Anime & Manga

"But, I can't bring myself to love you. For you...I have never felt love. From the moment you were born, I...your mother...I was jealous of the fact she placed all her affection on you."
Gendo Ikari to Shinji Ikari, Neon Genesis Evangelion manga

"I see. You are all grown up now. So much has happened in the last three years. Miss Kaya... do you not remember the things we went through? We spent so much time together, even before your dear sweet parents passed away. You were more than my master; you were my best friend. So much time. So many memories. Together we suffered, and together we rejoiced, like family. I took you on shopping trips to the city, I looked after so diligently when you were ill, and we used to talk for hours and hours. Kaya... listen to me. I was devoted to you. For so long... For so very long. I endured it. I quietly suffered so that today, I could end your life and take everything I deserve! I, who was once the feared and respected Captain Kuro, had to bow and humble myself before some snot-nosed little girl. It went against every fiber of my being. Can you understand the depth of these daily insults? CAN YOU UNDERSTAND THE RAGE CREATED BY THOSE TRANSGRESSIONS AGAINST MY PRIDE!?"
Captain Kuro, One Piece

"I'm going to die because of you, so while I can, I want to make it very clear. I have always fucking hated you and the fact that we were at semi-peace before it all ended is kinda going to haunt me to my grave."
York to South Dakota, Recovery None

Literature

"Oh, give it up, Wax. Admit that I'm right. Did you know, that's the most infuriating thing? When we were young I'd invite you to join me, but you'd judge me instead. You always thought you were too good for me.
I've hated you for decades because you could never just admit it."

Live-Action TV

Jimmy: You told him not to hire me. It was always you, right? Right back to when I passed the bar and tried to join the firm. You didn't want me. Speak up. Tell me why! It's the least you can do for me now! I'm your brother! We're supposed to look out for each other! Why were you working against me, Chuck?!
Chuck: You're not a real lawyer.
Jimmy: I'm what?
Chuck: You're not a real lawyer! University of American Samoa, for Christ's sake?! An online course?! What a joke! I worked my ass off to get where I am, and you take these shortcuts and you think suddenly you're my peer?! You do what I do because you're funny and you can make people laugh?! I committed my life to this! You don't slide into it like a cheap pair of slippers and then reap all the rewards!
Better Call Saul, "Pimento"

Music

"Trapped in this travesty
You've opened up Pandora's box
Struck by reality
It's time to wrap up the show
Yes, it is how it seems
I'm full of animosity
And here I am
Where do you stand?"
R.I.P., "It Should've Been Me"

Video Games

Clive: You lack even a modicum of shame, Slayde! How dare you call yourself a noble after trading away your pride!
Slayde: Pride? Ha! Pride has never filled a man's belly or warmed him in the snow. And while we're speaking, Clive, let me tell you this: I've always despised you. You and your pathetic platitudes! Pride this... Honor that... Only a naïf believes that righteousness will keep a man drawing breath!

"Hey, hey, hey, hey! Don't you think you're getting carried away there? Ugh, what a loser. You good-for-nothing shit-for-brains!"
Moebius D to Moebius J, Xenoblade Chronicles 3

Western Animation

Peter Parker/Spider-Man: Don’t do this, bro!
Eddie Brock/Venom: We’re not brothers! Our parents may have died together, but you had your precious aunt and uncle! We had no one... we’ve always been alone... until now!
The Spectacular Spider-Man, “Nature vs. Nurture”

Debbie: Call that thing off, Cecil. Call it off! Mark's in there.
Cecil: I can't do that, Debbie.
Debbie: Why not?
Cecil: Because I can't. Nolan killed the Guardians, he killed Donald, he's shrugged off everything I've thrown at him and now I don't know if Mark is with his father or against him. So I can't call off the one thing that might stop them both.
Debbie: This is why I have always hated you.
Cecil: ...That's why I hate me too.

Terra: You know, Raven, I never liked you.
Raven: I never even wanted to know you!
Teen Titans (2003), "Aftershock, Part 1"

SpongeBob: I don't like you!
Patrick: I don't like you more!
SpongeBob: I never liked you!
Patrick: I a thousand times never liked you!
SpongeBob: Pink!
Patrick: Yellow!

Homer Simpson: ... [innocently] Hey, I got off pretty easy!
The Simpsons, "Hurricane Neddy"
