It just may be the cruelest, most frustrating thing a writer could ever pull. Two characters are finally about to bring all their shippers' dreams to fruition. They're about to resolve all the UST and cross the Just Friends line, at last. They're staring mesmerized into each others' eyes, inching forward ever so slowly, less than a millimeter away from lip-to-lip contact. This is it, the fans scream in their minds. They're finally going to kiss! And then... They don't. Were they interrupted by a knock on the door or falling meteor? Did one of them remember the dead Temporary Love Interest they promised never to forget? Was the thought of a Relationship Upgrade suddenly just too scary? Well, for some reason, no doubt connected to Status Quo Is God, they can't or won't go through with it. They may be giggling afterwards, or they may be crying a river. The sad thing is, the Almost Kiss says as much as a kiss, anyway, since we can see they both want it. But this way, the tension and dreams of shippers remain for the writers to continue to take advantage of. Sometimes referred to as a "near-miss kiss". Study the Moment Killer for a larger concept. Contrast the successful Big Damn Kiss. In shows aimed at a younger audience where a kiss is a big deal, there is usually a big relationship-sealing kiss saved for the finale, preceded by several "almost" moments during the earlier episodes. This is a genre standard in Bollywood films. Kissing in movies was censored in India and it is still seen as racy, so filmmakers perfected the art of showing the leads caressing with lips oh-so-close to each other. Unlike in other instances of this trope, an actual kiss (or more) is usually implied to have taken place. A similar variant can be found in non-Indian media where the two non-kissers are of the same sex. The depiction of same-sex kisses was banned in the Western media industry until a few decades ago, and, while LGBT+ activism has challenged and often overpowered the stigma, an explicit kiss is still considered too spicy in genres targeted towards social conservatives (like Action Genre works). Unlike in the Bollywood variant, these scenes don't usually indicate a kiss has taken place, and tend to revolve more around Does This Remind You of Anything? imagery intended to create a charged, homoerotic atmosphere for those willing and able to see it. Because of this "deniability", it can be considered a form of Queerbaiting. noreallife Examples |

In The Penguins of Madagascar episode "The Falcon and the Snow Job", Skipper, after defeating the other falcon who wanted to eat King Julien, has an Almost Kiss with Kitka. Julien ruins the moment by mocking the fact that they're both birds and would have to "love peck" instead of kiss, due to their lack of lips. Instant Moment Killer. | |

Jane gets close and they end up looking into each other's eyes very intensely. They almost kiss, but Jane pulls herself back. Edward has to take a few breaths to recover from the moment. | |

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. After Ron walks out on them, Harry tries to cheer Hermione up with a dance that ends with a moment of sexual tension... then Hermione guiltily turns away. Harry's Like Brother and Sister comment from the book is noticeably missing from the scene after Ron destroys the Horcrux (which had been taunting him with illusions of Hermione loving Harry). | |

Even more frustrating in Devil May Cry 4 with Nero and Kyrie. The Big Bad has been defeated, the world is at peace, Nero saves the girl he loves... what better mood to lean in and go for it? Unfortunately just a few millimeters away, Nero pulls a gun at a swarm of demon baddies determined to interrupt, and ends up telling Kyrie that kiss is going to have to wait. You never see it. If one protects her competently during the credits, it's strongly implied that they go through with it. | |

Any chance for Ranma and Akane in Ranma ½ to explore their feelings for each other with a kiss is interrupted by someone (or several someones) — very often their over-eager fathers who want them to marry right now, or bystanders and/or rivals who go out of their way to interrupt and completely ruin the mood. It. Happens. All. The. Time. One story has Shampoo cursed by Maomolin and would turn into a cat forever if she can't be kissed from the guy she loves. Ranma accepts, but when they start to kiss, they are interrupted by an angry Akane because they were "too serious". At the end, the curse is broken when Shampoo kisses him while she is in her cat-form. |

Journey into Mystery (Gillen): Kid Loki and Leah have one near the end of Everything Burns, as they're both about to be violently killed by Surtur. They get interrupted by Thor and his army, complete with a lampshade from Loki about how perfect the timing was. Sadly, it's one of the last moments Leah and Loki have together before everything turns to shit, which would have made this both their First Kiss and Last Kiss, had they actually been allowed to do it. While it's obvious they care deeply for each other, this Almost Kiss is the closest they get to expressing it. | |

