Line 38:
* ''[[Magic Knight Rayearth]]'' resolves the love triangle between Hikaru, Lantis and Eagle by nobly killing Eagle off. (Which does not occur in the manga, where Hikaru [[Tenchi Solution|does not feel a pressing need to choose just one]]...)
* ''[[SHUFFLE!]]'' does this ''twice'' to the main obstacle of the final pairing, both by having her [[Yandere|go nuts]], and then having a two-second implication that she falls in love with [[Schoolgirl Lesbians|another of the girls]] in the ending credits.
* [[Schoolgirl Lesbians|Schoolgirl Lesbian]] Shizuru from ''[[MaiMy-HiME]]'' has had two of these occur. In the [[Anime]] itself, she goes insane, though a combination of her popularity and the [[Reset Button]] nature of the ending save her in the end. The video game based on this, which is aimed at a different [[Demographics|demographic]], has her committing suicide if the [[Dating Sim|main character chooses to be]] with Natsuki.
** In the [[MaiMy-HiME|manga]], this is averted, as while Natsuki continues having feelings for Yuuichi after he has essentially chosen Mai, Shizuru does not go insane, kill herself, get together with anyone else or even seem affected at all by Natsuki's pursuit of Yuuichi.
* Subverted to an extreme in the ''[[Tenchi Muyo!]] spinoff'', ''[[Tenchi Muyo! GXP]]''. {{spoiler|Seina marries his entire harem. ''[[Tenchi Solution|All of them.]]'' Even his ship's cute [[Spaceship Girl|animal avatar]]. This also includes the [[Trickster Mentor]]'s [[Girl Posse]], who suddenly arranged to get [[Shotgun Wedding|shotgun themselves into the wedding]],}} not entirely for [[The Mole|ulterior motives]].
* In the last episode of ''[[Speed Grapher]]'', {{spoiler|Ginza's long-time obsessive crush on Saiga}} is abruptly pushed aside by a sudden change of heart, after she {{spoiler|hears him tell Kagura that he loves her.}} Later, we hear other characters saying how surprising it was that she decided to {{spoiler|hook up with Ryougoku, another character on the show whom she hardly knew--presumably so that Saiga and Kagura can be happy together}} after Kagura comes back.
