* ''Literature/InfinityBeach''. A FirstContactTeam has to think up questions to exchange when making FirstContact with an alien race. Someone suggests asking about hobbies because that would tell a lot about a civilization, however it's pointed out that if the aliens discovered that humanity wasted most of its time playing virtual reality roleplaying games, it might cause an AlienInvasion!

Added DiffLines:
* ''Manga/KOn'': Aside from the obvious interest in music and song-writing shared by the club, the anime decided to make Mio a sports-fan for a throwaway line in addition to her reading hobby.
* ''Webcomic/SleeplessDomain'': Anemone has a number of artistic hobbies, including painting, drawing, dollmaking, and cosplay. She mentions that she "[has] a lot of time on her hands", and whatever role she's playing in keeping the city safe, it's certainly a lonely one. Shortly after her role of [[spoiler: BarrierMaiden]] is revealed, it's subsequently revealed that she also [[spoiler: designs the barriers. And gets quite grumpy when people criticize her work.]]
* ''Anime/TigerAndBunny'': Barnaby's one and only hobby is listening to opera, which is often associated with an affluent family background, 'snobbish' personality and being 'intellectual'. This ultimately serves as a sort of deconstruction, as opera music is also a direct trigger for his PTSD, so much so that even ''directly talking about liking opera as a hobby'' has him becoming distracted with flashbacks to the night his parents were shot. [[spoiler:It's entirely possible that his interests being narrowed down to exclusively something that will remind him of his trauma is yet another facet of Maverick's manipulation.]] While it outwardly contributes to his public facade, it also betrays how hollow his life is outside of things that drive his single-minded pursuit of revenge.
** In season 2, Barnaby is shown to have filled his once-empty apartment with plants that he dotes on and even talks to. It's an entirely new hobby, befitting his more patient and nurturing aspirations following his character development, while still being something he can enjoy in solitude.
