'''Madoka:''' Um... that's-

'''Sayaka:''' As if. Not with such violent tendencies, nasty looks, gloomy air, and the worst-possible personality. We're talking about the worst and lowest person of all who betrayed Madoka.

:Her ''My Magic is Fortune Telling'' features this very prominently.

* Turned [[Up to Eleven]] in ''[[Kyon: Big Damn Hero]]'', with Kyon completely unaware of the affections of {{spoiler|Haruhi, Mikuru, Nagato (sort of), Kanae, Tsuruya, and many of the girls in his school. Until his shoe locker is filled with notes from those girls, that is.}} He's also incapable of spotting the [[Polyamory|polyamorous]] relationship that several other characters share. Even ''Mikuru'' worked that one out.

* Frodo in [[The Very Secret Diaries]] is oblivious to the fact that every single member of the Fellowship wants in his pants, and tries to flee to Mordor when he figures it out.

{{quote|Sam coming too. Good thing, as will enable me to have more of those platonic, brotherly foot massages he's so good at.}}

* Take any franchise where there are multiple love interests bet that there will be at least '''one''' character who is oblivious to the affections of another notable character. This is also applicable to original author made characters as well but this is harder to develop so it is rarely done well.

* In ''[[Hunting the Unicorn]]'', Blaine's trust in people and his inability to gauge when people are interested combines this into [[Fridge Horror]]: If Blaine didn't get the picture when Kurt was all but throwing himself at him, nor when his old high school friend tried to invoke a [[Dance of Romance]], [[Fridge Horror|it's only logical]] that he has no clue when '' {{spoiler|someone is stalking him}}''.

* Rainbow Dash in the ''[[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic]]'' [[Shipping]] fanfic "In the Rain". Twilight Sparkle's "hints" grow progressively more elephantine, from rhapsodising about storms using terms that also apply to Dash, to straight-out telling her about lesbianism and how it's not too uncommon in Canterlot. In the [[Multiple Endings|ending with the]] [[Relationship Upgrade]], we get this gem:

{{quote|'''Twilight''': Dash, has anypony ever had a crush on you?

'''Dash''': I don't know. Maybe?

** Twilight is more often on the receiving end of this trope; for instance, in the fic "[http://www.fimfiction.net/story/2385 Twilight Learns a Secret]", she got several months into her relationship with Dash before she even realised she was ''in'' one. And that was only because RD kissed her, and then spent several pages explaining the situation. Possibly with diagrams.

{{quote|''Kissing Lily was being touched with purpose but even that was sort of a joke, and now he's thinking about kissing, and is that why Sirius has licked his lips twelve times in the past thirty seconds? "Oh," Remus says suddenly. "I get it. I'm rocks."''}}
