** Implies DeadSparks with Duncan and Gwen relationship. Although their relationship did not deteriorate like it did with Duncan's relationship with Courtney, they're shown to lack chemistry and affection at the start of All-Stars. With them being moved to different teams, Gwen's attempts to make up with Courtney combined with Duncan's attempts to get Courtney's attention eventually causes Gwen to break up with Duncan. It's telling that Duncan's more confused than heartbroken regarding the break-up.

* ''Manga/MariaNoDanzai'' implies NotHimself. Nozomu Okaya still acts like the same remorseless sociopath two years after Kiritaka's death, but during Kowase's breakdown as he tries to drown Yajima, he has Okaya in mind when demanding her to go back how she was. It may hint that although Okaya's demeanor may look the same, Kowase notices that his boss has changed in some way he doesn't seem to favor.

** Implies InferioritySuperiorityComplex. While he acts smug, when [[Characters/TheDragonPrinceViren Viren]] is having difficulty figuring out the secrets of his magic mirror, the way the scene is framed makes it look like he's talking about himself. Bonus points for his use of a Truth-revealing serum on his eyes in the operation: the truth which it reveals might not have been about the mirror at any moment.

* ''Manga/IsItMyFaultThatIGotBullied'' implies HiddenDisdainReveal. Shinji Suzuki is a successful banker and is popular with his boss and coworkers because he is ruthless and handles cases where a normal banker would be sympathetic towards the client. The end of the story is the final chapters, where when Shinji's mistress and former victim revealed him to be a cheater and a bully to his boss and coworkers, they were all horrified and disgusted. Shinji Boss denied him the promotion he wanted and demoted him. His coworkers started to ignore him, refuse to talk to him, and be threatened by him. But some of the coworker's words, like one of them saying that they don’t have to suck up to him anymore and stating he didn’t get his former job on merit, hinted that his coworkers had a disliking for him before to revealed. It’s heavily implied that even though his coworkers and boss previously admired Shinji for how much money he was making the bank and his ruthless personality, they also slightly disliked him for some of his cruelty and how bossy he could be towards his coworkers. When his boss and coworkers saw firsthand what a monster he was and lost respect for him, that dislike for him rose to the surface and became hatred because of how much of a monster he was.

* ''Series/MakoMermaidsAnH2OAdventure'' implies BizarreAlienReproduction is the case for mermaids. They refer to children as "hatchlings", implying they lay eggs, but the truly bizarre part comes when one realizes they have zero contact with any males. The Mako pod hadn't seen a merman in centuries before the show began, and it's mentioned that contact with humans (the MermaidProblem is nonexistent, as any mermaid can enchant herself to have legs when she's dry) is forbidden-- the one mermaid who got herself a human boyfriend was banished from the pod. Whether they engage in [[TrulySingleParent asexual]] or HomosexualReproduction is unknown, but magic is definitely involved.

* ''Art/AphroditeOfMenophantos'': Part of the reason why Aphrodite is rushing to cover herself up is that she a human has stumbled upon her while she was taking a bath. Mortals suffer nasty {{Karmic Misfire}}s for seeing a naked goddess, even if it's by accident, so she's trying to prevent that.

* ''WesternAnimation/TheOwlHouse''
** Implies AllOfTheOtherReindeer. The first episode establishes that [[Characters/TheOwlHouseLuzNoceda Luz Noceda]] is a weird girl that unintentionally causes trouble in her school with her wild imagination, weird behavior, and antics disturbing her classmates. Luz's mother points out that her behavior is why she does not have any friends. It was unknown how Luz's classmates treated her at first, but in season 2, two episodes implied that Luz was ostracized by her classmates and was bullied severely.
*** "[[Recap/TheOwlHouseS2E8KnockKnockKnockinOnHootysDoor Knock, Knock, Knockin' on Hooty's Door]]" implied that Luz was made fun of in the past for being cheesy; that episode also heavily implied that she had other crushes but was rejected.
*** In "[[Recap/TheOwlHouseS2E10YesterdaysLie Yesterday's Lie]]", when Luz discovers that [[spoiler:Vee was impersonating her, and she's shocked to discover Vee had her own group of friends she made in camp. It is heavily implied that Luz suffers from a social anxiety disorder because of all the bullying she suffered from her peers. Luz gives Vee advice on approaching a group of teenagers she assumes to be bullies and almost has a panic attack when Vee goes over to them (not knowing that they are Vee's friends). It also indicated that outside of her mother, she does not miss her old life on Earth and would be more than willing just to let Vee continue to live it in her place indefinitely.]]
** Implies HighSchoolSweethearts. While it's not stated if Alador & Odalia Blight were already dating, Lilith's flashback to [[spoiler:her duel with Eda]] shows that they at the very least knew each other during their time at Hexside.
** Implies SoProudOfYou. When Amity goes into battle against the Abomi-Ton 2.0, Alador Blight looks very concerned for his daughter but shifts to an intrigued and delighted smile when she and Luz prove capable of handling it.
** Implies StartOfDarkness. [[spoiler:What's been seen of his backstory indicates that [[Characters/TheOwlHouseEmperorBelos Philip Wittebane]] was deeply influenced by the [[DeliberateValuesDissonance normal views of his time period]] into seeing witches as beings to be feared and hated, leading to him being [[FantasticRacism naturally antagonistic]] towards the denizens of the Boiling Isles. A closer look into his memory portraits reveal he used to have an older brother named Caleb whom he was very close to until the day a witch entered into Caleb's life. The episode "Thanks to Them" reveals that Caleb had went with the witch to the Demon Realm and fell in love, while Philip had went on after his brother to find and retrieved him. Finding out that they eloped angered Philip due to his anti-witch beliefs and the two brothers fought which led to Caleb's death. This incident is implied to be the driving force for Belos' genocidial plans and the Grimwalkers, as he's still haunted by that memory in spite of his sociopathic attitude in present day.]]
