* In ''VideoGame/SonicUnleashed'', the main menu is a shot of Earth. Prior to starting the game, the planet is intact, but returning to the screen after the intro instead shows the planet shattered. As the player progresses through the game & restores the Earth, the state of the planet is reflected on the main menu.

** ''ComicBook/ZeroHour'' started doing this halfway through with its covers, where the heroes stared aghast at a BlankWhiteVoid slowly consuming the image, until by issue #0 (they were numbered like a countdown, so that was the final issue, barring tie-ins), the cover was entirely blank, with even the title being in black and white.

** The covers of ''ComicBook/BatmanCataclysm'' features a section of a Gotham City street that starts intact, but starts to fall apart as part of the in-universe earthquake until it's a somking heap of rubble.

* In ''VisualNovel/Danganronpa2GoodbyeDespair'', every time someone dies, their clip in the opening sequence and their picture in the cut-ins just before the class trial are shaded red. Also, when [[spoiler:Nekomaru Nidai]] receives life-threatening injuries that prevent [[spoiler:him]] from participating in the class trial, [[spoiler:his]] picture is shaded a darker hue than the rest.

* For an extremely rare case of a console's BIOS pulling this trope, look no further than the UsefulNotes/PlayStation2's booting screen. Turning on the system with a completely empty memory card would show you nothing more than "Sony Computer Entertainment" in a dark blue void. Subsequently, the memory card will log each separate game you play on the system in a save file called "Your System Configuration", which has the effect of adding one white block per game on the startup screen. Furthermore, the more you play a specific game, the more its designated block will grow in height. And as you might have guessed by now, deleting the "Your System Configuration" file will devolve the screen back to an empty void.

* The opening sequence to ''WebAnimation/BattleForBFDI'' was changed twice throughout its run: when the split occurred the characters that moved to TPOT were removed from the opening, and near the end when the Announcer returns and Four leaves the show out of spite the Announcer takes Four's place in the opening.

* Comic Books
** EvolvingCredits/MarvelComics

* ''[[LetsPlay/TacoMan Taco-Man Plays a Video Game]]'' has the end credits play against an ever-lengthening compilation of one clip from each previous episode.

*** ''Film/CaptainMarvel'' has all its clips replaced by those featuring Creator/StanLee, who died before the movie's release. The sequence then fades to black before the words "THANK YOU STAN" appear.

* After you reach a certain point in ''VideoGame/BravelyDefault'', the subtitle "[[AC:Where The Fairy Flies]]" is blacked out to read [[spoiler:[[AC:Airy Lies]]]].
** After you reach a certain point in its sequel ''VideoGame/BravelySecond'', the subtitle "[[AC:End Layer]]" is changed to read [[spoiler:[[AC:Send Player]]]].

*** The most complicated intros were made when Ross played VideoGame/SuperMarioKart with LetsPlay/{{Markiplier}}, since Arin (who animates the intros) accidentally spelt Mark's wrong, but decided to turn it into a running gag, giving us Markipiler, Markiplire, Mairkpleirr, Parkilimer, Mdaosfjjh$(fv, and finally Markiplier.
