** Despite Tak's assertion of superiority over Zim, she and Zim both shirked the mundane task assigned to them; Zim rejected indentured employment on Foodcourtia, while Tak sidesteps temporary janitorial duties on Planet Dirt, both believing these roles hinder their paths to quicker glory. Intriguingly, the circumstances of their respective exiles can be traced back to Zim's actions: Zim's expulsion resulted from his own folly—destroying the invasion fleet in Operation Impending Doom I while Tak's exile is indirectly linked to Zim preventing her from reaching her final exam on time, leading to her forced exile.

As Mariner is considered a loose cannon by the senior officers of the ''Cerritos'', T'Lynn is considered a loose cannon by Vulcan standards, being more driven by her emotions and by curiosity than Vulcan society thinks is appropriate.

* ''WesternAnimation/TheOwlHouse'': [[Characters/TheOwlHouseTheCollector The Collector]] to [[Characters/TheOwlHouseLuzNoceda Luz Noceda]]. Specifically, The Collector is Luz prior to her CharacterDevelopment, taken to the logical extreme. Prior to the Boiling Isles, Luz was an impulsive child who felt distanced and lonely from her peers and just wanted to have fun and share her interests, but frequently ended up causing harm in the process. Likewise, the Collector is an impulsive childlike being who's lonely and wants to have fun and play games with people but causes immense harm in the process. The major differences is in their level of power and how they deal with their outcomes: at her worst, Luz released snakes into a school, but she [[CharacterDevelopment became more aware and mindful of her actions over time]] and is willing to [[MustMakeAmends do right by others and fix her mistakes]]; the Collector, by contrast, rewrites reality at their whim, [[LackOfEmpathy shows no remorse]] regarding the pain and harm they're causing, and [[BlueAndOrangeMorality actually thinks that others getting hurt or even killed is part of the fun]]. These similarities even extend to their appearances[[note]]of note, the similarities caused the fandom to suspect the Collector would [[DemonicPossession bodyjack Luz]] much like [[WesternAnimation/{{Amphibia}} the Core did to Marcy Wu]][[/note]]. In their physical form, the Collector has the same round face and short hair as Luz, the only difference being a slightly pointier nose and angular eyes. From what is shown, the Collector can be interpreted as [[ShadowArchetype who Luz could've been]] if she [[WrongGenreSavvy stayed in her fantasies]], [[IJustWantToHaveFriends never made friends to reel her in]], and never overall matured, [[ImmortalImmaturity which, despite being around for millennia, the Collector never did]].

** Ziard ends up being a contrast to Viren. Both of them are practitioners of dark magic, sacrificing magical creatures for magic. Ziard attempts to talk things out with the former Dragon King Sol Regem back when he ruled, whereas Viren always prefers pragmatism and killing to solve his problems. Viren is fueled by racism and paranoia towards elves and dragons, while Ziard has nothing but respect for the ones who helped him, and wishes for humanity to be seen as equals instead of mistreated as inferiors. Viren sees nothing wrong with throwing away innocent lives for his cause, while Ziard does what he can to help people rather than throw them away. Viren lets his ego getting bruised by his king to lead him to ignore the only time he has ever considered self-sacrifice because of his actions(rather than a spur of the moment act), while Ziard sacrifices himself instantly to save countless innocents from Sol Regem the moment he realized Sol Regem was that cruel and petty.

