** In ''VisualNovel/PhoenixWrightAceAttorneyTrialsAndTribulations'', it is revealed that the reason Godot hates Phoenix is because [[spoiler:he blames him for the death of Mia Fey, despite Phoenix being LockedOutOfTheLoop on the events leading up to her death (namely, her investigation of Redd White) and only stumbling onto the scene later. Mia herself doesn't blame Phoenix for anything, but Godot still does.]] Eventually, he admits that he was really just desperate for someone to blame [[ItsAllMyFault to ease his own guilt about not being there to prevent it]].

To paraphrase SF Debris; the people who watch the film should not be forced to go find additional material. If you see the film and don't have access to the novelizations/comment from the production team, Rachel comes across as utterly irrational (sure, it's only her and Jo-Jo, but could be that she is a widow instead of a divorcee. The film does not supplies enough evidence).


* In ''Film/SonicTheHedgehog2020'', [[HateSink Rachel]] is the [[ObnoxiousInLaws hateful sister-in-law]] of Sheriff Tom Wachowski, who constantly tells her sister to divorce him (and this is ''before'' Tom becomes a wanted fugitive by the government because he's helping Sonic). Not only is she crazy and hateful enough to [[EstablishingCharacterMoment tell her sister to divorce Tom right after a casual (as in the "hi, honey, I am driving and wanted to say 'I love you'" kind) call]], the specific reason she hates Tom so much is never mentioned at all. She gets better in the [[Film/SonicTheHedgehog22022 sequel]], though.

* Vento of the Front in ''Literature/ACertainMagicalIndex'' despises the Science Side of the world because she and her brother were critically injured in a ride that claimed to be scientifically proven safe and doctors were able to save only one of them.
* At least two groups in ''Literature/CheatMagicianLifeThatStartedFromBeingJudgedUseless'' hate the protagonist Kento for very irrational reasons.
** The first, Funayama Sr., falls into the "Needs someone to blame" category. He is the leader of the most prominent construction company (in universe) of Japan and his son winds up missing, along with over 200 others when the school he's attending mysteriously collapses, and the police first refuse his services to assist in clearing the debris to find survivors and second refuse to divulge any information, because they can't, when letters start coming in from the rest of the missing students. Then unscrupulous reporters publish Kento's photo as the poor kid was visiting his mother's grave, and he learns from his friends, who also have missing kids, that the letters sent back describe that Kento is in a polygamous relationship, so BLAMO, Kento '''must''' be the mastermind, and damn it all, either he'll get his son back from Kento, or beat the boy to death. Who cares what the actual evidence says.
** The second is a self-proclaimed "civil group" that ''openly hinders'' any and all rescue attempts or attempts at reconciliation from the actual guilty parties to the point '''they send a DeepCoverAgent''' at Kento and try to kill him and when he succeeds anyway, try to booby trap the press conference with explosives, actually kidnap both returning isekai victims and their families, and when they try to smuggle the latter out of the country, their escape vehicle is not only staffed with people armed to the teeth, as if they intend to start a war, but the ship has a ''nuclear weapon'' as a self-destruct dead-man switch. While the JSDF, the Japanese Diet, and the police all speculate on motives, the only motive any of their agents has openly stated is that Kent entered a polygamous relationship in the country of Landsheldt, where polygamy is legal, recognized by law, and '''justified''' by the sheer danger of monster attacks.

