Line 53:
== [[Anime]] and [[Manga]] ==
* ''[[Sailor Moon]]'' dedicated its third season to a [[MacGuffin]] hunt involving "Pure Hearts", a crystalline object residing within people with a pure and just dedication towards a goal. Not played entirely straight in the fact that even bitter, cynical characters have them as well.
** The bitter, cynical characters have "Pure Hearts" because they're ''purely'' bitter and cynical. [[Pure Is Not Good|"Pure" is not the same as "Good".]]
** Heck, Sailor Moon herself is Purity Personified.
* In ''[[The World God Only Knows]]'', Tsukiyo is seen as this, {{spoiler|especially by the goddess [[Gender Blender Name|Vulcan]], who shares many of the same [[The Ojou|refined]] sensibilities she does.}}
Line 58 ⟶ 59:
 
== [[Literature]] ==
* Penelope from ''[[Odyssey|The Odyssey]]''. She was never was tempted by her suitors and worked hard to outwit them so they'd leave her alone. She also spent most of her time in mourning. Slightly to be expected since she's the image of an ideal Greek woman.
 
== [[Tabletop Games]] ==
* ''[[Warhammer 4000040,000]]'' has [[Winged Humanoid|Sanguinius]], Primarch of the Blood Angels, complete with golden armour, gargantuan silver-white wings, badass [[Papa Wolf]] trait and [[Heroic Sacrifice]] without ever swaying from his path, all the while being beloved by all for his nobility and generosity, which became something of his nickname; the 'All-Beloved'.
 
== [[Video Games]] ==
* Kairi, and the other six Princesses of Heart in ''[[Kingdom Hearts]].''
** {{spoiler|Also Ventus, since Master Xehanort took away the darkness from his heart.}}
* Subverted with Sera from [[Digital Devil Saga]]. She fits the criteria of being a [[Mystical Waif]], a [[MacGuffin Girl]] and [[The Ingenue]] - mostly because {{spoiler|she can talk to God. But this turns out to bite her in the ass: she was partially responsible for God absorbing the Earth's data; created [[A Is]] of people she knew (which were eventually used in a survival-of-the-fittest experiment to create powerful warriors) and was generally manipulated by her own mother, Serph and a lot of the other scientists. She also [[Took a Level Inin Badass|takes a level in badassery]] in the second game.}}
* Talim, from the [[Soul Series|Soul Calibur Series]], is by far the most pure character in the cast, and yet that doesn't stop her from being a [[Badass]] [[Cute Bruiser]].
* [[Dojikko|Viki]] from the ''[[Suikoden]]'' series.
