# Characters.TheIncredibleHercules: She's incredibly resentful of the curse that makes her appear reptilian, and she looks to break it at the earliest opportunity. When Athena was turned to stone and it was broken, her first statement to Amadeus was that she'd finally let him love her.
# Characters.TeenTitans2003Raven: When she met the titans for the first time, Raven was reluctant to befriend them because she felt she was a freak. It took Cyborg point out to her how weird are the others too to make her feel better.
# VisualNovel.MinotaurHotel: Your reassurances eventually make Asterion like his body and see himself as human rather than a monster, and reassure Storm in turn.
# Recap.HowIMetYourMotherAndHowIMetYourFatherTrustArcChapterThirteen: When Kyoko asks Makoto if he finds her hideous because of her scars, he assures her that he doesn't find her hideous and was only shocked by them because he thought they were recent injuries. He even goes as far as to hold her hands.
# Characters.TheBunnyGraveyard: He's ashamed of his true form in being related to Silvie, and just wants freedom from her.
# Characters.MarvelComicsSpecies: Male Dire Wraiths don't like their default appearance, and use their shapeshifting to hide it.
# Webcomic.WhiteNoise: Wren has a long, fluffy, white Prehensile Tail, but in the States, anything that marks one as a mutant is a killing offense. Anna reacts with a Squee when she touches it when Wren is sleeping.
# StarCrossedLovers.AnimeAndManga: It looks like Vinsmoke Sanji and Charlotte Pudding are heading towards this, as they fell in pretty much Love at First Sight and in other circumstances they would've been an absolutely perfect match... yet not only their marriage was arranged by two horrible people (Sanji's Archnemesis Dad Vinsmoke Judge and Pudding's Evil Matriarch Charlotte "Big Mom" Linlin), but it would force Sanji to leave both his beloved True Companions and his lifelong dream to reach the All Blue, essentially making him abandon everything he's ever stood for. And then it turns out that Pudding is a Mommy's Little Villainess anyway, and played up the Nice Girl act to sucker Sanji AND his family into her mother's plans. And then Sanji still giving her a kind comment on the Third Eye that Pudding hates so much has made her go through a sobbing Villainous Breakdown and not killing him.
# Characters.CodexEquusMoonRayVaughoof: Moon Ray's initial aversion to manifesting traits of other Pony tribes came from not wanting to look like a "freak show". He gets over it by the time he becomes a Prince, as he has taken to manifesting Musical Pony and Sea Pony traits.
# Blog.TwilightUnbound: It's shown here that Twilight absolutely despises her Werelight Shine form.She even tries to hide her beast form from her date to the prom. When her hood slips off, he thinks she looks beautiful. She's quite touched.
# Literature.PerdidoStreetStation: Grimnebulin is totally hot for his girlfriend, who has a scarab for a head. He reflects at length about how his revulsion turns him on. There are also bordellos that cater to people who want to have sex with Remade, who have had Body Horror alterations done to them. These are also technically illegal and sometimes used by the New Crobuzon government to entrap and blackmail citizens into becoming spies.
# Literature.GrimmTales: David's bullying can lead Jason to acting this way. He gets better when Zane reminds him that...
# Characters.TouhouSeirensenUndefinedFantasticObject: Inverted; having those alien, misshapen wings? She's perfectly fine with that. But having her Shapeshifter Default Form look like a cute human girl? Now that is (apparently) freaky by youkai standards! Enough so for her to have spent her entire life hiding it from everyone else. Complete with this trope comes Sanae declaring Nue the coolest thing ever and trying to befriend her, and complete with the inversion of the trope comes Nue feeling that Sanae's lack of fear of her validates her Freakiness Shame.
# Characters.FlowerKnightGirlBergamotValley: Subverted. Her experience with being outcasted for her horns may suggest that she's not fond of them, but in actuality she does in fact like the horns, and is particularly overjoyed at anybody else sharing the sentiment.
# Characters.DarkSoulsCovenants: Gwyndolin considers himself "repulsive". While we can't actually see his face and his snake feet are rather disturbing (and some people might find his enforced femininity disconcerting in a male character), it's hard to call him "ugly" by any stretch. It's likely self-loathing at not measuring up to his father's standards of masculine strength.
# Expy.AnimeAndManga: Chapter 3 introduces a shy girl with short hair named Shinobu, an obvious expy of the character with the same name of Love Hina. And then there is Negima! Magister Negi Magi's Setsuna Sakurazaki expy, Kuroumaru, an easily flustered but overly serious shinmeiryuu master who is ashamed to be less than human and hunts his own kind, has been cast off from his family, and has an androgynous build with a black side ponytail. He even has Ship Tease with a cheerful, careless Konoe, for god's sake!
# Characters.{{Halvgudene}}: of her black, poisonerous blood.
# Characters.PuyoPuyoCompileMajor: Save for the time in Madou Monogatari: Big Kindergarten Kids, where a little Arle points them out and upsets her, it's averted, big time. She's quite proud of her draconic features, going so far as to say her horns are cool when Lidelle tried to ask her about them. To quote Draco in the international version of Minna... Draco: "Beauty queens are soooo passé. Girls with big horns are the big thing now."
# Webcomic.{{Avialae}}: Gannet hates his wings and has an identity crisis when he learns that he's not fully human, but Bailey thinks that he's beautiful and his wings are cool.
# Recap.TheAmazingWorldOfGumballS3E20TheShell: Penny thinks her true form is ugly and calls herself a monster. Gumball tries to tell her she's beautiful, but she is too upset to listen (even though when she's finally alone in the woods, she admitted to Gumball that she knew Gumball wasn't trying to hurt her feelings and was more upset of what people would think of her and Gumball together).
# SelfDemonstrating.DraculaVladTepes: Be that as it may, I am a one woman vampire. Lisa was the only one who saw the goodness in me.
# Literature.AutobiographyOfRed: Geryon is embarrassed by his wings and often hides them under a trenchcoat. Much later, Ancash's admiration of them sets off the final subplot of Geryon's descent into the volcano.
# Characters.OnePieceSanji: How Pudding expected Sanji to react to her Third Eye on their wedding day, so she could kill him and the Vinsmokes according to Big Mom's plan. However, she and her family didn't expect Sanji to be kind enough as to actually compliment it.

