Pokémon the Series: XY featured Bonnie attempting to be The Matchmaker for her big brother Clemont, always proposing any girl or woman she meets to be Clemont's "keeper", much to Clemont's embarrassment.However, since Iris lacked a bike in Unova, Pikachu shocked her instead, creating a different running gag where Pikachu shocks the female lead. The anime began regions with Pikachu wrecking the bikes of that region's female lead ( Kanto with Misty, Hoenn with May and Sinnoh with Dawn).He offers a rematch instead (as Ash had surrendered to him earlier), but Ash is still happy to take it (especially when Charizard decides to behave for a bit and inserts itself into the 1 on 1 battle with Magmar). Pokémon: The Original Series: After quite a few of Kanto's Gym battles end in Ash being given a badge either out of pity and/or saving the Gym or its Leader's personality, Blaine does not give Ash a Volcano Badge after he helps stop a volcanic eruption.Then it's revealed that his hairstyle was inspired by a mysterious man who saved his life when he nearly died from a fever. Jo Jos Bizarre Adventure Diamond Is Unbreakable always had Josuke getting angry over anyone insulting his hair.After the show was brought back after 2+ years on hiatus, the writers seemed to have kept this element. Near the end of Season 2, her dad goes to therapy, but because Penny is used to the ideal that Love Hurts, she has trouble coping for an episode before finally accepting it.

In One Piece, Sanji's laughably inaccurate bounty poster was a long-running joke.The last time the gag is used in Part 1 is when Inner Sakura is implied to be a full-on 2nd personality and foils Ino's attempt at Grand Theft Me.
RUNNING GAG BIT HOW TO
In Part 2, Sakura has learned how to express her true feelings and Inner Sakura only appears once in what could be considered a Call-Back (seen in Episode 8 of Shippuden and Chapter 250 of the manga).
How do you handle it? Send it off in grand style, of course. If it isn't, it's wasting time when there are bigger fish to fry. If it's popular, that means the gag won't be used anymore. Ending the gag is hard to pull off successfully whether the gag was popular among the fanbase or not.
