Line 31:
** She can also be possessed by the mysterious whatevers that are running the digital world (apparently, in rank, they're the one step that exists between [[The Obi-Wan]] Gennai and ''[[The Four Gods]].'') And once talked like her possessed self while apparently ''not'' possessed, and could grant healing and a recharge ''by glowiness alone.'' She's got some serious clout, and we never get any kind of explanation for it, not even something like "Light is just that awesome a Crest trait."
* Kisara of ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh!]]'', the [[White-Haired Pretty Girl|white-haired]] and blue-eyed Egyptian and homeless, quiet, vaguely psychic, mysterious keeper of the spirit of the Blue-Eyes White Dragon who [[Heroic Sacrifice|sacrificed herself]] to protect the only person who ever showed her kindness, High Priest Seto... even [[Reincarnation|3,000 years later]].
** Only present day example would be against losing to Isis during Battle City. Otherwise, Kaiba typically sees Blue-Eyes White Dragon as his personal [[
* Clare from ''[[Claymore]]'' starts out like this, until it becomes obvious that she is seriously [[The Stoic]] mixed with [[Badass Abnormal]], a [[Super-Powered Evil Side]], [[Kuudere]], and a bit of [[Deadpan Snarker]].
** Ophelia at first appears like this, but she is just liberal amounts of [[Ax Crazy]].
* Vivio of ''[[Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha (anime)|Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha]]'', the main character's adopted 6-year old daughter who has [[Mismatched Eyes]] and was found trudging through the sewers while chained to a pair of cases containing [[MacGuffin|Relics]].
* C.C. from ''[[Code Geass]]''. Personality-wise she's more of a [[Deadpan Snarker]], though, and can't be considered exactly naive.
** {{spoiler|Except when she loses her memory, then she fits the trope perfectly.}}
Line 69:

* Kes from ''[[Star Trek: Voyager]]'' though her past is well-explained ({{spoiler|if not her subsequent [[Face Heel Turn]]}}) given that she's only lived a couple of years when the crew encounters her.
* River from ''[[Firefly (TV series)|Firefly]]'', who was tricked into leaving home for [[Playing with Syringes|the]] [[School for Scheming|Academy]] and can't go ''back'' home because her rescue by her brother turned them both into hunted fugitives. She's now both psychic and insane, and she was already a genius polymath, so she definitely knows more about what goes on than anyone else but she's not equipped to tell anyone about it in a non-cryptic fashion. Also, she can shoot people dead without looking at them and take out entire rooms of enemies with [[Waif Fu]].
** After Serenity, it seems she's getting better. Not 100% better (she still reads minds) but better than before.
* Natsuki in ''[[Go Go Sentai Boukenger]]'' has a couple of [[Spider Sense]] moments, so far a part you wonder if [[The Powers That Be]] ''forgot'' about the skull thingy way back in episode one, but when her powers are used against the Boukengers by bad guys, you get mass destruction. It's... really more trouble than it's worth.