Coupling's walking relationship-dictionary Jeff Murdoch gives us the self-explanatory phrase "Nose Avoidance Tilting". The scene in question has Jeff and his new boss Julia almost kissing during an awkward moment in the stationary cupboard, but both of them choose not to after imagining worst-case-scenarios of what would happen if they did: Julia imagines him criticising her for various reasons (e.g, bad breath), Jeff imagines her getting him arrested and his mother emasculating him with a miniature guillotine. | |

A late chapter of Hana-Kimi actually subverts this. Sano and Mizuki have finally admitted their feelings for each other and they're this close to kissing... when Noe knocks on the door. Mizuki turns away to answer it, but Sano basically refuses to let the moment be ruined and spins her around and kisses her anyway, initiating the most intense make-out in the entire manga. It's amazingly satisfying after twenty-two volumes of Unresolved Sexual Tension between the two. | |

Miraculous Ladybug: In "Horrificator", Marinette says one line and leans in to kiss Adrien, but gets interrupted at the last minute by a pissed off Chloé. Between Alya and Nino in "Stormy Weather 2". In "The Puppeteer 2", thinking he was just a statue, Marinette almost kisses Adrien. In "Truth", Marinette and Luka come close to kissing on their movie date when Mr. Pigeon causes a moment killer. In "Lies", this happens two times between Kagami and Adrien, first during fencing practice and when the two finish school, in their cars, respectively. In "Dark Cupid", Ladybug tries several times, in vain, to kiss a for once reluctant Cat Noir (under the influence of a Hate Plague), until she manage to gave him the True Love's Kiss that cures him. In "Ladybug", Cat Noir almost kiss Sentibug, thinking it is the real one, until the actual Ladybug shows up and pull them apart. |

The first comes when Carol abandons dinner with her boyfriend in favour of discussing possible motives for the murders with Tony, the second when the pair are lying on their stomachs in Tony's living room discussing dominance and submission. Both moments are broken when neither of the two can seem to gather the courage to take their relationship that extra step. | |

Played for laughs with the cats Danny and Sawyer at the end of Cats Don't Dance. At the end of their glorious impromptu stage debut, Danny extends his right hand at Sawyer, who takes it with her left. They close their eyes, move their heads closer, pucker up and kiss. But not each other: director Flanigan put his head between them to start gushing about the performance. Danny can't push his tongue far enough out of his mouth, and poor Sawyer almost whooped her cookies. | |

Birds of Prey: A violent example. When Super-villain Killer Shark brainwashes Lady Blackhawk into thinking she is Queen Killer Shark, she leads him to his grandfather's treasure. This causes Killer Shark to cry and to reveal that he had originally intended to kill her after he got his treasure, but has changed his mind. As he leans in for a kiss, Zinda subconsciously punches him, breaking his teeth. | |

Power Rangers is notorious for this. Aside from Tommy and Kimberly in the earlier seasons, almost none of the established couples get to kiss on-screen. Examples include: Power Rangers Time Force, Wes and Jen. "Damn phone", indeed. Power Rangers RPM: Dillon and Summer. Twice in the same scene, even! Power Rangers Dino Charge: Tyler and Shelby. Koda's only bad moment. Power Rangers Dino Fury: Ollie and Amelia. "What'cha dooooin'?" |

As they are leaning in for a second one though, Shining Armor purposely interrupts them, telling them to break it up and for his sister to go inside.

Total Drama: It's a hallmark of the series that (especially first) kisses almost always get postponed. With the exception of World Tour, every intro sequence ends with a couple going in for (ostensibly) a kiss and being interrupted in some manner. In Island, Gwen and Trent lean in close at the campfire when Cody, Gwen unwanted suitor, shows up. In Action, Geoff and Bridgette are about to kiss at the set of the 'Aftermath when they realize the camera is already rolling. In Revenge of the Island, Zoey and Mike lean in close at the campfire when Chef shows up with the Marshmallow of Toxic Loserdom. In All-Stars, Zoey and Mike more blatantly go in for a kiss at the campfire when Sierra ruins the moment by taking a photo for her fansites. And in Pahkitew Island'', Shawn and Jasmine lean in close at the campfire when Chris decides to dress up as a zombie and scare Shawn away. When Bridgette is eliminated, Geoff tries to give her a farewell kiss, but backs off at the last second when the stench from the skunks that sprayed her earlier overwhelms him. |

Torchwood: This happens in the episode "Captain Jack Harkness". Jack and the real Jack Harkness almost kiss, but stop when the rift suddenly opens. However, subverted when Jack runs back and kisses the real Jack anyway. Jack gets another almost-kiss in "Fragments". He falls on Ianto, they laugh, roll around, and share an intense moment where their faces get really close... and then Ianto stands up and starts walking away. Jack and Gwen have an Almost Kiss in "Something Borrowed", but the moment is killed when Jack sprouts fangs and claws; it's not really Jack, it's the shape-shifting nostrovite. |

