Romantic/sexual relationships between cousins (meaning, generally, first cousins — as in, two people who share a grandparent) are a phenomenon that has been more accepted in some cultures and eras than others. A great many cultures today accept it, including a majority of the industrialized world. Marrying one's extended relatives (which is technically known as clan endogamy) seems to have been common in human evolutionary history, since hominids usually lived in small nomadic bands with few available sexual partners. At the other end of the spectrum, much of the modern U.S.A. considers cousin marriage completely taboo, so much so that Hilarity Ensues at the very mention of it. People from backwoods areas (especially the Appalachian Mountains) are often the preferred butt of many bad jokes as well as occasional bits of Self-Deprecation for the alleged prevalence of Kissing Cousins in their culture. Despite the taboo, cousin marriages are legal in about half the states in the U.S.A., though not as much in the backwoods areas and more in the modern industrialized states: the opposite of what one might expect from hearing all those jokes.note Cue more joking that the backwoods states are the only ones where it happens enough to be worth banning. Legal or not, these marriages are still not very common due to the lingering cultural taboo. All U.S. states permit marriages between secondnote Though a few states, Kentucky being one, ban marriage between "double second cousins"—i.e., those who share a great-grandparent on both their mother's and father's sides of the family tree. and third cousins, but even these are looked at funny. In the UK, first cousin marriage is uncommon and would be regarded as rather odd, but it doesn't carry as much stigma as in the U.S., while second cousin marriages and beyond would be seen as unremarkable. In several other western countries, especially the ones that are majority Catholic, first cousins marriages were common and usually not considered a taboo; although it's starting to become more looked-down-upon in the modern age due to globalization and the importation of U.S. culture, as well as greater awareness of the risk of genetic problems, such marriages are still quite common in rural areas. First cousin marriage is also considered acceptable in Japan, South India (states of Tamil Nadu, Kerala, Andhra Pradesh and Karnataka) and the Middle East. Definitions of exactly what degree of cousin was considered incest actually changed over the centuries. The Romans and early medieval Europe considered first and second cousin marriage to be incest, but third cousin marriage was permissible. After the Germanic migrations Europe had to juggle a couple of different definitions of incest (which were often used as a convenient way to annul political marriages in a time and place where divorce was nigh impossible), until 1215 when a church council officially redefined that anything up to third cousin marriage would be considered incest, but not fourth degree or more. Nonetheless the definition continued to fluctuate over time, until by the 20th century even first cousin marriage wasn't considered incest in much of Europe. Expect some strong Values Dissonance between the media from the US and other countries, and between certain modern works and works from the nineteenth century and earlier, when the taboo was sometimes non-existent or even inverted. Scholars still vigorously debate the question of why some cultures forbid cousin marriage while others permit or encourage it, but that's beyond the scope of this wiki. According to both Oxford and Merriam-Webster's Dictionaries, the original definition of kissing cousins was simply a relative known well enough to be given a kiss in greeting, although this meaning has long since fallen by the wayside. Check out Incest Is Relative for more closely related tropes. Note: This trope is for cases of actual relationships between cousins. Cousincestuous subtext goes in Incest Subtext. noreallife |

Soul Calibur VI provides deeper backstory to Hilde (Princess Hildegard von Krone) in her Soul Chronicle, revealing that her father (the king) and his brother had pledged their children the cousins Hilde and Wilhelm to each other. The pair grew up as friends, rivals, and battlefield allies, and their bond was more tested by the King's descent into madness than by any taboo about Royal Inbreeding. | |

Fumi from Sweet Blue Flowers has an unrequited crush on her cousin Chizu. She notes that, even if Chizu wasn't engaged, it wouldn't work out between them because they're cousins and because Chizu is a girl. It's worth mentioning too that Fumi and Chizu actually had a sexual relationship, with Chizu's engagement to a man signalling their break-up. It's later implied by Chizu to have not been so unrequited after all, as she cries to Fumi about how "We're girls... and cousins... so I can't be that kind of girl." | |

Heralds of Valdemar: Owlsight has a brief relationship between Darian and (adoptive) double first cousin Summerdance. The Last Herald-Mage Trilogy has Treven and Jisa, grandson and great-granddaughter of Queen Elspeth the Peacemaker, married in secret before inheriting the throne from Jisa's father Randale. They are actually not blood cousins since Randale was infertile and turned to Herald Vanyel instead, but this is not widely known. It caused brief controversy in court before everyone became resigned to it; given that both Elspeth and Randale made serious use of Altar Diplomacy it may be they objected at least as much to the marriage as the relationship itself. In the Mage Winds books, Firesong boasts of being a descendant of Vanyel on "both sides". Vanyel had sired a pair of twins for the Tayledras. Seven hundred years later, and given what an insular population the Tayledras are, it's not surprising that his bloodline crossed itself a few times. |

In Sonic the Hedgehog (Archie Comics), Knuckles the Echidna and his girlfriend Julie-Su are actually distant cousins, but neither one is aware of it, and it's not directly acknowledged anywhere in the series. They did, however, release a family tree at one point,◊ forgetting that their family tree closes back in on itself. | |

Bleach: Pure-blood Quincies are expected to accept endogamous Arranged Marriages to prevent contamination of bloodlines even if it means marrying cousins. The Ishida matriarch engaged her son Ryuuken to his cousin when they were both teenagers. Ryuuken and Masaki cared about each other as family but were reluctant to marry because they knew they were romantically ill-matched. Not only was Ryuuken not Masaki's type, but he was also more attached to Kanae than he was allowed to be. | |

Masahiko and Shion from Family Compo are cousins and there's often a sense of attraction between the two. The manga starts with Masahiko saying Shion is cute before he learns she's his cousin. Oddly the series keeps on swaying between Masahiko being Sora's and Yukari's parent figures, and likewise whether Shion and Masahiko are Like Brother and Sister or are attracted to one another. | |

Harry Potter and the Lack of Lamb Sauce: It's briefly mentioned that Amycus and Alecto Carrow's father married his cousin when he was 16. Later in the story, there were government-enforced plans for an Arranged Marriage between a pair of first-cousins-once-removed, but considering the girl in question is 17 while involuntarily betrothed to her mother's cousin, who's more than twice her age, her mother is understandably outraged by this arrangement. | |

Sub-Mariner: The ultimate desire of Namora has been shown to be her cousin Namor. Namor's late wife Dorma was also his cousin, and Namorita (daughter/clone of Namora, and therefore cousin of Namor) was in love with Namor at one point, though it was unrequited. | |

Crawford Starrick and Pearl Attaway are cousins as well as business partners and members of the Templar Order in Assassin's Creed Syndicate. Dialogue between them indicates they have a long history together; having apparently been childhood sweethearts, Crawford once asked Pearl to marry him and was deeply disappointed when she refused his proposal, as well as being clearly grief-stricken after she is assassinated by Jacob Frye (as one of his minions unfortunately learns). | |

Hugo and Alice in The Vicar of Dibley are second cousins once removed, as Alice is the result of a one-night-stand her mother had with a cousin of Hugo's grandfather. Since said relative shared Hugo's father's name, the vicar was extremely relieved to get this clarified. | |

