*** Only if you're actually controlling her. Her AI leaves a lot to be desired and with the lowest HP of the party she ends up needing to be revived way too much.

** As with Colette, though, Cheria actually ended up as the ''fifteenth'' highest-scoring character in the latest ''Tales'' poll.

* ''[[Tales of Legendia]]'''s Shirley Fennes. Fans just hate her for her voice, her [[Damsel in Distress]] tendencies, and that one scene where fans take it like [[:Category:Yandere|"Senel, either you love me, or I'll nuke your world."]] [[Base Breaker|There are quite a few who like her though.]]

* As for ''[[Tales of the Abyss]]'', Anise gets scrappy points for {{spoiler|her involvment in Ion's [[Heroic Sacrifice|death]] and being forced to be [[The Mole|a mole]] by [[Corrupt Church|Mohs]]. Did I mention Anise was [[Toy Ship|clearly in love]] with Ion?}} Also, she gets additional scrappy points for being too [[Easily Forgiven]] for her transgressions compared to what Luke goes through after his screwup.

* In the ''[[.hack]]'' series, there's a few Scrappies, but generally at the top of the list is Piros III in the first set of games: An over the top [[Lord Error-Prone]] twit with a grating voice and is one of the slowest characters to have in the party, and the tendency to call the main character "He Of Fair Eyes", and other [[Ye Olde Butcherede Englishe]] doesn't help to endear him to the party. Nor does his tendency to fall for [[Catgirl|Mia's]] tricks at least three times. Some think his ''GU'' version is a case of [[Rescued from the Scrappy Heap]] with his awesome theme music, and thankfully much more amusing antics.

** Saku of the Sakubo duo is another one, a condescending [[Tsundere]] that borders on [[:Category:Yandere|Yandere]] that is obsessed with the resident pretty-boy, and is nothing but a jerkass to Haseo over an imagined rivalry - ''especially'' after [[Ho Yay|Endrance declares his love for Haseo]], and was one of the hardest characters to boost relationship values, and that at first she seems to bully the much sweeter Bo. {{spoiler|The fact it turns out she is Bo's second personality and her genuine concern when he gets in trouble softens the impact}}.

** Atoli tends to fall into this often as well, though more often in the Western fanbase than others. Opinions range from her being [[The Woobie]], to her being an [[Extreme Doormat]].

** Let's not forget Gaspard. Oh boy, more pointless sidetracking with a loud, whiny, useless, pathetic, and all around unlikable piece of garbage. Just what we all wanted. Even his appearance is obnoxious.