A "deleted scenes" example here: At the end of Star Fox Adventures, Krystal, the love interest of Fox McCloud comes aboard the team's ship. Originally, Fox would have offered her a place on the team, with her replying she would only do so if he would kiss her. The rumored reason for this scene not happening is that Rare's animators couldn't convincingly portray the kiss (this is somewhat similar to the Chicken Run example). Unused audio of this scene can be found here. | |

Metal Gear Solid V has several scenes where Kaz gets his face right up to Snake's in closeup - so many that Kojima actually had to push for some of the shots against the wishes of his dev team, who found them too suggestive. There's also a scene where Ocelot lights Snake's cigar, with the dialogue and camera angle indicating it's a stand-in for a friendly goodbye kiss between two established lovers. | |

Inuyasha: Very early on in the story, Inu-Yasha almost kisses Kagome because he's thinking of Kikyô. Kagome pushes him away, though, and due to the circumstances, it doesn't represent a mutual acknowledgement of their feelings. Much later in their relationship, they have a more traditional Almost Kiss, but Souta walks in on them before anything can happen. | |

After losing a keepsake of Matsuri, Suzu asks him for a kiss as condolence. He obliges, but is cut off when Une reveals she found the lost object. Suzu then grabs Matsuri while begging to continue, but he refuses. |

Damian refused the bath because he didn't think it was proper for them to be alone in her apartment, beside Bond. However, Bond got jealous and attacked Damian for trying to steal Anya, and Damian ends up taking the bath when Bond tackled him and got wet when they knocked down a flower base. After his bath, Anya gives Damian some of Loid's clothes that he uses for his costumes, and when Anya checks his temperature, Damian gets exited and pins Anya to the couch. As they move in for a kiss, Yor arrives, and they move to oposite sides of the couch. | |

The X-Files: Fight the Future: Mulder and Scully almost, almost kiss in a hallway, but Scully gets stung by a bee just before it happens. In the DVD commentary, Chris Carter tries to peddle the idea that the emotions from the almost kiss in the hallway plus the CPR scene later in the movie equals a kiss. Not surprisingly, nobody buys that. |

In Tales of Phantasia, Artemis refuses to let the party see the moon spirit Luna, with whom they want to form a summon contract with, until Arche kisses Cless. As they are just about to do it, Mint pushes the two apart claiming it's "not right" to do this. Then Luna's voice interrupts further by telling Artemis to stop his prank and allow them to see her already. | |

In Maoyu, the Demon Queen asks the Hero to rest his head on her lap so she can caress his hair. Shortly after she's leaning in to kiss him, but then a horse's neigh at the stable interrupts them, and the Hero runs of to see what's going on. The Demon Queen is naturally dismayed. | |

Metal Gear: The remake of Metal Gear Solid, The Twin Snakes, has Meryl and Snake almost kiss after the fight with Liquid; unfortunately they were interrupted by a codec call from Otacon. This isn't present in the original PlayStation game. Naomi and Otacon do some Bollywood-esque non-kissing in Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots, after which they hook up. Not infrequently used for Does This Remind You of Anything? between male characters, for whom having them actually kiss would enrage too many players: In Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots, Otacon, who has been berating Snake for smoking for most of the game and previous entries, lights Snake's cigarette before his final mission in an intimate shot that resembles a kiss. Metal Gear Solid V has several scenes where Kaz gets his face right up to Snake's in closeup - so many that Kojima actually had to push for some of the shots against the wishes of his dev team, who found them too suggestive. There's also a scene where Ocelot lights Snake's cigar, with the dialogue and camera angle indicating it's a stand-in for a friendly goodbye kiss between two established lovers. |

In Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening, immediately after battling Lady, Dante leans in, Lady stares into his eyes... and turns her head away at the last second. Given Dante and Lady only knew each other for a grand total of 10–15 minutes in that game (and this is being generous), them not kissing was probably for the best. | |

In Wolf Hall, Mary Boleyn finds Thomas Cromwell after Henry and Anne hold an unofficial marriage ceremony in Calais. She tries to kiss him, saying that they've earned their own recreation after all the work it took to get Henry and Anne together. Cromwell is initially hesitant, since Mary has been looking for just about any husband to get away from her family, but decides to anyway. Then a third figure appears in the dark courtyard and he instantly has a knife to the man's throat. (It turns out to be William Stafford, arriving late enough that Mary thought she was stood up. They end up getting married—and tossed out of court—anyhow.) | |