However, they're both shaped by losing their beloved mothers at a young age, are impulsive and driven by their emotions, have ChronicHeroSyndrome when it comes to protecting the vulnerable and it's revealed Zuko's outward aggression hides a kind-hearted nature, while the normally caring Katara has a violent and ruthless side. [[spoiler: They ultimately become the DesignatedParents of the Gaang and end the series fighting the FinalBattle side by side.]]
** Zuko and Azula also have shades of this as well. Both desire love from their parents, both are amazing firebenders through different means (Zuko through his travels and lessons from Iroh, Azula's natural talent and additional hard work to get her form correct), both are hilariously socially inept with almost no social skills (remove the "almost" from Azula), and they have a love for their nation.
* ''WesternAnimation/{{Castlevania}}'': In the first season finale, the corrupt bishop of Gresit, who brought on the demon invasion by burning Dracula's wife at the stake, is confronted and killed by a demon with six eyes and fangs that glow blue. The bishop's own eyes reflect the blue light, making it appear that they also glow blue, subtly implying that he has much in common with the demons.
* Throughout most of the early points of ''WesternAnimation/TheDreamstone'' the lucid sugary sweet Noops were like night and day compared to the cynical goofy Urpneys, who feared the former as much as they righteously abhorred the latter. Throughout later episodes however, occasional lampshades were made at the fact that Rufus and Amberley were as much errand runners for the heroes as Frizz and Nug were for the villains. They even started to display a similar snarky disposition about what they are put through at times.
* On ''WesternAnimation/GoofTroop'', Pete and Max ''loathe'' each other most of the time, but they have more in common with each other than with anyone else on the show: they're both ambitious leaders who are self-centered and prone to using other people as means to an end, and they're both far better at coming up with ideas than thinking them through. They'd never admit it though, except in "O, R-V, I N-V U" where their similarities lead them to build such a strong bond that a WhyAreYouNotMySon situation arises with Pete's diametrically-opposed son as the reject.
* ''WesternAnimation/InvaderZim'':
** Zim and Dib share a lot in common. Both of them are looked on as incompetent or crazy by regular members of their respective races due to past incidents, as well as being mocked by their own race for a perceived physical quirk (being small in Zim's case, having a big head for Dib). Both of them are obsessed with proving their worth and success to their peers. Most importantly, both of them are capable of being legitimately dangerous and downright ruthless in spite of their quirks.
** Gaz's obsession with games is not all that different from Dib's obsession with the paranormal.

* ''WesternAnimation/JackieChanAdventures'': [[TerribleTrio Finn]], [[IneffectualSympatheticVillain Ratso]] and [[LaughablyEvil Chow]] have a lot of similarities with the title hero. As Jackie laments that he's been dragged to the front lines in the battle against separate Dark Forces, the Enforcers grow sick of being [[MookCarryover continuously force-conscripted as henchmen]] of said Dark Forces. Jackie is often yelled at, ordered around and slapped by [[AbusiveParent his uncle]], while the {{Arc Villain}}s are all {{Bad Boss}}es to the Enforcers. In a similar way to how [[IJustWantToBeNormal Jackie would love nothing more than get back his old non-magical life of archaeology]], the Enforcers eventually want to quit the entire magic business and go after what they really want: mundane riches. Plus, all four are the biggest {{Butt Monkey}}s of the series with some ManChild traits and a knack for surviving near-death experiences.
* In ''WesternAnimation/MoralOrel'', unhappily-married Clay and Bloberta both had a loving relationship with one of their parents, but the other was much colder with them (mother and father, respectively for Clay; the opposite for Bloberta). We also find out during the former flashback that Clay was a lot like Orel when he was a kid and young man, and both were victims of abuse.

