- In the Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney fan case, Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney Case 5: Turnabout Substitution, Ben Woodman, an especially disliked witness from the least popular case in the series, ends up as one of The Mysterious Bust Killer's victims. Ben is the only canon character among the Mysterious Bust Killer's numerous victims who has no impact on the plot, unlike the Judge's brother, and later the Judge himself, so his death falls squarely into this trope.
- Arrow: Rebirth: Oliver leaving Felicity for Laurel, Felicity's Adaptational Villainy, and then her anticlimactic death at the hands of the Huntsman, which Oliver doesn't even bother trying to avenge after finding out she was planning to kill Laurel, makes it solidly clear that the author, much like a lot of the Arrowverse fanbase, hates Felicity Smoak.
- In the George Lucas Altered Version, Forging a Better Future, she's even worse: it turns out that she's a metahuman with brainwashing/persuasion powers, and that she had been using them on the entire superhero community for years — including Oliver, who she forced into a relationship with her, and Laurel, who she effectively murdered when Laurel breaking her programming caused the seizure that killed her. That is the real reason why she got away with so much of her toxic behavior in the original timeline, and why people kept praising her even after she proved time and again that she wasn't the kind, selfless person they kept calling her.
- These Foolish Things: The entire story is basically one massive Take That! to Felicity's behavior in Season Four of Arrow, whereupon her obsessive need for validation and overall entitled behavior is taken to its logical conclusion, forcing Oliver to break up with her and kick her off the team.
- To Hell and Back (Arrowverse):
- The author does not like Felicity Smoak, and even admits as much in the first part of the prologue.
- In the unaltered timeline from where Eobard comes from, Felicity was a Green Arrow stalker that had convinced herself that Oliver was her soulmate and outed his secret identity to the public right before she was jailed after he rejected her.
- In the current timeline, she's in jail for creating the hacktivist supervirus that her college boyfriend took the blame for in canon. Said boyfriend is also in jail for using it to clear out his student loans.
- Andy Diggle and the Darhks (sans Nora) are both killed in Part IV of the prologue. Andy's death isn't even mentioned, just inferred by readers.
- The author does not like Felicity Smoak, and even admits as much in the first part of the prologue.
- What It Takes: Felicity does not have a good time in the story. Her relationship with Oliver falls apart while they're in Bali due to her refusal for them to go back to Starling, and then ends for good after Oliver finds out she kept him Locked Out of the Loop in regards to what was happening in Starling. When Oliver gets back to Starling, he promptly informs everyone what she did, causing her to lose all her friends. She then loses her job thanks to Ray being discovered alive and her being a terrible CEO. By the end of the story, she has nothing, with Oliver not even letting her to get the last word in with regards to their relationship.
- Xendra
shows how the Scoobies would react to Kennedy if they met her before Season 7. She's shown to be a Rich Bitch with a definite case of Small Name, Big Ego. Willow isn't remotely impressed when Kennedy first tries to flirt with her, then when Willow turns her down (stating she's already dating Xander/Xendra) Kennedy tries to pay her.
Crossover
- In Comic Book SNAFU, the villainous Checkmate organization includes both Major Force, unpopular for being a one-dimensional Jerkass and the Trope Namer for Stuffed in the Fridge, and Lightbringer, hated for his generally unlikeable personality. Major Force is The Friend Nobody Likes among Checkmate, the heroes find him disgusting, and even his bio describes him as "some dick". Lightbringer fares better, but he still ends up being a No-Respect Guy who gets beat up by both Major Force and Batman.
- At one point, Zemo gets a phone call from "Nazi-Cap", aka HYDRA Supreme from Secret Empire. Like Nick Spencer, Nazi-Cap claims he isn't a Nazi, despite wearing a costume embroidered in Nazi imagery. Zemo tosses his phone away, delivering a "The Reason You Suck" Speech towards the whole event.
