* In ''{{Naruto}}'', Sakura insults the main character for being an orphan, claiming that his BrattyHalfPint nature is due to him not having parents to discipline him, not realizing that Sasuke, standing right there, was also an orphan.
* VampireKnight has the protagonist telling another character that she understands now about how vampires can be seen as subhuman beasts to be exterminated like vermin, only to find out about half a minute later that he's a vampire himself. She later feels incredibly guilty about this, despite the fact that the other character gave no indication he'd even heard her (he was distracted enough at the time that he might not have), let alone cared or disagreed.