We also find out during the former flashback that Clay was a lot like Orel when he was a kid and young man, and both were victims of abuse.
* ''WesternAnimation/SheRaAndThePrincessesOfPower'':
** Glimmer and Catra are shown to have very similar traits: they're both reckless, break the rules a lot, closely mirror a parent or parent figure (Micah for Glimmer, Shadow Weaver for Catra), hunger for the recognition of a similar figure (Angella for Glimmer, and Shadow Weaver again for Catra), and find themselves taking command roles, at which they prove gifted, as the series goes on (with Glimmer becoming a battlefield commander [[spoiler:and then taking the throne when Angella is trapped in a parallel dimension]], and Catra going from Force Captain, to second-in-command, [[spoiler:to seizing control from Hordak]]). It's no wonder that Adora started to get on with Glimmer fairly quickly.
** In a rare case of the parallels being drawn between two characters who are both antagonistic, Catra is frequently shown to parallel her AbusiveParent Shadow Weaver, right down to getting similar dialogue about how they feel like they're not respected no matter what they do. The similarities are even expressed visually in the third season, with Catra's [[spoiler:Void corruption]] giving her a temporary jagged line down her face, much like Shadow Weaver's mask after Catra breaks it, and in the fourth, with Catra's new wardrobe more closely resembling Shadow Weaver's.
** Season 4 reveals that Hordak and Adora have surprising similarities. [[spoiler:Both Hordak and the She-Ra mantle were created to be obedient tools of genocidal empires. Both Hordak and Adora have developed strong personalities in spite of this. Both end up depowered at the end of Season 4, with She-Ra's sword broken and Hordak mind-wiped by Horde Prime.]]
** Adora and her [[AbusiveParent abusive foster mother]], Shadow Weaver, don't have ''much'' in common - thankfully - but they do share one prominent trait: a need for control. That being said, it comes from very different places; Shadow Weaver's insecurity and hunger for power drive her to manipulate others, while Adora genuinely wants to help and protect others...but a childhood of being told that the punishments inflicted on Catra were her fault for not keeping Catra under better control gave her a subconscious belief that she needs to fence people in to protect them. It causes her a ''lot'' of problems, since both Catra and Glimmer refuse to be controlled.
* ''WesternAnimation/SouthPark'': After Cartman and [[TheSmartGuy Kyle]] were turned into [[SitcomArchNemesis Sitcom Arch Nemeses]], the two have been on-ends for season after season, mostly with Cartman doing something morally questionable and Kyle trying to stop him. However, in more recent episodes, it's shown that Kyle will go to extreme lengths that would be considered crossing the MoralEventHorizon [[KnightTemplar if he wasn't putting Cartman in danger to get rid of him]], from thieving him to ''murder attempts''. It seems that he's also [[LikeFatherLikeSon more like his mother than he's willing to admit]].
* ''WesternAnimation/StarWarsTheCloneWars'': [[spoiler:Maul]] has more in common with his arch-nemesis Obi-Wan Kenobi than he would like to admit. He shares a similarly dry sense of humor and develops brotherly relationship with Savage not unlike Obi-Wan's brotherhood with Anakin. They experience similar tragedies as both [[spoiler: lose their apprentices to Darth Sidious (albeit Obi-Wan's loss is more metaphorical than literal) and witness the death of a woman important to them while they are forced to helplessly watch. Most notably, when Talzin is killed in front of Maul, he even makes the exact same gesture Obi-Wan did when Satine was murdered]]. This continues into ''WesternAnimation/StarWarsRebels'' with both becoming washed-up hermits who try to mentor a younger hero.

"Back to the Barn" especially highlights their needs to prove themselves and has them go head to head. When she, Lapis, and Connie try to emulate the Crystal Gems Lapis points out that she should have been Pearl which causes Peridot to rant about how they're nothing alike all the while acting out the negative traits she accuses Pearl of having.

