Like its source inspiration, Hoshin Engi has Dakki killing Hakuyuko, turning him into hamburgers, and serving it to his father Sho Ki. Just like in the novel, he feigns ignorance despite being (somehow, as he's not a seer in this version) conscious of the nature of the meat. This trauma deprives him of appetite so much that he starves himself and eventually dies from it. | |

The Punisher MAX: Psycho for Hire Barracuda recounts how an African warlord once killed his brother and had him cooked up to test his mercenaries' reactions. They all started vomiting as soon as they learned what they were eating... except Barracuda, who asked for seconds. A Triad leader is unimpressed with Nicky Cavella's threats (he keeps eating during the meeting), saying he has three grown sons to take over the business even if Nicky has him killed. Nicky tells him he's eating one of them, before gunning down the other two standing behind him. |

A Song of Ice and Fire: The legendary Rat Cook is said to have served a prince to his father, over an unknown slight by the King. What is considered to be the worst part of this was not his murder of the prince or the fact that he made the King an unwitting cannibal, but his violation of Sacred Hospitality by killing a guest beneath his roof. For this crime, the gods turned him into a massive white rat cursed with eternal hunger, but only able to eat his own young. It is said that all the rats that roam the Nightfort are his descendants. In more recent times, it is implied that Lord Wyman Manderly served Symond, Rhaegar, and Jared Frey as meat pies at the wedding of Ramsay Bolton. They were eaten by their relatives (who were attended because of the family's alliance to the Boltons), including Symond's brother, niece, and nephew as well as Rhaegar's father. |

The Histories of Herodotus have some of the oldest examples, with at least two instances involving the Medes. Of these, the more famous comes from Herodotus' (completely fictional, by the way, though Herodotus probably didn't invent it himself) Origin Story for Cyrus the Great. To summarize considerably, Cyrus' maternal grandfather, King Astyages of the Medes, had ordered one of his generals, Harpagus, to kill the newborn Cyrus (as he had had an omen that Cyrus would supplant or overthrow him). Harpagus didn't have the heart, and long story short Astyages finds out ten years later that Cyrus is still alive. This was Harpagus' punishment for his failure (from A.D. Godley's 1920 translation): | |

Zoey Punches the Future in the Dick: Subverted. Titus Chobb heavily implies the meal he has served Zoey, an unidentifiable cooked meat, is her mother, until Zoey's mother enters from the next room, perfectly fine. A few pages later, Chobb implies that the meal is actually his own son, Marti, until Marti similarly enters alive and well. It's clear by this point that Chobb is simply being a troll, and an exasperated Zoey refuses to rise to the bait when Chobb tries it a third time. | |

CSI: In "Last Supper", the murderer cuts up the Victim of the Week, cooks him, and serves him to the contestants on a cooking show as a palate test. The victim had raped and murdered her sister together with his 'frat brother', who is one of the contestants. The butchering and cooking scene is an obvious tip of the hat to Titus Andronicus. | |

Fengshen Yanyi has a subversion, when Lord Ji Fa is ordered to consume meatballs by the tyrant King Zhou, which is made from the flesh of his son. Ji Fa is aware of the ingredients, but in order to pretend he's oblivious to Zhou's tyranny, he consumes the meatballs anyways. When he finally returns home, he regurgitates blobs of flesh on the ground that transform into rabbits, highly implied to be his son Bo Yikao's remains. | |

South Park: In the infamous episode "Scott Tenorman Must Die", Cartman kills Scott's parents, cooks them into chili and tricks him into eating it, mocking him in an homage of Titus Andronicus. (Although Titus didn't have the members of Radiohead on hand to call the unfortunate victim a pussy.) The whole affair takes on a whole new layer during the events of "200" and "201" when a vengeful Scott returns with an army of radicalized Gingers and forces the townsfolk to answer the long-standing question of the identity of Cartman's father in front of his hated enemy. It's revealed that, rather than Ms. Cartman being a hermaphrodite as was the original explanation, she had a drunken one-night-stand with Jack Tenorman, Scott's father and a member of the Denver Broncos at the time, and gave birth to Eric but never told him. The town also collectively agreed to keep it hush-hush so that the good season the Broncos had back then wouldn't be ruined. That unfortunately means that when Cartman served Scott that chili, he was feeding the chopped-up remains of his own father to his half-brother. In typical Cartman fashion, he's more upset that he's genetically half-Ginger than the fact he unknowingly killed his own father. Being reminded that he's also technically half-Denver Bronco cheers him up though. |
