* ''WesternAnimation'': Mizu is the child of a Japanese mother and white father, as evidenced by her blue eyes; this being the Edo period when foreigners even ''being'' in Japan was a crime punishable by death, she's subjected to extreme prejudice and discrimination, being seen as less than human for her entire life. Her main goal is to find and kill any of the men who ''might'' be her father (as there were exactly four white men in Japan at the time she was conceived, and she's got a list).

* ''WesternAnimation/TheGhostAndMollyMcGee'': Molly, who's half-Thai, half-white, experiences this in "100% Molly [=McGee=]" when her mom's side of the family visits and she feels disconnected from her Thai heritage. The fact that her brother and even her white father speak Thai better than her doesn't help either. Molly tries to immerse herself in Thai culture as much as possible to make up for this, but eventually her relatives tell her she's perfect the way she is.

* Dash from ''Literature/FracturedStars'' is the son of a mundane father and a Starseer mother. He grew up in a Starseer enclave where his psychic powers weren't as strong as everyone else's, thanks to his diluted genes. He left the planet to become a pilot, but now he hides his heritage from everyone else, because in most of the system, Starseers are widely hated and oppressed and seen as dangerous threats.

* In ''Manga/DeliciousInDungeon'', [[spoiler:Marcille]] is revealed to be a half-human, half-elf. While this lineage grants her the best traits of both races, being sturdier than humans and longer-lived than elves, it also gives her an unstable growth rate/lifespan, and prevents her from having children of her own. This condemns her to a life of loneliness, and Thistle accuses her of wanting to become the Lord of the Dungeon in order to escape this fate.
