Poor guy.
* Aoife in ''VideoGame/ValkyriaChronicles4'' is a {{Gender Inverted|Trope}} example. She's so beautiful and sweet, with a habit of paying well-intentioned compliments to the men in her unit, that she has a huge throng of admirers who think they have a chance with her... and she is ''completely'' unaware of it. Her Squad Story is all about one of her squadmates trying to work up the nerve to confess his feelings, only to find out that she already has a fiancee, and all of the things that others mistook for affection were simply because she is very nice. One of her female squadmates ends up astonished by how much of an 'unintentional seductress' she is.
* The titular character in ''VideoGame/{{Wadanohara}}'' is oblivious that she is being crushed on [[{{Tsundere}} Samekichi]], [[TheStoic Fukami]], and [[spoiler:[[{{Yandere}} Sal]]]] for most of the game, and ultimately ends up with [[spoiler:Samekichi]] in the GoldenEnding after she gets the hint.
* Since ''VideoGame/YandereSimulator'' will be a 10-week long game with a new rival each week, this means that Senpai has, completely by accident, managed to attract the attention of 11 different girls. And WordOfGod is that {{Removing The Rival}}s by setting them up with other students will have him come to believe he's ''just not attractive''.