While he's joking for the most part, Umineko: When They Cry's Battler Ushiromiya is not averse to playing grab-ass with his first cousin Jessica. As for more serious cousin-cousin relationships, the second half of the story reveals that Sayo Yasuda (who is implied and later confirmed to be Shannon, Kanon, and Beatrice) is involved with as many as three of his/her cousins. Who are also his/her niece/nephews (since Kinz� is both Sayo's father and grandfather). As it turns out, this is a large part of Sayo's issues, since finding out that s/he's actually related to his/her love interests makes him/her think of him/herself as disgusting and no better than Kinzo. | |

The Simpsons: Apparently the motivation for the founding of Shelbyville was a disagreement between Jebediah Springfield and Shelbyville Manhattan over whether to legalize cousin marriage. At one point Bart escapes a bunch of Shelbyville kids by pointing and shouting "Look! Somebody's attractive cousin!" Luann, Kirk and Milhouse all look so similar that Bart once asked Luann and Kirk if they are siblings. In the season 26 episode "Let's Go Fly a Coot", Milhouse tells Bart that his parents are actually cousins. They were born in Shelbyville and this follows Shelbyville custom, as the town was founded by early dissenting Springfielders who wanted to inbreed. The Simpsons Uncensored Family Album has Homer Simpson's detailed family tree depicting second cousins Amos Graycomb and Moselle Stemple marrying and having four children together. |

In Ceres, Celestial Legend, Kagami claims that there's been a lot of this in the Mikage family line, although it's worth mentioning the context seriously calls his credibility into question: he's trying to provoke Ceres into emerging from his cousin Aya by coming on to her, taunting her with this claim, and attempting (or at least pretending to attempt) to rape her. | |

Rock Lee's Springtime of Youth: Neji is implied to have more than just familial affection for Hinata, because there is a scene where he imagines the story of Romeo and Juliet, in which he casts himself as Romeo and Hinata as Juliet. In his fantasy, they're called Nejio and Hinaette and look at one another with sparkles in their eyes, before they run towards each other and embrace lovingly. In the same series, he gets so angry when he hears about Hinata trying to date Naruto, that he attacks Hinata in fury, and it's not just the big brother instinct anymore, but plain jealousy. Bear in mind that their fathers were identical twins, meaning that Neji and Hinata share 25% of their genes (meaning they are genetic half-siblings), as opposed to the 12.5% that would normally be the case for first cousins. There is also chapter 20, where Neji gets a severe nosebleed when he hears about Hinata's breasts getting even bigger than they already were. Lee's comments about how freakishly similar all the Hyugas look to each other, even by family standards, might also be hinting at just how close the Hyugas are. Neji also acts like a pervert towards the female characters in the alternate universe Naruto the Movie: Road to Ninja, including Hinata. He acts like this especially towards Hinata. In Canon, Neji remarked to his father that Hinata was cute when they first met as children. |

In X-Wing Rogue Squadron, Plourr Illo was engaged to her cousin since childhood. In the arc where she returns to her homeworld and takes up the reins, she's shown resisting the idea of marrying him, but since he shows a number of her traits—lots of courage, love of fighting and freedom, disdain for tradition for tradition's sake and even being a fighter pilot like her—she warms up to him. It's never shown whether they actually get married at some point. And their being cousins never seemed to bother Plourr, it was only the "arranged marriage to an aristocrat she hadn't seen in 20 years" part that was a problem. | |

Neji also acts like a pervert towards the female characters in the alternate universe Naruto the Movie: Road to Ninja, including Hinata. He acts like this especially towards Hinata. In Canon, Neji remarked to his father that Hinata was cute when they first met as children. Karin showed some interest in Naruto at one point. Consider the fact that they're both from the Uzumaki clan. Her attraction to Sasuke is also this to a lesser degree, since the Uzumaki and Uchiha are genetically related, however distantly. The First Hokage, Hashirama Senju might do this when he married Mito Uzumaki, as the Uzumaki are an offshoot of the Senju. Such practice is not unusual; the two clans tend to trade marriage partners to maintain their ancestral connection. On top of that, the arrangement allowed Hashirama to keep an eye on Kurama, who was sealed within Mito. However, their exact relatedness is not stated. Then, of course, the final arc reveals that the Hyuga are related to the Senju, Uzumaki, and Uchiha. Naruto ends up marrying Hinata. Though since their (known) most recent common ancestor lived hundreds of years ago, it doesn't pose much of a problem. |

They're second cousins, so it's legal but still raises eyebrows. Averted with Faror Hend and Spinnock Durav. They're first cousins, and Faror Hend's attraction to Spinnock is so obvious even her commander has to tell her to restrain herself, while Spinnock is completely clueless. |

Harry Potter: It's implied that purebloodism leads to frequent inbreeding. Arthur and Sirius explicitly state that all surviving pureblood wizards are related to some degree. Particularly after the wholesale slaughter of the second Death Eater war, there are simply so few purebloods left that those who still care about blood purity will have no alternative but to marry their cousins. Essentially if a pure or half-blood wizard marries someone who isn't Muggle-born, they're going to be related in some way — however distantly. Sirius and Regulus Black's parents, Orion and Walburga, were second cousins. Walburga already had the surname Black even before she married. Teddy Lupin and Victoire Weasley are fourth cousins once removed. Molly and Arthur Weasley were popularly thought to be this, as a certain Ignatius Prewett married Lucretia Black, who was Arthur's second cousin. However, Lucretia was Molly's aunt by marriage, not her mother. For a long time, Harry and Ginny were strongly implied to be third cousins through the House of Black, until new information Jossed the theory by making Harry's paternal grandfather unrelated to the Blacks. After Tonks's Patronus takes a canine form, Harry wonders if she had been in love with Sirius, her cousin once removed since he was an Animagus who turned into a dog. It turned out to be Lupin, a werewolf, however. The Gaunt family is described as "An ancient, in-bred, pure-blood wizarding family living in slovenly conditions in a shack in Little Hangleton." This is supposedly the main cause of poor Merope's "cross-eyed" appearance, and a streak of mental instability, such as with Morfin Gaunt. Although in this case, it's quite strongly implied that the Gaunts have gone much further than this trope to keep the bloodline "pure". Interestingly, as a case of Pragmatic Villainy, while the Malfoys are Fantastic Racists, they avoid first-cousin marriage—explicitly because they've seen how this drove several other pureblood families insane. Granted, there are so few pureblood families that they still end up marrying third-degree cousins, etc. at times, but they try not to be stupid about it. Sometimes they'll even marry half-bloods rather than a first cousin. |

