Line 20: * [[Big Bad\|Fate Averruncus]] from ''[[Mahou Sensei Negima]]'' can use water to teleport (Evangeline and Kotaro use shadow instead). ** {{spoiler\|Akira}}'s Artifact lets her get in on the act, too. * In ''[[~~xxxHolic~~×××HOLiC]]'', purified water, such as that from an old well, can link to a pool on the mountain that the Zashiki-Warashi lives on. * One of the three demons lords in ''[[Demon City Shinjuku]]'' resides in an aquatic abyss, and uses the city's puddles as portal pools to pull in and drown unwary travelers. When the hero kills the demon in its own realm, all the puddles suddenly erupt as geysers, throwing him back into the real world. Line 26: * [[Hot Tub Time Machine\|Hot Tub]] [[Exactly What It Says on the Tin\|Time Machine]]. * In ''[[Pirates of the Caribbean]]: At World's End'', {{spoiler\|the ocean of Davy Jones' Locker acts as a one-way Portal Pool that leads [[Back ~~From~~from the Dead]], but only if you're in an upside-down boat, and only at sunset (which is sunrise in the living world). And anything that sucks you underwater from this end - waterfalls, whirlpools, humongous invertebrate cephalopods - can take you over.}} ** In ''On Stranger Tides'', the pool of gravity-defying water in the cave is a portal to the Fountain of Youth, although at first it looks like the pool "eats" things that touch it. * Inverted in ''[[Enchanted]]'': a fairy-tale princess is pushed down a well and ends up in the very ''un''-magical land of modern Manhattan. Line 89: * ''[[Codename: Kids Next Door]]'', "Operation POOL": In fact, in this episode, any swimming pool combined with the proper [[Applied Phlebotinum]] can become a portal between the real world and the [[Mirror Universe]]. * Peter Potamus' hot tub in ''[[Harvey Birdman, Attorney at Law]]'' somehow turns into a portal to prehistory. * ''[[The Grim Adventures of Billy ~~and~~& Mandy]]'' parodies the Twilight Zone episode in "Puddle Jumpers", when Grim's scythe turns Billy's inflatable pool into a "cosmic sinkhole" that leads to several different worlds, including a bayou inhabited by a kindly old grandmother... except [[I'm a Humanitarian\|she wants to bake Billy into a pie]]. * The ''[[Cow and Chicken]]'' episode "The Laughing Puddle": people are disappearing one by one into a creepy laughing puddle, until Chicken is the only one remaining. With great trepidation he jumps inside—and {{spoiler\|lands in a bar where Boneless Chicken is doing a stand-up (pun definitely not intended) show.}} * [[Courage the Cowardly Dog]] featured a sea witch of sorts who used these to transport back and forth in between her magical lair.
