* Yuno Gasai from ''[[Mirai Nikki]]'' wasn't always such an [[Ax Crazy|psycho]] [[:Category:Yandere|girl]]. When {{spoiler|Yukiteru and Minene go three years to the past}} It turns out that despite her abuse, she still was hopeful and idealistic.
{{quote|''' {{spoiler|2nd World}} Yuno''': When did I become so twisted? }}
* Balalaika from ''[[Black Lagoon]]'' [http://www.animepaper.net/art/47003/ultimate-balalaika used to be]{{Dead link}} a pretty, young and seemingly friendly girl, whose dream was to do her family proud in the Olympics as a sharpshooter. That is...until the [[War Is Hell|Afghanistan War]].
* Surprisingly, ''Guts from [[Berserk]]'' was actually a sweet and innocent kid. The downfall started when he was three and his foster mother Sys died of the plague, leaving him to be raised by his sadistic and hateful foster father Gambino. Even after being trained for war and serving on the front lines, he was still a pretty innocent kid, until the night after his first battle when Gambino {{spoiler|sold him to another soldier for three silver coins, a soldier who [[Shotacon|liked little boys in the wrong way]], resulting in a traumatic rape despite Guts' best efforts to fight the man off. The following day when Guts coldly murdered the man was the point of no return. When he was finally forced to kill Gambino in self-defense and was driven out of the camp by a mob intent on killing him, he became bitter, hateful and cut off from other people.}}
* [[Names to Run Away From Really Fast|Millions Knives]], the [[Big Bad]] of ''[[Trigun]]''. Anime him...kinda, but the psycho tendencies were there even before he flipped out and became a full-blown [[Creepy Child]]. Manga Knives...had [[Go Mad from the Revelation|something much better]] to flip out over, and before that, just ''listen'' to the kid.
Line 107:
** ''[[Mobile Suit Gundam SEED|Gundam SEED]]'': Compare the Athrun in the flashbacks, who believed that Earth and ZAFT would never go to war, with the bitter, cynical soldier we all know and love. Also, it seems that the entire universe is bent on turning main character Kira into one of these. He gets it back mostly.
** ''[[Mobile Suit Gundam SEED Destiny|Gundam SEED Destiny]]'': Shinn Asuka was a nice kid who loved his family, and especially his little sister. Then they all died. In front of him. Goodbye [[Cheerful Child]], hello [[The Berserker|Berserker]]. His friend Rey Za Burrell is also an example; flashbacks show him as a [[Cute Shotaro Boy]] with a love of the piano, and nothing like the [[Utopia Justifies the Means]] [[Well-Intentioned Extremist]] and [[Manipulative Bastard]] he is today.
** See [http://whitebasestowaway.tumblr.com/post/16687770401/reichfantastic-little-haman-with-kishiria-d the sweet-looking pre-teen girl]{{Dead link}} in this illustration? That's Haman Kahn of ''[[Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam|Zeta Gundam]]'' and ''[[Mobile Suit Gundam ZZ|Gundam ZZ]]''. [[Manipulative Bitch|Yes]], [[Magnificent Bitch|THAT]] [[Woman in Black|Haman]] [[Dark Action Girl|Kahn]].
* Raven/Gilbert Nightray of ''[[Pandora Hearts]]'' was absolutely adorable as a child. Following his [[Break the Cutie]] event he became a brooding, serious man with major issues. Oz could count too.
* Tetsunosuke and Suzu of ''[[Peacemaker Kurogane]]''.
