History Main / HeadbuttThermometer

* ''Manga/MahouSenseiNegima'': Negi does this to Asuna while she is under the affects of a LovePotion.

* Haruka performs one of these to Yuuto in ''NogizakaHarukaNoHimitsu Purezza''. She does this in a skimpy Santa outfit, on the advice of a medical "guidebook" written by her younger sister, who's been working to get the lovebirds together the whole time. Haruka's not very aware of how shocking this is, but Yuuto is.

* ''NagasareteAirantou'': After a day of Machi actually acting like a normal girl (i.e. not pushing herself on Ikuto at every opportunity), Ikuto tells her to hold still and brings his face close. Machi goes into a LuminescentBlush in anticipation of a kiss, but Ikuto's only intention was checking her temperature because of her odd (for her) behavior.

* Masaya to Ichigo in ''TokyoMewMew''.

* Happens in the ''SoulEater'' doujinshi, ''Strawberry and Mint''. It's done to hint at the romantic tension between Soul & Maka.

* Shion to Nezumi in {{No 6}}. Of course if the preview [[HoYay already has people wondering...]]

* ''DaCapo'': Junichi does this to his IllGirl sister Nemu fairly frequently to check her temperature, and it really ''is'' a headbutt, as Nemu will infallibly complain.
* ''MahouSenseiNegima'': Negi does this to Asuna while she is under the affects of a LovePotion.

* ''{{Naruto}}'': The Mizukage and her teenage bodyguard, Chojuro.

* Happens in ''HimeChanNoRibon'', when Himeko is caught hiding in her crush's room while disguised as said crush's little sister.

* Samatarou does this to Tenko in ''KamisamaKazoku'', not knowing about her crush on him.

* ''Anime/RevolutionaryGirlUtena'': Touga does this to Nanami after [[spoiler:she discovers the (fake) truth that they aren't actually blood related]] and starts acting strangely and staying in bed. It makes Nanami very flustered and she protests that she's not a kid anymore. However, unlike most examples, Touga certainly knew exactly what he was doing, and was deliberately trying to incite her feelings.

* In ''[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/7585262/1/NARUTO_VEANGANCE_REVELAITONS_3rd_Repost Naruto Veangance Revelaitons]]'', an especially bizarre use of this trope comes up, as Ronan uses this technique on Sakura '''as a pregnancy test'''.

* The above trope picture is from the manga adaptation of {{Disgaea 2}}, as Adell applies this to Friday, the Dimensional Gatekeeper who harbors a massive crush on him. Adell, of course, is highly oblivious to this.

[[AC:{{Anime}} and {{Manga}}]]
* Misaka does this to Uiharu in the first chapter of ''[[Manga/ToAruKagakuNoRailgun A Certain Scientific Railgun]]''. This has the FunnyBackgroundEvent of infuriating Kuroko, who's in love with her.

* [[Manga/HayateTheCombatButler Maria]] did this on one occasion to Hayate while he was sick. This is memorable because it is one of the few instances that [[ChasteHero Hayate]] takes notice of any sort of intimacy and [[LuminescentBlush blushes profusely]]. Maria however, stays completly oblivious to this.

* In ''Manga/StrawberryMarshmallow'', Nobue at one point does this to Miu, with rather icky result when Miu sneezes all over her.

* Mao uses this to check Yuriko's temperature in the ''Anime/{{Mao-chan}}'' manga. She is unaware of [[FoeYay Yuriko's heart going all]] [[WrittenSoundEffect doki-doki]].

* Shion to Nezumi in {{No6}}. Of course if the preview [[HoYay already has people wondering...]]

* In DailyLifeWithMonsterGirl Suu does this to Kurusu when he has a cold and the other girls can't enter his room without risking a lethal infection. It's played for laughs because not only does Suu not have the same body temperature as a human (being a semi-humanoid slime) in the first place, she's apparently unable to tell what temperature he is (or possibly even know what a temperature is, Suu's intelligence is suspect) anyway and simply repeats 42 degrees because she heard Centorea say that was ''her'' body temperature.

* [[Manga/HayateTheCombatButler Maria]] did this on one occasion to Hayate (along with removing his shirt) while he was sick. This is memorable because it is one of the few instances that [[ChasteHero Hayate]] takes notice of any sort of intimacy and [[LuminescentBlush blushes profusely]]. Maria however, stays completly oblivious to this.

* ''Series/{{The X-Files}}'', episode "Anasazi": Scully slightly touches Mulder's forehead and cheeks to check his temperature. Unfortunately, he's too sick to be turned on or to want to tease her. None of his 'come-on, Scully' lines followed.
