** In the [[Fullmetal Alchemist (anime)|2003 anime version]], this is the reason for Envy's hatred of the Elric brothers; he is the homunculus created by their father in an attempt to revive his firstborn son, and he was cast aside when he came back as a "monster".
* Part of [[Aloof Big Brother|Sesshomaru]]'s backstory in [[Inuyasha]] is that he resented his father for being disappointed in his heartless son Sesshomaru, while giving his life to save the infant Inuyasha (and his mother).
* Part of the backstory of [[Big Bad]] King of Gallia in ''[[
* In ''[[+Anima]]'', the Royal Family of Sailand is a perfect example of Favoritism. {{spoiler|In fact, it's most likely why Husky was named Crown Prince out of birth order.}}
* [[Neon Genesis Evangelion]] gives us an odd case. Gendo shows no love or affection to Shinji, but is almost uncharacteristically fond of Rei, who he treats as an adoptive daughter. {{spoiler|The reason he's fond of Rei however is because she resembles his dead wife, and in the end, both the children are little more than pawns to him toward resurrecting her. Before his death however, Gendo admits that he secretly held great love for Shinji in his heart, but was simply too afraid to face it.}}
