** Rose has two of hers broken in ''Thinking of Ways''. First she's stunned to learn that Lila lied about knowing Prince Ali... and while investigating, she and the rest of Kitty Section overhear her threatening Marinette. Then when she suggests that Ms. Bustier would be able to help work things out, Marinette reminds her of how their teacher has refused to deal with Chloe's bullying, as well as mishandled other problems with her class. This causes Rose to realize that their teacher isn't quite the wonder worker she'd long regarded her as.

** {{Downplayed}} and partially {{Averted}} [[PlayedForDrama for Drama]] with Team 7, who hold Kakashi in generally high regard despite his many flaws and failings gradually being revealed to them. This becomes a serious issue after they dramatically misinterpret one of his lessons, leading them to [[spoiler:betray Team 10]] during the Chuunin Exams. While this triggers a HeelRealization on Kakashi's end, Shino and Sakura continue to insist that the lessons he taught them remain perfectly valid, resisting his efforts to correct his mistakes.

* ''Fanfic/{{Your Heart a Haven of Thorns|Naruto}}'': Hiruzen encouraged Naruto to regard him as his "Saru-jiji", but his grandfatherly behavior was nothing more than a manipulative facade. Naruto is especially heartbroken to learn that Hiruzen worked to ensure he ''remained'' [[AllOfTheOtherReindeer isolated]]; [[spoiler:Sasuke]] reveals that his father had informed him of how Naruto was a [[SealedInsideAPersonShapedCan jinchuuriki]] and encouraged him to avoid him ''not'' because they feared he was dangerous, but because Hiruzen would interpret that as a potential ''alliance'' between Naruto and their clan.



** {{Subverted}}. Shinji's faith in Misato takes a serious hit after she asks him to pilot Unit-01 again despite promising him that he would never have to return to active duty, and as a result he freezes her out for several days on end. But he eventually forgives Misato after Asuka –- who had her own issues with Misato -- tells him that he was being completely unfair.

* In ''Fanfic/TheLightningStrike'', while Harry didn't exactly have a high opinion of Snape even after learning he was on Dumbledore's side all along, when Skye and Wanda Maximoff learn about Snape's history from Harry they each make it clear that they consider Snape pathetic, as he held on to a childhood grudge and a schoolboy crush for years and chose to vent his anger on students rather than trying to deal with his feelings and move on.
** The sequel ''The Broken Day'' shows how Hermione swiftly became disillusioned with the magical world as a whole in the new timeline, since she learnt that her place was basically to be a housewife and bear children for the war rather than being expected to actually do anything worthwhile in herself.
