Line 48:
* ''[[One Piece]]'''s Sanji has endured a great deal of suffering due to being the Straw Hats' resident [[The Chew Toy|Chew Toy]]. Not content to make him a [[Chivalrous Pervert]] who generally lucks out with women, Oda's killed his fantasies of mermaids with Kokoro, a fat old lady mermaid; dashed his dreams of getting a bounty with a [[Facial Composite Failure|horribly drawn Wanted Poster]]; stole his hope to exploit the [[Power Perversion Potential]] of invisibility through a villain with a one-of-a-kind invisibility Devil Fruit; and, finally, he was stuck on an island of transvestites for two years, where he was briefly forced to go native. However, with the crew's arrival at Fishman Island, Sanji has finally gotten to meet real life, ''attractive'' mermaids, and they ''like'' him. Granted, the [[Nosebleed]] that eventually resulted nearly kills him, but for him it was [[Worth It]].
** Then he met their [[World's Most Beautiful Woman|princess]] and {{spoiler|got cured, being able to hit on her with no problems}}. [[Accidental Innuendo|The biggest bone ever]], people!
* [[No Sense of Direction|Ryoga]], the resident [[The Woobie|woobie]] of ''[[Ranma ½]]'' was given one of these when his virtually -perfectly -suited and accepting girlfriend Akari showed up near the end of the series.
* After thirteen episodes of being Sternbild's [[Chew Toy]], things start looking up for Kotetsu/Wild Tiger in the fourteenth episode of ''[[Tiger and Bunny]]'': he manages to finish the season fourth in the rankings, people start treating him as Barnaby's equal instead of his sidekick, his boss stops acting like a total dick towards him, and {{spoiler|he seems to have gotten an unexpected power boost}}. Of course, given the ominous foreshadowing of {{spoiler|said power upgrade}} and the fact that there's still another twelve episodes to go, [[Yank the Dog's Chain|his luck probably won't last long]]...
* ''[[Puella Magi Madoka Magica]]'': [[Manga]] only: Homura finally reunites with Madoka in some kind of afterlife. The anime however, condemn her to walking the earth for a long, long time, with no guarantee to ever see Madoka again.
** Until {{spoiler|the third movie - but in reuniting with Madoka, Homura may have driven Madoka away from her.}}