At the school dance, much to the frustration of fans as this has been building up for literally the whole show up to that point (okay, it's only the end of the first season) before they're interrupted by a tornado warning. Bound: Chloe pushing Clark up an elevator wall to investigate the murder of Lex's one nightstand. A woman and her two children serve as the Moment Killer. Clark and Kyla when he lies on top of her to shield her from falling rocks. There is a romantic moment where Clark and Lois almost kiss while dancing at Chloe's wedding, but they are interrupted by the reappearance of Clark's ex-girlfriend, Lana. |

Kaguya-sama: Love Is War actually uses this as a plot point in chapter 78. Shirogane nearly ends up kissing Kaguya when they're locked in a storage shed, only for Miko to open the door right before anything can happen. It ends up throwing Kaguya's feelings into overdrive, to the point that she ends up fainting due to love sickness in the following chapter. This would directly lead to her developing her routine to keep her nerves under control. | |

Avatar: The Last Airbender: Possibly Aang and Katara in "The Cave of Two Lovers". However, the lights go out as they're moving in, and to this day, it's a mystery if there was an Almost Kiss or a First Kiss. The producers say that it was a first kiss. And another, far less ambiguous one when they dance together in "The Headband", ending with both of them panting and sweating heavily. In "The Serpent's Pass", Sokka and Suki also share an Almost Kiss-moment on a moonlit night, which is exactly why Sokka can't go through with it (his last girlfriend died and became the Moon Spirit). He makes up for by the end of the episode with two Shut Up Kisses. |

When Cinderella III: A Twist in Time has Lady Tremaine use a stolen magic wand to undo Cinderella's and Prince Charming's wedding, one of the magical visions shows the original film's closing scene of the couple heading towards their honeymoon, but pulls them away before they can seal the story with a kiss. |

During the paragon dialogue path with Miranda, she requests more time to think before Shepard gets around to kissing her. The Renegade path is funnier. A lot of femShep/Garrus shippers were not happy that just when you think they're about to kiss... they don't (even though it's been made clear for two games that a human kissing a turian would cause both of them to go into anaphylactic shock). Then averted in the third game, where they have at least two big damn kisses. |

When Joe reveals to Amelia that he canceled his second date with another woman and broke up with her because of his rekindled feelings for Amelia, they almost share a kiss, only for Edwina to burst into the kitchen. After Joe proves that he was innocent of the fire by showing Amelia the picture his mom took of him and his dad at another restaurant that night, they nearly kiss, only for the pie in Amelia's oven to catch fire and set off the sprinklers. On their first date, Joe leans in on Amelia for a kiss, just when the real Joe comes home from his baker's retreat. He and Amelia are shocked by his twin brother Sam pretending to be him to seduce her. Joe and Amelia almost kiss after installing the toilet before they are interrupted by Yuka and Eve, who make fun of them for almost kissing in the bathroom. After hanging pictures in the "romantic date room", Joe and Amelia almost kiss before they are interrupted by Esme and Kate. |

Teen Titans has several: Beast Boy and Terra are interrupted on a date by Slade. Cyborg has two with Sarasim in one episode: first, they're interrupted by a monster-army attack, and then, he pulls away saying, "I'm really sorry," because he just feels they're too different for it to work out. Starfire and Robin pass up numerous perfect moments, but most noticeably before Robin leaves in "The End" to help Slade find Raven, and a few times in Teen Titans: Trouble in Tokyo. |

Johnny the Homicidal Maniac was going to kiss Devi in a completely out of character moment... but realized how happy he was and snuck off to go back to his usual Crazy Kill Mode. Luckily, Devi beat the crap out of him before he could succeed, and to this day fans of the ship cannot read the scene without massive Face Palm. | |

A version sort of happens in The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword as although they were never going to kiss, to the player it looks like they will. Near the start of the game after Link has won the Annual Bird Flight Ceremomy and has been given the sailcloth, Zelda says that, in what seems like an embarrased way, that there is "something else that they are supposed to do at the end of the ceremony...". Link's expression at this, and the options the player is given on how to reply ("Nope.", "Sort of...", "Uh-oh...") it's extremely heavily implied they are going to kiss. Just before it looks like Zelda is going to kiss Link, she instead turns him around and pushes him off the edge of the statue they are standing on as part of the final test of the ceremony. | |