** Beast Boy and Raven, despite coming across as complete opposites, are rather similar in a few ways: both have unique skin pigmentations, struggle with a darker side they mask with an outward façade (sarcasm for Raven, happy-go-lucky for Beast Boy), have deep seated insecurities and doubts about themselves, betrayed by someone they thought loved them for who they are (Malchior for Raven, Terra for Beast Boy), and don't possess the best social skills. Really brings the quote "You think you're alone but you're not" into a whole new light.
* ''WesternAnimation/WackyRaces'' has Dick Dastardly as the villain because of his [[DickDastardlyStopsToCheat cheating]], but, in this race, cheating is often the only way for any of the racers to win. Only four of the racers never cheat at all specifically: Peter Perfect, Penelope Pitstop, Lazy Luke and Sergeant Blast. Sure, Dick's schemes involve taking out the other racers, but the rest of them do the same thing (though to be fair the majority of the other racers' attempts are mostly harmless such as jumping a few places ahead or lifting another racer up and driving under them, while Dick Dastardly's plans are often potentially lethal) some of the other racers that are shown as villainous like him are the Ant Hill Mob, the Slug brothers and the Gruesome Twosome. Dastardly's one victory was reversed after finding out he extended his vehicle when crossing the finishing line. He is disqualified and booed vigorously, despite the fact other episodes featured another racer using the same tactic and winning legitimately, being the only example where he was treated unfairly. It should also be noted that, despite this double standard, many of the other racers attempts at dirty tactics (at least intentional ones) lead to slapstick backfires themselves.
* ''WesternAnimation/WanderOverYonder'':
** Season 2 frequently parallels the relationship between Wander and Sylvia with the VillainousFriendship between [[GalacticConqueror Lord Hater]] and [[TheDragon Commander Peepers]]. In "The Battle Royale" Peepers and Sylvia realize that they're each the CloudcuckoolandersMinder to their respective best friends and get into near-FriendlyEnemies territory from there.
** The villain Wander regards as the most dangerous in the galaxy turns out to be a KnightTemplar with the same ForHappiness mission as himself, PracticallyJoker Dr. Screwball Jones. Unlike Wander, Screwball is dangerous because he wants to [[GettingSmiliesPaintedOnYourSoul force "happiness" on others against their will]]. Naturally Wander refuses his offer to join him.
* In ''WesternAnimation/YoungJustice'', Kid Flash and Artemis constantly argued and had an incredibly strained relationship, but it's easy to see that the two are similar in personality: they're both intelligent, yet insecure teenage heroes who resort to sarcasm and bravado to hide their true feelings.

** Over the course of the first three books, [[TheHero Callum]] and [[BigBad Viren]] are also shown to mirror each other greatly: [[UndyingLoyalty devoted]] (initially in Viren's case) to more moral king to the point of being willing to die for them, fascinated by magic even though they traditionally shouldn't be able to use it, and desperate to prove that they can help people. As the story goes on, this only serves to highlight their differences, as while both are willing to cross lines and keep secrets, Callum knows when to stop while Viren only digs himself deeper and hurts more people in an effort to prove that he was right in the first place.

* ''WesternAnimation/AmericanDragonJakeLong'':
** Jake's grandfather was just like Jake in his youth. In fact, he retained the attitude (but was cockier) as a young adult until [[spoiler:he defeated the Dark Dragon the first time.]] This is probably why he's hard on Jake; he doesn't want his grandson to repeat his mistakes.
** Jake and Greggy are from the same family and both inherited the family lineage of dragon transformation and are very egotistical regarding their abilities, but Jake has the experience to back the confidence up, and Greggy falls into "overconfident," very similar to how Jake was when the series first began.
* From ''WesternAnimation/Ben102016'':
** Kevin and Ben. Both of them are mischievous, egotistical pranksters who possess similar devices that allow them to become aliens. They both even have the same tendency to give their aliens silly names.
** This is a major reason as to why Charmcaster has such fury toward Gwen; not in regards to present Gwen, but because Gwen reminds her of [[IHatePastMe her former self]].
** As their squabbling in "Which Watch" shows, Kevin and Charmcaster are rather similar in personality. Both are arrogant, immature, and obsessed with defeating a Tennyson kid. They both have self-esteem issues that they mask by being aggressive and rebellious.
* ''WesternAnimation/DannyPhantom'': Valerie and Paulina are both popular girls at Danny's school who dislike him initially for plenty of reasons (in large part because he's an outcast even before the ghost powers), and both fall for one of Danny's selves after they're saved by him.
* ''WesternAnimation/DextersLaboratory'': Both Dexter and Mandark are defined by their childish egos and temperament, to the point it's no surprise either would be completely insecure about the other's intellect and resent one another.