# Literature.ArtamonsTears: While the drakhaol is definitely not pretty, more than a few characters express awe at it's majesty and power. Gavril's angsting about it is perfectly justified, though, since it gives him a Horror Hunger and makes him ugly.
# Characters.NegimaAlaAlba: She's ashamed of her white wings, which the crow demon tribe believe means she's a sign of ill omen. Her friends tell her the beautiful white wings make her look like an angel and she relaxes about it in front of them, though Eva shows it's still a bit of a sore spot. Setsuna: This is my true form. I'm a monster, just like them. Don't misunderstand, my desire to protect Ojou-sama is real! I've just kept this a secret... because I was afraid she would hate me in this ugly form... Asuna: What are you talking about? I think they're cool!
# Literature.TheJenniferMorgue: When half-Deep One assassin Ramona Random drops the illusion protecting her true, fishy appearance, she expects protagonist Bob Howard to be repelled. He's anything but. (From a practical point of view, this is mainly because she's part of a subspecies specifically engineered not to be repulsive to humans, because the Deep Ones do have an occasional need to interact with them.)
# WarriorCats.Tropes0ToG: Brightheart feels like this after a dog attack gouges out her eye and leaves half her face bald and scarred. Cloudtail, her mate, insists that she's still beautiful and delivers a Death Glare to anyone who would indicate otherwise. In later books, younger cats who have grown up knowing Brightheart remark that they don't even notice the scars, and are a bit surprised when cats from other Clans point them out. By that point, Brightheart has made peace with her appearance, though she still flinches when one young kitten refers to her as "that ugly cat".
# Characters.FuturamaPhilipJFry: He considers Leela to be the most beautiful woman he's ever seen, including and especially because of her one giant eye.
# Characters.XMenEvolution: While Kurt is ashamed of his appearance, he soon seems to become more relaxed about it around other mutants. He's still afraid of letting normal people see his true face, constantly wearing a device that projects a hologram around him to make him look like a normal person in public, but this trope is invoked when Amanda Sefton convinces him to turn off his image inducer as she likes his real self.
# BrokenBird.AnimeAndManga: And in 862, another deeply-hurt woman appeared... and her name is Charlotte Pudding. A childhood of family and strangers alike calling her Third Eye freakish and referring to her as "a monster" made her snap and become the monster they all called her. Pudding grew as Big Mom's Mommy's Little Villain and one Hell of a Bitch in Sheep's Clothing, willing to get her arranged groom Sanji and his family all murdered... but Sanji calling her third eye beautiful affects her so much that she collapses in tears.
# Characters.BornOfHellsKitchen: He compulsively wears glasses because his vacant gaze upsets and freaks people.
# Fanfic.DreamingOfSunshine: When Team 7 are in Taki, some differing circumstances result in them meeting Fuu, another of the Jinchuriki.
# Characters.ThornUniverseVampiresAndWerewolves: He's ashamed of his facial scars and because of them, doesn't believe anyone would fall in love with him.
# Characters.FlowerKnightGirlBlossomHill: Admits at high affection that she had experienced many "unfunny episodes" regarding her rabbit ears, and had only grown to like them after her close friend, Japanese Silver Grass, started wearing a rabbit-themed hoodie to make her feel better.
# Characters.HigurashiWhenTheyCryProtagonists: She has something of a complex about her horns. Rena thinks they're cute (but then again, Rena thinks a lot of things are cute). The only one to react negatively is Takano, and even she probably didn't really care. It's implied that her complex comes not from her current-day friends' reactions (or lack thereof) but rather the fact that when she took on human form to mediate between demons and humans, she could not hide her horns. They are a large part of the reason why she was chosen as a sacrifice.
# Characters.SoulcaliburV: At the end of Story Mode, he grabs Pyrrha's malfested hand after she offers it to him and starts pulling it back.
# Heartwarming.NotAlwaysRight: This one, in a way. The guy has an embarrassing long scar on his stomach, and is scared of what his girlfriend would think of it. Instead of freaking out, though, she thinks it's awesome.
# PlayingWith.CoveredWithScars: Bob's extensive scarring doesn't mean he's a good fighter, it means he's a bad one who keeps getting beaten up. The impact of Bob's disfigurements on his social and professional life is explored, and he suffers from FreakinessShame. Bob has severely limited mobility and constant pain from his permanent injuries.
# Characters.RabiRibi: Her crippling loneliness and introversion are suddenly cast in a different light upon learning that her bunny ear "headdress"... isn't. She probably believed she was the only bunny girl in existence, and would've been right if it weren't for Noah kickstarting the plot with Erina's transformation.
# VideoGame.MightAndMagicClashOfHeroes: Aidan's left hand is deformed with evil. Jezebeth likes it.
# Characters.MyMonsterSecret: One reason it takes her so long to admit her own feelings is that she's pretty sure Asahi could never love her that way, both because of the trouble she causes him and simply because she's a vampire. Hence why Asahi's near-confession in chapter 48 throws her into a panic. Even after they effectively hook up, Akane has to tell her to stop worrying about whether she's good enough for him.
# Webcomic.TheCyantianChronicles: Subverted: Sean knows his wings are beautiful. He calls Jules on being attracted to him only because of his wings and not because she actually knows him.

# Characters.NegimaAlaAlba: She's ashamed of her white wings, which the crow demon tribe believe means she's a sign of ill omen. Her friends tell her the beautiful white wings make her look like an angel and she relaxes about it in front of them, though Eva shows it's still a bit of a sore spot. Setsuna: This is my true form. I'm a monster, just like them. Don't misunderstand, my desire to protect Ojou-sama is real! I've just kept this a secret... because I was afraid she would hate me in this ugly form... Asuna: What are you talking about? I think they're cool!
# Literature.TheJenniferMorgue: When half-Deep One assassin Ramona Random drops the illusion protecting her true, fishy appearance, she expects protagonist Bob Howard to be repelled. He's anything but. (From a practical point of view, this is mainly because she's part of a subspecies specifically engineered not to be repulsive to humans, because the Deep Ones do have an occasional need to interact with them.)
# WarriorCats.Tropes0ToG: Brightheart feels like this after a dog attack gouges out her eye and leaves half her face bald and scarred. Cloudtail, her mate, insists that she's still beautiful and delivers a Death Glare to anyone who would indicate otherwise. In later books, younger cats who have grown up knowing Brightheart remark that they don't even notice the scars, and are a bit surprised when cats from other Clans point them out. By that point, Brightheart has made peace with her appearance, though she still flinches when one young kitten refers to her as "that ugly cat".
# Characters.FuturamaPhilipJFry: He considers Leela to be the most beautiful woman he's ever seen, including and especially because of her one giant eye.
# Characters.XMenEvolution: While Kurt is ashamed of his appearance, he soon seems to become more relaxed about it around other mutants. He's still afraid of letting normal people see his true face, constantly wearing a device that projects a hologram around him to make him look like a normal person in public, but this trope is invoked when Amanda Sefton convinces him to turn off his image inducer as she likes his real self.
# BrokenBird.AnimeAndManga: And in 862, another deeply-hurt woman appeared... and her name is Charlotte Pudding. A childhood of family and strangers alike calling her Third Eye freakish and referring to her as "a monster" made her snap and become the monster they all called her. Pudding grew as Big Mom's Mommy's Little Villain and one Hell of a Bitch in Sheep's Clothing, willing to get her arranged groom Sanji and his family all murdered... but Sanji calling her third eye beautiful affects her so much that she collapses in tears.

