Line 56:
* Dozle Zabi and his wife, Princess Zenna, from ''[[Mobile Suit Gundam]]''. [[The Brute|Just look at the guy.]] To his credit, he's [[Happily Married|a loving husband]], a [[Daddy's Girl|doting father to his daughter Minerva]] and [[A Father to His Men]].
** Indeed, [[Genius Bruiser|Dozle]] is [[Evil Chancellor|the]] [[Nietzsche Wannabe|most]] [[The Vamp|normal]] [[The White Prince|guy]] in [[Deadly Decadent Court|their]] [[Royally Screwed-Up|whole]] [[Dysfunction Junction|family]].
* ''[[One Piece]]''
** Wapol
** There is also King Nepture and his wife Princess Otohime. This is what [http://read.mangashare.com/One-Piece/chapter-611/page010.html he looks like] and what [http://read.mangashare.com/One-Piece/chapter-622/page005.html she looks like]. We can see where [[Ugly Guys Hot Daughter|Princess Shirahoshi]] gets her looks from.
*** Adding to the fishmen and merfolk concept; Keimi and Hachi. They aren't technically a couple, but Keimi - a cute mermaid - does seem to have a crush on Hachi, who is a six armed octopus fishman and far older than her. This is one of the [[No Hugging, No Kissing|few canon crushes]], by the way.
*** Pretty much every fishman/mermaid and so far merman/mermaid couple falls under this. Also considering the almost random nature of seafolk genetics, and the fact that Queen Otohime was somehow able to give birth to Shirahoshi, this might also fall under [[Bizarre Alien Reproduction]] and [[Bizarre Alien Biology]].
** "Ugly" might be the wrong word to describe Vinsmoke Judge (after all, he's never been seen without his helmet, which covers the upper half of his face), but he's a brutish and ferocious-looking man. His wife Sora (now deceased) was a beautiful woman with perfect skin, dark blue eyes, and wavy shoulder-length blonde hair. This was clearly a case of [[Beauty Equals Goodness]], for while Sanji despises his father [[Abusive Parent|(for good reason)]] he was very close to his mother.
* In just about every single work by Adachi Mitsuru, the heroine's parents are this. The heroine gets all of her looks from her mom since it just wouldn't make sense for anything male to want to get in your pants when you get your looks from "that." Heck, sometimes it would only make sense if the mom had cheated somewhere in their marriage. This would, of course, make the heroine [[The Ugly Guy's Hot Daughter]].
* Played with in [[Tenjho Tenge]]. While Souchiro's mother Makiko Natsume is [[Hot Mom|naturally beautiful]], [[Good Scars, Evil Scars|the horrible scars]] [[Scars Are Forever|marring her face]] make for a strange inversion of the trope since {{spoiler|her ex-husband Sohaku}} is now more attractive than her.