Arrested Development had a recurring storyline about George-Michael's crush on his cousin Maeby, who are revealed to be first cousins by adoption, then later revealed to be second cousins once removed by blood). Furthermore, when these feelings become mutual, Maeby tries to hide from them by dating a boy from her school, who turns out to also be her cousin. ( Though also first cousins by adoption, then revealed as second cousins once removed by blood.) This was mirrored in two storylines in the final season. The first saw Michael Bluth (played by Jason Bateman) thinking that a prostitute was his long-lost sister and hiring her to work at the company; she thought this was a Pretty Woman situation and started coming on to him. (The prostitute was played by Justine Bateman, who is Jason Bateman's real-life sister.) Then, in the third season finale it was revealed that Lindsay was adopted and was not actually Michael's biological sister. Upon finding out, she decided to act on a crush she had had for years. Then in the fifth season finale it was revealed that Lindsay is Lucille's half-sister. Additionally, Michael ended up going out with a woman who, unbeknownst to him, suffered from mental retardation as a result of her parents being cousins. It was a lot funnier and less creepy than this sounds. | |

In The Mists of Avalon, Morgaine and Lancelet. In the myths they're unrelated and Morgaine's interest in him is one-sided. Lancelet also winds up having a threesome with his other cousin, Arthur, and his wife Gwenhwyfar. | |

In ½ Prince, Rose kisses Prince in the game. Eventually, it's revealed that Rose's player is actually her cousin. And by cousin, it's meant that she's her mother's older sister's husband's uncle's third daughter. | |

Angel Densetsu subverts this in a Flashback arc that details how Kitano's parents met. Midori is involved with her cousin and childhood friend, Chuji, who has a one-sided rivalry/obsession with Ryuichiro and is most definitely Ax-Crazy. She insists that Chuji isn't evil, and asks Ryuichiro to defeat him in order to open his eyes. That really won't work, since he is evil now, and even considers Midori as just another easy girl. After he tells Ryuichiro this, Ryuichiro angrily lays him out in one attack, after being repeatedly struck with bronze knuckles and shrugging them off. Midori overhears and realizes the truth, culminating in the more heartwarming relationship between her and Ryuchiro. | |

The romance between Heather Mason and Vincent Cooper in Silent Hill: Revelation 3D. In the first Silent Hill film, Heather's biological mother Dahlia was the sister of the villain Christabella. In Revelation 3D, Vincent is the son of the villain Claudia, who is Christabella's sister. Therefore, Dahlia and Claudia are also probably sisters and Heather and Vincent are probably cousins. It could be possible, however, that Dahlia and Claudia could be unrelated if one was a maternal half-sibling (uterine) and the other was a paternal half-sibling (agnate/cosanguine). It's likely, however, that the writer of the second film missed the fact that Dahlia and Christabella were sisters in the first film. It's not the only Retcon. | |

In the Kushiel's Legacy series by Jacqueline Carey, distant royal cousins (his father is her great-grandfather's brother) Imriel and Sidonie fall for each other. Hard. However, their relatives (and the nation at large) aren't so much annoyed at the idea of relatives marrying as they are annoyed that Imriel's mother tried to take over the kingdom (twice, orchestrating an invasion the first time around) and at least some of the populace (mostly the ones still healing the scars from the invasion) thinks Imriel would do the same. | |

Riverdale: The big twist in season 1 is that Polly Cooper and Jason Blossom, the Star-Crossed Lovers, are third cousins. They share a pair of great-great-grandparents, as Polly's great-grandfather was a brother of Jason's great-grandfather. The former was born Blossom, but changed his surname to Cooper after a dispute. | |

King of the Hill had an episode where Bill visited his family in New Orleans, only for his beautiful relatives Lily, Rose, and Violetta to start throwing themselves at him. He knows that one is his blood cousin while the others are his male cousins' widows, but doesn't know which is which. When the girls' feuding erupts into a straight-up Cat Fight, their flamboyant cousin Gilbert interrupts to reveal that Violetta is the blood relative. When the Hills return to pick Bill up, Peggy asks how his weekend was and he cheerfully declares "Both of 'em!" | |

Thankfully for Sophie, who hates Yaropolk, her mother doesn't agree to it when Oleg writes her about it and she's betrothed to King Valdemar instead. | |

Tolkien's Legendarium: The Fall of Gondolin: The Elf Maeglin was in love with his first cousin Idril Celebrindal, who is squicked by this, for "the Eldar wedded not with kin so near, nor ever before had any desired to do so." The Silmarillion: Ar-Pharazôn, the last King of Númenor, married his first cousin, Tar-MÃriel, against her will. It is claimed Numenorean laws prohibited any marriage closer than second cousins. The Fall of Númenor: Queen Ancalimë and her husband Hallacar are distant cousins, sharing a great-great-grandfather (Vardamir, second King of Númenor). Though, their marriage was mostly political, and their relationship was pretty toxic. The Lord of the Rings: Aragorn and Arwen are first cousins sixty-seven and seventy-four times removed, as Arwen's uncle also happens to be an ancestor of Aragorn's many, many generations up the tree. Here's a family tree to help you keep it all straight. Galadriel and Celeborn are second cousins — Galadriel's maternal grandfather and Celeborn's paternal grandfather were brothers. Sam Gamgee and his wife Rosie Cotton are third cousins. Sam's great-grandmother Rowan was the older sister of Rosie's great-grandmother Rose. Merry Brandybuck's parents Saradoc and Esmeralda are second cousins. Saradoc's grandmother Mirabella and Esmeralda's grandfather Hildigrim were siblings (both children of Gerontius Took and Adamanta Chubb). Merry marries his third cousin Estella Bolger, who is the great-granddaughter of Hildibrand Took, another of Gerontius and Adamanta's many children. Frodo's parents, Drogo Baggins and Primula Brandybuck, are cousins by marriage, making them both cousins with Bilbo and therefore making Frodo Bilbo's cousin twice over, as old Gaffer Gamgee explains: |

MAD In their parody of Return of the Jedi, the characters discover at the end that they're all related to one another, but since Han and Leia are "only" second cousins, they can safely marry. In one Monroe comic, the eponymous teen was visited by his punky Scottish cousin, and they made out a few times. She decided she didn't want to see him anymore because he was freaky with his "finger-skateboards", but as he said, at least he got to "make oot" that summer. |

In Reborn to Master the Blade, everyone but Inglis herself (due to being an old man reincarnated into a female body) is all for her marrying her older cousin, Rafael. The most prominent supporter is her younger cousin and Rafael's younger sister, Rafinha, as she wants to stay with Inglis forever and doesn't want anything or anyone tearing them apart. But their fathers are also all for the union, saying that if anyone could get Rafael to consider marriage, it would be Inglis. | |

It is possible to make Roy and Lilina from Fire Emblem: The Binding Blade cousins... by pairing Eliwood with the Pegasus Knight Fiora and Hector with either of Fiora's youngest sisters Florina or Farina in prequel Fire Emblem: The Blazing Blade. Since The Blazing Blade was not released yet at the time of The Binding Blade's own release (and the pairings involved exist among other possible pairings), the latter never makes any mention of this possibility. | |

In the novel Middlesex, the protagonist's parents were second cousins that eventually fell in love, but what they didn't know was that the father's parents were actually brother and sister, resulting in a rare recessive gene to make their child Calliope (later Cal) born intersexed. | |

