History Main / CorruptionOfAMinor

* ''MahouSenseiNegima'' has Evangeline occasionally being TheVamp around [[CuteShotaroBoy ten year old]] Negi. Such as the time she told him to [[FetishFuel lick her feet]]. This resulted in a MegatonPunch from Asuna.

* In the ''{{Pokemon}}'' Manga, Gold invokes a softer version of this trope; he gets the Togepi egg, and gambles and cheats around it, so when it hatches, it naturally follows such behaviors and becomes mischievous.

* Ignignot and Err teach Meatwad to smoke, drink and peruse pornography in ''AquaTeenHungerForce'' (in part by hitting him with the Foreigner belt's "Dirty White Boy" setting). Meatwad may or may not actually be underage, but he's certainly childish.

* [[PapaBear Big-Daddy]] of ''KickAss'' molds his daughter, 11-year old [[LittleMissBadass Hit-Girl]], into a murderous BadassNormal LaserGuidedTykebomb through TrainingFromHell. She comes out with a love of butterfly knives, an affinity with swords and expert marksmanship with handguns.

* In the ''[[StarWarsExpandedUniverse Han Solo Trilogy]]'', Han and Lando run into Bria Tharen (an old girlfriend of Han's, whom he doesn't really recognize) and Winter Celchu (an aide to Princess Leia), who at the time is around sixteen. Lando points them out, and Han notes that the one doesn't seem friendly, and the other would probably get you in trouble for CorruptionOfAMinor (which might seem to mean an [[{{Lolicon}} entirely different trope]], but given this is the repressive Empire...). Oddly, Winter is about the same age as Leia, whom Han would marry later in life.

** Later she starts doing KissOfTheVampire feedings on him as payment for her training. It's presenting pretty much the way you're thinking, and she gets away with it.
** Then there was the time that [[YaoiFangirl Haruna]] brought Negi to a manga convention, prompting Chisame to have a major FreakOut when he started to read a BoysLove manga.

* In ''{{Kite}}'', Akai and Kanie are in the business of turning orphaned young children into ruthless assassins-for-hire.

** [[spoiler:Draco Malfoy becomes a Death Eater at 16. Voldemort encourages him to murder and torture people. You know, subtle encouragement like threatening to kill Draco's whole family.]]

** In general, lots of girls in the class pull stuff like this on him, especially MarshmallowHell. His ability to be NotDistractedByTheSexy is incredible. Ironically enough, the girls who he's most interested in are the ones that ''don't'' try to pull any seduction type stuff.

* Yayoi from ''KoeDeOshigoto'' does this to her own sister, giving her TheTalk and a lecture on eroge so she could become a good eroge seiyuu. To be fair, Yayoi didn't really push her into the profession and Kanna volunteered.
* Ali Al-Saachez from ''{{Gundam 00}}'' influenced Krugis children (including TheHero) to [[SelfMadeOrphan kill their parents]] to prove their devotion to god. The truth is he just wanted to turn them into his ChildSoldiers.
* [[{{Anime/Monster}} Johan Liebert]] does this, [[CompleteMonster to little surprise]].
* One of [[HayateTheCombatButler Hayate's]] skills is spotting forged art -- because when he was ''four'', his father used him in an art-selling scam, and taught him to not accidentally give the real stuff to the people they were swindling.

* In ''TheProfessional'' (aka ''Leon''), an assassin befriends a 12-year-old girl, who demands that he teach her how to kill. In the American theatrical release, he gives her some lessons, but she never participates in an actual murder. In the overseas version, she helps kill at least a dozen people, making her instant rehabilitation at the end a little dubious.