# Characters.FlowerKnightGirlBlossomHill: Admits at high affection that she had experienced many "unfunny episodes" regarding her rabbit ears, and had only grown to like them after her close friend, Japanese Silver Grass, started wearing a rabbit-themed hoodie to make her feel better.
# Characters.HigurashiWhenTheyCryProtagonists: She has something of a complex about her horns. Rena thinks they're cute (but then again, Rena thinks a lot of things are cute). The only one to react negatively is Takano, and even she probably didn't really care. It's implied that her complex comes not from her current-day friends' reactions (or lack thereof) but rather the fact that when she took on human form to mediate between demons and humans, she could not hide her horns. They are a large part of the reason why she was chosen as a sacrifice.

The problem is solved when Accord tells Sig to try to catch bugs with his right hand, something Sig had not even considered. Implied and played more straight in 15th Anniversary and Sig's Secret.

Being Big Mom's daughter, there was little chance that Pudding would not become evil. However, what really sent her off the deep end was being bullied by her peers over her Third Eye. Eventually Pudding decided that, since the world would treat her like a monster, then a monster she would be.

# Heartwarming.OnePiece: Chapter 862: Sanji unwittingly touches Pudding's seemingly-empty heart by [[FreakinessShame calling her third eye beautiful]], moving her to heartfelt tears.

Yet Sanji, pervert though he may be, honestly calls her eye beautiful — something that no one. not even her own mother, had ever done before. This causes Pudding's sadistic glee and killing intent to melt away in an instant, as she falls to her knees and breaks down crying. This ends up throwing Big Mom's plan off course. Even knowing Pudding's true colors, and having his heart broken by her cruel dismissal of him in Chapter 850, Sanji still kneels by her side and asks if she's okay.

Magister Negi Magi's Setsuna Sakurazaki expy, Kuroumaru, an easily flustered but overly serious shinmeiryuu master who is ashamed to be less than human and hunts his own kind, has been cast off from his family, and has an androgynous build with a black side ponytail. He even has Ship Tease with a cheerful, careless Konoe, for god's sake!
# Characters.{{Halvgudene}}: of her black, poisonerous blood.
# Characters.PuyoPuyoCompileMajor: Save for the time in Madou Monogatari: Big Kindergarten Kids, where a little Arle points them out and upsets her, it's averted, big time. She's quite proud of her draconic features, going so far as to say her horns are cool when Lidelle tried to ask her about them. To quote Draco in the international version of Minna... Draco: "Beauty queens are soooo passé. Girls with big horns are the big thing now."
# Webcomic.{{Avialae}}: Gannet hates his wings and has an identity crisis when he learns that he's not fully human, but Bailey thinks that he's beautiful and his wings are cool.
# Recap.TheAmazingWorldOfGumballS3E20TheShell: Penny thinks her true form is ugly and calls herself a monster. Gumball tries to tell her she's beautiful, but she is too upset to listen (even though when she's finally alone in the woods, she admitted to Gumball that she knew Gumball wasn't trying to hurt her feelings and was more upset of what people would think of her and Gumball together).
# SelfDemonstrating.DraculaVladTepes: Be that as it may, I am a one woman vampire. Lisa was the only one who saw the goodness in me.
# Literature.AutobiographyOfRed: Geryon is embarrassed by his wings and often hides them under a trenchcoat. Much later, Ancash's admiration of them sets off the final subplot of Geryon's descent into the volcano.
# Characters.OnePieceSanji: How Pudding expected Sanji to react to her Third Eye on their wedding day, so she could kill him and the Vinsmokes according to Big Mom's plan. However, she and her family didn't expect Sanji to be kind enough as to actually compliment it.
# ComicBook.DeathVigil: FreakyIsCool: In a supplemental comic, Mia expresses FreakinessShame to James after not being able to fully revert her hair to normal after feeding. James thinks it looks cool.
# Characters.BlazBlueMakotoNanaya: She has a rather large and bushy squirrel tail and squirrel ears, and due to ingrained Fantastic Racism, she is secretly insecure about her squirrel ears and tail, but her best friend Noel Vermillion finds her tail extremely attractive, and often asks to fondle it.
# Characters.WorldEndWhatDoYouDoAtTheEndOfTheWorldAreYouBusyWillYouSaveUs: Once her hair starts to turn red, she's naturally self-conscious about it and attempts to hide it with her hat. Willem is not bothered by it at all, and even calls it pretty.
# Literature.ArtamonsTears: While the drakhaol is definitely not pretty, more than a few characters express awe at it's majesty and power. Gavril's angsting about it is perfectly justified, though, since it gives him a Horror Hunger and makes him ugly.
# Characters.NegimaAlaAlba: She's ashamed of her white wings, which the crow demon tribe believe means she's a sign of ill omen. Her friends tell her the beautiful white wings make her look like an angel and she relaxes about it in front of them, though Eva shows it's still a bit of a sore spot. Setsuna: This is my true form. I'm a monster, just like them. Don't misunderstand, my desire to protect Ojou-sama is real! I've just kept this a secret... because I was afraid she would hate me in this ugly form... Asuna: What are you talking about? I think they're cool!
# Literature.TheJenniferMorgue: When half-Deep One assassin Ramona Random drops the illusion protecting her true, fishy appearance, she expects protagonist Bob Howard to be repelled. He's anything but. (From a practical point of view, this is mainly because she's part of a subspecies specifically engineered not to be repulsive to humans, because the Deep Ones do have an occasional need to interact with them.)
# WarriorCats.Tropes0ToG: Brightheart feels like this after a dog attack gouges out her eye and leaves half her face bald and scarred. Cloudtail, her mate, insists that she's still beautiful and delivers a Death Glare to anyone who would indicate otherwise. In later books, younger cats who have grown up knowing Brightheart remark that they don't even notice the scars, and are a bit surprised when cats from other Clans point them out. By that point, Brightheart has made peace with her appearance, though she still flinches when one young kitten refers to her as "that ugly cat".
# Characters.FuturamaPhilipJFry: He considers Leela to be the most beautiful woman he's ever seen, including and especially because of her one giant eye.
# Characters.XMenEvolution: While Kurt is ashamed of his appearance, he soon seems to become more relaxed about it around other mutants. He's still afraid of letting normal people see his true face, constantly wearing a device that projects a hologram around him to make him look like a normal person in public, but this trope is invoked when Amanda Sefton convinces him to turn off his image inducer as she likes his real self.
# BrokenBird.AnimeAndManga: And in 862, another deeply-hurt woman appeared... and her name is Charlotte Pudding. A childhood of family and strangers alike calling her Third Eye freakish and referring to her as "a monster" made her snap and become the monster they all called her. Pudding grew as Big Mom's Mommy's Little Villain and one Hell of a Bitch in Sheep's Clothing, willing to get her arranged groom Sanji and his family all murdered... but Sanji calling her third eye beautiful affects her so much that she collapses in tears.