Fire Emblem Fates allows the players to do something similar to Fire Emblem: Awakening if they have the children of siblings marry. There are also two "set" pairs of cousins in the game, one of which can avert this or not, one of which plays it straight. The first set are Asugi, the son of the Ninja Saizo, and Midori, the daughter of Saizo's younger brother Kaze. However, while they can reach an S-support, in the localization it ends with them as Just Friends, making them either an aversion or a straight example depending on the version itself. The second set are the Male Avatar and his Implied Love Interest Azura—their mothers Mikoto and Arete were sisters. The twist is they don't know they're cousins, and they don't find out until quite late in the Golden Path—a mere 3 chapters from Final Boss which is more than late enough for the player to easily have S-supported Corrin and Azura (and note, only the Golden Path, meaning in the other two they never find out). Even after they learn the truth, though, their S-support is explicitly romantic, making them the straight example. Of course, if they don't marry each other, it's possible for their respective children, who would be second cousins, to marry each other. And if the Avatar marries any of Azura's children, he/she'll end up marrying his/her first cousin once removed. It's also possible to pull off other couples like this depending on how the player pairs up the royal sisters. If Hinoka, Sakura, Camilla, or Elise marry any of the men who have daughters, the player can then hook these second-gen girls up with Shiro or Kiragi (for Hinoka and Sakura), or Siegbert or Forrest (for Camilla and Elise). For example, a Caeldori mothered by Hinoka is still perfectly capable of marrying her cousin Shiro. |

In A Brother's Price, Jerin Whistler and Princess Rennsellaer find, after downgrading his virginity status to technical levels, that they share great-great-grandmothers making them third cousins. Ren declares that it is distant enough for the relation to be fine and, indeed, that's how it's seen. At another point in the story, the adult princesses discuss their first cousin (son of their father's biological sister) Cullen as a potential husband. They collectively agree that while he'd be a good husband on his own merits, the biological relationship is just too close to be acceptable. | |

("Isn't she your cousin?" "Step-cousin." Of course, even that falls apart in Alternate Universes where Phineas and Vanessa are half-siblings.)

It should be noted that in The Sims 2 and The Sims 3, the game does not even allow the option for first cousins to be married. (A certain cheat will allow them to have offspring if the player so chooses). However, more distantly related Sims have the ability to seek romantic interactions with one another (probably because the family tree in the game does not recognize first cousins once removed and beyond, or great-grandparents for that matter). | |

Neji is implied to have more than just familial affection for Hinata, because there is a scene where he imagines the story of Romeo and Juliet, in which he casts himself as Romeo and Hinata as Juliet. In his fantasy, they're called Nejio and Hinaette and look at one another with sparkles in their eyes, before they run towards each other and embrace lovingly. In the same series, he gets so angry when he hears about Hinata trying to date Naruto, that he attacks Hinata in fury, and it's not just the big brother instinct anymore, but plain jealousy. Bear in mind that their fathers were identical twins, meaning that Neji and Hinata share 25% of their genes (meaning they are genetic half-siblings), as opposed to the 12.5% that would normally be the case for first cousins. | |

Here's a family tree to help you keep it all straight. Galadriel and Celeborn are second cousins — Galadriel's maternal grandfather and Celeborn's paternal grandfather were brothers. Sam Gamgee and his wife Rosie Cotton are third cousins. Sam's great-grandmother Rowan was the older sister of Rosie's great-grandmother Rose. |

The Last Herald-Mage Trilogy has Treven and Jisa, grandson and great-granddaughter of Queen Elspeth the Peacemaker, married in secret before inheriting the throne from Jisa's father Randale. They are actually not blood cousins since Randale was infertile and turned to Herald Vanyel instead, but this is not widely known. It caused brief controversy in court before everyone became resigned to it; given that both Elspeth and Randale made serious use of Altar Diplomacy it may be they objected at least as much to the marriage as the relationship itself. | |

In Season 6 of New Girl, Jess begins a relationship with Cece’s one-time boyfriend, Robbie. They date for about half the season, until Episode 14, “The Hike�. While out hiking, a rainstorm leads them to take refuge in a cave, during which time they take turns telling childhood stories. Quickly, this goes awry as they realize they both have stories involving the same family reunion, and they figure out that they’re third cousins. Needless to say, they're both very relieved they never did anything more than kissing. | |

Cardcaptor Sakura: Syaoran's anime-exclusive cousin Meiling has a big crush on him and insists they're engaged because of a Childhood Marriage Promise. Tomoyo has a crush on Sakura who is revealed to be her second cousin. In a case of Generation Xerox, Tomoyo's mother also had a crush on Sakura's mother and they were first cousins. When Nelvana Macekred the anime into Cardcaptors, they made two of Sakura's classmates who were clearly fond of each other, with a snarky, cute relationship, into cousins. Whereas they removed the fact that Meiling and Syaoran were cousins by changing Meiling's surname to Rae. |

Other than gods, the Magnus Chase and the Gods of Asgard series has Sam being betrothed to Amir, who is explicitly stated to be a relative on the mortal side. They are both descended from the Real Life 10th-century traveler Ahmad ibn Fadlan, but whether there are closer shared ancestors is unknown. Cousin marriage (or at least marriage between close families) is actually a common practice in the Arab world, not only to strengthen alliances (the Arabs being traditionally a clannish society) but also to keep inheritance in-family. | |

Superman: Clark Kent's daughter engages in a literal example◊ in a story taking place in an alternate future. (Lucy and Lois are sisters, which makes Lucy and Jimmy's son the cousin of Lois and Clark's daughter. Apparently, that doesn't bother Lola or Jimmy Jr, let alone their parents, happily watching them make out. The issue itself makes no mention of them being cousins, with the main obstacle to their happiness being It's Not You, It's My Enemies. They do live Happily Ever After in the end. The Man of Steel himself apparently had such feelings for his cousin Kara◊ (Supergirl). In that one, Supergirl tries to find Supes a girlfriend. After many failed attempts, we get a scene where it's obvious they are really attracted to each other, which seems to make it perfectly clear that the law is the only thing stopping them from pursuing a relationship. Eventually, Kara fixes Supes up with a girl that is nigh identical to herself, but older, and they hit it off. Unfortunately, it turns out yellow sun is her Kryptonite, and he can't leave Earth unprotected, so they must part. In Action Comics #260, Clark has Kara disguise herself as a superheroine from another dimension, and she and Supes proceed to have make-outs (in front of Lois), all to fool some dim alien invasion. And from Bronze Age storyline Krypton No More comes Superman walking out of the shower and finding his cousin waiting for him◊... and the writer seems completely unaware of the tone he is setting. In Supergirl: Candor, Kara is mind-controlled by evil telepath Saturn Queen into getting engaged to Ultraman, an evil Alternate Universe counterpart of Superman, but genetically it makes no difference. In Many Happy Returns, Pre-Crisis Supergirl and Superboy (Kon-El) are immediately smitten with one another, which an irritated Linda Danvers comments on. |

