** Cornelius Robinson is this due to his appearance; since he's actually Lewis in the future, any depiction of him before this is revealed would have spoiled the plot significantly. Before the revelation, he is never actually shown with Wilbur lying and claiming he looks like Tom Selleck to Lewis.
** Lewis himself would have been this to the Robinsons in-universe thanks to his hair, hence Wilbur forcing him to wear the hat.

I intend to move this to the name Flower Angel soon, as the series' name was changed from Flower Fairy.


* ''Animation/FlowerFairy'': While Kukuru himself isn't a spoiler, being a main character who appears straight from the first episode onwards, his dark form in Seasons 3 and 4 is impossible to talk about without spoiling the fact that Princess Fannie was successful in making him her own, severing the ties to the RedStringOfFate connecting Xia An'an and Kukuru and altering it so that it connects Kukuru to her instead.

* In ''Manhua/RavagesOfTime'', it's impossible to post any pictures of Sun Ce or Sun Quan without spoiling two ''key'' plotlines in the story: Sun Quan is the blink-and-you'll-miss-him kid next to Shan Wuling in Volume 6 who reappears and is revealed ''twenty-seven'' volumes later, while "Sun Ce" was actually an impersonator whose real name was Ling Cao and his supposed younger cousin Sun Fu was actually the real Sun Ce [[KingIncognito under a pseudonym]], and the Sun Clan character sheet does ''not'' obscure their identities.

This is the page image, but it's only there due to being a pun, and doesn't actually match the trope definition, so it should not be listed as an example. It might fit on the Spoiler page, which lists in-universe examples of people spoiling media.


* ''ComicStrip/FoxTrot'': Jason becomes a literal version of this for his Halloween costume in one strip; he hand-picks pages from every ''Literature/ASongOfIceAndFire'' book released up to that date, each one containing an unexpected or shocking plot development from the series, with the intent of forcing said spoilers upon people. It backfires when his brother expresses enthusiasm at the idea of not having to actually read "all [[{{Doorstopper}} 10 billion pages]]" of the series.

* [[MamaBear Koda's]] [[MonsterisaMommy mother]] from ''WesternAnimation/BrotherBear'', with her death being the reason why [[KarmicTransformation Kenai got turned into a bear by the Great Spirits]] in the first place.

Doesn't fit the trope; the character's existence has to be a spoiler.


* In ''WesternAnimation/{{Lightyear}}'', Zurg has a lot of spoilers surrounding his backstory, namely that he's an alternate timeline version of Buzz Lightyear.

Spelling/grammar fix(es). Guess I just spoiled the example in a different way.


* ''WesternAnimation/TheBadGoys2022'': Cuddles isn't as important of a character as most of the rest of the film, but he manages to fit the definition of a Walking Spoiler: mentioning anything about his role in the film spoils that Professor Marmalade is evil, as he's his henchman.

There actually is a Walking Spoiler in The Bad Guys, so here's the example.

All of these aren't proper examples, as the character's very existence has to be a spoiler.


* ''WesternAnimation/TheBadGuys2022'' has two characters who fall into this:
** Professor Marmalade is established early on as a publicly beloved philanthropist who wants to help the Bad Guys live better lives. In reality, he's EvilAllAlong and setting the gang up to take the fall for his own crimes.
** Governor Diane Foxington is introduced as a HeroAntagonist, attempting to end the gang's crime spree and insulting them on television. She eventually warms up to them and is revealed to be a ReformedCriminal herself, becoming the gang's EleventhHourRanger when Marmalade turns the world against them.



* Jack-Jack in ''WesternAnimation/TheIncredibles1'' get some screen time, but him having superpowers is the spoiler. It is a LateArrivalSpoiler by the time of the sequel, though.
* The Screenslaver's identity in ''WesternAnimation/Incredibles2'' is portrayed as a mystery at first, but [[SamusIsAGirl "he"]] is later revealed to be Evelyn Deavor.
