==Examples of [[Slave Rescue]]/[[Slave Rescuer]]==
=== [[Anime]] and [[Manga]] ===
* ''[[One Piece]]''
** Fisher Tiger from ''[[One Piece]]'' started a campaign to end slavery after being [[Made a Slave]] during his journeys. His burning hatred of slavery surpassed his burning hatred of humans so much that he freed ''all'' the slaves he could find, regardless of race.
** In the Dressrosa Arc, Donquixote Doflamingo's biggest asset towards keeping his iron grip on the country was the unique Devil Fruit ability of his henchman Sugar. With merely a touch, Sugar could turn any living creature into a [[Living Toy]], under her complete control, and as an added bonus, this [[Ret-Gone]]d the victim's former identity, ensuring their families and friends would not come looking for them. Over the ten years, Doflamingo ruled Dressrosa, Sugar was very liberal in use of this power, doing so to thousands of citizens and enemies. The flaw in this strategy, however, is that it had [[No Ontological Inertia]]. When the confrontation with Usopp rendered her unconscious, ''every single victim'' was restored, and memories of them were regained. With families reunited and hordes of enemies unleashed, this act not only fits Trope, but [[Slave Revolt]] as well, ultimately bringing Donflamingo's reign down.
** In the Sabaody Archipelago Arc, the Straw Hats' initial plan to rescue Camie from the slave auction was to buy her themselves; however, after [[Upper Class Twit| Saint Charlos]] made a [[Whammy Bid]], they had to resort to plan-B, which was starting a fight. This in turn, led to Luffy assaulting Charlos, the first - [[Can't Stop the Signal| but as a result, not nearly the last]] - time anyone had [[Sudden Principled Stand| dared oppose a World Noble.]]

** ''[[DungeonsIn & Dragons]]''the Forgotten Realms setting. The Harpers try to free slaves whenever practical and possible. The supplement FOR4 ''The Code of the Harpers'' had a story about a Harper who freed a group of slaves from Thayan slavers.
