* The title character in ''[[Ode to Kirihito]]'', pretty much from the minute he leaves the hospital. He is inevitably exposed to disease, human cruelty, murder, rape, imprisonment, pretty much everything possible that would destroy a person's faith in mankind. {{spoiler|He doesn't even know about what his best friend is capable of as his mental fortitude disintegrates in Kirihito's absence}}. Here it's played for drama—Kirihito is a good person at heart, but hardens considerably as a result of his experiences.

* [[Weasel Mascot|Chamo]] of ''[[Mahou Sensei Negima]]'' is a mild case; he's constantly abused (punched, stepped on, squashed, etc.) by everyone (mostly Asuna), although [[Panty Thief|he probably]] [[Dirty Old Man|deserves it.]] A more recent battle has an opponent [http://www.mangafox.com/page/manga/read/71/mahou_sensei_negima/chapter.64515/page.16/ impale him on her horn], where he hangs for a while.

** Also, Chisame seems to be the person most likely to get put into humiliating situations; she's always the first to get caught by Nitta for breaking school rules and seems to always suffer her portion of [[Clothing Damage]] in front of the whole class or on stage at a cosplay contest. Not to mention that incident with the [[Clothing Damage|clothes eating]] [[Naughty Tentacles|octopus...]]

** [[Ax Crazy|Secundum]] seems to have a habit of being [[Megaton Punch]]ed [[Punched Across the Room|Across The Room]] in a very undignified way. So far it happened three times (by Nagi, Takamichi and Rakan) in seven chapters.