* ''WesternAnimation/KimPossible'': Interestingly enough, Kim is mirrored not so much by her ArchEnemy, Drakken, but by his SideKick, the calm, level-headed Shego, and Ron is similarly not mirrored so much by the SideKick Shego, but by Drakken, the fairly eccentric and goofy leader of the bad guys.
* ''WesternAnimation/SamuraiJack'', Jack mirrors both Aku and his daughter Ashi.
** Jack and Aku's endless stalemate has taken a toll on both of them: Jack has lost hope of returning to the past and is undergoing SanitySlippage because of it, while Aku is depressed and anxious over the thought that Jack might be here ''forever''. In XCIII they both even have a TalkingToThemself moment, with Jack confronting his nihilism in the hallucinatory form of his "younger" self, and Aku sprouting a second body to give himself therapy.
** Ashi and Jack were both trained from a young age to be deadly warriors for a purpose, are terrifyingly effective in most fights, and underneath are basically nice people once you get to know them. And even on the subject of a fight, they both sport similar expressions of intensity, and while it was brief, Ashi did resort to [[ScreamingWarrior yelling during a fight]] (much as Jack himself frequently does).
* ''WesternAnimation/StarWarsRebels'': Ezra Bridger has a lot of similarities to Luke Skywalker. Both were force-sensitive children born on the day the Empire was created who grew up on a desolate planet in the middle of nowhere, and dreamed of adventure. Both join the rebellion and gain a Jedi mentor after the Empire killed the people who raised them. Both start out with a blue lightsaber before losing it and replacing it with a green one after a fight with Darth Vader, both struggle with the Dark Side but ultimately overcome its temptations, both are seen as a symbol of hope by the rebellion, and both have to step up to become a leader to their friends after [[spoiler:the death of their mentor.]] Both are destined to help the rebellion, but Luke is TheHero of the entire rebellion and plays a vital role in defeating the Empire, while Ezra is TheUnchosenOne and accepts that his destiny is to protect his homeworld rather than directly challenging the Emperor or destroying the Sith.

In XCIII they both even have a TalkingToThemself moment, with Jack confronting his nihilism in the hallucinatory form of his "younger" self, and Aku sprouting a second body to give himself therapy.
** Ashi and Jack were both trained from a young age to be deadly warriors for a purpose, are terrifyingly effective in most fights, and underneath are basically nice people once you get to know them. And even on the subject of a fight, they both sport similar expressions of intensity, and while it was brief, Ashi did resort to [[ScreamingWarrior yelling during a fight]] (much as Jack himself frequently does).
* ''WesternAnimation/StarWarsRebels'': Ezra Bridger has a lot of similarities to Luke Skywalker. Both were force-sensitive children born on the day the Empire was created who grew up on a desolate planet in the middle of nowhere, and dreamed of adventure. Both join the rebellion and gain a Jedi mentor after the Empire killed the people who raised them. Both start out with a blue lightsaber before losing it and replacing it with a green one after a fight with Darth Vader, both struggle with the Dark Side but ultimately overcome its temptations, both are seen as a symbol of hope by the rebellion, and both have to step up to become a leader to their friends after [[spoiler:the death of their mentor.]] Both are destined to help the rebellion, but Luke is TheHero of the entire rebellion and plays a vital role in defeating the Empire, while Ezra is TheUnchosenOne and accepts that his destiny is to protect his homeworld rather than directly challenging the Emperor or destroying the Sith.
* In ''WesternAnimation/TeenTitans'', this is the basis of Slade's WeCanRuleTogether crusade towards Robin. The team even calls Robin out on it a few times, after he does something dickish. Demonstrated ''terrifyingly'' effectively in the Season 4 finale, when [[spoiler:Slade and Robin fight off an army of Trigon's lava monsters, using the ''exact same moves'']]. As Robin points out though, there is one major fundamental difference between them:
-->'''Robin:''' "He doesn't have any [[TrueCompanions friends]]."