The Lion King: In The Lion King, Fridge Logic dictates that Simba and Nala must be either cousins or half-siblings because Scar and Mufasa are the only adult male lions in the pride. This is later defied in The Lion Guard where it's shown that Nala's dad is a random, unknown lion. The Lion King II: Simba's Pride defies this by specifically mentioning twice that Scar is not Kovu's father, though fans still speculate. Kovu was meant to be Scar's son but then they noticed that'd make Kiara and Kovu cousins once removed. Of course, this just raises the question of who Kovu's real father is, and why he looks so much like Scar. |

Case Closed: In one of the earlier cases, the killer's motive for killing his grandfather, etc. was because he fell in love with his cousin, and the older man forbids them from marrying. The killer's parents were also cousins, and the patriarch reluctantly agreed to their marriage. The series had already hinted that Mary Sera may or may not be Elena Miyano's sister, but Word of God stated during an interview in Singapore that Shuuichi Akai and Akemi Miyano were indeed cousins. Whether they were aware of that fact isn't clear, but they were dating before the latter died. |

In The Elder Scrolls series, the Altmer (High Elves) have a very endogamous society, believing that they can trace their ancestry back through the Aldmer, to the Ehlnofey, and through them, even to the et'Ada who created the mortal world. As such, they intermarry and heavily restrict visitors to their homeland to keep their genetics pure, to the point where they even cull children with "undesirable" traits. While their pure bloodline gives them highest natural magical aptitude of any race, it is theorized that the innate weakness to magicka they suffer is a result of this inbreeding. | |

A Song of Ice and Fire: Cousin marriage isn't considered incest in this setting, only parental incest and sibling incest are (and the latter is okay if you're a Targaryen), so there are several examples. The most prominent example is Tywin Lannister, who married his cousin Joanna. Tywin and Joanna's daughter Cersei is also sleeping with her cousin Lancel (her cousin on Tywin's side if you're curious). It becomes a plot point, thanks to how sensitive that information is—though not because he's her cousin, but because she's the king's widow, and how jealous her twincestuous brother is. Yeah, it kinda runs in their family... and has done for centuries: there are two main lines of Lannisters, the ruling family based in Casterly Rock and the cadet, Lannisport branch in charge of the harbour, customs and navy. They crisscross regularly. What? Do you really think the Rock could ever trust another House to run their trade hub? Ned Stark's parents Rickard and Lyarra were first cousins once removed, Lyarra being the daughter of Rickard's grandfather's brother (her surname was already "Stark" before she was married). Also found in the Tyrell family: Lord Mace Tyrell's mother is Olenna Redwyne, and Mace's sister Mina Tyrell married Olenna's nephew, Lord Paxter Redwyne—thus Paxter and Mina are first cousins. Jon Arryn's second wife, Rowena, was a cousin. Like Joanna Lannister and Lyarra Stark, her surname was already "Arryn" before she married. The Targaryens, due to their obsession with blood purity, would marry their siblings—or cousins if they did not have a sibling to marry. Around the Dance of the Dragons, the Targaryen intermarriages with each other and their relatives the Velaryons make for a very Tangled Family Tree (though maybe less inbred considering Rhaenyra's "Velaryon" children were more likely the result of an affair, though they all died without issue). Aegon the Conqueror's parents, Aerion Targaryen and Valaena Velaryon were cousins of some variety, as Valaena was herself a Targaryen on her mother's side. This meant that future Targaryen-Velaryon couplings were consanguineous to a degree. Aenys I, the son of Aegon the Conqueror and his second wife, Rhaenys, married his cousin Alyssa Velaryon due to not having a sister. Aemon I, the eldest son of King Jaehaerys I, was supposed to marry his older sister, Daenerys, when they came of age, but she died at 7 years old of an illness. While Jaehaerys considered marrying him to Alyssa, another sister, Queen Alysanne pointed out how Alyssa was more interested in her second son Baelon, who was closer to her in age. As such, they had Aemon wed to Jocelyn Baratheon, who was his half-aunt since her mother, the aforementioned Alyssa Velaryon, was also the mother of Jaehaerys and Alysanne. It did help that the two were only a year apart, and fell in love with each other quickly at a feast meant to celebrate Aemon becoming the Prince of Dragonstone (the title given to the heir to the Iron Throne). They married and had one daughter, Rhaenys, who would wed her second cousin Corlys Velaryon and whose bloodline would run through House Velaryon via her granddaughter Baela. Viserys I married Aemma Arryn, his first cousin. Aemma's mother, Daella, was another one of Jaehaerys I's daughters, and thus a sister of Baelon and Alyssa, Viserys' parents. After Aemma died, he was nearly wed to Laena Velaryon, his cousin Rhaenys' daughter, but balked at her being a little girl at the time, and decided to marry Alicent Hightower instead. After she came of age, Laena married Viserys' brother, Daemon. Viserys I's daughter Rhaenyra married her second cousin Laenor Velaryon (brother of the aforementioned Laena Velaryon). After Laenor died, she married her uncle Daemon and had three children with him, including Viserys II, from whom the current generation of Targaryens are descended. Following the Dance, Aegon III was married off to his cousin Jaehaera (daughter of Aegon II and Helaena, his mother Rhaenyra's half-siblings/his father Daemon's nephew and niece) to unite the Black and Green camps, though she died without issue. He then married Daenaera Velaryon, who was his fourth cousin once removed/fifth cousin.note Daenaera's great-great-great-grandfather Daemon Velaryon was the brother of Alyssa Velaryon, Aegon III's paternal great-great-grandmother/maternal great-great-great-grandmother. Baela Targaryen, Daemon and Laena's daughter, married Alyn Velaryon, who was ostensibly her first cousin as the bastard son of Laenor. Since Laenor was gay, however, it's likely that Alyn was actually fathered by Laenor's father, Corlys, making him Baela's uncle. Alyn also had an affair with Elaena Targaryen, Aegon III's daughter with Daenaera Velaryon. Daenaera's great-grandfather was Corlys' brother, making Elaena and Alyn second cousins twice removed or first cousins three times removed, depending on who you ask. Aegon IV and his first cousin Daena (his father, Viserys II, and her father, Aegon III, were brothers) had an affair and conceived Daemon Waters, later christened Blackfyre, the instigator of the titular Blackfyre Rebellions. One of Daemon's daughters, Calla, later married her uncle Aegor Rivers, Aegon IV's son with Barba Bracken. Aerys I was betrothed to his cousin Aelinor Penrose, though he showed no interest in her (or anyone else, really), preferring the company of books instead. Aerion Targaryen, son of Maekar I, married his first cousin Daenora, daughter of Maekar's older brother Rhaegel. Because the Baratheons are descended from Aegon the Conqueror's bastard half-brother, the bride and groom in any Targaryen-Baratheon marriage will at the very least be distant cousins. Aside from Aemon and Jocelyn, this was the case with King Robert's grandparents Ormund Baratheon and Rhaelle Targaryen, whose betrothal was arranged after Rhaelle's brother Duncan declined to marry the daughter of Lyonel Baratheon. Rhaegel Targaryen's marriage to Alys Arryn was the third Targaryen-Arryn coupling in history, following Viserys I and Aemma Arryn (Rhaegel's great-great-great-grandparents), and Daella Targaryen and Rodrik Arryn (Aemma's parents). Rhaegar Targaryen's marriage to Elia Martell was the third such union in history, following the Double In-Law Marriage between Daeron II and Myriah Martell (Rhaegar's ancestors) and Myriah's brother Maron and Daeron's sister Daenerys (Elia's ancestors). Elia's brother Doran later reveals that he planned to wed his daughter, Arianne, to Rhaegar's brother, Viserys, which would be the fourth union, and, when that failed, sent his son Quentyn to woo Rhaegar's and Viserys' sister, Daenerys (which also didn't work). Lord Wyman Manderly at one point suggests he or his second son Ser Wylis marry his cousin Lady Donella Hornwood, partially hoping to get her lands for sure, but also as an attempt to protect her because taking care of your own is something House Manderly actually cares about. House Bolton is, as a result, directly in their crosshairs thanks to how terribly Ramsay treated Donella when he forced her to marry him — then "let" her die alone. Implied with Princess Arianne Martell and her cousins, the Sand Snakes (her uncle Prince Oberyn's bastard daughters). Arianne offers to fight any other woman who is sleeping with her lover unless they are a Sand Snake, for she "loves her cousins well". She and one of the Snakes, Tyene, also tried to "share" their first partner, but it didn't quite pan out. |

