A character appears to be meditating, perfectly still, sitting legs crossed, and... snoring? Oh, guess they weren't meditating after all, but sleeping. A common trick of the not-so-spiritual fake guru or lazy student. Alternatively, they might have fallen asleep by accident, which actually happens in real life fairly often. This is difficult to happen in real life given that most meditative traditions have measures for it — postures like the Lotus Position are specifically designed to prevent the meditator from falling asleep by being comfortable enough to relax but still uncomfortable enough that they stay awake — not to mention, as a general rule, if you fall asleep, you were meditating wrong. It is not always enough, however, as many a novice can attest. |

In the DEATH BATTLE! episode "Naruto Uzumaki vs. Ichigo Kurosaki", the battle animation begins with Ichigo coming upon Naruto, who is sitting under a waterfall in the lotus position, looking as though he's meditating. Kurama warns him he senses a presence... and then Naruto's head tips forward as he lets out a particularly loud snore. | |

A really dark variation appears in One Foot in the Grave: Victor and Margaret attend a yoga session, where the instructor teaches everyone to relax, sitting in the lotus position. After a while, she falls silent... then suddenly flops to the floor dead. Supposedly, she'd relaxed so much that her heart stopped beating entirely. | |

Cooro falls asleep and Senri completely zones out, leaving Nana the only one who's actually trying (and even then, she keeps getting distracted). | |

Granblue Fantasy: When the party first encounters Narmaya, she has fallen asleep in the midst of meditating — her profile lists meditation as a dislike because this seems to happen often for her. This was even worked into Granblue Fantasy Versus, where her intro animation on the Player 1 side shows her asleep in a meditative pose, waking up only when the Player 2 character addresses her. | |