ReBoot: Dot and Bob suffer from this on several occasions. Once by the appearance of Rocky the Rabid Raccoon, and once by the appearance of a second Bob! Another occurrence is in the first season episode "Talent Night", where Dot nearly kisses a very shocked Bob in front of the entire city. Of course, she ends that one herself by putting a hand on his face and pushing him to the ground. In the "Daemon Rising" arc the brainwashed AndrAIa explains how important love is to the innocent-looking virus Daemon... who leans in very close, as if she was trying to get a kiss from the game sprite. |

Kim Possible: Way too many times in Season 4 when Kim and Ron are about to kiss. Wade, Monique, and Bonnie are just a few of the people who interrupt would-be kisses between Kim and Ron. The Word of God admitted it is an intriguing gag. It wasn't as frustrating as most Almost Kiss scenes are, because it isn't used to delay or step back from a Relationship Upgrade. | |

The Brothers Grimm has an interesting variation. Jacob uses True Love's Kiss to wake Angelika and break the spell. When he sees that his brother Will hasn't woken up, he assumes that he needs to do the same to him. He gets very close and apparently would have actually kissed him if Will hadn't said, "Not. You." | |

Tangled: The Series: Rapunzel and Eugene are interrupted quite a few times before getting a moment all to themselves in the pilot movie. Cass also gets one with charming hipster Andrew in "Under Raps," when their kiss is interrupted by their hot air balloon hitting the ground. This was probably a quite welcome interruption for Cass, seeing as how she was actually luring him into a trap the whole time and had no actual romantic interest in him whatsoever. King Frederic and Queen Arianna in the episode, "The King and Queen of Hearts". |

The Dragon Prince has one tragic example. Callum asked Claudia to a date to the Moon Nexus at night, and it seemed to be going rather well up to the moment where they were going in for a kiss. However, Claudia's conscience couldn't let her seal the deal without admitting that she and her brother have been witholding the news that Callum's stepfather was killed in combat. Suffice to say, he wasn't in the mood for a kiss anymore. | |

It swerves as it starts to break, flying erratically to the point where it nearly hits Hachimaki and Tanabe, forcing dive out of the way just before they kiss.

But, to make things fair, it wasn't a kiss, it was the "Gorlockon Seal of Trust". Also in the episode "Out, Darn Spotlight", Jimmy and Betty are finally about to do a stage kiss for "Macbeth In Space", when a weather machine built by Jimmy malfunctions and begins to send the school through a tornado. Also happens with Nick and Betty who are about to kiss during rehearsal until Jimmy intentionally interrupts them by using said machine to create a dark cloud their way, which rains on them just before the kiss happens. |

Played darkly and subtlety in Robin Hood. Guy of Gisborne has just proposed to Marian and been accepted. He moves in for a kiss, but she looks tearful and uncertain, and both turn their heads away fractionally. (Reasons being that he's just threatened her with execution after accusing her of being in cahoots with Robin over a missing necklace. She proves him wrong by producing it – Robin has just passed it to her through the window, and is privy to everything that goes on inside the room). | |

Case Closed: Takagi and Sato, so many times. The first time, when both were in emotional moods after a case where Takagi almost dies and Sato is reminded of That One Case involving her First Love but are accidentally interrupted by their boss Megure. The second, after a case where Takagi stopped a culprit from committing suicide after a disagreement he had with Satou, but Kogoro reminds them that Takagi is driving and they could crash if they kiss. The third, when Sato directly asks Takagi to give her a kiss as a part of a Fake-Out Make-Out plot to try catching a Serial Killer, but Conan catches them having correctly deduced the circumstances and gets caught in a noogie by a furious Sonoko for it. Finally resolved when Takagi is in the hospital after having been Alone with the Psycho and injured within an inch of his life, and Satou kisses him on the lips rather epically once he wakes up from post-surgery anesthesia. And not before he openly lampshades the trope via mentioning how many times they couldn't kiss and hoping this won't be another one. Not to be outdone, Ran and temporarily re-aged-up Shinichi also get one of these during a School Play where she's playing a princess and he's playing her knight. |

Devil May Cry: In Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening, immediately after battling Lady, Dante leans in, Lady stares into his eyes... and turns her head away at the last second. Given Dante and Lady only knew each other for a grand total of 10–15 minutes in that game (and this is being generous), them not kissing was probably for the best. Even more frustrating in Devil May Cry 4 with Nero and Kyrie. The Big Bad has been defeated, the world is at peace, Nero saves the girl he loves... what better mood to lean in and go for it? Unfortunately just a few millimeters away, Nero pulls a gun at a swarm of demon baddies determined to interrupt, and ends up telling Kyrie that kiss is going to have to wait. You never see it. If one protects her competently during the credits, it's strongly implied that they go through with it. |