# Characters.FlowerKnightGirlBlossomHill: Admits at high affection that she had experienced many "unfunny episodes" regarding her rabbit ears, and had only grown to like them after her close friend, Japanese Silver Grass, started wearing a rabbit-themed hoodie to make her feel better.
# Characters.HigurashiWhenTheyCryProtagonists: She has something of a complex about her horns. Rena thinks they're cute (but then again, Rena thinks a lot of things are cute). The only one to react negatively is Takano, and even she probably didn't really care. It's implied that her complex comes not from her current-day friends' reactions (or lack thereof) but rather the fact that when she took on human form to mediate between demons and humans, she could not hide her horns. They are a large part of the reason why she was chosen as a sacrifice.
# Characters.SoulcaliburV: At the end of Story Mode, he grabs Pyrrha's malfested hand after she offers it to him and starts pulling it back.
# Heartwarming.NotAlwaysRight: This one, in a way. The guy has an embarrassing long scar on his stomach, and is scared of what his girlfriend would think of it. Instead of freaking out, though, she thinks it's awesome.
# PlayingWith.CoveredWithScars: Bob's extensive scarring doesn't mean he's a good fighter, it means he's a bad one who keeps getting beaten up. The impact of Bob's disfigurements on his social and professional life is explored, and he suffers from FreakinessShame. Bob has severely limited mobility and constant pain from his permanent injuries.
# Characters.RabiRibi: Her crippling loneliness and introversion are suddenly cast in a different light upon learning that her bunny ear "headdress"... isn't. She probably believed she was the only bunny girl in existence, and would've been right if it weren't for Noah kickstarting the plot with Erina's transformation.
# VideoGame.MightAndMagicClashOfHeroes: Aidan's left hand is deformed with evil. Jezebeth likes it.
# Characters.MyMonsterSecret: One reason it takes her so long to admit her own feelings is that she's pretty sure Asahi could never love her that way, both because of the trouble she causes him and simply because she's a vampire. Hence why Asahi's near-confession in chapter 48 throws her into a panic. Even after they effectively hook up, Akane has to tell her to stop worrying about whether she's good enough for him.
# Webcomic.TheCyantianChronicles: Subverted: Sean knows his wings are beautiful. He calls Jules on being attracted to him only because of his wings and not because she actually knows him.
# HoYay.{{Webcomics}}:
# Fanfic.DisparatePieces: Downplayed with Kylo, who grew his hair out as a child to cover up his ears.
# Characters.NarutoAnimeOnlyCharactersFromNaruto: During his true persona's first emergence, he declines Sasame's offer to return home due to his appearance and his horrible actions as the puppet. As it sadly turns out, he really can't go back with her due to not being human anymore and the remnants of Kamikiri and Jigumo holding him in place.
# Characters.ArcanaHeart: She is embarrassed about her dog ears and tail and tries to constantly hide them.
# Laconic.FreakinessShame: Edit Page
# Webcomic.SweetAndSourGrapes: Nulu's grandmother (who is blind) tries to cheer Nulu up by pointing out how pretty her ears must be.
# Film.GoodLuckChuck: Stu towards his three-breasted patient, whom he marries.
# Fanfic.LeviathanMyHeroAcademia: Izuku hates his scar and Quirk because they make him feel like a freak or a monster. On the other hand, Kirishima actually likes these qualities, calling Izuku's scar "manly" and admiring the fact that they both have razor-sharp teeth, which both surprises and comforts Izuku. But even this doesn't stop Izuku from ordering a visor that would hide the scar on his face while he's in costume, though he still doesn't tell this to anyone.

# Characters.BoardwalkEmpireDarmodyFamilyAndAssociates: He's very insecure about his scars, especially when people react with fear or disgust to them.
# TearJerker.StarVsTheForcesOfEvil: Mother, why do I have to hide my tail? St. Olga: You know that old rhyme, dear: Boys do not make passes at girls with devil tails. (Meteora sadly hides her tail under her dress)
# CursedWithAwesome.FanWorks: Wingfic (in which a character grows wings, wangsts about it and gets reassured by their partner) invariably causes Angst Dissonance because most readers think that having wings would be incredibly cool.
# Fanfic.TheChildOfLove: in “Gifts” Teri does not like her Psychic Powers and is afraid that other people will think she is a freak if they discover her abilities. When her friends find out, though, they think her powers are cool and are supportive.
# Manga.YakitateJapan: Monica Adenauer, as a master confectioner, has heavily scarred hands due to cutting herself many times on her sugar creations, and is embarrassed to let Suwabara see them. When he does, he finds them to be the hands of a dedicated craftswoman and calls them beautiful.
# VideoGame.VoltageFighterGowcaizer: It's an old Neo Geo game that comes with all the SNK-style Engrish that just makes no sense or omitted certain parts of the Japanese relations, removing some depths. For instance, let's compare Brider's win quote against Karin: (English version): What unique costume! (Japanese non-direct translation): What an embarrassing costume. Nah, I'm on the same boat...note Brider has a complex about his transformed form, thus considering himself not that different from Karin's Stripperiffic outfit
# NegimaMagisterNegiMagi.TropesPToR: During several years, Setsuna distanced herself from her childhood friend Konoka due to feeling ashamed of her failure to save her from almost drowning when they were kids. In the Kyoto arc, Konoka is kidnapped and Setsuna helps to save her. After that and Konoka telling Setsuna that her wings are beautiful, they become close again.
# Webcomic.DrawYourOwnStory: DefrostingIceQueen: CivGeneral, Jill, Marsha, and Spongebob invoked this trope with Kaede/Lucy, complete with FreakinessShame.
# Recap.MyGymPartnersAMonkeyS1E9TheSheds: Slips felt this, when he was getting berated for his bizarre skin condition. Slips: I wish I could just disappear. Miss Chameleon: Too bad you're not me. [vanishes]
# Fanfic.ABridgeOnceBroken: Loki and Jahanna, believe it or not, bond over it (being a Jotunn for him, wakfu wings for her. Not that they weren't already pretty close... Also, each of them thinks the other's weirdness is beautiful.
# Characters.FoodFantasyUltraRareSoulsAToK: Got infected by a Fallen Angel, resulting in her demon horns and current apperance. If she marries the Master Attendant, it's revealed she's more conflicted about it than it seems. I often think to myself, is there really someone who would like me as I am? Thank you, my dear, sweet Master Attendant. *kiss*
# Characters.HeraldsOfValdemarMageWarsTrilogy: She's based on a falcon and has handlike forefeet with small claws; compared to gryphons based on hawks and eagles, she stands out and feels ashamed. Amberdrake and others convince her that she's built for speed and agility and help her construct increasingly-difficult obstacle courses where she can train — and then demonstrate — her unique skills.
# NewPowersAsThePlotDemands.AnimeAndManga: In chapter 50 of Negima! Magister Negi Magi, Konoka is being held on the shoulder of a giant demon thing. Cue Setsuna stepping forward, revealing her true form as a Winged Humanoid. While everyone else thinks that the wings are awesome, white wings (like hers) were considered bad luck, and they got her exiled from her tribe.
# Fanfic.TheAngelOfTheOwlHouse: Being part Snow Leopard Cait Sith, Viney has fur on her legs, paws instead of feet, and a tail. Due to bullying as a child, she covers up these features whenever possible. The only reason Jerbo, Barcus, or Luz found out is because she was so stubborn about it that she overheated herself.
# Recap.HavenS1E6Fur: Landon struggles with the idea that he's "not real" because he is stuffed; Nathan provides some counterbalance by demonstrating his Feel No Pain Trouble and telling him it doesn't make him any less.
# Characters.LordMarksmanAndVanadis: As a child, she hid her gold right eye behind an eyepatch, though it didn't do her any good with bullies who already knew what was under it.
# Awesome.OnePieceNewWorldEra: Sanji using Diable Jambe to break his family out of their candied bonds and then standing above the group (on the table) who has done nothing but kick him while he was down. To repeat, Sanji is now assuming a position of utter dominance towering over them, the people who treated him lower than an ant's belly. Better yet, he's doing this to save them, showing his compassionate nature that Reiju is always proud of.It can count as a Moment of Awesome for Sora as well, as she the one who sacrificed herself to ensure her sons still retained their humanity and compassion. If it wasn't for her, the Vinsmokes would all have bullets in their heads, and Pudding would have succeeded in killing Sanji as well had he reacted as she expected him to. Ultimately, it was not Judge's social darwinist teachings, but Sora and her motherly kindness that saved the Vinsmoke bloodline from extinction, and saved the day for everyone.
# Characters.NeitherABirdNorAPlaneItsDekuIzukuMidoriya: AdaptationalAngstUpgrade: Izuku has a less-than-sunny outlook on his powers and quashes his own prospects of becoming a Hero at the start of the story due to lasting trauma and his severe guilt complex. This piles on top of his existential angst and FreakinessShame over being a Human Alien on a planet that hates aliens, leaving him feeling lost at what to do with his life because he doesn't know why he's on Earth. As a result, he's plagued with even more self-doubt and loathing than his canon counterpart. He starts to get over it with All Might's help, but it's a slow process.