In Antigone, the eponymous character is engaged to her cousin Haemon. Haemon's father Creon and Antigone's mother Jocasta are brother and sister. It's worth mentioning that he is also her first cousin once removed since Antigone's father is a son of Jocasta's. Coming from that family, marrying a cousin must've seemed positively conservative. It's also a reference to the Classical Athens law that dictated that brotherless single female heirs would marry a close relative (usually a cousin or an uncle) in order to keep inheritance within the family. | |

It's been mentioned in a Code Geass Sound Episode that Suzaku Kururugi was engaged to his cousin Kaguya Sumeragi when they were children. Kaguya later decides that she is married to Zero, Suzaku's mortal enemy. What makes it particularly funny is that Suzaku eventually becomes Zero, though it's not known if Kaguya knows that. | |

The Bible: In The Book of Tobit, it's not clear exactly how closely Tobias and Sarah are related, but their marriage is not only allowed but considered obligatory. Due to the nomadic, tribal lifestyles of the ancient Israelites, this is true throughout the Bible. Abraham sent a servant to find a wife for his son Isaac specifically from among his kin, rather than from among the Canaanites, and he returned with Abraham's great-niece Rebekah. Then Isaac's son Jacob married TWO of his cousins, the sisters Rachel and Leah, and also fathered children by their handmaidens. Also, because in the list of relatives and other people an Israelite man is not allowed to have sexual relations with, "cousin" is conspicuously absent. |

Note that cousins are not mentioned, hence why cousin marriage is permissable in Islam. | |

Several preexisting relationships in Fire Emblem: Genealogy of the Holy War's 2nd generation take on this form, and by selective pairing of characters in the first generation it is possible to make a vast number of such pairings. Two particularly noteworthy examples in the second generation are the predestined couples of Lana/Faval and Lester/Patty. Because their mothers Aideen and Briggid were identical twins, Intelligent Systems pulled off the impressive feat of doing this and Brother–Sister Incest at the same time. | |

In the 1993 film, Colin wants to marry his cousin Mary when they grow up so that they can always be together. Mary is amused but uninterested. Colin's response is a jealous loathing of Dickon, the servant boy who helps them in the titular garden, with whom he suspects Mary of falling in love. Their mothers are stated to be identical twins, thus making this even iffier genetically, since the offspring of identical twins are genetic half-siblings (assuming the other parents involved to not also be identical and to be two different people). | |

An interesting twist is found in Lady Clare. The titular earl's daughter is engaged to her cousin, Lord Ronald, much to the delight of her nursemaid… who promptly reveals that Clare is actually her own daughter, whom she substituted for the real Lady Clare, who died in infancy. Ronald, as the next male-line heir, ought to be inheriting everything that Clare's father left to her. Clare, horrified that Ronald would be "kept from his due" and married to a peasant, leaves the castle only to run into a bewildered Ronald. She explains everything, and he shrugs it off and says they'll marry anyway, "and you will still be Lady Clare." | |

Game of Thrones: In Season 2, while Jaime is captured by the Starks, Cersei ends up sleeping with her cousin Lancel. While cousin relationships are not uncommon in Westeros, the part that's disturbing is that he's a Replacement Goldfish for Jaime, who is her twin and the great love of her life. Like in the books, Tywin Lannister married his cousin Joanna, who died giving birth to Tyrion. The practical result is that her surname was already "Lannister" even before she married Tywin. In part, this also informs how much of a hypocrite Tywin is. He plans to force all three of his children to marry against their will to secure political alliances, demanding that they put the good of the family above their own personal happiness. Problem is, Tywin himself married for love—and not strategically, since marrying a first cousin meant he didn't secure a marriage alliance with another powerful Great House. Sansa's maternal aunt, Lysa Arryn tells her right after accusing her of sleeping with Littlefinger, that she can marry her son, Robin. Daenerys is actually Jon's biological aunt, but the two are the same age so when they get together it's similar to this. Things are further complicated by the fact that neither knew about their blood relationship at the time. When Jon finds out, he's disturbed and conflicted by the fact. He reveals their relationship to Daenerys, but she's less concerned about the incest than the fact that Jon has a better claim to the Iron Throne than her. Jon's father Rhaegar (Daenerys's much older brother) was the heir to the throne, and any of his legitimate children would come before her in the line of succession, thus threatening Daenerys's claim. Understandably, she's a bit suspicious regarding Jon's revelation as a result. |

Old Man Logan features a Bad Future where the Hulk and cousin She-Hulk have bred and produced inbred offspring. This is all due to her being the only woman able to "take the pace" of Hulk sexually. Hulk and She-Hulk are both radioactive, too, which probably doesn't help... It's not the first time the romantic/sexuality thing has been brought up between these two, as some of Fixit's dialogue with her implies he's more than game, but there's also some implication that in this case, it may not be consensual. | |

Rose's guardian, Uncle Alec, explicitly says that he does not approve of cousins marrying, but that he can't think of a better possible match for her; meanwhile her aunt Clara, Charlie's mother—overheard and tactlessly quoted by yet another cousin—holds that Rose should marry one of them "to keep the money in the family." After Charlie dies, Rose falls for Mac and marries him, while Archie and Phebe finally overcome the family veto to their relationship. As a bonus, Archie's 12-year-old brother Jamie gives Rose a love declaration at some point, which she rejects not because he's her cousin, but because she sees him as Just a Kid. | |

Of course, considering the fact that Epic Rap Battles of History also has real-life historical figures as some of their many characters, there's bound to be at least a few lines about them having a relationship with their cousin. | |

Tedd of El Goonish Shive averts this trope, being almost allergic to the idea of his "ugly cousin" Nanase as a sexual being at all. (Said cousin is, of course, scorchingly hot actually, as Tedd admits much later.) | |