Mordecai and Margaret from Regular Show, three times: "Death Bear": Before they are interrupted by a vicious bear in an abandoned zoo park. "Bad Kiss": There is an actual kiss when Mordecai goes back to the car looking for his wallet and Margaret follows him. Unfortunately, due to Mordecai's bad breath he gets pushed away, instantly freaks out and escapes from the scene. When talking to Rigby, he finds out that he is in possession of a time machine, so they try to go back in time and fix the ordeal... repeatedly. Eventually, after failed attempts to prevent past!Mordecai from eating a chili dog that day, make him brush his teeth, eat a mint and et cetera, Mordecai settles on making the kiss not happen. He reaches for his lost wallet just as Margaret is about to kiss him. "Do or Diaper": Due to having so many failed attempts to kiss Margaret, Mordecai agrees to a bet with Muscle Man, which states that if he can kiss Margaret until Friday midnight, Muscle Man will have to wear a diaper for a week and if he cannot, he will have to wear the diaper. He asks Margaret out, but her only free evening is Friday. Their date goes well, until Margaret finds out Muscle Man and Rigby have been following them the entire time and Mordecai is forced to tell her about the bet. Obviously, she's not happy to hear about it. Mordecai apologizes and tries to help her understand his actions — that he had only agreed to the bet to help him get the extra confidence to go through with the kiss. She asks him what time is it and after he replies "11:59", she approaches him, embraces him and leans in — right before she whispers to his ear "Have a nice week, diaper boy." |

''Code Geass" Taken to ridiculous degree between the two Tsundere Kallen and Lelouch where almost all of their interactions end up either in a moment of Unresolved Sexual Tension or with an Almost Kiss that never happens because of different type of interruptions. They eventually tie the knot and share a Big Damn Kiss that will not stop them of standing on the opposite side of the battlefield so maybe almost kissing was better. | |

In The Flash Sentry Chronicles: After Soarin mends Rainbow's clipped wing and they chat for awhile the two slowly start to lean in closer to each other, before they are interrupted by the medic coming through the door and they jolt away. Subverted in their second attempt, where they are uninterrupted. When Flash and Twilight are forced to spend time together alone on a ship, they slowly start to reminisce over how much their lives have changed and how it all started the day they met. The two slowly begin to lean their faces closer to each other, only to be interrupted when the ship they are on crashes into a reef. |

My Dress-Up Darling: The scene in the love hotel between Marin and Gojo gets a huge dose of Adaptation Expansion in the anime. For starters, when Gojo grabs Marin's waist, she accidentally tosses her cellphone away, and it hits a switch that turns the room's lights off. Then the two stare at each other in silence while only their heavy breathing is heard, so they start getting into a more comfortable position before leaning forward to kiss, and only then does the phone ring to interrupt the moment. | |

Wonder Woman (1975): In "The Man Who Could Move the World", the titular man Takeo Ishida, puts both Wonder Woman and Steve Trevor into mortal peril by forcing Wonder Woman, via amplified telekinesis, to step on a bomb. Wonder Woman just barely manages to overpower the mental commands by overloading the amplifier. She and Steve share a long moment touching each other's arms and staring into each other's eyes before finally breaking away from each other. | |

In Young Sheldon, the hapless and ineffectual Pastor Jeff has the misfortune of being spiritual advisor to the Cooper family and is on the point of adultery with Robin, a policewoman who is enamoured of him. They are just about to kiss... and at that point Missy Cooper phones for spiritual guidance to avoid ending up in Hell (because he'd called a moment ago to talk to Mary, who wasn't home, and when Jeff asked what Missy was doing, she lied and said she was watching TV when in reality she was playing with a Ouiji board. She felt so bad about lying to a pastor, that she called back and confessed). Pastor Jeff believes Missy's call to be a sign from God and stops himself from pursuing a physical relationship with Robin. | |

She has another near-miss kiss with Yuuichi in a later episode, except she stops because she has realized it's all part of Yukariko's Lotus-Eater Machine, and thus just wishful thinking. In the last episode, Mai and Yuuichi are about to kiss when Mai stops, having noticed that Shiho and several of Mai's friends are watching them. In My-Otome Zwei, Akane and Kazuya are about to kiss when Mahya pops up and tells them they are not to be within three meters of each other. |

