Line 120:
* [[Superman]] has gotten shafted plenty of times by his tendency to extend this too freely. In fact, in a 1960s imaginary story, Luthor dupes Supes into becoming his best friend after publicly renouncing evil, then [[Tear Jerker|promptly slaughters him with Kryptonite]] [[Moral Event Horizon|while laughing derisively at Superman's dying expressions of heartbreak and betrayal.]]
== [[Fan Works]] ==
* The "easily" part is averted in [http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4004316/1/Windows_of_the_Soul Windows of the Soul], in which Natsuki acknowledges the severity of {{spoiler|Shizuru's}} misdeeds and her flaws as a person, but nevertheless forgives her. Much of the fic involves {{spoiler|Shizuru's}} inability to forgive {{spoiler|herself}} for what {{spoiler|she}} has done.
* The ''[[Death Note]]'' [[Fanfic]] ''[[Constant Temptation]]'' dials this [[Up to Eleven]] when L forgives Light a.k.a. [[Serial Killer|Kira]] the guy who's killed hundreds of people (''by the first episode''). And Kira is not just forgiven by L but also the very Police Taskforce assigned to catching him (because he is now [[Slash Fic|dating L]] and has [["Well Done, Son" Guy|Daddy Issues]]. [[Make Room for the New Plot|There's also an]] [[Enemy Mine]] [[Make Room for the New Plot|excuse.]]) But to be fair Kira being Easily Forgiven occurs in most L x Light [[Slash Fic]].
* Pick any fanfic containing a [[Mary Sue|Mysterious New Girl]]. Chances are that the only person who won't instantly forgive her all her misdeeds (no matter how severe they were) the minute she makes it obvious she wants them to is the Mary Sue herself -- or the obvious villain of the piece.
* Many [[Naruto]] fanfics have Naruto being beaten within an inch of his life only to forgive them as well as Hiruzen's (Third hokage) Bullshit excuses for letting it happen.
* Done to Demona in [http://tgs.gargoyles-fans.org The Gargoyles Saga], Demona gives up trying to destroy humanity, and becomes one of the good guys all because Angela waves a finger in her face. Less than two months after attempting mass genocide of the human race, Demona is eating Christmas dinner with the heroes.
Line 133:
* [[Ace Combat: The Equestrian War|Fluttershy]] holds no grudges against Firefly when she initally berates the timid pegasus for not fighting the griffins. When Firefly apologizes for her behaviour, Fluttershy [[Crowning Moment of Heartwarming|gives her a hug]].
* [[Princess Celestia Hates Tea]]: Despite [[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic|Twilight']]s wild accusations of being a changeling queen that got Celestia attacked by her own staff, getting blasted by the Elements of Harmony, getting her room exploded, and nearly getting her banished to the moon for a thousand years, the old goddess is surprisingly cordial with Twilight in the upcoming mess she caused. {{spoiler|And then Twilight [[Mind Rape]]s her in an [[It Makes Sense in Context|attempt to make her]] [[Serious Business|like Tea.]]}}
== [[Film]] ==
* Sandman in ''[[Spider-Man (film)|Spider-Man]] 3''. Apparently, the fact that Sandman has a sick daughter and didn't ''mean'' to {{spoiler|''kill Uncle Ben''}} is enough to get forgiveness from Spidey.
