** In the first scene in the series, Shiro, along with Sam and Matt Holt, is abducted off of Kerberos, one of Pluto's moons. In the TimeSkip between this and the scene a year later, he has been enslaved, separated from his companions, experimented on, and forced to become a gladiator for the amusement of TheEmpire.

** After waking up from a 10,000 year cryogenic sleep, one of the first thing Allura finds out is that her entire planet was destroyed along with her entire species, including her parents. So...yeah...
** And then there's Keith, who grew up [[GiveHimANormalLife believing his mother had willingly abandoned]] him, lost [[DeceasedParentsAreTheBest his father]] at a young age, and spent much of his childhood [[FriendlessBackground alone and unloved]].

And then he got expelled from SpaceCadetAcademy and lived alone in the desert for a year. DeusAngstMachina, indeed.

*** Sanji’s backstory took the standard “stranded on an island with an enemy” story and turn them into something unique. Everyone knows being stranded on an island sucks, but this is hardly an island: it's a mushroom rock that's too far above sea water to fish and incapable of sustaining any life...because it's a ROCK. Not to mention, he realizes that the only other person on this island has a big ol' bag of, what he thinks is, food, much bigger than the one he gave to Sanji. However, it turns out that other guy just had a bunch of money and absolutely NO food, and that instead of keeping any for himself, gave ''all'' the food he recovered to Sanji and ''broke off and ate his own leg'' to survive. And on top of all ''that'', the food that Sanji got was barely enought to last 20 days (though it lasted 25 days). It took ''eight-five days'' for a ship to find them. One can only imagine how hellish the last 60 days (''two months'') must have been. No wonder Sanji considers wasting food to be a horrible offense.

Eventually, Judge got too fed up with Sanji's lack of progress to bother continuing to raise him, and instead faked his son's death before locking him in a dark room and forcing him to wear an iron mask.

* ''WesternAnimation/BojackHorseman:'' Almost every main character has shades of this, but the majority of them weren't incredibly influenced by it. Princess Carolyn was already an independent, hard-worker, regardless of her mother who'd get so drunk, she'd have to send PC to do her work for her; Diane Nguyen was implied to always having been a determined girl, her dysfunctional family simply amping her anxiety; Todd was already lackadaisical before getting kicked out of his house... for being lazy.
** Mr. Peanutbutter: A very lowkey case, as his upbringing was very happy, but labradors are taught to ignore their problems. This could easily be why he puts on such a cheery demeanor, but has expressed ''deep'' fear of death and endings.
