Line 50:
** Of course, even when the Marines take most of the crew seriously, poor Chopper is looked upon by them as a pet, his bounty never rising about a measly 10 Berries, even though he could likely be considered the ''most dangerous'' member.
** In the Punk Hazard Arc, Chopper gives the credit to his group's escape to Usopp when it was the G-5 medics with him were literally carrying him and a freakishly large incapacitated child while running like hell away from deadly gas in a collapsing building.
* Joey Wheeler from ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh (anime)|Yu-Gi-Oh]]''
** Joey Wheeler
*** He does get ''a little'' respect, just not much that he knows about, with Pegasus himself in ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! GX]]'' saying in a flashback scene that he considered Joey the third-best duelist he had encountered. Pegasus invented the game, so a guy can't help but trust his opinion here.
** Kuriboh. Seriously. From Kaiba onwards, it's hard to find a rival, antagonist, or villain who is willing to describe the little guy with an adjective better than "worthless", despite the fact that, time and time again, it and its many variations have protected its owners from monsters with godlike powers, saving them and the world as a whole from certain doom each time. The worst part about this is, some of these folks use monsters that are, if you compare the numbers, even weaker than a Kuriboh, showing incredible hypocrisy in their words.
* In the first season of ''[[Tiger and Bunny]]'', this is somewhat a [[Running Gag]] for the main character Kotetetsu T. Kaburagi, aka Wild Tiger. Despite being a veteran Hero whose [[The Cape (trope)|only wish is to save people]], he tends to get little to no respect from the citizens of Steinberg or his fellow Heroes for being a [[Destructive Savior]] and is very low on the Hero food chain. Whenever he does do something impressive, most people tend to credit his partner, [[Always Someone Better|Barnaby Brooks Jr]]. [[Hanging a Lampshade|Lampshaded]] at one point when Barnaby is receiving all of the praise for killing {{spoiler|Jake Martinez}}, despite the fact that it was Kotetsu who {{spoiler|figured out that Jake had the second ability of mind reading and [[Batman Gambit|tricked both Barnaby and Jake with a flash bomb, which caught Jake off-guard and gave Barnaby the opening to defeat him]] and then it was Kotetsu who caught Jake during his attempted escape which led to Jake's accidental death}}:
{{quote|'''Barnaby''': Don't tell me you actually want some praise, too!}}
