Whenever someone carries a small kid, their speaking animal sidekick, or a very small friend on their shoulder wherever they go. Maybe it is to help the smaller one travel faster, or a sign that the two characters share a close (figurative or literal) familial bond. Not to be confused with Parrot Pet Position, which is about Loyal Animal Companions, rather than actual characters. Often overlaps with Morality Pet and Badass and Child Duo. See also Head Pet. |

Bleach: Kenpachi carries his adoptive daughter Yachiru. She only leaves his shoulder for three reasons: To eat, to play, or to play. Worth mentioning that he actually carries pretty much everyone this way. Ask Orihime. Ichigo followed his example for a while with Nel. |

Used as a gameplay mechanic in a late Dark Souls III boss. Sickly Prince Lothric rides around on the shoulders of his giant brother Lorian during the second phase of their boss battle. Also played with in that by this point, Lothric's magic is all that's holding Lorian up. | |

An adopted (or more properly mind-bonded) treecat in the Honor Harrington books prefer to ride on the shoulders of their human companion. They started as borderline examples of the Parrot Pet Position, but their in-story development puts them clearly within this trope. | |

Martial artist Jim Mazinger and his young spotter Kouji Kabuto of Violence Jack. While they are indeed close allies, it is also justified as Jim is blind and needs Kouji to see for him. This, in turn, references their original source material, Mazinger Z, where Kouji would pilot the title robot in a similar fashion. | |

In a flashback in One Piece, Tony Tony Chopper is seen a few times hanging on Hiriluk's shoulders while in his cutesy, chibi-sized "Brain Point". Chibi-Chopper does the same thing with Zoro◊ as well as Sanji◊ and Franky◊ in the main story. Inverted when Chopper carries Luffy while the latter is too exhausted to move in the Enies Lobby arc. And yes, he's still in his chibi form. Nami does it with Luffy while flying on Billy in Strong World. Later in Whole Cake Island she does it more comfortably with Jimbei◊. Robin is seen sitting on General Franky's shoulder in One Piece Film: Z. Mansherry rides Rebecca's shoulder in the epilogue of Dressrosa. Perospero rides on his mother Big Mom's shoulder during her Unstoppable Rage towards the Strawhats at the end of Whole Cake, pretty brave considering she could kill him at any moment. In the 3D2Y Special, Byrnndi World's older brother Byojack would usually sit on his shoulder. This do to a chronic sickness caused Byojack to stay very small while his younger brother grew very large. |

In Welcome to Demon School! Iruma-kun, Sabnock Sabro seems to be a sort of magnet for these. At first it only seems like Valac Clara does so because she's a Cloudcuckoolander, but then we find out his sister does it too. Also, when Clara asked if Iruma wanted to climb Sabro as well, he didn't exactly shut it down, just state he had better things to do. It appears that Sabro's tall, mountain-man physique makes this trope an attractive idea. Additionally, he's initially averse to them doing this, but eventually stops bothering and just lets them keep doing it. | |

Plants vs. Zombies: A Gargantuar is rarely seen without an Imp on his back. One variety of Gargantuar in the sequel carried three Imps on his back instead of one. In Plants vs. Zombies: Heroes, there were other variations on this team-up— one with just Gargantuars, one with just Imps, and even one with the Gargantuar being carried by the Imp. | |

Spider-Man: Spider-Man is small enough to ride on Hulk's shoulders in most team ups. It's pretty adorable, though Hulk will throw him off if "Bug Man" gets too annoying. Wolverine has done this with Hulk as well. Spidey once took a ride on Red Hulk as well, much to Ross's irritation. Inverted as Spider-Man’s daughter Annie rides on her father’s shoulders on the cover of The Amazing Spider-Man: Renew Your Vows |
