 16
- Recap.Stargate SG 1 S 9 E 10 The Fourth Horseman Part 1
- The Jailbait Wait: Orlin tells Carter that his feelings for her haven't changed, and while he understands the taboo that would prevent them having a relationship while he's in a much younger body, he's hopeful they can pick things up where they left off in a few years. Carter looks faintly disturbed by the whole discussion. Also doesn't sound like a legal obligation
- Tuck Everlasting
- The Jailbait Wait: Jesse gave Winnie some of the water, intending for her to use it when she was of marriageable age. She gave the water to a toad instead. Also doesn't sound like a legal obligation
- YMMV.Bobs Burgers
- One True Pairing: Louise and Logan Barry Bush is more popular than any other pairing, including those involving Tina. Considering that Logan is fifteen, most shippers are quick to point out that their fanworks include Jailbait Wait and a Time Skip.
Gene: "I bet when you reconnect in your thirties you guys will get married." - Informed Wrongness
- In Treading Ground, protagonist Nate was cast as a repressed asshole by his and Rose's circle of friends for not giving in to Rose's advances, up to and including Rose stripping in front of him. Somehow lost in all of this is that Rose was 17 and Nate was in his 20s. And the fact that Rose agreed to wait until she was 18 before they pursued anything more than Just Friends (an agreement they came to when she was 16). It was heavily implied early on that Nate came up with that pact hoping Rose would get tired of waiting and move on to someone closer to her age, but that line of thought seemed to have been dropped by the end. Possible intentional Moral Dissonance at work.
- It was brought up in-story that the age of consent in their state (South Carolina) is 16, and that neither Rose nor Nate - possibly intentionally on his part - were aware of this. Which still leaves the ridiculous idea that Nate was a jerk for not wanting to sleep with a teenager (even one as willing as Rose).
- Even if she was his age, there would still be nothing at all wrong with the refusal. As noted also Hollywood Law
- In Treading Ground, protagonist Nate was cast as a repressed asshole by his and Rose's circle of friends for not giving in to Rose's advances, up to and including Rose stripping in front of him.

Possible intentional Moral Dissonance at work.
- YMMV.Little House On The Prairie
- Values Dissonance: Laura's youth at the beginning of her and Almanzo's courtship wasn't at all unusual in the 1880's (she was 15 and he 25, which would garner a visit from Chris Hansen in today's world, but back then many, many women were married before the age of 20; if you were still single at 25 odds are people called you a spinster). Fridge Logic can hit that with a potential case of Surprise Creepy, though, when you consider he first met her when she was thirteen, and wonder just how much of a conscious Jail Bait Wait went on there. Laura failed her spot check when he first started courting her, but Ma definitely wasn't happy about it, precisely because Laura was only fifteen. Fortunately for Almanzo, Pa didn't seem to have any problem with it, but read from an adult 21st century perspective (especially a parental perspective), it can seem unintentionally creepy.
- Characters.Mobile Suit Gundam Iron Blooded Orphans Civilians And Other Organizations
- Jail Bait Wait: Engaged to McGillis, but they have to wait for several years before she's legally old enough. People talk behind their backs about how McGillis is robbing the cradle. Takes an even more disturbing twist when McGillis secures her loyalty by implying he'll be able to skip the wait once his plans come to fruition.
- Headscratchers.Real Genius
- What age is Mitch when Sherry Nugil vamps on him? Her dialogue states that she waited three years for him to be legal, and the age of consent in California is 18. Since he comes to "Pacific Tech" at 15, that means that one of several things must be the case:
- ShipTease.Literature:
- Temeraire: Yet another small portion of the fanbase ships Laurence/Emily Roland, Jane Roland's daughter - despite neither character showing any affection of a romantic nature towards each other [as of Crucible of Gold]; Laurence's and Emily's age differences (Lawrence is in his 30's, while Emily is still a preteen); the fact that Lawrence slept with, and even proposed to, her mother, and the ship being just a little bit creepy. Might also have "fictional universe" issues
- YMMV.ABBA
- "Does Your Mother Know" is about trying to invoke the Jailbait Wait, in the sense that a legal minor is all but throwing themselves at the singer. Very much not kid-friendly.
