* ''Manga/MiracleGirls'': [[DownplayedTrope Downplayed]] with the protagonist twin sisters, Toni and Mika, being them both nice and heroic girls, although [[PassionateSportsGirl sporty]], [[BoyishShortHair short-haired]] Toni is more patient and laid-back than [[CuteBookworm bookish]], [[LongHairIsFeminine long-haired]], [[PinkMeansFeminine pink-wearing]] Mika, who tends to be quite snippy and temperamental. Toni has her temperamental moments too, but she is generally friendlier than Mika.

* ''WesternAnimation/{{Amphibia}}'': Anne Boonchuy's friends who got teleported to Amphibia along with her. Marcy Wu is a kind-hearted GamerChick and is [[TheKlutz always getting into mishaps]]; Sasha Waybright, on the other hand, is an AlphaBitch [[ToxicFriendInfluence who's always controlling and wants everything done the way she wants]]. Though this is downplayed somewhat by the fact that they're ''both'' tomboys compared to the very feminine Anne, and subverted when [[spoiler:it turns out Marcy manipulated them and is the reason they were all sent to Amphibia to begin with]].

** From the sixth season, both Jasmine and Sky are athletically inclined, with Jasmine being an Outback Survivalist and Sky being an aspiring gymnast, and are both some of the nicest contestants of their season. By contrast, main villain Sugar is a pageant queen and is also rude, a complete slob, and willing to win by any means necessary.

* ''Film/ACinderellaStory'': Sam is a NiceGirl heroine who likes baseball and wears a TomboyishBaseballCap. Her rival Shelby is the typical AlphaBitch cheerleader.

* ''Film/SkyHigh2005'': Tomboyish GreenThumb Layla is one of the main heroes of the film, and is consistently nice throughout, even to Will's rival Warren. The AlphaBitch cheerleader, however, bullies her and the other "Hero Support" students much like their other popular friends and even joins the villains at the end of the movie. [[spoiler:The film's BigBad, Gwen, spends most of the film being another popular girly girl, who puts on a BitchInSheepsClothing routine. She acts kind at first, but starts to show her true colors when she bullies Layla in a KickTheDog moment.]]

* ''WesternAnimation/KimPossible'': While both Kim and Bonnie are cheerleaders, they qualify. NiceGirl Kim is a TeenSuperSpy who is good at martial arts and doesn't often wear skirts (outside of cheerleading). Bonnie is an AlphaBitch who wears more feminine clothes and has no interest in sports other than cheerleading.

* ''WesternAnimation/TheOwlHouse'': [[Characters/TheOwlHouseLuzNoceda Luz Noceda]] is a tomboyish fantasy nerd with BoyishShortHair and is an AllLovingHeroine.

** Susie Carmichael and Angelica Pickles. Susie is very athletic and is nice to the babies, while Angelica loves playing with dolls and dressing up, but is mean to the babies.

* ''WesternAnimation/ThePowerpuffGirls'': {{Downplayed|Trope}} but present. Buttercup is the most tomboyish member of the cast, and while she can be selfish and impulsive, she is nonetheless [[JerkWithAHeartOfGold a protector of Townsville and her sisters]]. Princess Morbucks is one of the more feminine characters as well as a [[SpoiledBrat spoiled]], [[{{Greed}} greedy]] [[EnfantTerrible villain]] in Townsville with absolutely no redeeming qualities.

* ''WesternAnimation/{{Amphibia}}'': [[Characters/AmphibiaAnneBoonchuy Anne Boonchuy's]] friends who got teleported to Amphibia along with her.

Though this is downplayed somewhat by the fact that they're ''both'' tomboys compared to the very feminine Anne, and subverted when [[spoiler:it turns out Marcy manipulated them and is the reason they were all sent to Amphibia to begin with]].

* ''WesternAnimation/GravityFalls'': {{Downplayed|Trope}} with [[Characters/GravityFallsMabelPines Mabel Pines]] and Wendy Corduroy. Mabel isn't so much mean as she is occasionally selfish and thoughtless. Still, she is a girly girl, and a distinct contrast to Wendy, the show's GoodBadGirl. Mabel also provides the Tender Tomboyishness to Pacifica Northwest's Foul Femininity.

