** Though one was [[Jerkass|quite reluctant]] to do so.
* In ''[[Princess Tutu]]'' there's Autor, an annoying, geeky character who seems to care very little about other people. However, {{spoiler|when an axe-wielding man tries to cut off Fakir's hands to stop him from finishing the story}}, Autor pushes him out of the way and uses nothing more than a book and his bare hands to defeat the man. ...He appears to faint right afterwards, but it still shows that there's more to him than may meet the eye at first.
* Rachel from ''[[Baccano!]]!'' spends the majority of the [[Traintop Battle|Flying Pussyfoot]] hijack/massacre saving lives and rescuing hostages entirely unprompted, even though it was her job as an [[Knowledge Broker|information gatherer]] to lay low and stay ''out'' of trouble. She got an injured leg and hand for her effort, but [[Worth It|her conscience is clean.]]
* In the first episode of ''[[Code Geass]]'', when a truck crashes, the Britannian civilians merely stand and gawk at the scene, with some casually taking pictures with their cellphones. Lelouch is the only person who bothers actually trying to help.
* Maybe not directly helping anyone, but in ''[[Death Note]]'', when the police surround the news building with their face-concealing helmets, knowing that Kira needs only a face and maybe a name to kill, one reporter on another channel speaks up. "This is right. This is the way a constitutional nation should behave!" He then [[Crowning Moment of Awesome|proceeds to give out his full name on national television]].
