History FantasticRacism / AnimeAndManga

* Togusa of ''GhostInTheShellStandAloneComplex'' has some technophobia as part of his old fashioned/FanOfThePast personality. He is initially somewhat hostile to the Tatchikomas because he bristles at the idea of their being a fully sapient artificial intelligence. In the second season, he gets set up and put through a show trial after he shoots a cyborg criminal while off duty. The main thrust of the prosecution's argument is that Togusa is prejudiced against cyborgs due to subconscious feelings of inferiority.

* InuYasha has half-demons, which are hated by both humans and demons, with humans and demons also hating each other.

* In the ''AngelSanctuary'' manga, angels are created ''in vitro''. Naturally-bred angels are looked down upon, and outright hunted whenever they can find an excuse (the [[LaResistance rebellion]] helps on that). They are often born with pale skin and red eyes, which gives them the slur name of "rabbits". This often borders on BullyingADragon, since rabbits are often born with extreme and uncontrolled powers.
* In ''ArmitageIII'', the title character is a RidiculouslyHumanRobot (in fact, she's so ridiculously human [[spoiler: she can even reproduce]], which is a plot point) working to investigate murders (of victims who turn out to be similar RidiculouslyHumanRobots) with a partner who's prejudiced against robots and cyborgs due to one causing the death of his previous partner. He is injured, and [[KarmicTransformation repaired with robotic prosthetics]]. Of course, he gets an {{Aesop}} about tolerance, and eventually [[spoiler: marries his mechanical partner and has even a baby with her]].

* ''Anime/YuriKumaArashi'' has one between humans and bears. Bears simultaneously see humans as bears and enemies [[spoiler:and bears who admit to being a friend to humans will be isolated from the group]]. Humans, however, see bears as things that must be hunted down and protected from at all costs [[spoiler:and anyone [[WitchHunt they suspect of fraternizing with bears]] will be systematically hunted down, lynched, used as bait, and eventually killed]].

* Sora from ''YuGiOhArcV'' is very smug about Fusion users being better than XYZ users. What makes this cross from UnEqualRites to racism, however, is that his hatred comes from disliking the ''people'' from the XYZ Dimension, effectively another world where XYZ is ''the'' summoning method. The Fusion people came in and attacked the XYZ people. Sora is smug about Fusion being better than XYZ, but he genuinely hates people from the XYZ Dimension and admits to hunting them down for fun. A little FridgeHorror comes in when you realize that he and many other children from Academia were likely brainwashed or indoctrinated into this way of thought.
** Shun and Yuto from the XYZ Dimension is likewise prejudiced against Fusion users, because of the attacks they endured. Yuto at least manages to overcome this when Yuzu learns to Fusion summon, but Shun is universally against Fusion for them kidnapping his sister.

* Fate has shown some evidence of this in ''MahouSenseiNegima''. Some of his internal monologues seem to indicate he doesn't consider the people of the Magic World to be ''real''. Except for the human population of Megalosembria, they ''are'' artificial beings who will fade from existence when (''when'', not if) the Mundus Magicus collapses. And far from persecuting them for it, he actually claims he's trying to ''save'' them, in his own twisted way.

* The battle of [=ESPers=] vs. "Normal People" in ''ZettaiKarenChildren'' is one of the underlying themes of the series. Almost all of the [=ESPers=] in the series are under the watch of the government, and it's shown that when someone is discovered to have powers, they're treated harshly for it. Good thing Minamoto serves as MoralityChain to The Children.
* In ''Anime/MagiLabyrinthOfMagic'', the Fantalis clan such as Morgiana and Muu are often discriminated and treated wrongly. More so, often [[BullyingTheDragon at the offender's own risk.]]
** This was revealed to be the main problem in [[spoiler: Magnoostadt]] where they treated the [[{{Muggles}} Goi]] horribly. While [[HumansAreBastards some of this behaviour]] was justified, most of it was treated as a KickTheDog.

** Subverted somewhat in that Freeza's real motivation was fear, the racism was mostly a cover. He destroyed their planet because he feared a Saiyan uprising, not because he particularly hated them.

** Freeza's racism is played up even more in ''WebVideo/DragonBallAbridged''. He despises most races he encounters, but claims he's not actually a racist since he just wipes them out rather than hating them.

* ''Manga/{{Naruto}}'': In an early arc, Haku explained that in the Land of Water the powerful and deadly abilities of clans with bloodline abilities had garnered fear and hatred from those without such abilities. The hatred was so severe that Haku's father was willing to murder his wife and son because of their bloodline.

* ''MobileSuitGundam'' had conflicts between "Earthnoids" (humans who lived on Earth) and "Spacenoids" (humans who lived in space). Closely related was the conflict between Newtypes (those with PsychicPowers, almost always Spacenoids) and Oldtypes (non-psychics, but also used as a slur for those stuck in old ways of thinking).

* In a major case of AllThereInTheManual, it's revealed that the ''Anime/TenchiMuyo''-based alien race, Juraians, have a major thing against humans, most likely due to their "backwater" nature (seeing as humans still don't have FasterThanLightTravel). This is one of the major reasons Yosho (who was half-human) took off after Ryoko - he didn't want to deal with all of that and intended to send someone else in his place. Of course, his bride-to-be Ayeki, who believed Yosho was dead, was not happy to learn of this revelation.

* In ''LightNovel/BlackBullet'', the Cursed Children are a race of lolis born with the Gastrea virus in their blood and are able to manipulate the virus that grant them superhuman powers. This is the same virus that turned most of humanity into EldritchAbomination. Some cursed children are used as "Initiators" for civil security companies and paired with "Promotors." However, cursed children are treated with severe discrimination in human society and are feared and hated as if they were Gastrea. Cursed children are often faced with violence, abuse, and even PoliceBrutality and genocide. Some cursed children are even sold into sex slavery or used as slaves and child soldiers (especially in the Middle East) and governments have passed draconian laws that strip cursed children their basic rights.

* In ''LightNovel/BlackBullet'', Initiators are little girls who were born with a bit of Gastrea DNA due to said monsters attacking their mothers while they were pregnant. Initiators thus have superhuman abilities, but though most use their abilities to defend humanity against the Gastrea, they are hated, feared, and discriminated against. Most people call them "Cursed Children" and treat them as if they actually are Gastrea.

* ''Anime/MarvelDiscWarsTheAvengers'' breaches the topic of Mutant hatred that's common with its source material. However, the kids just genuinely don't get why people like Thor (a god), Wasp (a normal human with science-fueled abilities), Iron Man (a guy in a suit) and Spider-Man (combination of accidental powers and science-y stuff) are touted as heroes and yet Mutants are regarded so negatively.

** ''GundamSEED'' had Naturals ([[PunyEarthlings normal humans]]) versus Coordinators ([[BornWinner genetically engineered humans]]).

* General Sakamori Miwa of ''Anime/{{Daimos}} is horribly racist to the Baan and wishes nothing more than to see them all killed. This culminates when he takes over Daimos and tries to kill them that way, but fails. Ultimately, Kensuke's had enough and beats him within an inch of his life before he's arrested for his crimes. When he appears in ''Franchise/SuperRobotWars'', LaserGuidedKarma hits him even more and he'll even be killed for his actions.

* Kind of the point in ''Manga/ElfenLied''. Although Diclonii ''are'' an actual threat to humanity as a species, from what we're shown it's humans who cause a lot of the threat, combined with the simple fact that children should not have weapons.s
