** A more amusing case of this comes in ''Anime/DragonBallSuper'', where we're shown various other universes in addition to the one the original Dragon Ball is set in. Universe 3 is one where technology reigns supreme, and its Supreme Kai has acclimated so well he comes off more like an eager lab assistant rather than the guardian god he really is.

* Sunset Shimmer in the ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyEquestriaGirls'' films and specials is a unicorn who ran away from [[WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic the source show]]'s setting to the human world, and spends years plotting revenge on her PhysicalGod mentor. Even after being defeated she's forced to stay behind, but later rejects an offer to return to her home dimension, as that would mean abandoning the friends she's made.

This is emphasized in ''[[WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyEquestriaGirlsMagicalMovieNight Mirror Magic]]'', where several of the opening jokes surround the fact that Sunset has all but forgotten that she was originally a unicorn, needing to be reminded that she should be walking on all fours and can use levitation magic when briefly visiting Equestria.

* Due to a [[ForWantOfANail nail]], Enterprise and Yamato in the ''VideoGame/KanColle'' fic ''FanFic/{{Eternity}}'' ended up switching nations after the War. Enterprise, now Yonaga, ended up serving Japan for so long that she gained the titular nickname ''Eien'', and in her own admission this service helped her to unwind from the near permanment RoaringRampageOfRevenge mentality she had during the Pacific War. Yamato, now USS Montana, saw quite a bit action during her service, which makes her happy after being a figurehead during the War.

* ''Fanfic/TheDragonAndTheButterfly'': Hiccup and Toothless, after crashing in the Encanto, quickly fall in love with the place and its people, as everything there (the weather, the location, the food, etc) is better than what Berk has to offer. Considering all of the abuse that the two suffered from the Vikings, it's no surprise that they choose to build a new life in the Encanto, with Hiccup dressing in Encanto clothes, living off of Julieta's cooking, and learning to read Spanish.

* ''Fanfic/IfWishesWerePonies'': After a [[NoHoldsBarredBeatdown severe beating from Dudley's gang]], Harry Potter accidentally ends up in Equestria, [[FisherKingdom where he's turned into a unicorn colt]]. Though nervous at first by the new location (and a little shocked over not being human anymore), he quickly adjusts to living in Equestria and has no desire to return to Earth (only going back when the portal's location is discovered because Twilight and the Princesses asked him to).

* ''ComicBook/KaZar'': Lord Kevin Plunder maintains some token ties to his homeland of England for the sake of successfully advocating for his adopted one in the Savage Land but in all other ways has completely abandoned his former life.



* Franchise/{{Superman}} was a baby at the time of his emigration to earth and hardly had a choice in the matter, but still applies, since even after he learns about and accepts his Kryptonian roots, he refuses to define himself as a Kryptonian instead of a human.
* In ''ComicBook/SupermanSmashesTheKlan'', Mr. Lee constantly insists that his family speak English and act obediently to the people in downtown Metropolis after moving there from Chinatown. His insistence on being "normal" and living up to positive stereotypes gets him to try to reason with TheKlan to stop them from burning his house down. His wife admonishes him for this and tells him in Cantonese, "To Hell with your English!"

*Occurs quite a lot in [[Creator/TadaoNagahama Tadao Nagahama's]] works (arguably justified since they're about aliens).
**''Anime/BraveRaideen'': [[spoiler: For a short while, [[WarriorPrincess Princess]] [[ActionMom Lemuria]] of the [[{{Atlantis}} Mu Empire]] took up the name Reiko Hibiki when she married Ichiro Hibiki and gave birth to their son, Akira. She then left them both to find the Star of La Mu in order to defeat Barao, the Demon Emperor, her arch-nemesis of over 12,000 years.]]
**''Anime/VoltesV'': [[spoiler: Prince Gohl was born into the Boazanian Royal Family. Unfortunately, he was born without horns, and the Boazanian FantasticCasteSystem decrees the Hornless are to be slaves while the Horned are meant to be nobles. After launching multiple failed slave rebellions across the planet, Gohl escapes to Earth, a place where he is free from oppression. He falls in love with the woman who discovered him after his spaceship crashed, Mitsuyo Go, and has three children with her - Kenichi, Daijirou and Hiyoshi. He is recalled to Boazania by his cousin, who wants him to manufacture weapons for Boazania, and he even offers him his old position back if he does, but Gohl refuses. As a result, Gohl is imprisoned again, and his sons and wife believe him to be dead. Before he left, Gohl, his wife, Professor Hamaguchi and General Oka designed the titular robot, Voltes V, to defend the Earth in case the Boazanians invade. In the series finale, the Go brothers and Gohl finally reunite when they enter Boazania and host a successful slave rebellion. Much tears are shed.]]
