Line 89:
*** Roux Luka becomes this at the end of ''[[Mobile Suit Gundam ZZ]]'' after {{spoiler|she kills Glemy Toto during their battle.}} Roux knew Glemy was in love with her, but she never returned his feelings because he had some serious parental issues that he constantly mentioned and also was a Zeon soldier.
**** {{spoiler|Puru-Two, after Elpeo Puru sacrifices herself to save Judau from the Psyco Gundam Mk.II}} becomes one after Judau and Puru's spirit reason with her.
* Ennil El from ''[[After War Gundam X]]'', if not one of these at the start of the series, is most certainly one after the end of the Estarde arc. She does admittedly go through a weird, "kinda" [[:Category:Yandere|Yandere (disambiguation)]] phase {{spoiler|after she tries to genuinely reach out to Garrod and let him know he's not alone, only to get shot at because his people skills were crap at the time and he got scared}}, in which she just wants him to die at ''someone's'' hands, but she eventually just gives up. Cue a [[Mobile Suit Gundam|Ramba Ral-esque]] conversation with [[Bridge Bunny]] Toniya and an attempt at a normal life, and then...[[It Got Worse|stuff happens]]. Thankfully, she resolves to help Garrod and company out and gets a happy ending.
** Garrod's mentor and [[Team Dad]] for the Freeden crew, [[The Captain]] Jamil Neate, counts as one of the rare male Broken Birds, as an ex [[Kid Hero]] who is left physically and emotionally scarred after {{spoiler|he used his Gundam X to fire the lethal shot that brought about the disastrous [[Colony Drop]]}}.
** Garrod's partner and love interest, Tiffa, has some traces of this, manifested in her pathological shyness and inability to connect with others. Starting to trust the Freeden crew (aside from her adoptive father, Jamil) and learning that her horrible visions aren't set on stone are big parts of her [[Character Development]].
Line 126:
*** Basically, every female character.
* ''[[SHUFFLE!]]'' has three of these:
** Kaede Fuyou, greatly broken as a little girl due to {{spoiler|her beloved mother's death and not being able to cope with it. Made worse because Rin blamed himself for the accident that killed Mrs. Fuyou ''and'' his parents, which drove Kaede to abuse him as revenge -- and it's only when the whole deal is cleared up that she can start living again. And then he falls for Asa and [[:Category:Yandere (disambiguation)|Kaede mentally splinters again]]...}}
** {{spoiler|Asa Shigure's mother, Ama. Her past as a normal demon woman chosen as the first test subject experimented on by the gods and devils was really, really bad. She still cries from all the trauma.}}.
** {{spoiler|Ama's daughter, Asa}}, also has a period in which she behaves as one. {{spoiler|Asa has huge demon powers and they start awakening, but Asa [[Refusal of the Call|refuses to accept them]], despite how the [[Power Incontinence]] is literally ''killing'' her. This is because Asa clearly remembers how Ama cried when she once used them accidentally, and she doesn't want to make her beloved mother relive her past life. Once Rin reaches for her, she gets better, but it takes him ''lots'' of effort (and having to deal with Kaede getting broken and unstable as well).}}
Line 139:
* In ''[[D.Gray-man]]'', {{spoiler|Lenalee Lee}} turns out to be one of these, hiding ''a lot'' of bitterness behind her [[Stepford Smiler|sweet and cheerful exterior]]. {{spoiler|She outright hates the Black Order, the Innocence, and even God, because of what she went through.}} It takes her a LONG time to get better.
** Miranda also had some shades of this before joining the Black Order, mixed with [[Butt Monkey]]. Even now, her self-esteem is badly damaged because of that.
** Eliade. Holy shit, Eliade. Made even worse because she mixes it with [[:Category:Yandere|Yandere (disambiguation)]] too, since {{spoiler|she loves Krory...and yet she's an Akuma.}}
** Kanda, despite being male, is probably [[Dark and Troubled Past|the best example]] in the series.
* Kureha from ''[[After School Nightmare]]''.
Line 441:
** {{spoiler|So much so that it happens twice, when the even more bitter and twisted Tsugumi from Kid's route is revealed to be the same character 17 years later, who has since lost everything she gained in the first scenario.}}
** {{spoiler|She gets better, though, and at the end, returns to being the [[Tsundere]] that she had become after warming up to the main character.}}
* ''[[Tsukihime]]'' contains a subversion: there are a pair of twin sisters, one an obvious [[Genki Girl]], the other an apparent Broken Bird [[Emotionless Girl]]. However, {{spoiler|it turns out that Kohaku's genkiness is a mask for a completely [[:Category:Yandere (disambiguation)|shattered]], [[Stepford Smiler|emotionless psyche]], while Hisui is a [[Shrinking Violet]] who hides her feelings to keep Kohaku stable.}}
* Saber and Sakura in ''[[Fate/stay night]]''.
* Silviana, an [[Petting Zoo People|antrophomorphic dog]], from ''[[Wanko To Kurasou]]''. In this game, anthropomorphic dogs are pretty much regarded and treated as regular dogs, even if people ''do know'' that [[Unfortunate Implications|they're much more intelligent and self-conscious]]. Her owner not only mistreated her and had her permanently locked up in a room, but also tried to play backyard breeder and make her breed before she even had her first heat. That resulted in her becoming an [[Emotionless Girl]] until she was rescued by the main character. She got better, fortunately.
