** Buttercup becomes this retroactively in chapter 7A, when she angrily breaking up Mitch following a major fight (in which BothSidesHaveAPoint), and then is eventually left sobbing against the professor's chest. Though she isn't completely blameless, and most of the drama came from her projecting her own insecurities unto Mitch and the gang, it's hard not to feel for her as she laments how "[[{{Tsundere}} he didn't know how much [she] loved him]]" in-between sobs. In chapter 10, she becomes a straightforward [[TheWoobie Woobie]] as she has a near HeroicBSOD over Butch's near-fatal injury.
** Brick alternates between this and StoicWoobie, depending on just how badly he reacts to all the crap he has to put up with. Aside from HIM going out of His way to troll (read:try to kill) him, his brothers putting all his goals in jeopardy, and Darius keeping him from coming back home at JS Inc, his constant denial of his own feelings concerning Blossom are the source of all his demons, and he carries more self-inflicting baggage than he's willing to admit.
** Also Boomer. All he wants is to be normal and live happily ever after with Bubbles. However, his crippling loyalty to Brick and his own unchecked emotional turmoil stand in the way. The "Jerkass" part comes from how possessive he is over Bubbles, bordering on {{Yandere}} territory. However, he's at his most pitiable when he's gets vulnerable with her, as he's genuine in his feelings but doesn't know what to do with them.

** Bubbles in the first four chapters due to being DerailingLoveInterests with Will, who keeps shutting down her many attempts to savage their relationship. She cries on multiple occasions throughout the events with one specific instance being described as "looking like a wounded puppy". On top of that, she has to deal with Boomer having an unrequited crush on her (which she's scared of reciprocating), and her cheerleader friends being total bitches to her. Even after getting together with Boomer and getting thrown a few bones, she still has to deal with Boomer's flaws and past, which she can't get over as easily as Buttercup.

** Mojo Jojo crosses it when he defies Blossom's attempt at an EnemyMine and leaves her to die inside of his self-destructing Robo-Jojo.
** Mrs. Moorbucks crosses it by secretly attaching a device on Brick that essentially made him live bait for the monsters roaming Townsville, all to test the technology. Though she wasn't expecting the monster barrier to flicker and cause a massive monster invasion, she later shows no remorse over the consequences of her actions, and then gaslights Brick by bringing up all the favors she did for him to keep him in line.
** Though HIM was already on the other side by the time of His introduction, He cements himself as this when He completely shrugs off Butch's near-fatal injury caused by his vortex, suggesting that he deserved it for being so disobedient.

Even Blossom and Buttercup feel somewhat bad for him, despite being the main victims of his jerkassery. After he's almost killed by Him's Vortex in chapter 10, he becomes a borderline IronWoobie.

** Princess' mother showing up in Chapter 1 and giving [[EntitledBitch her daughter]] a thourough verbal beatdown which has been overdue since the latter's debut in the original show.

** Boomer shaving [[AlphaBitch Ashley]]'s hair off in Chapter 3 and ruining [[CruelCheerleader the other cheerleaders]]' uniforms in Chapter 5 may not have been this for Bubbles, but it certainly was for many readers, due to how pointlessly mean they had been acting towards the poor girl for petty reasons.

** Brick getting sick with the Amoeba Virus in Chapter 8 and seeing what it's like to be weak for the first time is a satisfying HumblePie for him after how much of a SmugSuper he's been acting towards his fellow students.
