*** This is also a distubingly common [[Alternate Character Interpretation]] that follows the "[[What If]] England remained an Empire?" scenario. Apparently, the only way a Still-Imperial!England can be portrayed as is...a violent and abusive bastard who still dresses like a pirate, shoots and beats up whoever dares raise their voice, and sexily abuses a Forever-Colony!America reduced to a whiny, wimpified [[Love Martyr]] mess.
** Turkey is typically portrayed as this in [[Foe Yay|Turkey/Greece]] and [[Unequal Pairing|Turkey/Egypt]] fanworks (although it's much less common for the latter). While some Turkey/Greece works veer into [[Belligerent Sexual Tension]] instead by making Greece into a defiant [[Tsundere]] on equal fighting ground with Turkey, many more Turkey/Greece works make it clear that as hard as Greece tries to fight back, Turkey thoroughly dominates him and is free to abuse and even rape him because he either wants to [[I Have You Now, My Pretty|put Greece in his place]] or [[Victim Falls For Rapist|just can't control himself around Greece]], leaving Greece a [[Break the Cutie|broken and embittered man]] who [[Stockholm Syndrome|nonetheless can't help but]] [[Love Martyr|keep coming back to Turkey]]. Some fics have him go as far as raping Greece [[Ephebophile|as a teen]] or [[Shotacon|a child]], brainwashing Greece into being his slave, or even raping Greece ''explicitly'' [[Attention Whore|because he'd rather have Greece hate him than be indifferent towards him.]]
*** He also comes off as this in Turkey/Hungary fanworks set in the "Ottoman Hungary" times, i.e. in several online places, there's quite the speculation about the possibility of the "young!Prussia finds an injured young!Hungary all battered and half naked after fighting the Ottoman Empire" strip being the aftermath to Turkey [[Unsettling Gender Reveal|realizing that she's a girl]], [[She Is's All Grown Up|aknowledging how she's growing into a beautiful woman]]...and either tearing her clothes and ''raping'' her on the spot to [[Stay in the Kitchen|"show her what's her place in the Ottoman Empire"]], or [[Scarpia Ultimatum|trying to forcibly get her]] [[Sex Slave|into his never-heard-of-before-in-canon harem]] (if she wasn't already there and was defeated while trying to run away, that is). If the fanworks are set ''after'' that time, however, it goes much more by the [[Belligerent Sexual Tension]] way, with an [[Older and Wiser]] Hungary [[Action Girl|having the physical strength]] to keep Turkey's [[Jerk with a Heart of Gold|lechery and/or jerkiness]] at bay.
*** Turkey/Japan fanworks are mostly free of this or at least don't have Turkey abusing or raping Japan. Even fanworks where Turkey's feelings for Japan are clearly one-sided portray him as a jealous but ultimately harmless [[Hopeless Suitor]] at the very worst. Maybe because Turkey and Japan have always had a cordial history with each other.
*** Rather oddly averted with most Turkey/Iceland fanworks, ''even'' those in which Iceland is smacked with [[Wimpification]]. There are however a few with Ottoman Turkey kidnapping little/pre-teen!Iceland and putting him [[Sex Slave|in his harem]], "basing it off" the [[wikipedia:Turkish Abductions|Turkish Abductions]] in Icelandic history.
Line 134:
* Yu Kanda from ''[[D.Gray-man]]'' sometimes tends to be made into a [[Bastard Boyfriend]] for Allen. And let's not even talk about Tyki Mikk...
* Either Roy Mustang or Envy in ''[[Fullmetal Alchemist]]''.
* Gauron of ''[[Full Metal Panic!]].''
* Kaede Rukawa from ''[[Slam Dunk]]'' is frequently portrayed as this in fanwork to a wimpified Sakuragi. Yes, '''that''' [[Boisterous Bruiser|Hanamichi]] [[Fiery Redhead|Sakuragi]] is made into Rukawa's whiny and weepy uke.
* Parodied in ''[[Gantz Abridged]]''. Kurono wants to be the [[Bastard Boyfriend]] of Kishimoto, but he has, as he puts it, landed in the one anime where being an asshole doesn't get you the girl. She instead has a thing for the [[Dogged Nice Guy]].
