Line 28:
* Mr. Ichinose started out like this in ''[[Maison Ikkoku]]'', but he did eventually appear (in a story where his appearance was the main focus). Oddly enough, he recognized everyone from Maison Ikkoku on sight, and knew many things about them. However, none of the tenants recognized him. He continued to make appearances in expected places for the rest of the manga's run.
* Toji's sister in ''[[Neon Genesis Evangelion]]'' started out as this. [http://i198.photobucket.com/albums/aa305/secondgryphon/Sketches/EVA/Screencaps/r2-19-Sister.jpg She finally appeared] in ''Rebuild 2.0''.
* [[Yu-Gi-Oh!]]:
** Contrary to popular belief, Yugi Mutou from [[Yu-Gi-Oh! (anime)|| the original anime]] ''did'' have a mother, and she ''wasn't'' dead. She was seen in one brief scene in the manga, and one scene in one episode after the Duelist Kingdom arc (which was cut from the dub) but that was it. Exactly why she kept herself hidden all the time wasn't clear.
** Jonouchi's father was someone who was never seen, except in one panel in the manga, but he was talked about often.

** It's mentioned that Sybil Ramkin's father shot the man when he started to work his particular landscaping genius on their estate, although whether this is what killed him is unclear.
** Mrs Colon was The Ghost up to ''[[
* The letters that ''[[Last Dragon]]'' consists of are addressed to Esumi, a character we never meet in the story and about whom we learn very little.
* In ''[[The Catcher in The Rye]]'', Jane Gallagher is one of the few people Holden respects and admires. Thinking she might have had sex with Holden's boorish roommate sparks the fight that sets the plot in motion. Holden considers or tries to call her at various points during the novel, but never reaches her.