Go away. Nazi-Cap! Your premise is derivate, your story arc took way too long to end despite very few interesting ideas, and your ultimately a lamer knockoff of William Burnside! - At one point
- Suzaku Kururugi gets several of "The Reason You Suck" speeches in Six Paths of Rebellion for working for Britannia while espousing the evils of fighting the empire that conquered his homeland. After the Black Rebellion succeeds, he's the only Honorary Britannian to choose against staying in the United States of Japan and once his plans to rule Area 11 as the Knight of One are made known, along with his supporting of atrocities such as the Shinjuku Massacre, he's regarded as the worst traitor in the history of Japan by the populace.
- Swapping Genres (Marvel Cinematic Universe & Once Upon a Time): Not only is a Base-Breaking Character, Hook, never seen in the story due to the author's admitted dislike of him, but there is an entire short paragraph that is dedicated to saying that he not only isn't real, but that the idea that he exists ridiculous.
- The Wedding Crashers is another one for The Twilight Saga using the cast from Supernatural to ridicule the Cullens and Jacob's pack's attitudes and Protagonist-Centered Morality, condemn the wedding between Jacob and Renesmee and seeing it nothing more than unethical due to Renesmee's age and ridiculous due to the excessive use of white for decoration. Not to mention the outfits considered "beautiful" in the books are considered tacky and inappropriate due to how young the vampires look.
- After Jacob accidentally kicks Leah out of the pack, Leah punches him in the face when he tries to attack her and even slugs Renesmee in the face when she tries intervening. Dean lampshades it by calling it "ten years' worth of spankings".
- Bella once again is on the receiving end of this by Castiel, who not only condemns her mindset (and therefore, the author's) on vampires and humans, but also telepathically pushes her to the side in the middle of what she thought to have been a Badass Boast just to show how wrong and weak she is against him. Charlie also disowns her after the wedding when he overhears her disgusting perception on humanity as a whole.
- The entire story also serves as a Break the Haughty, showing the vampires that they aren't on top of the food chain and that humans can in fact kill them.
- A Running Gag in The Winx Club Loops has the Trix Sisters replacing the Trix Rabbit and, being much more powerful than him, easily defeating the kids that try and steal their cereals and eat them before their eyes.
- Yugioh EQG (Yu-Gi-Oh! & My Little Pony: Equestria Girls): Timber Spruce quickly becomes disliked by Flash Sentry for flirting with Twilight Sparkle, and challenges him to a duel. During the duel Timber shows to be a jerk who only respects monsters who are strong, using his weak monsters as Canon Fodder. Even Twilight, who saw him as a nice guy just a little bit ago is shocked by how heartlessly he treats his monsters. Flash beats him by using Shine Crest Magna Wolf, a card Timber mocked earlier, raising its ATK to 4600 and beating Timber's ace with it.
- Timber shows up in the sequel as a finalist and brags about his point total, before finding out that out of all the 32 finalists he is in last place. Then he is eliminated during the first round of the finals when he loses his match against Cloak N Dagger. Flash just smirks at both of these, taking joy in Timber's humiliation.
- Three different ask blogs have featured easily the most hated character in the franchise, Haiji Towa, being Killed Off for Real:
- Ask The New Hope's Peak had Hajime kill Haiji after the latter tried to assassinate Makoto Naegi.
- Ask Kuzumiki Adventures has Kotoko kill him, after a couple of anons suggested it.
- And on The Pre Despair Kids, Maverick Storm mentions crucifying Haiji and taking over as the leader of the adult resistance in Towa City.
- A New Hope (Danganronpa) does this with a number of characters:
- Teruteru Hanamura is impaled on a wall-mounted spear by Nekomaru Nidai.
- Yasuhiro Hagakure is the fourth killer, and is then flung from a giant tarot card onto spikes.
- Angie Yonaga follows as the fifth killer, being burned alive and drowned with hot wax.
- Hifumi Yamada and Tenko Chabashira fall afoul of a manufactured disease and suffocate from it.
- Tsumugi Shirogane is found out as the traitor and is then sliced to pieces on a roulette wheel.
- Hiyoko Saionji turns out to be Kotoko Utsugi in disguise. The real Hiyoko appears only as a severed head in the freezer... until the sequel where she becomes the main villain, and ultimately she’s Thrown Out the Airlock.