# DarthWiki.CrappyTropeDefinitionsTropes: ButYourWingsAreBeautiful: Winged Humanoids that are pretty. And never mind that it was renamed to FreakinessShame.
# Characters.LegionOfSuperHeroesSilverAge: His formative years involved more time spent getting poked and prodded in laboratories and doctor's offices than at home, thanks to his power. As such, he grew up feeling like a freak.
# Literature.{{Paranormalcy}}: Evie thinks that Lend's true form, a water being, is gorgeous.
# Pantheon.EyeAppearances: Action Girl, Doorstop Baby, Cycloptic Mutant, Cute Monster Girl, Masculine Girl to Fry's Feminine Guy, Ashamed of Her Eye(Though Fry Thinks Its Neat), Cannot Mutate Any Further, Fanservicy Characters, Naïve Animal Lover, Usually The Voice of Reason, Stand-offish Yet Kind, Don't Make Fun Of Her Nose
# Characters.SurvivorCentralHub: She is a huge fangirl of the supernatural and because of this, she was immediately attracted to Kamek.
# CuteMonsterGirl.AnimeAndManga: Negima! Magister Negi Magi has Evangeline, half of Magicus Mundus, most prominently Fate's underlings, and Setsuna, a half-tengu and self-proclaimed monster (not that anybody cares). It appears Zazie is actually a mazoku.
# Characters.ValkyriaChronicles: Everyone is terrified of her because of her Valkyria powers, even the men under her own command, something she's self-conscious about.
# Fanfic.{{Weightless}}: Finn to Kurt (who starts off hating the things which make him and the other angels different from normal humans), practically verbatim.
# Fanfic.ANuisanceThoughThouArt: As Maia internalized Nelar's Fantastic Racism against everything goblin, he's quite floored to hear Nemolis and later Mireän praise his curly hair.
# Characters.TheCinderSpires: WilfullyWeak: He doesn't like to demonstrate his full range of superhuman abilities because he is abundantly aware that most people perceive him as more inhuman as a result, and a degree of FreakinessShame.
# Manga.KoiNeko: When Inaho starts to turn Shinta into a fox and he sprouts whiskers and pointy ears, Nao finds it very sexy and offers him a place in the cat world, prompting Inaho to offer to turn him into a cat instead.
# SpannerInTheWorks.OnePiece: she couldn't bring herself to kill him, Sanji managed to perceive and dodge additional threats in their surroundings (like an attack from Pudding's very badass Cold Sniper older brother Katakuri)... and then Luffy (and some clones of his) got the perfect opening to begin crashing the wedding, undo Big Mom's plans regarding Sanji's family, and put the plan to assassinate Big Mom herself in movement.
# Recap.StarWarsVisionsTheSpyDancer: It's implied with the Officer that this is why his adopted father had his horns cut off (or he cut them off himself) and one of his heterochromatic eyes blinded to appear more human than alien. This mutilation letting him pass as human is likely the only reason he managed to become an officer in the first place.
# Characters.TheKingOfFightersMaximumImpact: For some reason, while around the Meira twins and Jivatma, Luise seems to show some resentment for her Zoan heritage, although the former duo takes this in stride. And to be honest, her "Normal" outfit does sport some majestic butterfly wings in her G and H color variations.
# Characters.RoommatesMemoirsOfTheHairlessApe: Has real problems with people seeing their unobscured body, and usually wears a Snuggie outside their room. Mike can't see anything wrong with them and says that they are, in fact, beautiful.
# SingleWomanSeeksGoodMan.AnimeAndManga: This trope becomes vital in the Whole Cake Island saga. Initially, Charlotte Pudding despised her arranged groom Vinsmoke Sanji, and happily collaborated with her cruel mother Big Mom in what was supposed to be a fake wedding that would finish with them killing Sanji and his Big, Screwed-Up Family to take a hold of their wealth and scientific discoveries. Thing is, Sanji just happened to tell Pudding at some point that her Third Eye is really pretty... and Pudding, a very bitter Broken Bird who had gone the Woobie, Destroyer of Worlds way because of said Third Eye, collapsed in tears and couldn't bring herself to kill him. This means, Sanji's well-timed kind words completely undid Big Mom's plan, saved his and his family's lives, and made Pudding genuinely fall in love with him (as much as her severely broken mind allows her). The kicker? Pudding is one of the aforementioned Lola's younger sisters.
# DarthWiki.PreciousThings: Freakiness Shame
# Film.TheSessions: Mark has this.
# Fanfic.ServantShenanigans: Fran is ashamed of being a homunculus, and is astonished that the people of Uruk don't notice her unusual appearance.
# Characters.SoulTideDolls: She is extremely conscious of being seen in her werewolf form, made more problematic when the transformation forces her clothes to burst apart and out in the open with nothing but fur on. It takes some bonding with the Evoker that she gets at least comfortable transforming around him.
# Characters.FlowerKnightGirlBananaOcean: She's had her heterochromia eyes called into question before, and she recalls them being made fun of for them. Even if somebody calls them pretty, she'll assume that person's lying or making fun of them.
# Characters.TheIncredibleHercules: She's incredibly resentful of the curse that makes her appear reptilian, and she looks to break it at the earliest opportunity. When Athena was turned to stone and it was broken, her first statement to Amadeus was that she'd finally let him love her.
# Characters.TeenTitans2003Raven: When she met the titans for the first time, Raven was reluctant to befriend them because she felt she was a freak. It took Cyborg point out to her how weird are the others too to make her feel better.
# VisualNovel.MinotaurHotel: Your reassurances eventually make Asterion like his body and see himself as human rather than a monster, and reassure Storm in turn.
# Recap.HowIMetYourMotherAndHowIMetYourFatherTrustArcChapterThirteen: When Kyoko asks Makoto if he finds her hideous because of her scars, he assures her that he doesn't find her hideous and was only shocked by them because he thought they were recent injuries. He even goes as far as to hold her hands.
# Characters.TheBunnyGraveyard: He's ashamed of his true form in being related to Silvie, and just wants freedom from her.
# Characters.MarvelComicsSpecies: Male Dire Wraiths don't like their default appearance, and use their shapeshifting to hide it.
# Webcomic.WhiteNoise: Wren has a long, fluffy, white Prehensile Tail, but in the States, anything that marks one as a mutant is a killing offense. Anna reacts with a Squee when she touches it when Wren is sleeping.
# StarCrossedLovers.AnimeAndManga: It looks like Vinsmoke Sanji and Charlotte Pudding are heading towards this, as they fell in pretty much Love at First Sight and in other circumstances they would've been an absolutely perfect match... yet not only their marriage was arranged by two horrible people (Sanji's Archnemesis Dad Vinsmoke Judge and Pudding's Evil Matriarch Charlotte "Big Mom" Linlin), but it would force Sanji to leave both his beloved True Companions and his lifelong dream to reach the All Blue, essentially making him abandon everything he's ever stood for. And then it turns out that Pudding is a Mommy's Little Villainess anyway, and played up the Nice Girl act to sucker Sanji AND his family into her mother's plans. And then Sanji still giving her a kind comment on the Third Eye that Pudding hates so much has made her go through a sobbing Villainous Breakdown and not killing him.
# Characters.CodexEquusMoonRayVaughoof: Moon Ray's initial aversion to manifesting traits of other Pony tribes came from not wanting to look like a "freak show". He gets over it by the time he becomes a Prince, as he has taken to manifesting Musical Pony and Sea Pony traits.
# Blog.TwilightUnbound: It's shown here that Twilight absolutely despises her Werelight Shine form.She even tries to hide her beast form from her date to the prom. When her hood slips off, he thinks she looks beautiful. She's quite touched.
# Literature.PerdidoStreetStation: Grimnebulin is totally hot for his girlfriend, who has a scarab for a head. He reflects at length about how his revulsion turns him on. There are also bordellos that cater to people who want to have sex with Remade, who have had Body Horror alterations done to them. These are also technically illegal and sometimes used by the New Crobuzon government to entrap and blackmail citizens into becoming spies.
# Literature.GrimmTales: David's bullying can lead Jason to acting this way. He gets better when Zane reminds him that...
# Characters.TouhouSeirensenUndefinedFantasticObject: Inverted; having those alien, misshapen wings? She's perfectly fine with that. But having her Shapeshifter Default Form look like a cute human girl? Now that is (apparently) freaky by youkai standards! Enough so for her to have spent her entire life hiding it from everyone else. Complete with this trope comes Sanae declaring Nue the coolest thing ever and trying to befriend her, and complete with the inversion of the trope comes Nue feeling that Sanae's lack of fear of her validates her Freakiness Shame.
# Characters.FlowerKnightGirlBergamotValley: Subverted. Her experience with being outcasted for her horns may suggest that she's not fond of them, but in actuality she does in fact like the horns, and is particularly overjoyed at anybody else sharing the sentiment.
# Characters.DarkSoulsCovenants: Gwyndolin considers himself "repulsive". While we can't actually see his face and his snake feet are rather disturbing (and some people might find his enforced femininity disconcerting in a male character), it's hard to call him "ugly" by any stretch. It's likely self-loathing at not measuring up to his father's standards of masculine strength.
# Expy.AnimeAndManga: Chapter 3 introduces a shy girl with short hair named Shinobu, an obvious expy of the character with the same name of Love Hina. And then there is Negima! Magister Negi Magi's Setsuna Sakurazaki expy, Kuroumaru, an easily flustered but overly serious shinmeiryuu master who is ashamed to be less than human and hunts his own kind, has been cast off from his family, and has an androgynous build with a black side ponytail. He even has Ship Tease with a cheerful, careless Konoe, for god's sake!