- SoCalization
- A teenager will always be "legal" at the age of 18, as if this is the age of consent for the entire country. In reality, that's not even close to the truth. Each state◊ has its own age of consent, and only eleven of them have it at 18, California being one of them. It's 16 in most of them (thirty) and 17 in the others. Also, most states have exceptions if both are younger than the age of consent, or one is at it but the other is slightly below; California, however, has no close-in-age exemptions at all. Also, it is a federal offense in the United States to take a minor across state lines for the purpose of engaging in sexual intercourse. If Hollywood Age Of Consent were a trope, it'd be a more apropos citation there
- Headscratchers.Victorious
- Well Jade does show jealous tendencies toward any girl who comes anywhere near Beck. And considering the number of girls constantly fawning over Beck (The group of girls who gathered to watch him fix Robbie's car, the director's assistant from "The Wood," the female paramedic who asked if he was in college, etc...) her jealously seems pretty justified. And while Beck doesn't show any desire to actually cheat on Jade, he does seem to like the attention. Also not terribly clear if it's about sex or not
- WMG.Doki Doki Precure:
- Joe: he's already creepily close to Mana since the start. Also, he's always calling her 'My Sweet Heart'. Him being Marie-Ange's fiance sunk the ship...at first. But then we have a certain revelation: that Marie-Ange has been split into three underaged girls, one of which is a baby he's been taking care of. If Marie-Ange isn't going to back without sacrificing her Literal Split Personalities (which is against Mana's ideal), and Joe can't stand The Jailbait Wait, he might go with Mana after all.
- FanficRecs.Sailor Moon:
- Synopsis: Usagi's a big girl now and she knows what she wants from her boyfriend. Unfortunately for her, Mamoru is determined to sit out The Jailbait Wait and not let her rush into anything until he says she's old enough. Irritated and fed up with her boyfriend's white knight routine, Usagi makes an only-half-serious wish on the ginzuishou to become "big"... and by the power of Contrived Coincidence, she happens to do so on a night when the moon is in just the right spot to power up the crystal for a free wish. Boom, instant 21-year old Moon Princess. Commence Operation: Seduce Tux-Boy! It also doesn't sound like a legal obligation
- Funny.The Legend Of Heroes Trails Of Cold Steel
- When Angelica meets Millium for the first time, she takes a rather unhealthy liking to her, with Rean providing some rather amusing commentary.
Angelica: Oh my, what a cutie she was! I'd welcome HER into my harem with open arms... Actually, wait, I suppose that'd be a criminal offence.Rean: Do you ever try thinking about what you're going to say before you say it?Angelica: Heh, not to worry, I'm a proper law-abiding citizen! Besides, waiting for a young bud to ripen and burst into bloom really waters my garden. - Catch-22 Dilemma
- One Piece:
- Discussed in the Fishman Island arc, during a flashback: Vander Decken is talking about marrying Princess Shirahoshi for her latent powers, who was still 6 at the time. His subordinate then tells him about a national treasure, a kind of drug that can age up whoever consumes it, and it might solve the age problem. The problem is, as said subordinate points out, the treasure is tightly guarded by the royal palace and the only legal way to obtain it is... marrying the royalty (the princess, in this case). In the end, though, Decken just decides to wait until she's aged normally.
- One Piece:
- Final Fantasy VI
- Ship Tease:
- Edgar, being a Casanova Wannabe, gets Ship Tease with every female party member at one point or another, even Relm. Depending on the translation, he either has the decency to be squicked about it or implies that he's up for a Jailbait Wait.
- Ship Tease:
- YMMV.Neverwinter Nights 2
- Fan-Preferred Couple:
- Male Knight Captain/Neeshka and Female Knight Captain/Bishop or Sand. Neeshka was an option but cut due to time; even so, the leftovers have several flirtatious lines that, to some people, flow better than the sudden confessions of stalking and Jailbait Wait from the actual love interest. This hit such a level that one of the developers tried to defend the game's Official Couple, claiming that Neeshka was never intended to be anyone's love interest, and that the devs didn't understand nor appreciate the fans' fervor along such lines. No one believed a word of it. Also not certain if it's about sex or not
- Fan-Preferred Couple:
- Characters.The Legend Of Heroes Trails Of Cold Steel
- Jail Bait Wait: If Rean chooses her for his final bonding event, she tells him that if he's still interested in her in a few years she'll make it worth the chase. Also not certain if it's about sex or not
- The Obsidian Trilogy
- Jailbait Wait: Jermayan is more than happy to wait for the newly reborn Idalia to grow up, pointing out that he's already waited several years for her (she didn't want to marry him because of the Mayfly–December Romance problem) and thought she was dead permanently. Also not certain if it's about sex or not
- Garden of Shadows:
- Jail Bait Wait: Garland apparently waited several years before marrying Alicia at the ripe age of sixteen.
