Removing Averted Trope entry: aversions shouldn't be listed, outside special circumstances.


* Averted most significantly by Keiichi in ''Manga/AhMyGoddess''. He's willing to reason with others, regardless of what they are. He even aided the demon angel, Blue Lance.



* Briefly discussed in ''Manga/DeliciousInDungeon'' by Laios and Chilchuck about fish-type merfolks. Laios argues they're closer to fish than they are to humans; therefore it's all right to eat them. Chilchuck is still turned off by their overall human-like features, especially since they're intelligent enough to use tools. In an omake though, a human-type mermaid readily eats a fish-type merfolk without hesitation.

** {{Deconstructed|Trope}} to a power dynamic regarding the major races -- even the definition of human varies by region, using such flimsy rationalizations as the number of bones they have. Demihuman species like orcs and kobolds are regularly {{dehumaniz|ation}}ed and [[FantasticUnderclass exploited]] or outright barred from human society. However, when Kabru talks about how most kobolds are best attacked on sight because they're aggressive and non-communicative, he's shocked to hear the protagonist casually say the exact same thing about a barbarian human tribe back home.

* The alien Arume in ''Manga/BlueDrop'' create synthetic children to function as bombs or as devices to clean up the remnants of their own biological weapons. All of them are female with bright blue eyes and white blood, just like the Arume themselves, and they grow up just like normal children. Quite a few earthlings definitely regard them as human and try to protect them from their fate and the persecution by earthlings. The synthetic Arume also share their creators' tendency to fall in love with earth girls, which makes things even more complicated and leads to a [[GirlsLove lot of drama in the manga]].
