Adding the proper italics for Death Note.


* DeathNote has [[spoiler: Gelus and Misa, and later Rem and Misa]], though in both cases the attraction is entirely emotional and entirely one-sided. And then Rule 36 of the Death Note averts this trope entirely.

** In the Super S anime Artemis is implied again to feel like this... and mixing it with HotForPreacher: his "target" is a beautiful Catholic nun named Sister Maria. Luna herself teases him a LOT for it, and thinks it's kinda cute. [[spoiler: That's regarded moot soon, though, since Sister Maria becomes the victim of the week due to Tiger Eye kidnapping and [[MindRape mind-raping her]], so the Senshi have to save her. It turns out that Artemis was just daydreaming about how he wanted cats to get married in a church, anyway.]]

* Arguably, this is the entire premise of ''{{Kanokon}}'' (beside extreme {{fanservice}}, with pinches of {{Shotacon}}.)
* The eponymous character of ''InuYasha'' is the product of a youkai (demon) and a human. He later goes on to have a romantic relationship with two human girls. Given the number of half-demons he runs into during the series (and a very enamoured wolf-demon), it seems that humans are a common youkai fetish, and vice-versa.

* Taken pretty seriously with the noted titles of ''{{Kanon}}'' and ''{{Clannad}}'' by KeyVisualArts. Both scenarios are demonstrated in a rather TearJerker route following the BeautifulAllAlong path, except...just replace ''beautiful'' with ''animal''. The original visual novels take this detail a step further.

* In [[AlfredJKwak ''Alfred J. Kwak'']], the titular character's nemesis, Dolf, is the son of a crow - who, judging from his only apparition in the very first episode, was quite narrow-minded - and a blackbird, an inheritance which is ashamed of, to the point of self-loathing; he even paints his orange beak black.
** It's also a somewhat interesting fact that Dolf's character is based on AdolfHitler. Also, why is this example listed under Anime? Alfred J. Kwak is a ''Dutch'' show.

Kinda odd though since he knew at the time that Youko is a kitsune/fox.

* An example that's [[{{Squick}} not as jarring]] because of the WhatMeasureIsANonHuman moments: ''YuYuHakusho'' and its human/demon romances, namely [[spoiler:[[YaoiGuys Sensui and Itsuki]]]] (human and demon/yaminade), [[spoiler:Yusuke's ancestor Raizen]] and a female doctor (demon and human), and also [[spoiler:Kuwabara and Yukina]] in the manga.

Additionally, in the manga she is [[ReallySevenHundredYearsOld Really About Nine Hundred And Two Years Old]] by the time she meets Pegasus.

** There's also an implication of Artemis having a crush on Minako. At one point in the manga he is actually peeping on her while she's in the bathroom (which ends badly for him after [[KidFromTheFuture Diana]] innocently reports the incident to [[{{Tsundere}} Luna]]). In the anime, Artemis gives Minako a bouqet of roses in one episode to cheer her up. Again, in the manga he is an alien with a human form, but this isn't revealed until later on -- in fact, the cats being aliens from Mau was pretty much a DoingInTheWizard moment as they were never hinted to be anything more than magical cats (in the ''Sailor V'' manga Artemis is mostly treated as a housecat who ''just happens'' to be able to talk).

Several Pokémon, Such as Meowth himself, Ash's Chikorita and Aipom and Harley's Cacturne have shown interest towards a human, but a human having interest for a Pokémon has yet to come.
