History BadassAdorable / WesternAnimation

* The 5th season of ''WesternAnimation/SamuraiJack'' introduces Ashi, who was initially one of the titular character's enemies, especially since it was revealed that she's [[spoiler:one of the Daughters of Aku]], but after her redemption when Jack told her the truth about her old life, she became much more benevolent than she was initially modelled as before, and even then, she was still able to fight others with her combat skills, [[spoiler:which includes both her mother the High Priestess and her father Aku]].

** Lapis Lazuli also counts, being a [[DoesNotLikeShoes barefoot]], ethereal-looking Gem who's scarcely taller than Steven and wears an outfit with a ribbon on it. She can manipulate and control ''the entire planet's ocean at once, even while injured.''

** While the Kanker Sisters are normally a TerribleTrio of half-siblings who are often [[AbhorrentAdmirer very amorous]] towards the Eds (practically speaking), May has proven herself to be the least malicious among them (especially supported by the fact that her crush on Ed is the most genuine from them), and even then, she can still kick butt whenever she can, whether she's with her sisters or not.

** Among the titular Eds, Ed himself best represents this trope for them, as he possesses a formidable amount of physical strength, to which he uses it to help or support his own best friends in almost any situation, while still having a heart that's as comparable as a puppy's (no matter the breed).

** The Mask is more adorable than Stanley as he is confident and unafraid who is a charming man who does get most women attracted to him despite how things went at first. He also cares about his friends which he is a sweetheart to them. He can also act like a child at times which makes him even more adorable but he is a powerful Reality Warper and intelligent genius as he uses both of these things to fight off the supervillains who attack his friends and the people who live in Edge City with him therefore showing he is a dangerous man when on a task to be a superhero.

-->'''[[Film/WaynesWorld Garth]]:''' Did you ever find Bugs Bunny attractive when [[AttractiveBentGender he put on a dress and played girl bunny]]?\\

** Same goes for Beast Boy; goofy, none too bright and the comic relief of the team; he can also [[Animorphism turn into some of nature's most dangerous animals]].

** Same goes for Beast Boy. Sure, he's goofy, none too bright and the comic relief of the team; he can also [[Animorphism turn into some of nature's most dangerous animals]].

* The Wattersons from ''WesterenAnimation/TheAmazingWorldOfGumball'' are absolutely adorable cats and rabbits (and a goldfish),who survive all kinds of bizarre situations and are the most likely to save the day whenever something threatens all of Elmore,or the world.

%%* ''WesternAnimation/ShirtTales'', by 80's Saturday morning standards at any rate.

** The CuteKitten TricksterTwins the Thunderkittens can outwit giant trolls by dosing themselves with a fruit that induces CaffeineBulletTime and leading them straight into carefully laid tripwire.

** [[spoiler:And then there's Betty.]]

** [[TheHero Aang]] himself. Sweet and innocent, with eyes some {{anime}} characters would kill for, refuses to eat meat or kill even the most evil...and he can go [[BewareTheNiceOnes Avatar State]] on you if you [[BerserkButton hurt one of his]] [[TrueCompanions friends]].

* Webby Vanderquack in ''WesternAnimation/DuckTales2017''. She's a young and adorable pre-teen who has a fun and cute personality who loves her friends and families and is very thrilled by anything magic and cute but on the same time she's trained to be a [[OneManArmy One-Girl-Army]] you don't want to mess with. She's definitly capable of kicking some asses.

** The main duo themselves could arguably count. Joey's a scrawny NiceGuy while AP's a talking sock puppet, but when they're together, they're Atomic Puppet -- a superhero duo able to kick the asses of any evildoer who comes to Mega City. Not to mention, the latter [[ForcedTransfomation used to be]] Captain Atomic, one of the greatest and most powerful superheroes in the show's world.

* Mike, Julie and Tennie have shades of this in ''{{WesternAnimation/Motorcity}}'', but it's R.O.T.H. who fits the "adorable" part best. Although usually timid, he/it has shown to be capable ("badass") in a few episodes.

* Stitch from ''WesternAnimation/LiloAndStitch'' and specially in ''WesternAnimation/LiloAndStitchTheSeries''. He is a blue koala-like RidiculouslyCuteCritter that acts like a dog most of the time. He is also strong enough to stop a spaceship from taking off just by grabbing it.

* Wendy Vanderquack in ''WesternAnimation/DuckTales2017''. She's a young and adorable pre-teen who has a fun and cute personality who loves her friends and families and is very thrilled by anything magic and cute but on the same time she's trained to be a [[OneManArmy One-Girl-Army]] you don't want to mess with.
