* Pretty much ANYBODY in ''WesternAnimation/{{Cars}}'' doesn't show a single sign of aging. Forty years in between the time of Radiator Springs' heyday and the time it vanished from the map, not one of the residents ever seem to age, although Mater was originally baby blue before he became rusted, but is still the same. Lightning [=McQueen=] himself also shows no signs of aging across the whole franchise, not even by ''3'' when he is teased of being old despite looking the same as he did when he was a rookie. Even Doc Hudson looks the same as he did back when he used to race for the Piston Cup in the '50s.

* In ''Franchise/DragonBall'', some human characters do not age much past adulthood throughout the series, despite having a difference of 23 years between the start and the end of second series. This is justified with the [[HumanAliens Saiyans]] who apparently age slower than humans. However, it's unexplained how in the Buu Saga of ''Anime/DragonBallZ'' Yamcha, Tenshinhan, and especially Chaozu look practically identical to when they were first introduced, and how Bulma's mother looks as young in ''Anime/DragonBallSuper'' as she did in her debut in ''Manga/DragonBall'' even though she's at least 70.

* In ''Franchise/DragonBall'', some ''Franchise/DragonBall'' has both averted this trope and played it straight:
** The aging of characters between the Daimao and 23rd Tournament Arcs was a big deal at the time: Toriyama had to fight hard to age up main character Goku alongside Krillin, as part of the appeal was that they were kids. Outside of this, human charactersdo not age much past adulthood throughout like Krillin, Chi-chi and Bulma visibly get older over time, with Bulma in particular managing to dress well no matter her age. The final 10 year timeskip at the series, end of the manga aged up practically every character.
** On the flipside, many characters like Yamcha, Tenshinhan, Chiaotzu, Puar, Bulma's mother and Piccolo don't visibly change at all, despite having a difference of23 40 years between the start and the end of second the series. This is justified with the [[HumanAliens Saiyans]] Saiyans]], who apparently age slower do grow old but stay in their fighting prime for far longer than humans. However, it's unexplained how humans do.
** Special mention goes to Trunks and Goten in ''Anime/DragonBallSuper'': they appeared as kids when introduced in theBuu Saga of ''Anime/DragonBallZ'' Yamcha, Tenshinhan, and especially Chaozu Boo Arc, but in ''Super'' they look practically identical to when exactly the same despite it taking place between 4-9 years after Boo (the latter of which would be only one year before "End of Z", where they were first introduced, and how Bulma's mother looks as young in ''Anime/DragonBallSuper'' as she did in her debut in ''Manga/DragonBall'' even though she's at least 70.look like teenagers).

* The main storyline of ''VideoGame/AssassinsCreedII'' spans over two decades, yet neither Ezio nor any of his friends or family visibly age in that time. This is most noticeable in the cases of Ezio and Claudia, who start out as 17 and 15 respectively (though they could easily pass as young adults): Apart from Ezio growing a beard, they still look ''exactly the same'' at the end of the game, when they should be pushing 40. The lack of aging is less striking but still noticeable for the older characters, such as Ezio's parents, who don't look any different between newborn Ezio and 17-year-old Ezio; and his mother doesn't look any different at the end of the game, either, which means that on the whole she doesn't age at all in the course of about 40 years.
