Loving Bully: Difference between revisions

{{trope}}

 

 

This is generally [[Played for Laughs]] and will not normally get into serious violence unless the target is [[Made of Iron]]. [[Romanticized Abuse]] is the less innocent [[Sister Trope]], and [[Bastard Boyfriend]] is the [[Darker and Edgier]] one. [[Domestic Abuser]] is when it becomes ''very'' [[Dude, Not Funny]]

 

* Itta towards Fuuka in ''[[Girl X Girl X Boy]].''

* In one FAQ of ''[[Bleach]]'' Rukia says that ''someone'' was a schmuck towards her in the Shinigami school because he couldn't tell her his feelings. Unsurprisingly, chapter -17 (a bonus chapter) seems to indicate that that someone was Renji.

* [[Deconstructed]] in ''[[Daily Lives of High School Boys]]'': {{spoiler|Habara}} was a feared [[Bully]] known as "[[Red Baron|Archdemon]]" who terrorized every boy in her neighborhood, but especially Toshiyuki Karasawa, her next door neighbor, eventually giving him ''several'' large [[Scars Are Forever|scars that would never go away]]. Fast forward eight years, and it becomes clear that she harbors a small crush on Karasawa, who, unfortunately for her, is traumatized by her bullying to the point where he can barely interact with her normally.

* In ''[[Onihime VS]]'', Arima and her girl posse relentlessly bully and molest poor Setsuna...because Arima is in love with him. It's exactly as messed up as it sounds.

 

== [[Film]] ==

* Buttercup to the Farm Boy in ''[[The Princess Bride]]''.

 

* ''[[The Dick Van Dyke Show]]'': There's a girl in Richie's class who bullies him because she likes him.

* [[Armored Closet Gay|Karofsky]] of ''[[Glee]]'' [[Ho Yay|towards Kurt]]. He even gives him a [[Forceful Kiss]] in the episode "Never Been Kissed".

 

== [[Western Animation]] ==

** A flashback reveals that {{spoiler|Arnold's grandparents were this in their youth as well. His grandmother was the bully.}}

* Chuckie once had a suitor like this in ''[[Rugrats]]''.

* An episode of ''[[Recess]]'' had a boy who was harassing Gretchen admit he was this trope after being confronted (the other half of the episode had him acting as a [[Dogged Nice Guy]]/[[Stalker with a Crush]]).

* ''[[Phineas and Ferb]]'': in a [[Precocious Crush]] example, Buford does this to Candace when he can get away with it.

'''Candace:''' [different episode] Buford? How did his number get [in my phone]? }}

* ''[[The Simpsons (animation)|The Simpsons]]'': when Bart develops a crush on a girl Nelson gives him advice which amounts to "bully her to win her love." Nelson gives Bart a piece of gum to stick in her hair, then adds an additional piece of gum. "Who knows, you may get lucky."
