| - This is, of course, a hold over from comic book panels, particularly Odd-Shaped Panel. Examples of Hexagonal Speech Balloon include:
* Kashimashi: Girl Meets Girl
* Mai-Otome
* Sailor Moon
* Ranma 1/2
* Ouran High School Host Club has played with it, including a scene where Kyouya punctures one of the speech balloons with a pen.
* Twice in Love Hina
* Used in a humorous Breather Episode of Avatar: The Last Airbender, which is also the only time a Super-Deformed character has appeared in the series proper.
* Digimon Adventure used it once.
* In Fruits Basket, members of the Zodiac may be represented by a Super-Deformed animal head of the appropriate species when speaking from offscreen. Other characters may be represented by other avatars, such as Tohru's

* Ichiban Ushiro no Dai Maou uses these as a Censor Box.
* Pokémon delves into this, be it with characters getting lost, arguing with one another, etc.
* Shuffle frequently uses arrow-shaped boxes when someone is talking, both when they're too far away to be seen, and when they're off-screen.
