** Gary Oak from the original saga, who spent most of his appearances taunting Ash. He becomes less of a jerk as the series goes on, and by the end of the Johto arc, a lot of his Jerk Ass status is more or less gone.

* The title character from ''[[Nadia: The Secret of Blue Water]]'' comes across like this for any scene where she loses her temper and says nasty things to Jean and occasionally Nemo (both of who obviously don't deserve it). Nonetheless, she ''does'' apologize numerous times to Jean for her outbursts and even does something reconciliatory (e.g. comforting him about his father, bringing him something to eat, or going on walks with him) {{spoiler|but she never gets to do so with Nemo, until she realizes, too late, that she could have been nicer}}.

** Strange enough it's the ''other'' aliens who have the most trouble with her. [[Ordinary High School Student|Human Mayuko]] seems to genuinely care for her, despite their [[Odd Couple|differences]].

* The agents of the O'Hara Foundation tend to act this way towards Ray Steam in the movie ''[[Steamboy]]''. By the end, it seems that they're trying to kill him out of sheer spite, despite having no particular reason to do so and much, ''much'' better things to do with their time (such as {{spoiler|trying to escape the giant, flying steam-powered castle that's about to self-destruct around them}}).