- One of the hostages is Kanon, who ends up beaten to death with a baseball bat.
- Ruruka Andou is smashed by Chisa Yukizome after she proves incompetent at her task.
- Haji Towa is shown being tortured by Monaca.
- Death Note: The Abridged Series (kpts4tv) gleefully does this with Misa:Takada: I hope you're not mad but I think my bodyguard crippled your fake girlfriend today.
Light: Oh no, that's terrible! Is she paralysed?
Takada: I don't know. I'm not a doctor.
Light: Will she be able to talk?
Takada: At the rate she was blabbing, I doubt that death itself would shut her up.
Light: Dammit! You should fire your bodyguards!
- The epilogue to Lady and the Tramp III: Family Troubles mentions that Si and Am ran away, were quickly forgotten about, and were replaced with Scamp's three sisters.
- Dragon Ball Z Abridged gives one to Chi-Chi. As the Namek arc begins, and Chi-Chi expresses her usual Education Mama desires for Gohan despite his desires to help with the conflict; her increasing exasperation results in Gohan simply responding "SHUT YOUR F**KING FACE!" After the shocked reactions by the rest of the Z-fighters, he calmly says "I'll be going to Namek now."
- Abraxas (Hrodvitnon): Base-breaking Godzilla: King of the Monsters (2019) character Emma Russell, who earned a lot of ire from audiences for being an Unintentionally Unsympathetic Abusive Mom who had a ton of Moral Myopia and nonsensical motivations for killing millions of people. It turns out that after the initial pain and distress of watching Ghidorah kill her died down, Madison and Mark didn't forgive her for everything she did. Madison explodes in anger when Mariko tries to speak of Emma as a role model, and even Mark who's more somber about the mention of her expresses his doubt that her Heroic Sacrifice was really enough to make up for everything else that she did. Vivienne Graham, during a violent Nightmare Sequence, meets Emma again and vengefully stabs her with a butcher knife.
- Gundam Seed Bloodlines: The first thing Cagalli does upon meeting Lacus Clyne is punch her in the face.
- In Invasion of the Cuddy Snatchers, Thirteen gets eaten by Special Guest C'Thulu!
- My Inner Nightmare: Jenna, the infamous protagonist of My Inner Life, is made into a succubus who wants to feast on Link's life force but is destroyed by Zelda.
- Mineta's sole appearance in The Devil of UA consists of him being smashed through a wall by The Zero Pointer and no one other than Aizawa making a joke about it seems to care.
- In My Brave Pony: Starfleet Magic, Rhymey is one of the more hated original characters because he speaks in nothing but rhymes, and unfortunately, not good ones. note An unintentional example happens when he confronts Ace Ray in My Brave Pony: Star Fleet Magic III, who is in the process of making points about Unicornicopia that are more valid than the author realizes.Rhymey: There's no need to make a fuss / there is nothing he can do to us.
Ace Ray: And you... will YOU STOP WITH THAT RHYMING!- Rhymey gets an even bigger dose in the recursive Fix Fic Fall of Starfleet, Rebirth of Friendship, where the majority of his character arc consists of these moments. Over the course of a single chapter, he gets beaten up by Rainbow Dash, loses the ability to rhyme, and is thrown out of Fluttershy's house. Later, Fluttershy breaks free from his attempt to mind control her and lays a massive "The Reason You Suck" Speech on him, before he gets beaten down by Raven, who then slits his throat for good measure. He survives that, only to wind up in prison, where he gets disavowed by Grand Ruler and disowned by his own mother. Any potential sympathy for him is averted by his characterization as an abusive, self-serving, treacherous sociopath.
- My Brave Pony: Starfleet Nemesis: Considering how disliked he is, it's hard to see Rhymey's death at the hands of the Sentinels as anything else but this.
- The Conversion Bureau: The Other Side of the Spectrum:
- Marcus and Celestia give Blueblood a very brutal and well-deserved verbal beatdown in Chapter 11 before Discord turns him to stone temporarily, which serves as a wake-up call for him to improve his ways after he's freed. Also, TCB Blueblood is revealed to have been turned to stone and smashed to pieces by Queen Celestia because even she couldn't stand him.
