* At the end of the first season of ''[[Anime/MobileSuitGundam00 Gundam 00]]'', when the UN Forces attack Celestial Being, Lichty uses his body to shield Christina from a blast fired at the Ptolemy by a GN-X. Due to the injuries he sustained, Lichty's cybernetic body is badly damaged and torn apart, with the boy on the verge of death. It is through this action that Christina (who previously maintained a professional relationship with Lichty despite knowing of his interest in her) realizes how great a guy Lichty really is and returns his feelings of love. Sadly, both die soon afterward.
* Makoto and Chiaki from ''Anime/TheGirlWhoLeaptThroughTime'' are of the {{UST}} variety; Makoto's denial over the fact that Chiaki asked her out sets off the rest of the story as well as culminates in her ultimately accepting her feelings for him.
* The anime finale of ''Manga/CardcaptorSakura'' revolves around Syaoran finally confessing his love for Sakura, who ultimately requites the feeling and spends most of the closing movie trying to do the same. While established as being ObliviousToLove, Sakura's closeness towards Syaoran had been developed throughout the series, and punctuated by being rejected by her own unrecognized crush, Yukito.
* ''LightNovel/{{Toradora}}'': A major plot point that Taiga was confessed to by Kitamura and only started to develop feelings for him after that.

->Love me! Why, it must be requited.

So let's say Alice and Bob have had some UnresolvedSexualTension since forever. EveryoneCanSeeIt - how Bob hopelessly pines after Alice day after day but doesn't dare act on it, because Alice has declared that she has no feelings besides friendship for Bob, which is probably true - until Alice somehow hears from ExactEavesdropping, from another person or from [[LoveConfession Bob himself]] that Bob has feelings for her.
Alice, naturally, is shocked. All of a sudden, she's looking at Bob differently, and is starting to feel something different for him, too!
This trope comes in two flavors:
** Alice already ''had'' feelings for Bob, but it took hearing Bob's feelings for her to realize them.
** Alice begins to develop feelings after she hears that Bob likes her.
This often is a cue for a long-overdue RelationshipUpgrade in a SheIsNotMyGirlfriend situation. A common variation is to have Alice fall for Bob after hearing that he has feelings for her despite Bob not actually having feelings for her; often this set-up is PlayedForLaughs.

* At the end of the first season of ''[[Anime/MobileSuitGundam00 Gundam 00]]'', when the UN Forces attack Celestial Being, Lichty uses his body to shield Christina from a blast fired at the Ptolemy by a GN-X. Due to the injuries he sustained, Lichty's cybernetic body is badly damaged and torn apart, with the boy on the verge of death. It is through this action that Christina (who previously maintained a professional relationship with Lichty despite knowing of his interest in her) realizes how great a guy Lichty really is and returns his feelings of love. Sadly, both die soon afterward.
* Makoto and Chiaki from ''Anime/TheGirlWhoLeaptThroughTime'' are of the {{UST}} variety; Makoto's denial over the fact that Chiaki asked her out sets off the rest of the story as well as culminates in her ultimately accepting her feelings for him.
* The anime finale of ''Manga/CardcaptorSakura'' revolves around Syaoran finally confessing his love for Sakura, who ultimately requites the feeling and spends most of the closing movie trying to do the same. While established as being ObliviousToLove, Sakura's closeness towards Syaoran had been developed throughout the series, and punctuated by being rejected by her own unrecognized crush, Yukito.
* ''Anime/{{Toradora}}'': A major plot point that Taiga was confessed to by Kitamura and only started to develop feelings for him after that.

Anne is still ObliviousToLove (in this case, her own love for Gil) and so she refuses his declaration of love/marriage proposal. (They end up together anyway.)
* In ''[[Literature/TalesOfTheFiveHundredKingdoms The Sleeping Beauty]]'' Godmother Lily doesn't realize she's developed feelings for Jimson until Jimson accidentally calls her "my love".

She decides she loves him too and goes to meet him at the airport when he comes back, only to discover he's got a new girlfriend.
* ''Series/StarTrekDeepSpaceNine'': Odo was friend-zoned by Kira until in "Children of Time," when a parallel version of Odo tells her he loves her. From that point on, Kira begins to develop feelings for him over several more episodes.
