Line 78:
* Kunugi-tan from ''[[Binchou Tan]]''.
* Kuno from ''[[Ranma ½|Ranma 1/2]]'' could be considered a bizarre variation even though he's rarely sympathetic. He lives in a mansion occupied by no one but his sister Kodachi and only has one unpaid servent (and only in the anime). He's estranged from his dad, behaves in a Outdated fashion, and appears to have no real friends.
* Isabella from ''[[Paradise Kiss]]'' was raised by her butler, and also had the issues you'd expect from a little [[Ojou]] [[TranssexualTranssexualism|trapped in a little rich boy's body]].
* The truth is that most to all of the Ushiromiya cousins from ''[[Umineko no Naku Koro ni]]'' probably could qualify for this - they all (except for George, {{spoiler|and even he runs into some issues when he wants to marry [[Meido|Shannon]]}}) seem to have rather strained relationships with their parents, who in turn have issues with their ''own'' father. However, as far as outright [[Parental Abandonment]] is concerned, Ange probably gets the truckload - by the time we meet her, her entire family {{spoiler|save one}} is dead.
** {{spoiler|And said remaining relative, George's [[Rich Bitch]] mother Eva, was hardly the best caregiver, due to Bernkastel's intervention ''and'' her [[Silent Scapegoat]] position.}} Ange is also very isolated at school; unusually, it's not so much because she's rich (since it's a boarding school for rich girls), but because [[All of the Other Reindeer|her classmates]] don't like her gloomy personality.

== Fan Works ==
* Tsuruya's backstory in ''[[Kyon: Big Damn Hero]]'' portray her like that. She's afraid to let [[I Just Want to Have Friends|people close to her]] because of [[Yakuza|her family business]].
* Blaine in ''[[Hunting the Unicorn (Fanfic)|Hunting the Unicorn]]'' is shown to be this--though he has [[True Companions|the Warblers]], [[Parental Substitute|Greg,]] and [[Official Couple|Kurt,]] his father is [[Parental Neglect|neglectful]], his mother is [[Values Dissonance|extremely old-fashioned,]] and his siblings are [[When You Coming Home, Dad?|traveling constantly or studying in California]]. It's a [[Cerebus Retcon]] of his [[Relationship Sue|canon portrayal]], which turns him into a [[Love Martyr]] [[Extreme Doormat|who goes along with everything Kurt says]] because he doesn't want yet another person to leave him. {{spoiler|Like the first guy he slept with.}}
* Alfred's backstory in [[Part Right, Half Wrong, a Third Crazy]]. His father was incredibly rich, and also emotionally distant/neglectful to the point of pretty much replying to any of Al's attempts to form a relationship between them with "I don't have time for that shit". He's also implied to not have had any real friends until college, and even then they were more people he got high with than people he actually talked to and/or liked.
