Axis Powers Hetalia? Really? -_-
Too bad that Belldandy from Ah My Goddess isn't the best example of this trope, because she will give her life to protect Keiichi. You don't want to see her angry either.
Maybe we could go with something of Neytiri? She'd be a fairly recognizable example seeing as how Avatar's the highest-grossing film ever, and I'm sure we could find some screenshots of her being violently protective of Jake...
EDIT: Also, I found this in the video games section of the article:
"One sided example in Sonic The Hedgehog with Amy Rose when Silver tried to kill Sonic. Becomes her Crowning Moment Of Awesome and a pic of her Death Glare during this scene is a good pic candidate."

Be kind of nice to leave it up so people can look at it.
I think people can find the image on their own.
rodney, you're supposed to post a link if you pull it down. This way everyone can see the image without having to go through a lot of work, and hopefully no one suggests the same image again.

I had to go to the page history to find it. That's a lot more work to put people through.
Anyway, the following are some of Hungary and Austria that are more clear:
The second isn't half bad.
I tried seeing if Belldandy had any but couldn't find them.
However, I think we were overlooking the obvious choice: Yuno
◊ from Mirai Nikki.
I couldn't find a good one with google search, but the manga ought to be chock full of examples, if anyone is willing to go dig through the archives.

Yes, yes, it was specifically a dig about this
, sorry I tripped over Poe's Law. Note the sarcasm tag, though. I agree that it is good manners to link to exactly what you're talking about.
One of these days I will earn the benefit of the doubt that rodney is saying something retarded. One of these days.

Becky: Who are you? The Mysterious Stranger: An angel. Huck: What's your name? The Mysterious Stranger: Satan.I second the nomination of Ney'tiri for the picture. There are two scenes in the movie where she's crouched down over Jake with teeth bared at the camera and a knife in hand. Either moment would serve nicely.
The first is more visceral, but I think either of these would do. New to the site though, not sure if they'd need to be resized or if they do so automatically.

Neither of those links are working; the pics don't come up from the links, and hitting Enter on the UR Ls takes you to the Yahoo search page.
Neytiri doesn't even look like a girl in the 1st one, though.
Maybe we could use one of Amy. It's technically "peacefully protective" in its original context (which I fast-forwarded through videos of Silver's story to find; not very familiar with the game) but it could have become violent, which I think is apparent from her pose.

Disagree. Whether Neytiri looks like a girl is clearly subjective. I think she does, and your the first person I've heard from who didn't think so.
Furthermore, the Amy pic just doesn't fit the trope well enough, IMO. There's absolutely nothing to indicate violence, which is kind of important.
EDIT: Its like Anaheyla said, you can't have a picture where the caption does all the work.

I meant she doesn't in the first pic. Or are you saying I was the first to say she didn't in the first pic? If so how many people's input have you had on said pic?
If you could find an image where she more obviously looks like a girl AND is clearly being violently protective that'd be better. For now I recommend the image of a girl with a bold-looking pose standing in the way of someone with glowing gloves.
She doesn't look very female in the first pic, mostly because she lacks the more common secondary and tertiary female characteristics, however, I don't think it's necessary. I would like to see them shrunk down before I cast support for them. I've tried shrinking some shots of Avatar and it doesn't always work.
Fight smart, not fair.I actually had to shrink the Amy pic from its original context on youtube
to make it less than 350 pixels wide; if I cropped it as such instead would that have been an improvement?
In the first Neytiri picture, we have no idea what she's protecting, or that she's protecting something. She's just sitting there hissing with a knife.
In the second, she doesn't look particularly protective. She might even look like she's getting ready to kill him, considering her body is angled towards him with the knife, even if she's looking away.
Ah... that's not a very good picture. The one I found of Hungary
◊ is better.
And I still think Yuno would be the best example, if I could figure out the right search terms.
Here's a page of Yuno
, it's the best I've found so far, but it might be a bit too big.

The caption does all the work. There is nothing to indicate that this person in a Violently Protective Girlfriend in any way whatsoever.
This is still a signature.