- PER agents Michelson and Morely of the eponymous story by Chatoyance were virulently hated for being huge Designated Heroes. Kraber's backstory and his ruthless hunting down of human collaborators serve as this for them. Sure, Kraber's methods are brutal and extreme, but it's hard to shed any tears for those on the receiving end.
- In the Calm Before the Storm side story, TCB Big Mac reminisces giving Diamond Tiara food poisoning after she called Apple Bloom the product of incest.
- Last Train From Oblivion reveals that TCB Suri Polomare died as well.
- Shikamaru gives one to Sasuke in The Pride after Sasuke claims to be as strong as Naruto (who's recently gone rogue).Sasuke: Some would say I'm at the same level as him.
Shikamaru: I'm sure there are those who indeed feel that way. However, based on your accomplishments before receiving that temporary boost from the Sage of the Six Paths, I would say that the quality of the opponents Naruto bested surpasses yours. Naruto in short order just before and during the war defeated the Rinnegan using Pain, as well as bested a Rinnegan and Sharingan using Obito, not to mention six of the nine Bijuu at the same time. He then managed to give the entire Shinobi Alliance a chakra boost and still fought against the ten tails until Madara absorbed it, where things got really dicey. I would go into pointing out that shortly before the war your list of accomplishments were limited to killing a weakened Orochimaru, and fighting your brother until his disease killed him, but I feel that would be redundant. Since the truth is that unless you were willing to tag along with any force sent to capture Naruto it is unlikely anyone we send would be capable of stopping him. - The author of Son of the Sannin makes it clear how much he dislikes Danzo Shimura. Over the course of the story, Jiraiya takes a jab at Danzo whenever he has the chance.
- Much like Pokémon Reset Bloodlines below, Samurai in Challenger suffers badly in his first appearance. Upon seeing his trainer threatened with a sword, Ash's Sandile (Sobek) rips it out of Samurai's hands and bites it in two. During their battle, Sandile beats Pinsir easily due to Ash being a Combat Pragmatist unlike Samurai and using his strongest and most effective moves immediately.
- The Longest Road has an unfortunate example gone a little too far. Understandably, the author was pretty angry with Erika's decision in the Pokémon anime to ban Ash from her gym for not liking her perfume. However, rather than denouncing her unprofessionalism, he instead gets her ousted from her job for being a lesbian (for some reason, the Pokémon League has a rule that states that nobody who is from the LGBT community can be a trainer). It's hard not to think of her as the more sympathetic party, especially given that the rest of her Gym staff are most likely going to find themselves out of a job soon. The writer later rewrote the chapter so that Erika's fired for being a jerk, not because of her sexuality.
- Tobias in the Pokémon: The Series oneshot of the same name gets one when he's told Legendary Pokemon are banned from competitive play and that since he earned all his badges with a Legendary, they're being confiscated and he'll have to start over.
- Happens to him again in a oneshot called A Champion's Commupance [sic], where he gets stripped of the championship and banned from competing for using Legendaries, which are then found to be genetically enhanced Pokemon. That happens to be against the law, so Tobias goes to jail, mumbling something along the lines of "I should have never trusted Team Galaxy..."
- Tobias Is Arrested, Yo appears to be heading in this direction, when two cops approach Tobias after he wins the Sinnoh Conference and try to arrest him for using banned Legendaries in competitive play, confiscate his badges, strip him of his championship title, and ban him from competing in future conferences. However, it turns out that "Tobias" was never a real person, and was actually a holographic disguise being used by Darkrai and the other Legendaries to compete in a regional Conference; even before then, Tobias points out that if what he did were really illegal, he would have been stopped long before now. In essence, this story in itself is a Take That! to the idea that Ash's loss was illegitimate in any way.
- Happens to him again in a oneshot called A Champion's Commupance
- Pokémon Reset Bloodlines:
- Paul gets one when Lt. Surge calls him out for his insistence on winning at all costs, especially when Surge forfeits rather than risk his Raichu losing its limbs to a powered-up Razor Leaf. Paul tries calling Lt. Surge's strategies "pathetic" only for Surge to respond that as Paul is neither a war veteran nor a gym leader, he has no room to talk.
