** The concept of a girl (voiced by [[Lyrical Nanoha|Nanoha]], no less) who has an <s>over-active</s> <s>functional</s> existent sex drive was too much for some otaku [[Complaining About Shows You Don't Watch|who wrote the show off based on the initial premise]].
* ''[[Black Butler]]'s'' Alois Trancy: [[Cute Psycho|psychotically mood-swingy]] [[Enfant Terrible]] who [[Wounded Gazelle Gambit|deliberately engineers]] his innocent moments just to [[Stalker with a Crush|get at Ciel]], or [[I Just Want to Have Friends|love-starved]] [[The Woobie|punching bag]] who simply [[Being Tortured Makes You Evil|snapped from his]] [[Dark and Troubled Past]] and is being [[The Man Behind the Man|manipulated]] by his [[Dragon-in-Chief|butler]]? (To be honest, [[Draco in Leather Pants|fangirls would love him]] [[Jerkass Woobie|either way]]...)
* The Homunculi of ''[[Fullmetal Alchemist (manga)|Fullmetal Alchemist]]'': [[Complete Monster]]s or simply the horrible results of centuries of child abuse at the hands of creator who never gave them a proper upbringing and never showed them any love?
* [[A Certain Magical Index]]: Accelerator. He killed t[[Cloning Blues|housands of the sisters]] simply for the purpose of making himself stronger, and constantly taunted them as he did so. However, killing them wasn't his idea, and a portion of the fanbase believes that the taunting wasn't to be mean, but rather an attempt to get the sisters to display some sort of emotion—since they didn't have a human response, [[What Measure Is a Non-Human?|he saw them as being emotionless robots instead of human, and thus didn't feel bad about killing them]]. [[Broken Base|This issue is rather polarizing]]. Another possible interpretation comes from a scene from the anime where Accelerator says that he doesn't understand someone who would throw away their life, and he wants power because his life is what's most important to him, and that's why no matter how many sisters he kills he'll just laugh and say "Like I care." One way to look at this is [[Senseless Sacrifice|that he doesn't consider someone willing to throw away their own life to be worth anything]], or possibly doesn't consider them to be a person at all.
* ''[[The Familiar of Zero]]'': Is Saito just a creepy pervert played straight, or a deconstruction of [[This Loser Is You|the otaku/ordinary person]] thrown into a... [[Unusual Euphemism|bountiful]] fantasy realm?
