* ''Literature/TheStrangerTimes'': Stella accuses Hannah of assuming she and Grace are related just because they're both Black. In fact, Hannah had just witnessed a conversation between the two that sounded very much like a sassy teen arguing with her overbearing mother. The writing is also on Hannah's side: Stella's race had not been described up until that point.

* A fantasy variant in ''[[https://hopeaterart.tumblr.com/tagged/tmnt%3Afhc Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: From the Hidden City]]''; all of the turtle characters are related to each other. The titular characters are obvious, and [[CanonForeigner Ke Xin]]/[[LongLostRelative Artemisia]]'s relation to them is foreshadowed by her also being a turtle. Because of this, [[AdaptationSpeciesChange all other turtle characters have had their species changed]]--[[TheRival Slash]] is a tortoise[[note]][[MythologyGag which he was implied to be in the 2012 series]][[/note]], [[TheMole Jennika]] is a frog, [[spoiler:and [[GreaterScopeParagon Venus]] is an [[AngelicAlien Aeon]].]] Notably, Lita remains a turtle, and is RelatedInTheAdaptation.

* A particular egregious example occurs in ''Film/Ghostbusters2016''. The majority of the main actors from the original ''Film/Ghostbusters1984'' make appearances as different characters, from Creator/SigourneyWeaver to Creator/BillMurray. When Creator/ErnieHudson (who was famously kept off of the first film's poster and had to deal with a script downgrade that made his Ghostbuster the only one who wasn't a parapsychology professor) makes his appearance, he's playing the uncle to the character portrayed by Creator/LeslieJones (who ''also'' was the sole non-white Ghostbuster and not a parapsychology professor). None of the returning white actors played characters related to the new generation of white Ghostbusters.

* ''Manga/DeliciousInDungeon'': While Kabru's party is discussing Laios's party, the subject turns to one of their ex-members, Shuro, a samurai from [[{{Wutai}} the East]]. They ask if Rin, the Kabru party's mage, is familiar with him, seeing as she's the same ethnicity, but she replies that the East consists of multiple different cultures and she wasn't even born there anyways (she's a second-generation immigrant to the Island). The name isn't even one she recognizes as native to her culture, although that might just be because "Shuro" is derived from the Laios party mispronouncing "Toshiro", the guy's actual name.
