* ''Anime/TweenyWitches'': The Witches make use of ClockPunk or {{Steampunk}} mechanisms at best which is supplemented with {{Magitek}} items otherwise they're mostly Medieval times. Meanwhile the Warlocks, barring a few old-schoolers, ditch their magic and focus on tech advancement. They're so successful that in less than 300 years they've advanced from the Witches' Medieval tech to being on par with stuff out of Franchise/StarWars or Franchise/StarTrek. At the end of the series, the two factions join again as one people undoubtedly unifying their tech.

** In the final chapter of the manga, Naruto [[spoiler:(as Hokage)]] is shown to have a ''laptop'' on his desk. It's a [[UsefulNotes/AppleMacintosh Mac]].

Removing this because it is covered by Kinetic Weapons Are Just Better.


* Among all the advanced weapons featured in ''Anime/{{Macross}}'' we have caseless guns. And they aren't used only by humans, even the Zentraedi (who were created as SlaveMooks by the incredibly advanced [[{{Precursors}} Protoculture]]) have them.

Commenting this out because it's badly written.


* ''Literature/KinosJourney'': In the "Land of Wizards" episode, it is pointed out that no one has ever successfully built an airplane. Never mind that various countries have artificial intelligence, humanoid robots, fully automated economies, incredibly advanced neurological science, and, of course, hovercrafts. No airplanes, just hovercrafts. In the novel, said hovercraft are even shown to do things we use airplanes for -- namely, bombing. Mind, almost all the cities/areas are incredibly isolated by all appearances, so it's entirely plausible that the people in that particular portion of the land never ''had'' seen a working airplane.

* ''Anime/LostUniverse'' and ''Manga/OutlawStar'' both appear to inhabit the opposite end of the schizo tech scale -- futuristic worlds with anachronistic magic. That's actually Space Opera, the same thing as Star Wars. Outlaw Star has a few other weird things, like the fact that on-planet personal communication is conducted with old-fashioned rotary telephones or the ''Outlaw Star's'' cockpit displays consist of a few analog gauges.

* ''Manga/FutokuNoGuild'': Playing on RuleOfFunny, while mostly a typical fantasy setting, there are computers, phones, televisions, vacuum cleaners and video games without anyone bringing any particular attention to it. It's like society decided to return to fantastical adventures while also keeping the technology level up.



* The popular anime and manga ''Manga/InuYasha'' has a completely feudal Japan fantasy setting ... until a group of bandits suddenly come into the picture, one of whom appears to be half-''tank''.

** A bit further into the story we meet Bartholomew Kuma. Like Franky, he's a cyborg, but of a much higher quality. He's called a Pacifista. Not long after that, more cyborgs show up in the form of what are essentially [[CloningBlues clones of Kuma]], but with lasers.