- Samurai earned a lot of ire for being central to one of the anime's first examples of a Broken Aesop. In Reset, he's a Butt-Monkey who gets humiliated every time he appears.
- Thunder in Kanto: Chapter 15 has Erika and her crew punished for their unfair banning policy - once again people are banned from Celadon Gym for behavior in her store - but in the end, they are unable to do anything to stop Napalm - an mentally unstable brute. They all are absolutely BRUTALIZED once his finaly finds the gym and decides to brute force his way in. In addition to beating staff unconscious, guy is able to take away a Rainbow Badge by force, beat and humiliate Erika for fun, set Celadon Gym ablaze with his Weezing and take gym leader hostage. Erika is eventually saved by Quinton in next chapter, but Celadon Gym is destroyed once again. In addition, it's confirmed in chapter 16 that Celadon Gym STILL have no security system and fire prevention system.
- Traveler:
- Tobias tried to catch Darkrai like his canon counterpart did. Unfortunately for him, he lives in a Darker and Edgier world where Darkrai is a Physical God rather than an Olympus Mon. When Ash meets him, Tobias has gone insane and is overflowing with Dark-type energy.
- Ash easily beats Samurai the first time they fight, up until Samurai uses Hyper Beam then runs when it angers a swarm of Beedrill. The second time Ash passes through Viridian Forest, he has all eight badges and just irritably has Infernus use flamethrower on Samurai's Pinsir.
- Paul is taken out of the Pokemon League offscreen when Michael utterly curb-stomps him. Likewise, everyone who's met Paul agrees he's a prick.
- Fiery Aroma One-Shot Fic by MF217. Just as Ash is first blocked off from Celadon Gym by her Gym Trainers, only for this weird kid suddenly interfering claiming to be part of the Gym Inspection and is here over a potential violation of OSHA compliance regarding a fire hazard, and considering Fire Types are a Pokémon trainers would likely bring to face Erika with he naturally gets a lot of mileage for someone who is actually just bluffing his way through to get them to fix their act. What sets this one apart from the others like it is the fact Erika's Gym Trainers, who were the actual ones to prevent Ash from entering and not Erika herself, are the ones on the receiving end of an HM Strength using Nidoking and promptly tossed into the nearest pond for their troubles.
- RWBY: Reckoning had Cardin's dickish attitude elevated up to eleven. Originally just a school bully content with picking on Jaune, Cardin threatens to go after Ruby and Darrel if Yang doesn't spurn Darrel, using her as his 'maid'. As payback, Darrel takes the two fan-preferred options and combines them: set the Rapier Wasps intended for Pyrrha on him, and breaking his legs.
- A Voice in the Wilderness has Federation President Okeg fire the utterly useless Ambassador Jiro Sugihara, replacing him with Councillor Charivretha zh'Thane.
- A deleted scene for the Fan Edit The Phantom Edit shows Jar Jar being killed off in Episode 1, falling into a cliff of rocks.
- Total Drama What If Series: Sky being mistreated by everyone is enjoyable to those who are angry at her for her behavior in season 2.
- Airachnid from Transformers: Prime killed one of the series' Ensemble Dark Horse characters, but then is only exiled later on without any closure given to her ultimate fate. She is quickly killed off by Megatron near the beginning of the fanfic Transformers Prime: Time War.
- The one-shot Tough Love can be considered an entire "The Reason You Suck" Speech that Charlie gives to Bella in an alternative scene in New Moon where he calls her out on her brattiness, her apathetic behavior towards everyone that isn't Edward and kicks her out of the house. He also informs her that her six-month Wangst-induced Heroic BSoD resulted in her flunking high school, losing her job, and leaving her truck in great need of repairs and that the Cullens are actually broke from their constant spending (while Carlisle's job pays nicely, it's not enough to cover their multiple purchases of high-end luxury cars and designer clothing). In fact, the author states that in her headcanon that the Cullens are forced to leave Forks soon afterwards to escape prosecution for insider trading.