Erika and the Princes in Distress: During the Floating Island story arc, Prince Egg-White is turned into a tree after eating a poisoned apple, and Erika is told the only way to turn him back is to kiss his face now etched into the trunk. She is hesitant to do so, as it would be her first time kissing someone, but before their lips actually touch, an enormous apple grows from the tree and falls, breaking open and revealing Egg-White inside. During the Terapia story arc, Prince Aurel must breathe the perfume of a flower that'll put him in a deep slumber, so that he is rid of his terrible breath, allowing Erika to kiss him and rid him of the curse placed on him. However, right before she is able to go through with it, Morphine reveals herself and steals Aurel's body right under her nose. |

Fairy Tail: Jellal and Erza after the Time Skip. The tension lasts three whole pages, coupled with a sunrise and symbolic plants. They even get The Big Damn Kiss action shot... and then Jellal mentions his fiancée. Granted, he was trying to ruin the moment, but c'mon! The writer actually states that maybe they did kiss for a short moment — it's open for the reader's interpretation. Natsu and Lucy nearly kiss in an omake (at Asuka's "request"), but Lucy freaks out and puts Happy in the way at the last second. |

While they both very clearly still have feelings for each other Steph doesn't think she's ready to jump back into a relationship with Tim, and she points out that he understandably is still learning to trust her again after she let him believe she'd been murdered for two years and then betrayed his trust on Bruce's orders right after she got back. | |

Gunslinger Girl In Chapter 38, Petra does a leap onto a balcony where her handler Sandro is fighting with an attacker. Suggestive Collision ensues, and for a moment their faces are quite close...until Sandro shoves her off him as she's really heavy thanks to her cyborg body. Before the assault on the bell tower in Chapter 61, it looks like Triela is standing up on her toes to give Hilshire a peck on the cheek before a couple of GIS troopers barge in on them. |

Jimmy Two-Shoes: Happens once to both frustrate the fans and for pure comedy. When everyone in Miseryville falls asleep Jimmy's the only one awake, so when he gets to Heloise's house and finds her asleep like Cinderella, he finds a book next to her that says that tells of the wake-up kiss. He appears to consider it, but dismisses it and chucks the book away. Nearly happens again when Heloise has Jimmy under the influence of a love sweater, only to be interrupted by Beezy who, under the influence of a fear sweater, "rescues" Jimmy from her. |

Buffy the Vampire Slayer: In "When She Was Bad", Willow and Xander share a sweet and believable exchange, before a sexually tense Almost Kiss. It's interrupted when they are attacked by a vampire. Averted when Mr. Giles and Ms. Calendar have a sweet romantic talk right before class. They're about to kiss, only to be interrupted by the school bell — but they don't let that stop them. At the beginning of "Hush" Buffy and Riley are about to kiss when a nervous Buffy does a Moment Killer by babbling about something inconsequential. Fortunately the Monster of the Week steals the voices of everyone in Sunnydale, so the two communicate the only way they can. |

Konoka and Setsuna in Negima! Magister Negi Magi have one of these when Setsuna found her resolve to kiss the girl through a (admittedly questionable) Confessional. Maybe a subversion since it was a pactio, of which the (somewhat) unromantic nature of was partially the cause of Setsuna's resolve and the fact that there was no actual build-up since we're shown this from Asuna's (the interrupter) perspective. The author then goes for several volumes to facilitate a proper pactio for the two in order to satisfy the legions of KonoSetsu shippers. Until chapter 252. | |

Firefly in the episode "Objects in Space": It's taken Simon and Kaylee the whole series to reach that moment. They're having a heart-to-heart. They're staring into each other's eyes. They're inching closer. His hand starts to reach out to caress her cheek. They lean in for the kiss. And then Book walks into them. Then there’s Mal and Zoe in “War Stories� although they were doing it to tease Wash, who spent the episode jealous of Mal. Wash gets up, grabs Zoe and says “We’ll be in our bunk� as a Call-Back to the Trope Namer quote earlier in the episode. |

How I Met Your Mother: Watch the gag reel; if anyone forgets their line and ends up just staring, they will start leaning in. There's also an interesting variation in-universe. Robin and Barney are talking about an Almost Kiss they had in the rain when her cell phone rang and ruined the moment. While they're laughing about what a bad idea that would have been, they end up actually kissing—among other things. The almost kiss is a running gag with Barney and Robin—they nearly kiss during Punchy's wedding, and again during "Splitsville," interrupted by a badly timed phone call each time. Invoked by Victoria in the episode "Drumroll Please," where she, during her first encounter with Ted at a wedding, insists they intentionally stop short of the kiss, as the lead up to the kiss (the "drumroll") is the most romantic part, and the kiss itself could be disappointing. After her breakup with Don, a drunk and heartbroken Robin is consoled by Ted. This leads to an awkward moment when Robin tries to kiss him, but his cap gets in the way. When Robin removes it, she sees Ted's new blond hair and they both laugh. |