# Characters.PuyoPuyoCompileMajor: Save for the time in Madou Monogatari: Big Kindergarten Kids, where a little Arle points them out and upsets her, it's averted, big time.

Draco: "Beauty queens are soooo passé. Girls with big horns are the big thing now."

# Characters.OnePieceSanji: How Pudding expected Sanji to react to her Third Eye on their wedding day, so she could kill him and the Vinsmokes according to Big Mom's plan. However, she and her family didn't expect Sanji to be kind enough as to actually compliment it.

Her friends tell her the beautiful white wings make her look like an angel and she relaxes about it in front of them, though Eva shows it's still a bit of a sore spot. Setsuna: This is my true form. I'm a monster, just like them. Don't misunderstand, my desire to protect Ojou-sama is real! I've just kept this a secret... because I was afraid she would hate me in this ugly form... Asuna: What are you talking about? I think they're cool!
# Literature.TheJenniferMorgue: When half-Deep One assassin Ramona Random drops the illusion protecting her true, fishy appearance, she expects protagonist Bob Howard to be repelled. He's anything but. (From a practical point of view, this is mainly because she's part of a subspecies specifically engineered not to be repulsive to humans, because the Deep Ones do have an occasional need to interact with them.)
# WarriorCats.Tropes0ToG: Brightheart feels like this after a dog attack gouges out her eye and leaves half her face bald and scarred. Cloudtail, her mate, insists that she's still beautiful and delivers a Death Glare to anyone who would indicate otherwise. In later books, younger cats who have grown up knowing Brightheart remark that they don't even notice the scars, and are a bit surprised when cats from other Clans point them out. By that point, Brightheart has made peace with her appearance, though she still flinches when one young kitten refers to her as "that ugly cat".

