Line 25:
* ''[[Danny Phantom]]'' had Samantha "Sam" Manson (the one Danny ended up with) as this early in the fandom; she was hated, despised, and bashed in fanfiction written by Danny fangirls who paired Danny with the writer's [[Original Character]]. To this day, the worst of those stories are still archived in Quizilla. However, the hate for Sam toned down when [[Well-Intentioned Extremist|Valerie]] [[Fallen Princess|Gray]] went through, not only [[Character Development]], but also a [[Gondor Calls for Aid]] episode in which she and Danny become friends, and eventually ended up in a [[Dating Catwoman]] situation. Since then, Valerie has been despised by a large part of the fandom (even though they broke up because [[It's Not You, It's My Enemies|Valerie didn't want to put Danny in danger]]), since the two still maintained romantic feelings for each other. Although by the end of the series {{spoiler|it's hinted prior to his [[Last-Minute Hookup]] with Sam that Danny got over Valerie,}} the hate is still going strong. It's not surprising to find a fanfic in which Sam is depressed over Danny and Valerie's relationship, and it turns out that Danny is only dating Valerie because he thinks Sam will never love him and never loved Valerie in the first place.
** Danny/Valerie shippers frequently claim Sam is some kind of manipulative shrew who thinks of Danny as a tool for her own agendas. It got even worse after [[Victorious Childhood Friend|the finale.]]
* ''[[The Fairly
* In ''[[Batman Beyond]]'', the [[Fan-Preferred Couple|Terry/Maxine]] fans ''really'' hated Terry's canon girlfriend, Dana.
** It's a bit of a two-way street, as the small faction of Terry/Dana shippers don't look too kindly on Max, either, for the most part. (Although they're usually more mature about it, or at least can't afford to alienate the majority audience.)
Line 77:
* Many [[Hey Arnold!|Helga/Arnold]] shippers hate and despise Lila for Arnold's former crush on her throughout the last part of the series. Which is odd, because Lila did nothing but gently and repeatedly ''turn Arnold down'', and even ''helped'' Helga kiss him after getting her to admit her crush. Granted, it ''has'' been said by [[Word of God]] that Lila is really [[Playing Hard to Get|subconsciously stringing Arnold along]] due to a repressed sexual side, but that still doesn't make her [[Ron the Death Eater|the Evil Bitch from Hell!]]
** Ruth and Summer also don't get spared from this, despite the fact that Ruth was insignificant to Arnold after season 2 and Summer was just a one-shot character who was just using Arnold to begin with and already had a boyfriend.
* Dawn from ''[[
* One-shot character Kitka the Falcon from ''[[The Penguins of Madagascar]]'' occasionally gets hate from Skilene shippers. Said shippers also don't like seeing Marlene paired with Julien or Fred the Squirrel, either.
* Bo Peep from the ''[[Toy Story (franchise)|Toy Story]]'' franchise is constantly bashed on, sometimes for getting in the way of the [[Relationship Writing Fumble|Woody/Jessie]] pairing. In ''Toy Story 3'', Bo is mentioned to have been [[Put on a Bus|sold to someone else at a yard sale]], leaving her out for good... But it's in the same movie that the [[Opposites Attract|Buzz/Jessie]] couple becomes more apparent.
** Jessie can get this a bit from Woody/Buzz shippers, and is often called a female version of Woody who was just paired with Buzz because it was more socially accepted.
** The Woody/Dolly pairing has also become quite popular with some fanfic authors. There are at least a couple of AU human fics that have turned Bo into an [[Alpha Bitch]] so that Woody could break up with her and pair with Dolly, his artistic childhood friend.
