* ''VisualNovel/HigurashiWhenTheyCry'':
** At the end of the penultimate arc of Kai, when trying to figure out [[spoiler:why their efforts failed]], Rena says she understands why, looks straight out at the screen and says, "Did you really [[spoiler:believe]]?" It turns out that she's talking to [[spoiler:Hanyuu]], who then affirms [[spoiler:her desire to finally fight alongside them]], but the double meaning seems clear.
** This is even more prevalent in the final episode of the game, where Rika ([[ItsALongStory maybe]]) directly speaks to the player, saying that the task of getting the [[GoldenEnding Good End]] is [[EarnYourHappyEnding monumentally hard]] and he must not be overcome by despair, because it's despair that kept them locked in the GroundhogDayLoop until then. Like in the anime, she explains that [[ScrewDestiny Fate can be defeated]] only if everyone believes, including you. And she even adds that if you give up and uninstall the game, they will stay trapped in the DownerEnding. [[GuiltBasedGaming Forever]].

* Played With in ''Literature/AlmostAFantasy'': Merlin's very first line is him acknowleding that he is the character of a novel, and because Alexander is a writer and an AuthorAvatar, Merlin is also referring to the fact that eventually ''Almost a Fantasy'' will be written in-universe as well.

* Played With in ''Literature/AlmostAFantasy'': Merlin's very first line in ''Literature/AlmostAFantasy'' is him acknowleding that he is the character of a novel, and because novel. Justified since Alexander is a writer and an AuthorAvatar, AuthorAvatar; Merlin can see the future and is also referring to the fact that eventually ''Almost a Fantasy'' will be written in-universe as well.
