There are a lot of things that are [[Harmful to Minors]]. There are a lot of writers who like to subject kids to them anyway. Whether it's parental abuse or a run in with the [[Monster of the Week]], the child ends up traumatized and left with a creepy tendency to draw whatever it was they saw over... and over... and over...
Line 30 ⟶ 31:
* In the ''[[Neon Genesis Evangelion]]'' movie ''End Of Evangelion'', we briefly see a series of an angry-scribbled crayon pictures, reminding the reader of Shinji and Asuka's horribly traumatic childhoods. Supposedly they were drawn by real-life abused children.
** Also shown in the Director's Cut version of episode 22.
* In ''[[Darker than Black]]'', this is essentially a Russian contractor's remuneration. He seems to [[Complete Monster|really enjoy it.]]
* The small girl in the fourth episode of ''[[Divergence Eve]]'' drew images of the Ghoul on the pavement of an alley with crayon before she got attacked by the [[Monster of the Week]]. {{spoiler|Then she continued to draw it after she was shut in the [[White Void Room]].}}
* In ''[[Yuru-Yuri]]'', Chinatsu's coloring book shows her [[True Colors]]. Unlike most other examples in this page, this is [[Played for Laughs]]. Also, Chinatsu isn't a kid, she's in junior high.
Line 96 ⟶ 97:
* In an episode of ''[[Buffy the Vampire Slayer]]'', a little boy at a hospital compulsively draws a monster that adults can't see. After Buffy kicks its ass, we see a picture he drew of the monster with X-ed out eyes and Buffy standing over it [[Buffy-Speak|all triumphant-like]].
* In an episode of ''[[Supernatural (TV series)|Supernatural]]'', Dean connects with a little boy who's been traumatized into mutism by witnessing his father's drowning. Said boy presents Dean with a picture of swirly dark water, representing the lake, and a red bicycle...
* In an episode of ''[[Battlestar Galactica Reimagined(2004 TV series)|Battlestar Galactica]]'', Hera Agathon horrifies her mother, Sharon, by drawing pictures of the Eye of Jupiter, yellow-haired women, and the number 6. Sharon, meanwhile, had been having dreams of Cylon Number Six taking Hera away from her, and walking into the Opera House on Kobol. It's creepier when you watch the show.
** And she does it ''again'' later in the second half of the season. Her seemingly harmless drawings of "stars" turn out to be {{spoiler|musical notation Kara uses to remember a song from her childhood - "All Along the Watchtower".}} Helo and Athena really need to get their daughter a new hobby, or at least take away Chekhov's Crayons.
* In ''[[Heroes (TV series)|Heroes]]'', Molly Walker suffers from nightmares and continually draws the same symbol in her more nightmarish drawings. Then she was [[Put on a Bus]] and we [[Noodle Incident|never found out]] [[They Wasted a Perfectly Good Plot|what it meant]].
Line 170 ⟶ 171:
* From [[Saturday Morning Breakfast Cereal]] - [http://www.smbc-comics.com/index.php?db=comics&id=606#comic loosely classifiable as an inversion?]
* Some of the far more disturbing scenes in the infamous ''[[Sonichu]]'' can only be described as this, in no small part due to the art style being worse than a 6-year old's first drawing.
* [https://web.archive.org/web/20130828225930/http://www.whatisdeepfried.com/COMIX/Family/PAGE1.html Family Portrait.] Made all the worse by the fact that {{spoiler|the teacher sees what's going on, and ''[[Cassandra Truth|brushes it off]].''}}
