Line 44:
* One of the key reasons some [[Yu-Gi-Oh!|Seto Kaiba]] fans find Yugi and his friends unlikable. (The other? [[Ron the Death Eater]])
** This trope also sums up the attitude to non-dueling main characters who are sometimes seen as useless or unneccessary in a world where [[Duels Decide Everything]].
* One of the reasons why many fans like Mikoto more than main heroine Index in ''[[ToA AruCertain Majutsu noMagical Index]]''. Sure, their difference in personality has somethngsomething to do with it, but the fact that Index is a more passive and usually non-combat character while Mikoto is an [[Action Girl]] definitely had impact.
** Thing is, Index can be [[Badass Adorable]] when she wants to. People just ignore that.
* Out of the fans of ''[[Fairy Tail]]'' who prefer Erza over Lucy, a good portion of them were heavily influence by this.
* If you follow an anime series in which the heroine is bullied or abused (specially by her classmates or her family) and doesn't resort to beating them up as a result... please think twice before reading the comments and/or reading about it on blogs. Mikan from ''[[Gakuen Alice]]'', Tohru from ''[[Fruits Basket]]'' and Nanako of ''[[Oniisama e...]]'' are specially hated by stupid watchers who blame ''them'' for the hardships they go through "because they're weak whores who don't fight back".
* Shouma Takakura from ''[[Mawaru Penguindrum]]'' gets potshots that range from mere affectionate jokes to straight-up bashing for not being as action-geared as his older brother Kanba. {{spoiler|Even more so after episode 19.}}
