*Bleep*-dammit!

An instance where a work is censored so randomly or ineffectually that the attempted censorship doesn't hide anything and makes you, the viewer, wonder why they even bothered. Perhaps the Censor Box is so small that you can clearly see what's behind it, or a word is bleeped out in some scenes but not in others. Maybe they cut out all the swearing but left in that scene with the women's nudist colony and the tub of bacon grease. At any rate, it's clear that the work is supposed to be censored but ultimately nothing is actually concealed.
Heal The Cutie

The universe just isn't kind to The Cutie. For all their sweetness, idealism, love, and innocence, authors seem obsessed with putting them through all sorts of horrific violence, trauma, and loss. Eventually they are broken inside, an Empty Shell of what they once were.
So... what happens next?
Sometimes their hopeful, caring nature is forever lost. Sometimes they snap. They may start on a path of darkness. They might even try to bring the world down with them. Or they may just wither up and die