World's End Harem: Fantasia: Main protagonist Arc and his original Love Interest Aurelia, whose Arranged Marriage to the prince of The Empire kickstarts the Myth Arc, are initially said to be cousins, in an already closely related group of noble families. Chapter 31 clarifies the Tangled Family Tree: The Patriarch Arges Isteshia, despite being referred to as Arc's grandfather, is in fact his maternal great-uncle (Arc's mother was Arges's niece), and Aurelia is his granddaughter. This makes Arc and Aurelia second cousins. | |

House of the Dragon: Very common in the Royal Inbreeding of the Targaryens if Brother–Sister Incest is unavailable. Daemon almost takes his niece Rhaenyra's maidenhood in a pleasure house, and later marries her either out of desire for her, or for the Iron Throne, or to restore the glory of their house, or all of the above. Viserys and his first wife Aemma are first cousins. Rhaenyra is betrothed to her second cousin Laenor. The politically-minded Rhaenyra notes that as far as arranged marriages go, she could do worse than a gay guy she grew up with, and proposes an open marriage. Daemon's second wife is his first cousin once-removed, Laena Velaryon. Her mother, Princess Rhaenys, is one of Daemon's first cousins. Rhaenyra tries to propose a marriage pact to her estranged stepmother and one-time friend Alicent by wedding Rhaenyra's son Jacaerys to Alicent's only daughter Helaena. While they're of a similar age, they are also aunt and nephew. |

In The Secret Life of Punzie, Rapunzel and Anna are cousins but are very much in a sexual relationship. This is often glossed over as not only is cousin-incest considered less risque than between siblings but because they are both women and therefore the stigma is less justified. | |

In the My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic fanfiction, Maternal Instinct, the Changeling royal family, the House of Roachanov, has a reputation for practicing royal intermarriage, much like the European monarchies of old, ironic as the culture is predominantly of Imperial Japan.

Child of the Storm touches on this a couple of times in regards to Harry and Jean Grey, his second cousin on his mother's side, who's about two and a half years older than he is. The author, who's British and therefore less fazed by such a relationship, included her as someone Harry might end up dating in a poll (naturally, he would Take a Third Option). When they meet, the two are immediately drawn to each other and are revealed to have a psychic connection that is theorised to possibly even date back to the womb. However, on Jean's side, the relationship is entirely platonic (she sees him as the little brother that she never had) while Harry's attitude is a little more complicated. Emotionally, he wants a big sister type figure. However, he's a straight Hormone-Addled Teenager, and Jean is gorgeous. Ultimately, emotions win, though he doesn't suddenly become blind to Jean's good looks, being rather embarrassed when he sees her in a skimpy bikini. Maddie is another kettle of fish entirely, for all that she's Jean's Separated at Birth twin sister and she has the same mental connection. When he sees her in a thin, skimpy nightie, he pays rather more attention than he did with Jean, trying not to stare. It's later noted in the sequel that a part of him thinks more than just cousinly thoughts about her. |

Between Failures offers a rather touching scene in which Reggie, not generally the most likable character in the cast, tells the story of “his first time� for a club initiation. The occasion proves to be a family wedding, the girl a cousin; his story is discreet to the point of allusion, and he dismisses accusations of “lack of detail� with an aloof put-down. | |

Superman: House of El: Kara and Kal, justified for a few reasons. For one, Kara manufactured herself the Kryptonian equivalent of an IUD, so there’s no risk. Two, since they're the last two Kryptonians in existence, if there are going to be any more they'll either have to use Fortress technology to either ensure they have healthy kids or Kara will have to use it to find a way to make Kryptonians and humans compatible. Three, they're the only ones who can teach each other to control their powers during sex so they won't harm their fragile human partners. Clark takes a little convincing, since Kara is his cousin by blood and sister by adoption, but he comes around, and they do enjoy their time together. | |

Saki from Snow Sakura is a slight deconstruction. She and her cousin Yuugi fall in love but their school's vice-principal decides to butt in because their relationship isn't socially accepted.

Played with in The Hunger Games. The Capitol does not approve of Katniss's close friendship with Gale, seeing him as a potential rival to Peeta, so they claim the two are cousins. This is plausible since they both have black hair, olive skin, and gray eyes, as typical of people from the Seam. In the third book, President Coin asks Katniss if she wants Gale declared as her new lover, which would make them this trope in the public's eye. Katniss declines. | |

Downplayed in Fruits Basket; while the cursed members of the Sohma family occasionally refer to each other as "cousins" or "relatives" and some of them have romantic feelings for each other, it's often implied that they're only very distantly related or not related at all (none of their parents are mentioned as being related). The Sohmas are a clan of 150 members, not simply a large family. The current generation of cursed Sohmas likely only call each other "cousins" out of formality and kinship. | |

Natsuki, the main character of Earthlings, is besotted with her cousin Yuu, and the two declare themselves "married" at age eleven. It's largely a result of both having been abused and unloved by their families; both felt the other was the only who fully understood and truly loved them. Things take a more disturbing turn when, after being molested by a teacher and convinced he'll kill her, Natsuki requests Yuu has sex with her, secretly intending to kill herself right after... when they're twelve. Then they're found out, and things go From Bad to Worse. | |

Queens of Mewni: It wasn't uncommon for the queens in the Butterfly kingdom to marry a cousin of theirs, in fact, Celestialism, the main religion in Mewni, doesn't consider relationships between cousins incestuous. Cosmica married her cousin Pyxar. Pyxar's mother Nixie objected strongly to the union, but it was less about them being related and more because she still resented Cosmica's mother for 'stealing' Nixie's intended love interest. There were some that did object to Cosmica and Pyxar's marriage, but it was less that they were cousins it itself and more that cousin marriage was practiced among the oppressive Titans the Mewnian people escaped from, and many feared a return to that time. Helia married her cousin Clovald. Clovald was literally the only person that the demisexual Helia was interested in. Diana married her cousin Tileford. The notable thing was, of all the royal matches, they were the only one to have a perfect score in compatibility. Granted, some blamed their daughter Sky's diminutive stature on the consanguinity. While Venus did not marry her cousin Swan (for the obvious reason that they were both women), it's Swan who Venus lost her virginity to, and made her into the hypersexual Ethical Slut Venus became (which is more than we can say for Swan). Crescenta would have an affair with her cousin Acorn to spite her philandering husband. Some believed her daughter Waxinne to be the result of that affair, though she claims Waxinne is Hawk's. |

Lilo & Stitch franchise: Jumba's experiments consider themselves to be cousins, but some of them are romantically involved. This is most evident with Stitch and Angel, but there also is Ship Tease between Yin and Yang in their debut episode of The Series and between Bonnie and Clyde in Leroy & Stitch.note That being said, the whole "cousins" thing in the franchise is actually based on Hawaiian slang and doesn't necessarily have anything to do with blood relations, which, being artificial creatures comprised of the DNA of various alien species, the experiments are not. | |

