* ''WesternAnimation/DespicableMe1'': Little Agnes covets a stuffed unicorn, but this being a carnival, the game is patently rigged. Gru, being a supervillain, decides that CuttingTheKnot and ''blowing up the game'' was an acceptable workaround to get his daughter her toy.
--> '''[[MemeticMutation IT'S SO FLUFFY!]]'''

Although that also means immature in a lot of cases. In fiction, it's often the girliest or brattiest woman who still has them. In RealLife Japan, some women carry them around to try to remain {{Kawaiiko}} for fear of becoming an OldMaid.

* [[CreepyChild Anju]] from ''Manga/{{Karin}}'' adorns her whole room with various stuffed dolls running the gambit of many various forms- stuffed animals among them. All of them have some demonic spirit inhabiting them. She never goes anywhere without [[CreepyDoll Boogie]], who acts as her familiar. Boogie himself contains the spirit of a psycho serial killer and separating either one from the other is '''NOT''' a good idea.

* ''Manga/{{Lady}}'': 5-year-old Lynn is always seen carrying her stuffed bunny wherever she goes, which she brought from Japan. She treasures it dearly and when Mary tore it;s ears, she stitched it back together.

* In the early chapters of ''Manga/NegimaMagisterNegiMagi'', Negi ventures to the lair of Evangeline, an ancient Vampire and infamous 600-year-old mass-murderer (with the appearance of a 10-year-old little girl) at the request of her servant Chachamaru, to look after her after she caught the flu. To his surprise, instead of a cobweb-covered catacomb littered with skulls, he finds a brightly beautiful room filled with adorable toy animals and glowing with warm innocence. This is a glimpse into the psyche of Evangeline (who was turned into an immortal at ''ten''), hinting that she ''still'' wants to be an innocent and happy little girl again in spite of living six centuries of blood, violence, cynicism, and hate. [[spoiler:Luna aka Shiori]] carried a plush rabbit as a little girl. Seen during [[spoiler: the flashback where Fate, her master, recruits her comrade Homura.]] Nodoka also has a stuffed rabbit thing that serves as her backpack.

* ''WesternAnimation/TurningRed'': Meilin Lee has a shelf-full of stuffed animals in her bedroom. One in particular, named Wilfred, has been with her for years and is clearly a SecurityBlanket (as [[GoodParents her father Jin]] makes sure that, even though they have to clean out Mei's room until she has her panda under control, she still has Wilfred to snuggle with).

* ''Film/BlackSwan'': Nina lives and is treated like a girl, her room is a space full of pink nuances, stuffed animals and toys. When she snaps, she destroys all of the toys.

* ''Literature/NowhereStars'': Liadain Shiel is a DarkMagicalGirl, ImmortalitySeeker, {{Plaguemaster}} and ''fiercely'' protective of her stuffed pink axolotl Pearl. In one arc she has to deal with a [[TheHeartless Harbinger]] capable of stalking her home, and summons her MentorMascot just to enchant Pearl so it can't be touched; she's a little embarassed by it.

* Jupiel in ''VideoGame/TheAwakenedFateUltimatum'' has a bad case of this. Her room is packed with stuffed animals and at one point after she is released from solitary confinement, the first thing she does it to go straight for comfort in her stuffed animals. This is followed up with an argument with Ariael about whether her behavior of talking to the stuffed animals is normal.
* If you successfully recruit Karlach in ''VideoGame/BaldursGateIII'' in her tent in camp you can see she has a Teddy Bear called Clive. Karlach is a rough, potty mouthed [[TheLadette Ladette]] but has a very [[TomboyWithAGirlyStreak sweet vulnerable side]] that Clive hints at.

--> '''Morgane:''' [[SarcasmMode Brilliant idea]]. Wandering around a pirate ship holding your teddy is sure to win your crew's respect.

* ''VideoGame/FireEmblemThreeHouses'' features an "Armored Bear Stuffy" as a possible gift Byleth can give to their students and friends. The characters who react favorably to the gift, Edelgard, Bernadetta, Mercedes, Lysithea, Marianne, Hilda, Flayn, are all female, and are girly, childish, or both. Though in the case of Edelgard, her more vulnerable sides are kept hidden from most people.

* Maria Ushiromiya in ''VisualNovel/UminekoWhenTheyCry'' is a [[CreepyChild dark]] take on this. If you're wondering why you haven't seen anything like this, it's because [[spoiler:[[AbusiveParents her mother Rosa]] tore up the stuffed lion she loved and [[ImaginaryFriend constantly talked to]], Sakutaro. With the loss of said lion, poor Maria started to get both angrier and creepier, as can be seen from the progressively darker entries in her journal.]] This did not end well. However, in the same series there's a more light-hearted take on the trope: while Sakutaro does not appear as a stuffed animal to the Seven Sisters of Purgatory (rather, he has the appearance of a cute little boy with lion ears wearing an oversized shirt), they still adore him and always glomp him every chance they get.

** The Nostalgia Chick has a shedload of cuddly toys. She's not quite girly, but it shows she's not trying too hard to be adult.

** Numbuh Three collects Rainbow Monkey dolls, among other stuffed animals. She is so obsessed with them, she has a whole mess of them in her bedroom in the Sector V Treehouse. [[BewareTheNiceOnes She doesn't take kindly to anyone]] [[BerserkButton who messes with them, such as destroying or killing them]][[spoiler:, or so much as [[ComedicSpanking spanking]] [[OurVampiresAreDifferent them]]]].

--> '''Wendy:''' Dude, I don't know if it's a duck or a panda, but I want one.

* ''WesternAnimation/XavierRiddleAndTheSecretMuseum'': Yadina has a stuffed turtle named Dr. Zoom, who she loves very much and treats like an actual person.

* ''WesternAnimation/TurningRed'': Meilin Lee has a shelf full of stuffed animals in her bedroom. One in particular, named Wilfred, has been with her for years and is clearly a SecurityBlanket of sorts (as [[GoodParents Jin]] made sure that, even though they cleaned out Mei's room until she had her panda under control, she still had Wilfred to snuggle with).

* ''Fanfic/TheSunWillComeUpAndTheSeasonsWillChange'': Mary carries around a plush rabbit named Mimi for much of the story. When viewing her memories, she believes that her mother, Dana, gave her the rabbit in a [[PetTheDog rare moment of affection for her daughter]], [[spoiler:only for the memory to show that [[SubvertedTrope Dana only got Mary the plushie because she wanted Mary to stop making noise at the grocery store. When her number goes down to zero, Mary gifts Mimi to her train companions, as something to remember her by. Years later, she's shown having gotten plush versions of her train friends so she'll never forget the train or how she's grown as a person.]]

* ''Manga/{{Lady}}'': Lynn is always seen carrying her stuffed bunny wherever she goes, which she brought from Japan. She treasures it dearly and when Mary tore it;s ears, she stitched it back together.
