[[folder:Web Comics]]

* [[TheFairFolk The Weird Sisters]] on ''WesternAnimation/{{Gargoyles}},'' who are also identical except for their hair color (blonde, white and black).

* ''WesternAnimation/ThePowerpuffGirls'' were genetically engineered to be triplet girls. Unlike most examples, they are not identical.

* October, November and December from ''Anime/CoyoteRagtimeShow''.
* The Hanamura Triplets from ''Manga/SallyTheWitch''.
* Ichigo, Ringo and Sango from ''Manga/HanaukyoMaidTeam''. These three maids appear to be identical in all ways.
* A set of same-sex triplets (Taichi, Tatsuji, and Yuzo Tomizawa) become murder suspects in ''Manga/CaseClosed'', and it's up to Conan to figure out which of the three [[{{Patricide}} killed their father]]. [[spoiler:It was Taichi.]] In a subversion, however, The three men have pretty different looks (Taichi has a PornStache, Tatsuji slicks his hair back, Yuzo looks quite younger than the other two), and the only ''actual'' shared physical trait they have are their eyes, their brows and their noses. Which ''coincidentally'' are the only part of the culprit's face that the witnesses could see. Therefore in practice they don't look '''that''' alike, but there's still no easy way to see which triplet was to blame.
* Averted in ''Manga/GingaNagareboshiGin'', where the three Kai brothers (Akatora, Chutora, and Kurotora) are in the same litter but with different fur colors. However, this is nothing unusual because they are dogs.
* The triplets [[BewaretheQuietOnes Thompson, Timber, and Canturbury]] from the anime version of ''Anime/BlackButler''.
* In ''Manga/ACentaursLife'', ClassRepresentative [[OurAngelsAreDifferent Manami Mitami]] has four younger sisters, three of them being CatGirl triplets. They are called Chigusa, Chinami and Chiho. Collectively, they are called "[[SingleMindedTwins Chi-chan]]".

* ''Manga/OnePiece:'' The Charlotte family includes a lot of identical/fraternal siblings, with varying numbers (one set of decuplets, one set of quintuplets, two sets of quadruplets and six sets of triplets). While six of these sets are all one gender each, only the quintuplets - Opera, Counter, Cadenza, Cabaletta and Gala - bear a close enough resemblance to one another to have a hard time telling them apart. The main difference is the number of hair tufts on their dotted heads, plus Opera's creamy appearance (the result of his Devil Fruit) and Counter's mustache. The male decuplets are also virtually identical (except for one being much bigger), and the same goes for the five female decuplets.
* The Eco Triplets from ''Anime/{{Tamagotchi}}'' are all female.

* A trio of identical blonde sisters known as "the Bimbettes" appear in ''WesternAnimation/BeautyAndTheBeast''. WordOfGod says that their names are [[RhymeThemeNaming Claudette (in the red dress), Laurette (in the orange dress) and Paulette (in the green dress)]].
* Averted in the ''Franchise/{{Shrek}}'' series; Shrek and Fiona's triplets consist of two boys (named Farkle and Fergus) and a girl (named Felicia). None of them are identical either, which is far more realistic as identical triplets are rare.
* In the ''Creator/{{Pixar}}'' film ''WesternAnimation/{{Brave}}'', the main protagonist has three younger brothers who're identical triplets named Harris, Hubert and Hamish--[[WordOfGod according to the creators,]] Merida's the only who can tell the triplets apart with no problem.

* Lisa, Jessie and Megan Wyatt from ''The Parent Trap III'', one of the sequels to ''Film/{{The Parent Trap|1961}}''. Interestingly, while the twins were played by the same actress (Creator/HayleyMills), the triplets were played by real-life triplets Leanna, Monica and Joy Creel.

* ''Literature/{{Paperquake}}''. PlayedWith as only two of the three sisters look identical, with the third sister Violet often feeling left out of the triplet bond.
* The three Ravers in ''Literature/TheChroniclesOfThomasCovenant'', who were "three brothers of one birth". Of course, by the time the books take place they've transformed into bodiless, possessing demon spirits and as such don't really have a sex ''per se'' at all, they're still referred to with male pronouns when any gender is applied.
* The Princesses of Ruwenda in ''Literature/BlackTrillium'', who are not only all fraternal but [[PowerTrio play into]] [[BlondeBrunetteRedhead multiple]] [[BeautyBrainsAndBrawn triplicate]] [[FreudianTrio tropes]]. (Then again, the entire book—as one might have guessed from a title referencing a [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trillium flower]] with trilateral symmetry—runs on the RuleOfThree.)
* Zigzagged in one book of the ''[[Literature/SweetValleyHigh Sweet Valley Twins]]'' series. Jessica and Elizabeth convince a new acquaintance they don't like that they're actually triplets; they take turns playing the third sister, Jennifer.
* In ''Literature/ChaletSchool'', Joey's triplets Len, Conny, Margot. They are not identical, and have very different personalities.

* The Ran triplets from ''Literature/TheStoryOfSaiunkoku'', all of whom are named Setsuna.

* Averted in Aussie soap opera ''Series/{{Neighbours}}'', where magnate Paul Robinson's triplets were one daughter and two identical sons ([[EvilTwin one of whom was evil]]).

[[EvilTwin He gets released, forcibly re-merges with the others, and takes control of the unified persona.]]
* On the first episode of ''Series/MorkAndMindy'', while Mork is in the 50s visiting The Fonz and wants to experience human dating, Fonzie tries to think of whom he could get. Fonzie mentions "the Hooper triplets" commenting, "Now there's a six-pack to go."

* [[spoiler:Robin and Leslie]] have these near the end of ''Webcomic/{{Shortpacked}}'', named Abigail, Tabitha and Gabriella (Abby, Tabby and Gabby respectively).
* ''Webcomic/MenageA3'': The Archer Triplets, one of (or rather, three of) [[TheCasanova Zii]]'s past conquests, as seen in one-panel brief flashback, were all male — and apparently were said to be identical, although Zii cast a doubt on that on the basis of their sexual performances.

* ''WesternAnimation/AlvinAndTheChipmunks'':
** The titular trio of brothers. Although some sources give them different ages, they're actually triplets. In early promotional art they were identical, but were given individualized designs for their first cartoon. One episode of the cartoon cements the triplet status by having them search for their birth mother - among other things, they want to know when their birthday is.