The Secret Garden: In the 1993 film, Colin wants to marry his cousin Mary when they grow up so that they can always be together. Mary is amused but uninterested. Colin's response is a jealous loathing of Dickon, the servant boy who helps them in the titular garden, with whom he suspects Mary of falling in love. Their mothers are stated to be identical twins, thus making this even iffier genetically, since the offspring of identical twins are genetic half-siblings (assuming the other parents involved to not also be identical and to be two different people). In the 1987 Hallmark adaptation adult Colin (portrayed by a very young-looking Colin Firth) proposes to Mary at the end and she accepts. However, in this version, they are not related — Colin's father is an old friend of Mary's parents instead of being Mary's uncle. |

Fire Emblem: Awakening uses a love system very similar to that of Genealogy of the Holy War. Either Lucina or a Chrom-fathered Cynthia or Kjelle can potentially marry their paternal cross-cousin Owain while other cousin pairings can be set up with certain combinations of parents. The international release has the status screens of such a pairing Bowdlerised to read "Companion" instead of husband/wife, though. A female Morgan mothered by Lissa or Emmeryn can also marry her cousin Inigo or Brady. | |

Natasha, who is at the time a child, assures her that they can still get married since Nikolai is only her second cousin. As young adults, Sonya and Nikolai get engaged, but Nikolai later breaks it off (with Sonya's consent) after he falls in love with Princess Marya. When they in turn get married, Sonya acts as an Honorary Aunt to their children. | |

Sword Art Online has a complicated case. Suguha Kirigaya wrestled with feelings for her older brother Kazuto, then when he became trapped in a VR game, her mother revealed that he was actually her cousin, adopted as an infant after his own family died in a traffic accident—him discovering that fact on his own led to him distancing himself from his adopted family. Suguha was overjoyed when Kazuto finally came out of his coma, less so when he revealed he'd found a girlfriend while stuck in the video game, since Suguha knew that her feelings for him were unhealthy and unrequited, she tried to find a safer target for her affections, like this "Kirito" guy she met online one night in another VR game. Then Suguha found out Kirito and Kazuto were one and the same, meaning she'd fallen in love with her cousin twice over, which resulted in a brief Heroic BSoD. Most of this aside from the Surprise Incest at the end is omitted from the anime adaptation. | |

In the first episode of Season 9, Robin and Barney are discussing guests for their wedding when they are appalled to learn that they share a crazy cousin Mitch. In the end they are relieved to learn that Mitch is only related to them by adoption and marriage and thus they aren't related by blood. |

The Camp Half-Blood Series and its associated spin-off series: Some couples in the franchise, particularly from the Greco-Roman series, are technically this, as their divine parents are part of a really complicated Tangled Family Tree. For example, the main couple, Percy and Annabeth, are first cousins once removed, since the former's father, Poseidon, is an uncle of the latter's mother, Athena. However, The Last Olympian handwaves this by stating that gods don't have DNA, so it isn't creepy for couples with different divine parents to have a relationship. Couples with the same godly parents, however, are creepy. Other than gods, the Magnus Chase and the Gods of Asgard series has Sam being betrothed to Amir, who is explicitly stated to be a relative on the mortal side. They are both descended from the Real Life 10th-century traveler Ahmad ibn Fadlan, but whether there are closer shared ancestors is unknown. Cousin marriage (or at least marriage between close families) is actually a common practice in the Arab world, not only to strengthen alliances (the Arabs being traditionally a clannish society) but also to keep inheritance in-family. |

The Shadowhunter Chronicles: The Lightwoods and Herondales are related through Edmund Herondale, whose daughter Cecily married Gabriel Lightwood. This means that, before meeting Magnus, Alec has been crushing on a distant cousin (Jace), though the latter doesn't reciprocate it. Kit Herondale's feelings for Ty Blackthorn are also this. Not only do the Blackthorns have the same, unnamed Herondale ancestor that Kit's family is descended from, but one of Kit's ancestors is a woman named Eva Blackthorn, who married Tobias Herondale and started the whole Lost Herondale line. |

In 1879, Cyrano and Roxanne from Cyrano de Bergerac are cousins. Although they don't actually end up together, their familial connection is never presented as squicky or an obstacle in their relationship. Given Catholic rules on consanguinity, this probably means 'cousin' was more a courtesy than genetic relationship. | |

The Sopranos: Little Carmine, the Inadequate Inheritor of the Lupertazzi crime family, is the one-time lover of his second cousin Lorraine Calluzzo, a minor associate. Johnny Sack, the underboss to Carmine Sr., is disgusted by it. Vito Spatafore boasts about "how close" he got with Adriana La Cerva, Christopher's girlfriend, after it seems that she had an affair with Tony behind Christopher's back. Not only is Vito a closeted gay man, but Adriana is also his first cousin; Richie Aprile is both Vito's and Adriana's uncle. Perhaps a result of the writers simply forgetting who was related to who. |

When Hervé and Nicolas follow the gang to the factory in an episode of Code Lyoko, Odd and Aelita pretend to have sneaked out of school on a date, despite the fact that Aelita joined the school under the pretense of being Odd's first cousin. Note that it works as a perfect in-universe Fridge Brilliance: it was Fake-Out Make-Out, but Hervé and Nicolas probably reads it: "They are kissing? But... They are cousins! Oh... No wonder they are hiding." Notably, when Hervé report the fact to Sissi, she obviously doesn't believe him and finds the concept absurd. | |

Tybalt in Romeo et Juliette: De La Haine a l'Amour (though not the play it's based on) wishes this was the case with him and Juliet. In most productions anyway. In Hungary it's less "he wishes his cousin returned his romantic love for her" and more "he's so obsessed with her that he thinks all men, including himself, are unworthy of her". There's still some weirdness going on there, though. | |

In The Book of Tobit, it's not clear exactly how closely Tobias and Sarah are related, but their marriage is not only allowed but considered obligatory. | |

In Hanasakeru Seishounen Rumaty and Kajika are unknowingly this. They do not actually get together in the end, but before Kajika and Lee Leng's Relationship Upgrade, the two are the closest out of all of Kajika's Love Interests. Bonus points for being each other's first kisses. | |

Downton Abbey: A major plot point is that the Earl of Grantham is without a son. Thanks to Heir Club for Men, his heir must be a distant male-line relative rather than one of his three daughters. The whole family wants Mary—his eldest daughter—to be the heir, but the law doesn't allow it. So if she could marry the heir, it could be an easy solution. Before the show begins, Mary was betrothed—though it's a very half-hearted engagement—to the heir, Patrick, who's her second cousin. Before they can be married, he dies in the Titanic sinking. While Mary only agreed to marry Patrick half-heartedly, it's implied Mary's younger sister Edith was actually super into him, and would've married him very happily if given the chance. After Patrick's death, an even more distant cousin, Matthew, is brought in as the next heir. Mary ends up actually falling in love with him, and they marry. They're fourth cousins. |

Ducktales Rewritten features Dewey and Webby falling in love before Webby's origin as Scrooge's genetically engineered clone/daughter is revealed. She and Dewey initially plan to break up as they reason they can't be together since they're related, but since all parties support them as a couple, Gene the Genie volunteers to be used to make a wish to change the DNA of Webby and her "sister" clones so they're still sisters but no longer related to Scrooge. | |
