When the real-world time between franchise installments is acknowledged in-universe. Say, if Alice and Bob get married at the end of the first movie, then the sequel comes out three years later and the characters say they've been married for three years. This trope is all but guaranteed if the gap is particularly huge, like ten years or more, especially if the work is live-action due to the aging of the actors. Anything less, it's usually just understood that an unspecified amount of time has passed since the original. Character Aged with the Actor is a common result of this, especially for very large gaps.

It's not quite exact, but the 1986-87 comic Watchmen takes place in an Alternate History version of 1985. The 2020 Distant Sequel, Rorschach (2020), takes place in the same timeline's version of 2020. | |

Played with for The World Ends with You and NEO: The World Ends with You. The original game came out in 2007, but had an Updated Re-release in 2018 titled Final Remix with an additional storyline as a Sequel Hook for NEO, "A New Day". The sequel chooses to use the added storyline's 2018 release date as the jumping off point for its Time Skip of three years between the two games with the game's release in 2021, rather than the 14 year gap between the original base game and its proper sequel. | |

Star Trek: Picard takes place twenty years after the events of Star Trek: Nemesis, which is fairly close to the real-life gap of eighteen years between the two. It's referenced that Picard resigned in protest from Starfleet roughly fourteen years before the start of the series and the Enterprise-D crew have gone their separate ways. | |

19 years had passed between the release of Alien Hominid and its sequel, Alien Hominid Invasion, and the sequel itself also takes place after 19 years since the events of the first game, because the Mothership that had the distress signal from the original alien actually did take that long reach Earth. This also means the Fat Kids in the first game that helped the original alien escape the FBI have grown up to become adults, which is important regarding the overall story of the sequel. One of the Fat Kids who was abducted by the alien came back to Earth to raise a new underground group of Fat Kids, known as Large Lad now. There was also a Fat Kid that did not get abducted and was instead imprisoned all due to wear a seatbelt as the driver, who grew up to become the current FBI director who opposes his former allies out of bitterness. | |

Homestuck progresses in Webcomic Time, and most of Acts 1-5 (released in 2009 through 2011) take place in one day. At the end of Act 5, a Wham Episode reveals that there will be an Act Break as all characters must split up and travel, and their journey will take three years to complete. When they arrive at their destination (in 2012) they have aged with the comic and matured from 13-year-olds to 16-year-olds. The same applies to The Homestuck Epilogues. Released on Homestuck's 10-year anniversary (2019), all the characters are exactly a decade older than they were at the beginning of the comic. |

The Craft: Legacy is set in 2020, the year it was released, while The Craft was released in 1996 and also set then, meaning twenty-four years has passed in-universe and out. Nancy looks to be in her late thirties or early forties (Fairuza Balk was 45 during filming), which fits with the timeline given she was in her late teens in the first movie; as she's revealed to be Lily's birth mother, at least sixteen years would had to have passed given Lily is in her late teens. | |

Banjo-Tooie takes place two years after the events of the original game. As a result of being trapped under a boulder for two years, Grunty has been reduced to a living skeleton, and once she is rescued by her sisters, Mingella and Blobbelda, she kills Bottles as retribution. The goal of the game is to get into the Cauldron Keep so Banjo and Kazooie can use the Big O. Blaster (which Grunty plans to use on herself to restore herself to her former glory) to bring Bottles back to life. Tooie was released in 2000, two years after the original game. | |

Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts takes place eight years after the events of Tooie. As a result of not having any villainy to fight for eight years, Banjo and Kazooie have become fat, lazy, and have forgotten how to do all of their special moves from the first two games, resulting in the game's shift from an action platformer to a driving-based game. Grunty, now reduced to a skull, has spent the past eight years making her way back to Spiral Mountain. Nuts and Bolts was released in 2008, eight years after Tooie. |

Twin Peaks plays with this. Although the television series ended in 1991, it was followed by a film that is both a prequel and a sequel, Twin Peaks: Fire Walk with Me, that aired in 1992 (which periods set before the series aired around 1990, and then in 1992 itself...or thereabouts). Twenty-five years later, the series returned with the followup season (technically sort of Season 3), called 'The Return'. These twenty-five years that have passed are implied to be a part of the overall mythos of the show, although why is left ambiguous, as Laura (who last appeared in Fire Walk With Me, where she was the protagonist) implies. | |