# BrokenBird.AnimeAndManga: And in 862, another deeply-hurt woman appeared... and her name is Charlotte Pudding. A childhood of family and strangers alike calling her Third Eye freakish and referring to her as "a monster" made her snap and become the monster they all called her. Pudding grew as Big Mom's Mommy's Little Villain and one Hell of a Bitch in Sheep's Clothing, willing to get her arranged groom Sanji and his family all murdered... but Sanji calling her third eye beautiful affects her so much that she collapses in tears.

# Characters.FlowerKnightGirlBlossomHill: Admits at high affection that she had experienced many "unfunny episodes" regarding her rabbit ears, and had only grown to like them after her close friend, Japanese Silver Grass, started wearing a rabbit-themed hoodie to make her feel better.
# Characters.HigurashiWhenTheyCryProtagonists: She has something of a complex about her horns. Rena thinks they're cute (but then again, Rena thinks a lot of things are cute). The only one to react negatively is Takano, and even she probably didn't really care. It's implied that her complex comes not from her current-day friends' reactions (or lack thereof) but rather the fact that when she took on human form to mediate between demons and humans, she could not hide her horns. They are a large part of the reason why she was chosen as a sacrifice.
# Characters.SoulcaliburV: At the end of Story Mode, he grabs Pyrrha's malfested hand after she offers it to him and starts pulling it back.
# Heartwarming.NotAlwaysRight: This one, in a way. The guy has an embarrassing long scar on his stomach, and is scared of what his girlfriend would think of it. Instead of freaking out, though, she thinks it's awesome.
# PlayingWith.CoveredWithScars: Bob's extensive scarring doesn't mean he's a good fighter, it means he's a bad one who keeps getting beaten up. The impact of Bob's disfigurements on his social and professional life is explored, and he suffers from FreakinessShame. Bob has severely limited mobility and constant pain from his permanent injuries.
# Characters.RabiRibi: Her crippling loneliness and introversion are suddenly cast in a different light upon learning that her bunny ear "headdress"... isn't. She probably believed she was the only bunny girl in existence, and would've been right if it weren't for Noah kickstarting the plot with Erina's transformation.
# VideoGame.MightAndMagicClashOfHeroes: Aidan's left hand is deformed with evil. Jezebeth likes it.
# Characters.MyMonsterSecret: One reason it takes her so long to admit her own feelings is that she's pretty sure Asahi could never love her that way, both because of the trouble she causes him and simply because she's a vampire. Hence why Asahi's near-confession in chapter 48 throws her into a panic. Even after they effectively hook up, Akane has to tell her to stop worrying about whether she's good enough for him.

# Characters.NarutoAnimeOnlyCharactersFromNaruto: During his true persona's first emergence, he declines Sasame's offer to return home due to his appearance and his horrible actions as the puppet. As it sadly turns out, he really can't go back with her due to not being human anymore and the remnants of Kamikiri and Jigumo holding him in place.

# Film.GoodLuckChuck: Stu towards his three-breasted patient, whom he marries.
# Fanfic.LeviathanMyHeroAcademia: Izuku hates his scar and Quirk because they make him feel like a freak or a monster. On the other hand, Kirishima actually likes these qualities, calling Izuku's scar "manly" and admiring the fact that they both have razor-sharp teeth, which both surprises and comforts Izuku. But even this doesn't stop Izuku from ordering a visor that would hide the scar on his face while he's in costume, though he still doesn't tell this to anyone.
# Series.IZombie: Liv had isolated herself from others after becoming a zombie, but feels a lot better after Ravi reveals that he knew about her "condition" for a while, finds it very cool, and hopes to help her find a cure.

# TearJerker.StarVsTheForcesOfEvil: Mother, why do I have to hide my tail? St. Olga: You know that old rhyme, dear: Boys do not make passes at girls with devil tails. (Meteora sadly hides her tail under her dress)
# CursedWithAwesome.FanWorks: Wingfic (in which a character grows wings, wangsts about it and gets reassured by their partner) invariably causes Angst Dissonance because most readers think that having wings would be incredibly cool.
# Fanfic.TheChildOfLove: in “Gifts” Teri does not like her Psychic Powers and is afraid that other people will think she is a freak if they discover her abilities. When her friends find out, though, they think her powers are cool and are supportive.

# VideoGame.VoltageFighterGowcaizer: It's an old Neo Geo game that comes with all the SNK-style Engrish that just makes no sense or omitted certain parts of the Japanese relations, removing some depths. For instance, let's compare Brider's win quote against Karin: (English version): What unique costume! (Japanese non-direct translation): What an embarrassing costume. Nah, I'm on the same boat...note Brider has a complex about his transformed form, thus considering himself not that different from Karin's Stripperiffic outfit
# NegimaMagisterNegiMagi.TropesPToR: During several years, Setsuna distanced herself from her childhood friend Konoka due to feeling ashamed of her failure to save her from almost drowning when they were kids. In the Kyoto arc, Konoka is kidnapped and Setsuna helps to save her. After that and Konoka telling Setsuna that her wings are beautiful, they become close again.

