* In the ''VideoGame/PokemonMysteryDungeonRescueTeam'' remake, when you wake up and are introduced to your partner, similar to the anime special for the Rescue Team games, you are not shown the Pokémon you are yet; instead, your partner’s introduction is shown from a first person perspective of your partner speaking to you. When your partner mentions that you look like the species of the Pokémon you chose to turn into, between that line, you are at long last shown the species you’ve turned into.

Det Baley grew up in an underground MegaCity and the washed-out view from his perspective shows us how windows open to the sun hurt him until he can adjust to the bright space.

* The ''Series/KamenRiderKiva'' Adventure Battle DVD, ''Kimi mo Kiva ni Narō'' (You Can Also Be Kiva), is an interactive DVD mostly shot from the perspective of an unseen character (implied to be the viewer themselves), whom the characters train to become the next Kiva. We never see what they look like, since the only time we ever see them on screen is when they've already transformed into Kiva, though judging by their voice and height (seen as a silhouette just before they transform), they're a young boy.

* An early example is the 1947 film noir ''Lady in the Lake'', directed by and starring Creator/RobertMontgomery, which was filmed almost entirely in POV Cam to imitate [[Literature/TheLadyInTheLake the original novel]]'s first-person narration (this is hence a rare non-video game example of UnbrokenFirstPersonPerspective). Just so the film's Big Name Star was not totally unseen, he appears in bridging sequences and is seen whenever Marlowe looks into a mirror.

* A rare literary example is Creator/HPLovecraft's short story "The Outsider", which follows reason #5 to a T, and disguises the narrator's identity from the audience right up to the last sentence.
