Anime and Manga
- Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid: Quetzalcoatl was demoted for Brother–Sister Incest (in the anime, it was because of a cursed bottle of wine instead) and was accidentally summoned by Shouta while he was trying to summon a demon. Now she goes by Lucoa and lives a life among humans as a Shameless Fanservice Girl who hits on the little boy who summoned her. Yeah.
- Yu-Gi-Oh! 5Ds:
- Quetzalcoatl is theorized to have been the Crimson Dragon and is believed to protect the Earth from the Earthbound Immortals. Artistic License/Mayincatec is in play since the Earthbound Immortals, AKA the Nazca Lines, are in Peru, which the Aztecs had no reach in since they were based in parts of Mexico.
- In the same episode Quetzalcoatl is brought up, Jack duels Max, whose deck is based on Aztec and other Mesoamerican mythologies. For example, one of his Trap Cards is "Smoke Mirror".
Video Games
- Fate/Grand Order: Quetzalcoatl is an obtainable Servant, summoned as a Divided Servant, in other words, a female body they may have possessed in the past. She's fascinated with lucha libre, has the personality of a Cool Big Sis, uses Xiuhcoatl as her Noble Phantasm, and can summon the prehistoric creature Quetzalcoatlus as another Noble Phantasm (though it's not usable in the game). And in Lostbelt 7 Tezcatlipoca and Tlaloc fused with Huitzilipochtli appears as an antagonist the former like Quetzalcoatl before him became fascinated with what modern humanity has made, namely guns.Though he is pretty terrible at it, the latter is actually Tenochtitlan, the city given form.
