Line 56:
* Natsume's mother from ''[[Master of Martial Hearts]]''. Your average MILF, [[Stepford Smiler|caring and lovely]]. Mute due to an unspecified accident in the past, she communicates by [[Hand Signs|sign language]], using her kids as a proxy. Subverted as {{spoiler|her unspecified accident gets [[The Reveal|revealed]]. She's actually a former [[Action Girl]], who after losing a [[Street Fighter]] expy tournament got [[Disproportionate Retribution|her voice box torn out, her personality mindraped into total obedience, AND was sold into sexual slavery]]. Since then, her whole life had been an attempt to regain a semblance of normality and hatch a complicate [[Revenge by Proxy]] involving her offsprings and the daughter of her captors}}.
* [[Played for Drama]] in [[Bleach]], when {{spoiler|[[Creepy Child|Yukio]] was [http://www.mangareader.net/bleach/471/3 rejected by his parents] because he couldn't speak.}} As years pass {{spoiler|he}} begins to talk normally, but the psychological consequences have completely screwed {{spoiler|him}} up... {{spoiler|enough to accept Ginjou's offer and become a Fullbringer.}}
* The title character of ''[[Komi Can't Communicate]]'' embodies this Trope. A [[Shrinking Violet]] with [[No Social Skills]], she's [[So Beautiful It's a Curse]], in that she's too distant and withdrawn to ever let any of her admirers (as in, every boy in the school) get close. She ''can'' talk if she has to, but throughout the whole series, has only done so a handful of times.