* ''WesternAnimation/{{Amphibia}}'': [[Characters/AmphibiaAnneBoonchuy Anne Boonchuy's]] friends who got teleported to Amphibia along with her. [[Characters/AmphibiaMarcyWu Marcy Wu]] is a kind-hearted GamerChick and is [[TheKlutz always getting into mishaps]]; [[Characters/AmphibiaSashaWaybright Sasha Waybright]], on the other hand, is an AlphaBitch [[ToxicFriendInfluence who's always controlling and wants everything done the way she wants]]. Though this is downplayed somewhat when [[spoiler:it turns out Marcy manipulated them and is the reason they were all sent to Amphibia to begin with]].

* ''WesternAnimation/CloneHigh'': UsefulNotes/JoanOfArc is a DoggedNiceGirl DeadpanSnarker {{Goth}} who enjoys basketball, and doesn't have much interest in traditionally feminine things like makeovers, while UsefulNotes/{{Cleopatra}} is an {{alpha bitch}}y {{Jerkass}} with an ItsAllAboutMe attitude.

[[caption-width-right:350:Top: Lincoln Loud jamming with [[CoolBigSis his rock star sister Luna]]. Bottom: Lincoln being threatened with violence by [[BigSisterBully his boy-crazy sister Lori.]]]]

** Among the Loud sisters, Luna (the third eldest) is an aspiring rockstar NiceGirl, and Lana (the fourth-youngest) is a kindly WrenchWench who enjoys FilthyFun. Meanwhile, Lori (the eldest) is a BigSisterBully (although later grows out of it) who enjoys teen magazines and nail polish, and Lola (Lana's {{Polar Opposite Twin|s}}) is an aspiring pageant queen and a BrattyHalfPint.

* ''WesternAnimation/{{Horseland}}'' gives us the trio of rich girls Sarah Whitney and Zoey and Chloe Stilton. Unlike the latter two who are [[LovableAlphaBitch Lovable Alpha Bitches]], the former dresses more classic and tomboyish and prefers friends over money.

* ''Literature/MrMen'': Little Miss Somersault and Little Miss Splendid are a [[DownplayedTrope downplayed example]] of this trope. Little Miss Somersault on the one hand is a fan of physical activity and is shown to be a kind and friendly person who uses her nimbleness to help out those in need while Little Miss Splendid, who is into fashion is a RichBitch and is prejudiced against "commoners" just like Mr. Snooty. The downplayed part comes in the fact that Little Miss Splendid is sometimes shown to have a [[JerkWithAHeartOfGold heart]].

* Stan Kirby's children series, ''Captain Awesome'' has [[{{Tomboy}} Sally Williams]], a spunky second-grader who often wears shirts, jeans, and sneakers; is an avid fan of the [[WorkWithinAWork Super Dude franchise]]; and is very [[KindheartedCatLover affectionate to her pet cat]], Mr. Whiskersworth. Not to mention, she is very loyal to her best friends, [[MrImagination Eugene McGillicuddy]] and [[TokenMinority Charlie Thomas Jones]], and helps them fight "crime" as "superheroes". Meanwhile, the trio's [[SitcomArchNemesis main foe]], [[AlphaBitch Meredith Mooney]], is a typical GirlyGirl, who wears dresses, has her hair tied up with ribbons, and is ''obsessed'' with the color, [[PinkIsFeminine pink]]. However, Meredith is also the class [[TheBully bully]] who constantly name-calls her enemies and mocks them whenever she has the chance. She even ridiculed Sally for being a tomboy on her first day of school.

* ''Literature/HarryPotter'' has Professors Minerva McGonagall and Dolores Umbridge, respectively. The former is a SternTeacher who acts very strict towards her students but genuinely cares about them and is a kind person overall, while the latter acts very gentle and motherly [[BitchinSheepsClothing but is a cruel and remorseless woman]] [[SadistTeacher who personally hates her own students and constantly mistreats them in a very harsh manner.]]
