Line 83:
* [[Subverted Trope|Subverted]] in ''[[Revolutionary Girl Utena]]'' in regards to the [[Love Triangle]] between [[One-Scene Wonder|Ruka]], [[Defrosting Ice Queen|Juri]], and [[Bitch in Sheep's Clothing|Shiori]]. Whereas Juri is struggling with her unrequited love for Shiori, Shiori believes Juri is making fun of her and only associates with her out of pity, leading to extreme bitterness, making Juri believe that her cold demeanor and fencing skills are unlikable assets. When Ruka arrives after [[Ill Girl|recovering from illness]], {{spoiler|he dates Shiori for a short spell, sleeps with her, and uses her for a duel against Utena. It turns out that he used his duel to humiliate Shiori and call her out on her behavior, and then he breaks up with her in front of the entire school. In the end, Ruka seemed like a [[Manipulative Bastard|prick]] like most of the male cast initially, but he pulled out these stunts to free Juri from her destructive relationship with Shiori.}}
** {{spoiler|'''However''', he also completely destroyed the emotionally-fragile Shiori (after having very likely taken her virginity, which surely wasn't necessary for his plans) and arguably crossed the line when he ''sexually assaulted'' Juri. Good intentions or not, he could have made her hate him ''without'' pinning her up against the wall, stealing a kiss, and possibly groping her in a very uncomfortable and squicky scene.}}
* During the ending chapters of the manga version of ''[[Kashimashi: Girl Meets Girl]]'' {{spoiler|[[Schoolgirl Lesbians|Yasuna]] says she only wishes for [[Gender Bender|Hazumu]] to be happy, and thus she does not mind if Hazumu chose [[Tsundere|Tom]][[:Category:Yandere (disambiguation)|ari]] instead of her. That she ends this dialogue in tears might undermine her words, however. }}
* In ''[[Girl Friends]]'' this may be the reason why Akko and Mari have trouble facing up to their true feelings for each other.
* In the ''[[Gungrave]]'' anime Brandon Heat left his sweetheart Maria so she and Big Daddy can be together. Some subversion occurred because he never thought that Big Daddy could ever hurt her.
Line 92:
** He tries to do the same exact thing later on in the arc. When they're all out of danger, he tells Shinnosuke to take good care of Akane and attempts to leave them together once more. Considering he's the [[Crazy Jealous Guy]] type, this is actually rather significant.
* In the ''[[Asatte no Houkou]]'' manga, Amino starts off as a [[Stalker with a Crush]], but ends up being this.
* Yuzu Yamamoto in ''[[Bitter Virgin]]'' liked the main lead Daisuke Suwa. She was quick to notice that Daisuke was developing feelings for Hinako Aikawa, and after some wrestling with the issue decided to support Hinako. Up until {{spoiler|she inadvertently learned Hinako had given birth to a child}} and ends up blurting this out to Daisuke. Unknown to her, Daisuke was fully aware of this already and it only cements her status as [[Unlucky Childhood Friend]]. Also, resident [[:Category:Yandere|Yandere (disambiguation)]] Kazuki also has a moment of this when she comes to the same realization as Yuzu. Though in her case she's only stepping aside temporarily as everyone is certain the relationship will ultimately fail.
* In ''[[Mirai Nikki]]'', [[:Category:Yandere (disambiguation)|Yuno]], ''of all people'', does this in later chapters. {{spoiler|She has near-death experiences in chapters 22 and 23, and both times she was ready to die in order to save Yukiteru from the 4th--either from blowing herself and the 4th up with a grenade or taking a missed shot from Yukiteru while being held as a human shield by the 4th. Later, when Yukiteru's parents die and he swears to kill the rest of the diary holders (and explicitly mentions killing her) so he can [[A God Am I|become a god]] and bring back his parents, Yuno, with a smile on her face, responds:}}
{{quote|'''Yuno:''' {{spoiler|[[Crowning Moment of Heartwarming|"I'll die for you whenever you want, Yukki."]]}}}}
* ''[[School Rumble]]'' mixes this trope liberally with [[All Love Is Unrequited]], especially after [[Cerebus Syndrome]] kicks in:
Line 433:
* Shima-kun from ''[[Clannad]]'', who wishes for Misae to find her happiness, since he's worried about her.
** The Kyou route revolves around deconstructing this trope, showing just how awkward and painful it would be in reality.
* In almost all endings to ''[[Frozen Essence]]'', {{spoiler|Zareh}} helps Mina be with her chosen love interest and bids her farewell in spite of {{spoiler|having been in love with Mina for a thousand years and being the one who unsealed her from her prison in the first place}}. This is the most prominent in Rune's path where {{spoiler|he tells Mina that she will never be happy if she doesn't see Rune again, risks being captured and exposed to let Mina reunite with Rune, and tells Mina in the Light End to let go of him and focus on her future with Rune instead}}. What really makes this sad is that Mina doesn't even realize the full significance of this because {{spoiler|she's lost all her memories of her past - and by extension, Zareh - so she doesn't even know who this person comforting her in her dreams is}}. However, this is brutally subverted in {{spoiler|Zareh}}'s own Dark End where he [[:Category:Yandere (disambiguation)|snaps]] after being rejected by Mina and keeps her captive to prevent her from leaving him.
* In ''[[Katawa Shoujo]]'', this is the reason why {{spoiler|Misha helps Hisao get together with Shizune in the latter's route. The big twist here is that her beloved is not Hisao but [[Schoolgirl Lesbians|Shizune]]. Eventually however, especially after the first time Hisao and Shizune have sex. He feelings start to come to the surface and put a strain on ''everyone's'' realtionships with each other.}}
* [[Blue and Orange Morality|Rather surprisingly]], {{spoiler|Saya}} in ''[[Saya no Uta]]'' displays this at one point: {{spoiler|she reveals to Fuminori that she has the ability to restore his distorted senses back to normal and offers to do so for him. If Fuminori says that he wants it, she willingly does it even though she's visibly saddened by how this will effectively force her to separate from the one human who she could truly connect to forever because his normal human senses wouldn't be able to bear the sight of her true [[Eldritch Abomination]] form.}}
Line 450:
** And Gabby proceeds to go through it again , when she endures Jacinda's [[Anything That Moves]] attitude, before finally getting fed up with being taken for granted and breaking things off herself.
* Occurs fairly early on in ''[[Questionable Content]]'': [[The Reveal|Faye finally explains to Marten]] why she's been putting out such drastically mixed signals towards his romantic overtures and why she can't have a relationship with ''anyone'' right then, especially the kind Marten wants. She agrees to seek help for her issues, but only on the condition that Marten doesn't try to wait for her.
* Torg has had a crush on Zoe for most of ''[[Sluggy Freelance]]'', but he never tells her how he feels, and at one point even resolves never to speak to her again, because he's worried that Oasis (a [[:Category:Yandere (disambiguation)|crazy jealous]], immortal assassin) will kill Zoe for getting between her and Torg. Currently, Torg is actively searching for a way to permanently stop Oasis, in part so that he and Zoe can finally be together.
* In ''[[1/0]]'' {{spoiler|Ghanny}} helps Terra {{spoiler|break her self-imposed fourth wall and come out of the closet to confess her love for Zadok}} as talked about [http://www.undefined.net/1/0/?strip=685 here]
* ''[[Sabrina Online]]'': Zig Zag isn't so much in love with the title character as she's infatuated with her. And she knows it. There's also the fact that Sabrina is straight, a tad prudish, and is rather [[Squick]]ed by Zig Zag's [[Anything That Moves]] attitude. Zig would settle for getting Sabrina to come out her shell and enjoy life.