# Fanfic.ABridgeOnceBroken: Loki and Jahanna, believe it or not, bond over it (being a Jotunn for him, wakfu wings for her. Not that they weren't already pretty close... Also, each of them thinks the other's weirdness is beautiful.
# Characters.FoodFantasyUltraRareSoulsAToK: Got infected by a Fallen Angel, resulting in her demon horns and current apperance. If she marries the Master Attendant, it's revealed she's more conflicted about it than it seems. I often think to myself, is there really someone who would like me as I am? Thank you, my dear, sweet Master Attendant. *kiss*
# Characters.HeraldsOfValdemarMageWarsTrilogy: She's based on a falcon and has handlike forefeet with small claws; compared to gryphons based on hawks and eagles, she stands out and feels ashamed. Amberdrake and others convince her that she's built for speed and agility and help her construct increasingly-difficult obstacle courses where she can train — and then demonstrate — her unique skills.
# NewPowersAsThePlotDemands.AnimeAndManga: In chapter 50 of Negima! Magister Negi Magi, Konoka is being held on the shoulder of a giant demon thing. Cue Setsuna stepping forward, revealing her true form as a Winged Humanoid. While everyone else thinks that the wings are awesome, white wings (like hers) were considered bad luck, and they got her exiled from her tribe.
# Fanfic.TheAngelOfTheOwlHouse: Being part Snow Leopard Cait Sith, Viney has fur on her legs, paws instead of feet, and a tail. Due to bullying as a child, she covers up these features whenever possible. The only reason Jerbo, Barcus, or Luz found out is because she was so stubborn about it that she overheated herself.
# Recap.HavenS1E6Fur: Landon struggles with the idea that he's "not real" because he is stuffed; Nathan provides some counterbalance by demonstrating his Feel No Pain Trouble and telling him it doesn't make him any less.
# Characters.LordMarksmanAndVanadis: As a child, she hid her gold right eye behind an eyepatch, though it didn't do her any good with bullies who already knew what was under it.
# Awesome.OnePieceNewWorldEra: Sanji using Diable Jambe to break his family out of their candied bonds and then standing above the group (on the table) who has done nothing but kick him while he was down. To repeat, Sanji is now assuming a position of utter dominance towering over them, the people who treated him lower than an ant's belly. Better yet, he's doing this to save them, showing his compassionate nature that Reiju is always proud of.It can count as a Moment of Awesome for Sora as well, as she the one who sacrificed herself to ensure her sons still retained their humanity and compassion. If it wasn't for her, the Vinsmokes would all have bullets in their heads, and Pudding would have succeeded in killing Sanji as well had he reacted as she expected him to. Ultimately, it was not Judge's social darwinist teachings, but Sora and her motherly kindness that saved the Vinsmoke bloodline from extinction, and saved the day for everyone.
# Characters.NeitherABirdNorAPlaneItsDekuIzukuMidoriya: AdaptationalAngstUpgrade: Izuku has a less-than-sunny outlook on his powers and quashes his own prospects of becoming a Hero at the start of the story due to lasting trauma and his severe guilt complex. This piles on top of his existential angst and FreakinessShame over being a Human Alien on a planet that hates aliens, leaving him feeling lost at what to do with his life because he doesn't know why he's on Earth. As a result, he's plagued with even more self-doubt and loathing than his canon counterpart. He starts to get over it with All Might's help, but it's a slow process.

# Characters.LegionOfSuperHeroesSilverAge: His formative years involved more time spent getting poked and prodded in laboratories and doctor's offices than at home, thanks to his power. As such, he grew up feeling like a freak.
# Literature.{{Paranormalcy}}: Evie thinks that Lend's true form, a water being, is gorgeous.
# Pantheon.EyeAppearances: Action Girl, Doorstop Baby, Cycloptic Mutant, Cute Monster Girl, Masculine Girl to Fry's Feminine Guy, Ashamed of Her Eye(Though Fry Thinks Its Neat), Cannot Mutate Any Further, Fanservicy Characters, Naïve Animal Lover, Usually The Voice of Reason, Stand-offish Yet Kind, Don't Make Fun Of Her Nose
# Characters.SurvivorCentralHub: She is a huge fangirl of the supernatural and because of this, she was immediately attracted to Kamek.
# CuteMonsterGirl.AnimeAndManga: Negima! Magister Negi Magi has Evangeline, half of Magicus Mundus, most prominently Fate's underlings, and Setsuna, a half-tengu and self-proclaimed monster (not that anybody cares). It appears Zazie is actually a mazoku.
# Characters.ValkyriaChronicles: Everyone is terrified of her because of her Valkyria powers, even the men under her own command, something she's self-conscious about.
# Fanfic.{{Weightless}}: Finn to Kurt (who starts off hating the things which make him and the other angels different from normal humans), practically verbatim.
# Fanfic.ANuisanceThoughThouArt: As Maia internalized Nelar's Fantastic Racism against everything goblin, he's quite floored to hear Nemolis and later Mireän praise his curly hair.
# Characters.TheCinderSpires: WilfullyWeak: He doesn't like to demonstrate his full range of superhuman abilities because he is abundantly aware that most people perceive him as more inhuman as a result, and a degree of FreakinessShame.
# Manga.KoiNeko: When Inaho starts to turn Shinta into a fox and he sprouts whiskers and pointy ears, Nao finds it very sexy and offers him a place in the cat world, prompting Inaho to offer to turn him into a cat instead.
# SpannerInTheWorks.OnePiece: she couldn't bring herself to kill him, Sanji managed to perceive and dodge additional threats in their surroundings (like an attack from Pudding's very badass Cold Sniper older brother Katakuri)... and then Luffy (and some clones of his) got the perfect opening to begin crashing the wedding, undo Big Mom's plans regarding Sanji's family, and put the plan to assassinate Big Mom herself in movement.
# Recap.StarWarsVisionsTheSpyDancer: It's implied with the Officer that this is why his adopted father had his horns cut off (or he cut them off himself) and one of his heterochromatic eyes blinded to appear more human than alien. This mutilation letting him pass as human is likely the only reason he managed to become an officer in the first place.
# Characters.TheKingOfFightersMaximumImpact: For some reason, while around the Meira twins and Jivatma, Luise seems to show some resentment for her Zoan heritage, although the former duo takes this in stride. And to be honest, her "Normal" outfit does sport some majestic butterfly wings in her G and H color variations.
# Characters.RoommatesMemoirsOfTheHairlessApe: Has real problems with people seeing their unobscured body, and usually wears a Snuggie outside their room. Mike can't see anything wrong with them and says that they are, in fact, beautiful.
# SingleWomanSeeksGoodMan.AnimeAndManga: This trope becomes vital in the Whole Cake Island saga. Initially, Charlotte Pudding despised her arranged groom Vinsmoke Sanji, and happily collaborated with her cruel mother Big Mom in what was supposed to be a fake wedding that would finish with them killing Sanji and his Big, Screwed-Up Family to take a hold of their wealth and scientific discoveries. Thing is, Sanji just happened to tell Pudding at some point that her Third Eye is really pretty... and Pudding, a very bitter Broken Bird who had gone the Woobie, Destroyer of Worlds way because of said Third Eye, collapsed in tears and couldn't bring herself to kill him. This means, Sanji's well-timed kind words completely undid Big Mom's plan, saved his and his family's lives, and made Pudding genuinely fall in love with him (as much as her severely broken mind allows her). The kicker? Pudding is one of the aforementioned Lola's younger sisters.
# DarthWiki.PreciousThings: Freakiness Shame
# Film.TheSessions: Mark has this.
# Fanfic.ServantShenanigans: Fran is ashamed of being a homunculus, and is astonished that the people of Uruk don't notice her unusual appearance.
# Characters.SoulTideDolls: She is extremely conscious of being seen in her werewolf form, made more problematic when the transformation forces her clothes to burst apart and out in the open with nothing but fur on. It takes some bonding with the Evoker that she gets at least comfortable transforming around him.
# Characters.FlowerKnightGirlBananaOcean: She's had her heterochromia eyes called into question before, and she recalls them being made fun of for them. Even if somebody calls them pretty, she'll assume that person's lying or making fun of them.