- TookALevelInBadass.Literature
- Robert A. Heinlein's The Door into Summer features Daniel Boone Davis, an engineer who loses his company to his business partner and secretary/former fiancee only to use time travel to and from the future to gain revenge by starting a competing company using knowledge from the future to drive his former partners out of business, and dropping the dime on his former fiancee's legal and financial indiscretions, and aging up a young girl who had a crush on him to an appropriate age where they could get legally married
- Characters.My Monster Secret:
- The Jailbait Wait: A variant of the trope. Although Sakurada is already 18 when he confesses to her and she does accept his feelings, she makes it clear that they can't act as a couple until he graduates. May also be Hollywood Law
- Recap.Parks And Recreation S 02 E 23
- The Jailbait Wait: Of a sort. Andy already came to like April over time but had only started considering her as a possible romantic interest once she turned 21.
- Yuureitou
- The Jailbait Wait: Marube makes it clear he is waiting for Satoko to turn twenty so he can rape her.
- Characters.Hunter X Hunter Main Characters
- Jail Bait Wait: Or something like it. He's waiting for Gon and Killua (whom he refers to as "unripe fruits") to become stronger, so that they'll be able to put up a more arousing fight when he finally decides to "pick" them. May also have "fictional universe" issues
- Funny.The Co Optional Podcast
- Also from that episode, the talk about Jesse liking his players 18 plus.
Dodger: "And now when people find you at conventions they can look at their ID and say, 'You know, next year'."TB bursts out laughingJesse: Here's the thing, I'll look at them and say 'For you, I'll wait'
- YMMV.ICarly
- The Jailbait Wait: Spencer/Sam. Also, this trope does not go on YMMV pages
- Rasputin Barxotka:
- The Jailbait Wait: Marlborina initially instigates it, though as the story progresses Marlborina wants it over with.
- I Will Wait for You
- Worked out pretty easily and straightforwardly in The Death of the Vazir Mukhtar (also combined with Jail Bait Wait, at least presumably).
- Surprisingly Similar Characters
- This blonde-haired Gadgeteer Genius is a figure of importance in his hometown. However, he leaves said hometown and, along with his younger (and also blonde) sibling, travels in a company that is sometimes beset by a tentacled creature (whose plot was dropped halfway through the story). Said inventor is not The Hero of this story, however. That role belongs to the party member who turns out to be from another land, doesn't understand romance, (much to the dismay of one of the hero's companions,) and has a latent power related to that of mythical beasts like the ones the party often comes into contact with and even obtain and use in battle; regaining memories of said Hero's past is the key to unlocking the Hero's true and unique power.
This group is eventually tasked to fight against an evil organization which employs technology in order to extract the powerful essences of these aforementioned beasts and must ultimately defeat an Omnicidal Maniac, with the Genius himself having to save his home. Among the friends the group makes are a cuddly slam-dancer, someone whose hobby is creating visual records of local fauna, and someone who worked for the evil organization at one point in the story and looks on their past with regret. Another person who works for the organization attacks the maniac once they also realize the organization's goals are not what they signed on for.
Finally, a blonde-haired girl is very interested in the genius' love life.
The genius and the hero are King Edgar Figaro and Terra Branford respectively, right? Try Clemont, Leader of the Lumiose City Gym, and Ash Ketchum from the Pokemon Anime; specifically the XY series. ~Donald The Potholer is this your entry?

- Suke Sho ([https://web.archive.org/web/20100524223554/https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/SukeSho Archived URL] has a zero context example
There is currently nothing in the description that allows for marriage to be considered for this trope, nor as a proxy for an AOC.
