     Harsh (Tsun) 
  • Both Sasha and Daichi from Greek Ninja are this.
  • Web author Twisted Hilarity's popular story The Last Pure Human features Max, who finds himself centuries in the future on an alien planet after being cryogenically frozen on his way to a colony. To summarise, he finds himself unwillingly 'married' to giant alien Cat-Man Kasan: cue a long, long series of "I hate him. I'm not even gay. I am totally not into his huge hot body. I am not going to lead him on, especially not when he does that sexy smile of his. Nope. Not one bit." Thankfully this grows less prominent as the story goes on.
  • This girl from Not Always Romantic.
  • Gardevoir in Pokemon: World of Chaos. She is always mad at her master Tee-Jay, calling him "jerk" and stuff, partially due to the fact that she is a Shadow Pokemon (and a former Dark Pokemon), and so her heart is "closed". But she is very jealous when TJ speak to women and blushes everytime he made her a compliment.
  • David Chapman from you could make a life. He's convinced that he hates his rival Jake Lourdes, but when Jake asks him why exactly he hates him so much, the only response David can come up with is to kiss him. Add to that how his icy treatment of Jake begins giving way to blushes and shy replies when Jake doggedly keeps on pursuing him and how he has no experience whatsoever in dealing with feelings of love/attraction, and you have a bonafide tsundere on your hands.
  • Knife from Inanimate Insanity is a huge jerk to pretty much everyone in Season 1, but in Season 2 he became less of a jerk and started showing signs of caring for the others.
  • Kagerou Project: Takane Enomoto (the past life of Ene). She has no friends - due in part to her hostile expression, and also due to being in a special class with only a boy to keep her company. Naturally, her character song is about her developing a crush on him. And she hates it. By the end of the song, she's showing signs of becoming Sweet, reflecting her own acceptance of her feelings. Too bad they both die before she can tell him.
  • The Most Popular Girls in School:
    • Mackenzie Zales is prominently a Type B around her idol Jeannie Halverstad, but is a Type A to pretty much everyone else (though certainly not to the same extent as Brittnay below).
    • Brittnay Matthews is normally quite bitchy, but she does save her Dere side for people she genuinely cares about.
  • DSBT InsaniT: Dave is one towards Whitney. His apologies to her are incredibly forced, and for every moment of slight compassion he shows her, there are three moments where he insults her. By episode 7, his Tsundere traits are shown to other members of the cast.
    Asia: Thats just Dave being Dave. He can't say anything 100% nice.
  • Dreamscape: Jenna is one towards Dylan. She is very understanding about the things he is going through, and would never try to, say, force a secret out of him...because she knows he isn't stupid enough to keep secrets from her! She's like this to Aseir as well, but to a more subtle extent. She doesn't directly insult him, but she does gives him backhand compliments.
    • Betty's got a short fuse, but she's a team player deep down.
  • Taken to extremes in The Tsundere Wife and the Crybaby Husband. Despite Tomomi marrying Kyosuke, bearing his children, and staying by his side her entire life, she never once showed him her dere side until after she had already died of old age.
  • Nadine from Dawn of a New Age: Oldport Blues has a genuine side that she deliberately covers up with a thorny attitude. It's obvious when she interacts with her ex-boyfriend Hyeon and has to keep herself from seeming like she's having fun.
  • Lala and TT from Cream Heroes show signs of this.
    • TT is a colder harsh type, punching any cat who gets into her personal space but she is very sweet and loyal to Claire, refuses to punch small kittens, and is (reluctantly) affectionate towards Nana due to the latter being determined (and socially savvy) enough to befriend her.
    • Lala is very harsh towards Momo and punches him when he tries to get close. Yet, when he shows affection to a robot cat called Mimi, she destroys her.
    • Lala is also Tsundere towards Dodo in a Cool Big Sis way. Normally she punches and hisses at him when he annoys her or steals her food (although he will do the same in return) but when he gets stuck on top of the kitchen cabinets or becomes deeply distressed over a practice bath, Lala comes running to check on him and see if he is alright.
  • Helluva Boss: Loona is generally an ill-tempered, rude, snarky and lazy young woman, rarely having a good word to say about anyone and picking on Moxxie in particular. But beneath her prickly exterior lies a caring side that shows itself under the right circumstances; She awkwardly tries to comfort a distraught Millie when Blitzo and Moxxie are captured by demon hunters, happily and proudly cheers Blitzo on when he takes on Beelzebub in a Drinking Contest, promises him afterwards (After Bee reveals to her that he was actually Drowning His Sorrows) when he’s deeply depressed and almost black-out drunk that she’ll never abandon him, tucking him in and even calling him ”Dad” for good measure when she usually refuses to do so, and lends Octavia a sympathetic ear and a small pep talk about parents when the latter runs away to Earth after Stolas fails to remember a promise he made her.

     Sweet (Dere) 

    Unsorted 
  • AoHaru Manga Library: Certain stories have the heroine being a Tsundere. Usually, Yui is the one saddled with the role. Sometimes it's deconstructed that the Tsundere's antics end up driving people away because they're not being honest with themselves.
  • I'm a Marvel... And I'm a DC: Random Gal... And HOW!!
  • Yahtzee comes across as a Tsundere whenever he has to grudgingly admit that he actually likes something. The fanbase has picked up on this, too.
  • Neil Gaiman apparently thought of George W. Bush as being Tsundere towards Saddam Hussein.
  • Princess Peach in this video. Mario and Bowser actually gush over how Tsundere she is!
    • Although that may actually be a subversion; she's not being "tsundere", she's just sick of them both and their ugly faces, not to mention this whole fruitless kidnapping/rescue thing.
  • Church from Red vs. Blue probably fits in here somewhere. He's a jerk most of the time, but on occasion shows that he really does care about the rest of his team (and about Tex). The instant he realizes that he's done so, however, back comes the tsuntsun side. Tex is just plain tsuntsun, though. It particularly shows up in this episode when Tex and Church confront O'Malley.
    • In season 8 his deredere side comes out a bit more. Then again, it's kind of maybe not quite the original Church.
  • Jon from The Runaway Guys.
  • Light Yagami in Death Note: The Abridged Series (Kpts4tv). He acts Harsh towards Ryuk and Sweet towards L or was it Beyond Birthday?