Kaamelott: Premier Volet was released more than a decade after the series' Downer Ending (due to developmentHell, Executive Meddling and then the COVID pandemic), which actually works quite well to show just how bad Lancelot's mismanagement of the kingdom has gone since he spent fortunes trying to find Arthur (who'd been Made a Slave somewhere in the Mediterranean). | |

After DC Comics purchased the rights to Captain Marvel in 1973, they explained the characters' twenty-year absence from comics by revealing that all the characters were put in suspended animation for 20 years thanks to one of Dr. Sivana's experiments Gone Horribly Wrong. | |

The first episode of Lupin III: Part II begins with Lupin and his gang (and Zenigata) reuniting five years after their last caper. Lupin III: Part 1 finished its run in March 1972, with Part II premiering in October 1977, a five-year gap. | |

The Ratchet & Clank games between 2002 and 2012 all referred to previous entries this way. For example, 2012's All 4 One referred to Dr. Nefarious' defeat in 2009's A Crack in Time happening three years beforehand. A famous example is the Gadgetron employee discount Ratchet earns in the original 2002 game: he's told it wouldn't kick in for another two years, which it finally does in 2004's Up Your Arsenal so long as the player has a save of the original where Ratchet got the discount. | |

Toy Story 3 takes place eleven years after the events of Toy Story 2. Old home movies of a young Andy and Molly are shown in the film's prologue, and the film's plot involves Andy's toys being donated to Sunnyside when Andy tries to decide what to do with them since he hasn't played with them in years. The third film itself was released in 2010, eleven years after the second. | |

Final Fantasy: Final Fantasy X-2, released in 2003, is set two years after Final Fantasy X, released in 2001. More specifically, it came out only a couple of months before a completely-accurate two year anniversary. Final Fantasy IV: The After Years was first released in Japan as a mobile phone game in 2008 and takes place exactly 17 years after Final Fantasy IV, which originally came out in 1991. |

Splatoon: The difference between Splatoon and Splatoon 2 is two years (the difference between their release dates). Meanwhile, the difference between Splatoon 2 and Splatoon 3 is five years (again, the difference between their release dates). In these time skips, new Idol Singers rise and previous ones become old news, fashion trends change, and characters grow, age, and become legends for their deeds. | |

The Wild Cards series of novels presents a superhero universe in a somewhat realistic light. One of the major differences between it and comic book universes like the Marvel and DC Universes is that time passes and characters age and change, and even die for real. The series was put on hold during the mid-1990s. The newer books published after 2008, acknowledge the real-life gap of 13 years. | |

The Halloween series has pulled this twice through a combination of Soft Reboot and Canon Discontinuity: Halloween H20: Twenty Years Later, which ignores the continuity of every film after the second, was released in 1998 and set twenty years later from Halloween (1978). Halloween (2018) then ignores the continuity of every previous film except the first one again and is set forty years later it, as the film too was released forty years later. |

Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade was released in 1989 and took place in 1938. Due to various factors, it wouldn't get a sequel, Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, until 2008. Said sequel took place in 1957, so the gap between both the release dates and settings was nineteen years. | |

Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts takes place eight years after the events of Tooie. As a result of not having any villainy to fight for eight years, Banjo and Kazooie have become fat, lazy, and have forgotten how to do all of their special moves from the first two games, resulting in the game's shift from an action platformer to a driving-based game. Grunty, now reduced to a skull, has spent the past eight years making her way back to Spiral Mountain. Nuts and Bolts was released in 2008, eight years after Tooie. | |

Psycho-Pass season 1 ends in March 2113 with Mika Shimotsuki joining the Bureau as a new Inspector, which parallels its real-life season finale airing in March 2013. The second season begins in October 2114 and Mika mentions she's been an Inspector for a year and a half, which is precisely how long it took for the second season to begin airing in October 2014. | |
