== Usually ''tsuntsun'' ("Type A") ==
* ''[[Dept Heaven Apocrypha]]'' has Meria (though she's ''tsungire'' rather than tsundere and she's like this to everyone around her instead of just love interests), who prefers to insult people and be insufferable but is also capable of loving devotion to her friends.
* In the personality profiling inventory known as the Enneagram, "Type 8" is a personality type characterized by high assertiveness, aggression, and independence. According to the Enneagram's theory, when harsh, abrasive Type 8s experience a positive shift in their mindframe (which may or may not be brought on by the actions of others), they take on the traits of "Type 2", characterized by kindness, open-heartedness, caring, and generosity.

** Similarly, Sour Patch Kids. Even the TV commercials state that, "First they're sour, then they're sweet."
** Warheads.

* From [[The Other Wiki]]: Toy manufacturer Tomy Co. has come up with the world's first "tsundere" portable television set, which gives audio guidance with a harsh voice that gradually becomes kinder as the user gets used to the set.

* [[Christopher Titus]] deconstructs the nature of this trope with stories about his [[Ax Crazy]] ex-girlfriend. He remarks in one of his sketches that the transition from ur-nice matron to screaming, sociopathic harridan was signified by nothing more than the smell of ozone and a murderous gleam in her eye, and with no explanation afterwards except "sugar imbalance".

* In ''[[Dept Heaven Apocrypha]]'', Nessiah started out rather violently type-A towards Milanor as the initial attraction started. As the story progressed he became more of a type-B, at least until his [[Trauma Conga Line]] got so draining that he didn't have the spunk left to ''tsuntsun'' at anyone. And then his [[Sanity Slippage]] and [[Clingy Jealous Girl|jealousy issues]] sent him on a hard swerve into [[Yandere]] territory...
** He seems to be getting some of those type-B characteristics back as he recovers, though.
* Pigita from the comic strip ''[[Pearls Before Swine]]'':
{{quote|
'''Pigita:''' I'm sorry, Piggy Wiggy.
'''Pig:''' You don't have to be sorry.
'''Pigita:''' I'll be sorry if I want to be sorry. ''[kicks him over and leaves him lying face-down]'' }}
▲* A storyline in [[Zits (Comic Strip)|Zits]] has Hector flirt with being a 'bad boy' but eventually resolves to stay a 'tootsiepop personality' -- "hard on the outside, but with a soft, chewy center."
* Filipino actress Maricel Soriano helped popularize the [[Tsundere]] archetype in [[The Eighties]] and [[The Nineties]] Filipino films and TV shows. Although the first tsundere was introduced in Japan before her shot to fame in the Philippines, several people didn't know it was the exact term for the archetype until around the 2000's.
▲* A vanity license plate frame reads: "51% sweetheart, 49% bitch -- don't push it!"

Any jokes he might make to the effect of "[[Abuse Is Okay When Its Female On Male]]" is mostly to that of natural selection against him being too dumb to see how much of a bitch she was.
▲* Cats. The type depends on the individual cat, but damn if they can't be bi-polar.
▲* Very common behaviour among children and young teens. No specific examples, please.
* Fiat demonstrated this rather well in a recent ad for the 500 Abarath. A man fantasizes that the car is a beautiful woman who slaps and chews him out for looking at her butt when she was bent over adjusting her shoes, then softens her tone and gets close, at which point the fantasy ends.
