Times where somebody is accused of being a Category Traitor in Anime and Manga.
- In Code Geass, some Japanese people consider "honorary Britannians" like Suzaku to lack dignity for having sought honorary citizenship from an occupying conqueror. Doesn't help that only a handful of Britannians are ever shown treating the Honorary Britannians with any respect.
- In the Devilman franchise, Akira Fudo's seen as a traitor by the other demons, who keep on assuming that he's Amon and had simply lost his memories.
- In Digimon Tamers, the Devas and their master consider any Digimon who partners with a human (or for some, who have ever been partnered with a human) to be traitors to their kind.
- Dragon Ball Z: Goku's evil older brother Raditz views him as one to the Saiyan race when he refuses to accept his offer to join them in their violent conquest against Earth, along with many other planets. Vegeta and Nappa are also itching to kill him for his supposed "betrayal".Raditz: I'm sorry, brother... but I was thinking about my offer, and I've changed my mind. You'd probably just slow the rest of us down. And for betraying the Saiyan race, YOU WILL DIE!!!
- In Last Order: Final Fantasy VII, Sephiroth considers all humans traitors to the Cetra, while he's betrayed SOLDIER, Shinra and ruined his reputation as a great hero.
- Mobile Suit Gundam SEED:
- Of course, ZAFT considers Kira a traitor because he fights for Earth while being a genetically modified Coordinator, but even his friends question his engagement sometimes. This mostly comes from the genocidal Patrick Zala, who also considers Lacus and other Coordinators that don't want the genocide of all Naturals this. Athrun thinks Kira is being manipulated instead, and nobody else in ZAFT knows Kira is actually a Coordinator. They think he's just a very good Natural that can pilot a mobile suit.
- On the flip side, the leadership of Blue Cosmos and LOGOS consider Naturals who have anything to do with Coordinators to be traitors. Lord Djibril epitomizes this, employing weapons of mass destruction against Naturals who even accept protection from ZAFT.
- In PandoraHearts Retrace LXXIX, Glen deems Gilbert as one of these to the Baskerville family when the latter defies the former by using Raven to burn off his arm with the seal that controls him and then declaring his loyalty to Oz before escaping with him.
- Rosario + Vampire: In the first season finale, Kuyou, after listing off multiple reasons why Humans Are the Real Monsters, declares outright that Moka, one of his fellow monsters, deserves to die for fraternizing with humans like Tsukune.
- In The Seven Deadly Sins, the goddess and demon races reserve their most lasting and emotionally painful punishments for traitors to their own kind. Although they had been at war since forever, the leaders of both sides, the Demon King and Supreme Deity, immediately agreed that Meliodas and Elizabeth's coupling could not be tolerated and combined powers to curse them for eternity, because anything that threatens to end the eternal Holy War must be destroyed.
- In Tokyo Ghoul, the Ghoul Countermeasures Law codifies this with Article 119. Humans that aid a ghoul in any manner are subject to arrest, and face the Death Penalty for their crimes. When Akira Mado protects a former comrade-turned-ghoul, they are immediately and brutally attacked by their subordinate and left mortally wounded. Treating their injuries proves to be difficult since their "betrayal" of humanity means they cannot seek traditional help from a doctor or hospital.
