Line 75:
* ''[[Code Lyoko]]'''s Ulrich/Yumi shippers tend to take the flawed character aspects of alternate love interests Sissi (who is canonically outwardly annoying, but does show [[Jerk with a Heart of Gold]] depths) and William (a canonical [[Stalker with a Crush]], but more dark than evil) and exaggerate them beyond recognition until there's ''no'' way they could threaten their beloved ship. Or the writers save themselves the trouble and kill them off, or pair them with each other. All of which is really unnecessary, since both Sissi and William are canonically [[Hopeless Suitor|Hopeless Suitors]] (Sissi from the beginning and William once {{spoiler|he becomes [[Brainwashed and Crazy]].}}) Ulrich/Yumi is in much more danger from [[Unresolved Sexual Tension|Ulrich and Yumi themselves]] than outside forces.
* There is an obnoxious tendency on the part of [[Balto|Kodi/Dusty]] shippers to kill off the characters Ralph and Kirby; in the first case Dusty/Ralph is ''canon'' according to [[Word of God]] with Kodi/Kirby just being a consequence of mild [[Ho Yay]]. And don't think about shipping Kodi/Dusty ''and'' Kirby/Ralph; it's a ticket to the afterlife. That said, many people also kill [[The Scrappy|Stella]] (the female goose from the second sequel, which is also from where all the characters mentioned in this paragraph come from), and whereas they pair Boris with someone else or not is irrelevant.
* Many [[Hey Arnold!|Helga/Arnold]] shippers hate and despise Lila for Arnold's former crush on her throughout the last part of the series. Which is odd, because Lila did nothing but gently and repeatedly ''turn Arnold down'', and even ''helped'' Helga kiss him after getting her to admit her crush. Granted, it ''has'' been said by [[Word of God]] that Lila is really [[Playing Hard to Get|subconsciously stringing Arnold along]] due to a repressed sexual side, but that still doesn't make her [[Ron the Death Eater|the Evil Bitch from Hell!]]
** Ruth and Summer also don't get spared from this, despite the fact that Ruth was insignificant to Arnold after season 2 and Summer was just a one-shot character who was just using Arnold to begin with and already had a boyfriend.
* Dawn from ''[[Ka Blam!]]!'' probably gets a lot of hate from Henry/June shippers, when in her first (and probably only) appearance, Henry started flirting with her. [[Ship Tease|June was not pleased.]]
