Line 29: * In ''[[Black Cat (manga)\|Black Cat]]'', Woodney, Train's imposter, imagines [[Cute Bruiser\|Eve]] as being a [[Damsel in Distress]] "Senorita" he must protect, and is shown continuing to play the Black Cat role and defend her even at the risk of dying. * Recca from ''[[Flame of Recca]]'' ''is'' this trope. He's the equivalent of an Anime [[Don Quixote]]. He plays at being a [[Ninja]] (though later he ''does'' become one) and determines, right upon first sight of [[Damsel in Distress\|Yanagi]], that he will protect her and follow her every order from now on. He even calls her "Princess," and lets her know that she is now his master. * In ''[[Deadman Wonderland]]'', Ganta quickly becomes this way with apparent [[Shrinking Violet]] Minatsuki, feeling the need to protect her with his life and break out of Deadman Wonderland together with her. However, it turns out that {{spoiler\|Minatsuki is an [[Ax Crazy]] [[~~:Category:Yandere\|~~Yandere]] that actually planned and ''counted on'' The Dulcinea Effect kicking in, and tried to use his protectiveness to injure him and make it easier for her to kill him. To put it in her words: "I'm sorry, but the whole virgin knight thing is fucking disgusting."}} * Yukiteru "Yukki" Amano from ''[[Mirai Nikki]]'' is shown to act this way towards Tsubaki Kasugano, a [[Princess Classic\|beautiful and gentle]] [[Damsel in Distress]] from the Omekata cult, quickly jumping in to save her and escape with her despite having just met her. When given a choice to trust her or his partner Yuno Gasai, he chooses Tsubaki (though you can't blame him, because Yuno ''is'' a psycho [[~~:Category:Yandere\|~~Yandere]]). It's not until {{spoiler\|she makes it obvious that she's actually a [[Manipulative Bitch]] (mixed with [[Woobie, Destroyer of Worlds]]) that wants to kill him that he decides to go back to teaming up with Yuno}}. ** And in the [[Alternate Universe]] spin-off, ''Mirai Nikki: Paradox'', Akise Aru is shown acting this way towards ''[[Ho Yay\|Yukki]]'' himself. Apparently, Akise [[Love At First Sight\|falls in love with Yukiteru at first sight]], and decides to take Yukiteru's place as the Diary Holder so he can fight off all the enemies and allow Yukiteru to [[A God Am I\|become God]]. All this being decided after ''just'' having met Yukiteru. * [[Fanon\|Largely assumed]] to be behind Kuno's obsession with both Akane and the pigtailed girl in ''[[Ranma ½]]''.