Happens several times in SHUFFLE! The first is with Rin and Sia: When they get separated from their friends during the Beach Episode, they act like they've crossed into another world where they're alone and go for the kiss. Hilarious in that Primula walks behind them looking for seashells; both parties ignore each other's presence. The second instance is when Rin walks Asa home after the latter twisted her ankle. Both are sitting on her bed, and Rin is getting teased. When the poor girl stands up, she trips and falls on Rin, pinning him to the bed. She leans in for the kiss, but her mother comes home and goes up to the room; when she opens the door, we see the two separated, with Rin sitting at the desk (as is, of course, proper for a gentleman). |

Obnoxiously overused in Beauty and the Beast. In practically every episode Vincent and Catherine start to engage in a kiss, but at the last moment they always wince and just hug each other instead. After a while, it didn't feel like "the characters always come to the realization that their love is not possible," so much as "the producers were afraid of outcries of bestiality." When he finally did kiss her, it was after she was dead. Arrgghhh! | |

Frasier: In the episode "Daphne Hates Sherry", there's a brilliant almost have sex scenario with Niles and Daphne, three years before their actual hookup. Filled with Tennessee Williams references in the title cards and elsewhere. The Moment Killer is particularly cruel, as Frasier points out to Niles at the end of the episode that if his brain had been in gear (for obvious reasons, it wasn't), it could have been completely avoided. In similar episodes such as "Moon Dance", "Mixed Doubles" and "First Date", Daphne is as oblivious as ever, but in this one, she seems completely ready to jump in. The whole thing is forgotten completely by the next episode. The episode "Hot Pursuit" has Frasier and Roz forced to share a hotel room together and they both get quite drunk and flirty and just as they're about to kiss, Kenny comes in and asks to share their room as well. Like Niles and Daphne, Frasier and Roz do eventually end up in bed together, though it almost destroys their friendship. |

The Little Mermaid (1989): Multiple: Ariel has to achieve a True Love's Kiss with the prince in order to win her bet with Ursula and not get turned into Ursula's prisoner. Ariel and the prince have a very romantic ride on a boat, and are about to kiss... When the two eels who are working for Ursula overturn the boat, so as to keep Ariel from winning the bet. And when Ariel is reunited with him on the third day, she and Eric are just about to kiss when the sun sets — which was the time limit Ursula had decreed, so the smooch is interrupted by her changing back into a mermaid... |

In Life and Death: Twilight Reimagined, Beau describes Edythe as a magnet and himself as a helpless piece of metal. Several times, he unthinkingly leans in to kiss her, but Edythe backs away every time. | |

Constantine (2005): This occurs three times between the title character and Angela Dodson. (1) When he's putting the protective amulet around her neck, (2) When he pulls the knife out of the floor after rescuing her, and (3) during the rooftop meeting while handing her the Spear of Destiny. Notably enraging because even after the tension has become thick enough to cut with a chainsaw, they never actually kiss. This one may not completely count but it comes very close: When Angela is about to take her first plunge into hell, she asks Constantine if she must take off any more clothes and he just stares, which leads to this exchange. |

The 1996 Broadway revival of The King and I (starring Donna Murphy and Lou Diamond Phillips) added this between Anna and the King following "Shall We Dance?", just before the Mood Whiplash of Tuptim's capture. | |

Full Metal Panic!: Kaname helps Sousuke out of a pond he was just pushed into. Upon realizing he's about to literally stumble into an Accidental Kiss with her, puckers up, she closes her eyes, leans into it, and... finds herself sorely disappointed when Sousuke simply stables himself on his own and cluelessly asks why she's making that face. Kaname almost kisses Sôsuke while he is asleep (after she finishes cutting his hair), and she has a hard time resisting planting one on him. However, she restrains herself knowing it would be wrong to take advantage of him in his sleep, and instead dunks his head in water. |

In Downton Abbey, Sybil and Branson many times through season 2, possibly in the last episode of season 1, too. Mr. Bates and Anna quite a few times towards the end of the first season, as well. | |

In the final episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation, Worf and Troi are about to kiss before they're interrupted by an agitated Captain Picard, who's convinced he's moving back and forth in time. Later Picard kisses Beverly Crusher and you'd expect one of these time jumps to interrupt events, but this doesn't happen because it's meant as foreshadowing; when Picard jumps into the future, it's revealed he married (and later divorced) Beverly, whereas Worf never got together with Troi because her previous relationship with Riker got in the way. | |