* In ''Literature/FiftyShadesOfGrey'', Christian loathes his birth mother, blaming all of his delinquent behavior and present-day issues on the fact that she was a "crack whore" (his nickname for her) who was unable to protect him from her pimp and who didn't feed him properly. That level of resentment seems pretty harsh when memories and flashbacks show that his mother was unable to even protect ''herself'' from being beaten by the pimp, that she loved her son enough to bake a birthday cake for him, and, based on Christian's focus on having submissives within their late teens to early twenties because they remind him of his mother, that she was in her teens herself when she gave birth and had to raise a child on her own, in terrible conditions. It also comes across as harsh, given that Christian doesn't direct anywhere near that level of hatred towards the pimp himself, who was the one who actually ''did'' hurt Christian.
** In the third book, Ana's ex-boss Jack Hyde breaks into her home with the intention of abducting, raping and possibly killing her. Christian, who is at a business conference that day, ordered Ana to stay home instead of going out with her best friend; Ana defied him and thus isn't home when Hyde broke in. When Christian and Ana discuss this, Christian, rather than being relieved that Ana is OK, is absolutely livid that she defied him to the point that he outright states that he wants to hit her, even though her defiance saved her life. While the reader is probably meant to infer that he's angry because he has irrefutable evidence that his ControlFreak desires would have got his wife killed, the Blog/DasSporking team pointed out that he comes off as having hired Hyde to abduct and murder his wife, and is furious that Hyde failed.
* OlderThanFeudalism: In Literature/TheFourGospels, none other than UsefulNotes/JesusChrist claims this is true of his enemies' attitude toward him. Considering how irrational you'd have to be to hate an AllLovingHero, he clearly had a point.

** Dolores Umbridge absolutely ''loathes'' part-human beings, from giants to werewolves [[note]]and since wrewolves are not a separate species, she is targeting humans suffering from a chronic illness[[/note]] to centaurs to goblins and everything else. She doesn't show hatred towards ones who pose a threat to people. She hates ''all'' of them, referring to them as "half-breeds" and generally treating them with disdain. Not that she has anything but disdain for everyone but herself. Given her behavior towards Hagrid and [[TooDumbToLive the centaurs]], she also seems under the impression that part-humans all share "near-human intelligence" and thus treats them like small children, which is especially insulting considering that Hagrid and the centaurs are clearly of human intelligence (well, Hagrid can be a bit of an idiot sometimes, but so can all humans, including Umbridge). The only reason remotely given for his mindset is Sirius's guess that she's afraid of them. And then we learn from WordOfGod that he is right. Her megalomania and desire to control and dominate leads her to feel insecure by those who cannot be categorized and she is unable to accept the existence of people outside her sphere of control. In the movie, she also tells Harry and Hermione, "You know, I really hate children."

* In ''Literature/TheWheelOfTime'', Gawyn Trakand displays this trope toward the main character, Rand. When second-hand news states Rand has done something terrible to Morgase, he believes it immediately and develops an all-consuming hatred for the man despite two loved ones who both defend Rand wholeheartedly.

* In ''WesternAnimation/TheVentureBros'', [[RiddleForTheAges there may or may not be]] a reason why the Monarch is so obsessed with tormenting Dr. Venture. If there is one, we've never been told it, making the Monarch's constant arch-villainy against Venture come off as baseless. Dr. Venture is completely in the dark as to why he hates him and any attempt to get a reason out of the Monarch just results in him getting indignantly furious that it's not obvious to everyone else. [[spoiler:TheReveal in the GrandFinale BigDamnMovie that they are brothers (Dr. Venture Venture's father gave a clone of himself his son to Monarch's parents) does not really brings an answer because neither of them knew that until the film's end and does not solve the problem -- when presented with the opportunity to bury the hatchet and be brothers, Monarch refuses and storms off to continue arching Rusty.]]

** Bob and across-the-street Italian restaurant owner Jimmy Pesto [[SitcomArchNemesis hate each other equally]] in what Linda describes as a years-long pissing contest. In Bob's case, it's at least implied he's jealous of Jimmy's more successful restaurant, but that doesn't explain why Jimmy goes out of his way to try and sabotage Bob in contests and the like, even if he doesn't win. Though it's also implied that Jimmy hates Bob because unlike Jimmy, Bob can actually cook delicious food.
** Mr. Dowling, who runs the bank Bob uses, is an extremely petty man who has no respect for him, mocking him for his limited funs and has no issue rejecting him for loans. Unlike Hugo Habercore and Jimmy Pesto, despite how ultimately petty their reasons are, have reasons for being dicks to him, Dowling doesn't seem to have such reason.

In The implied reason is MutualEnvy over Bob's case, it's skill at least implied he's jealous of Jimmy's more successful restaurant, cooking and Pesto's financial success, but that doesn't explain why Jimmy goes out of his way they're certainly not going to try and sabotage Bob in contests and the like, even if he doesn't win. Though it's also implied that Jimmy hates Bob because unlike Jimmy, Bob can actually cook delicious food.
admit that.
