* The ''Franchise/{{Nicktoons}} Summer Beach House'' bumpers in 2002 and 2003 depict [[WesternAnimation/SpongeBobSquarePants Plankton]] as having a crush on [[WesternAnimation/HeyArnold Helga Pataki]]. Keep in mind that Plankton is an adult (and not human) while Helga is nine-years-old.

** Azula has some seriously creepy subtext towards almost everyone, especially towards [[IncestSubtext her brother Zuko]], who most of the time she tries to kill. The scene where he questions her about one of her latest schemes in the middle of the night has her acting as close to TheVamp as a PG show could get with an adult woman talking to an unrelated man, so it's quite frankly a miracle that this fourteen-year-old's interactions with her sixteen-year-old brother made it past the censors.

** To some, Smithers' crush on his boss, Mr. Burns who's old, very skinny, ugly, and evil. Funnily enough though, Burns/Smithers has become the most popular ''Simpsons'' ship on Archive Of Our Own despite this, due to how sweet and tender Smithers’ crush on Burns is, and the broadening of beauty standards resulting in several people online admitting that they actually find Mr. Burns attractive.

** [[DirtyOldMan The Ice King]] is seriously creepy. He kidnaps princesses (or outright ''brainwashes them'') so often that most characters treat it as a common nuisance. He does this because he tries to force them to marry him, and the way he justifies himself and his actions channels every abuser/stalker/rapist trope in the book. ''Then'' he transfers all of that obsession towards Finn and Jake (a 13-year-old boy and a dog, respectively), trying to get ''them'' to love him by doing things like using a paralyzing potion on them and forcing them to do stuff with him. It can be interpreted as him wanting a friend, but then there's that fanfiction he wrote in which a {{Gender Flip}}ped Finn declares her undying love for the Ice King.
*** He does get better in later seasons though. He stops kidnapping princesses and the rapey/abusive aspects of his personality are downplayed. Now he's mostly just a weird, lonely old man.

** In "[[Recap/AvatarTheLastAirbenderTheWaterbendingScroll The Waterbending Scroll]]" Zuko's approach on Katara was really disturbing. From exactly ''what'' harm from the pirates does he claim he will protect her? He teases her while putting her necklace back, but it's actually an engagement necklace, so putting it on while immobilizing the girl would be a forced marriage. It's strongly implied/pretty much confirmed in one of the North Pole episodes that even Katara didn't realize that her necklace was an engagement necklace, so it's pretty unlikely that Zuko (who isn't from ''either'' Water Tribe) knew. That they were both unaware that he was taunting her with an engagement necklace may or may not make the scene even creepier.

He does this because he tries to force them to marry him, and the way he justifies himself and his actions channels every abuser/stalker/rapist trope in the book.

** In the aforementioned fanfiction, the Ice Queen is just as creepy towards Fionna (if not moreso), [[spoiler:impersonating her crush and taking her on a date]].
** Thanks to the crown messing up his memory, Ice King is ignorant of the [[ParentalSubstitute father-daughter relationship]] he and Marceline used to share. He once offers to hug her after she confesses she cares for him... and promptly attempts to kiss her. She shoves him away and yells disgustedly "Ugh, not like that!"
* ''WesternAnimation/AdventuresOfTheGalaxyRangers'' episode "Ariel" implied that Niko had a slight crush on her captain, Zachary Foxx, at one point. This is pretty reasonable. Zach's got a lot of MrFanservice factors working in his favor. However the (likely) unintentional resemblance she has to Eliza (Zach's wife) makes it a little creepy. That Maya Danzinger voiced Eliza in her only "live" appearance while Laura Dean (Niko's actress) voiced Eliza in "Space Sorcerer" and "Psychocrypt" (both times, turning out to be someone's attempt to MindScrew Zach)... well, this makes it a ''lot'' creepy.

* ''WesternAnimation/DannyPhantom'':
** Danny and Vlad. Vlad's first appearance alone has him creeping into Danny's room just watching the boy struggle in his sleep, and the multiple attempts Vlad has tried to lure Danny into the dark side, when taken in a different context, sounds almost seductive. And of course "Eye for an Eye" which is a treasure trove of subtext quotes ("I'm rubbing your nose in this mess you made, Daniel, doesn't it smell yummy?" and "You forgot to take your supplements, have a dose of vitamin-ME!" for example) and has them seeing each other naked. Then there's the prepubescent female clone of Danny that Vlad made... whom he only planned to use to perfect a male clone. Given Vlad's obsession with Danny's mother and desire to make Danny his son, Freud would definitely have something Oedipal related to say about it. Even though the series passes Vlad's behavior off as StalkerWithoutACrush, it's still creepy to think about.
** Dark Danny and Danny have one-sided No Yay, with Dark Danny being the one generating it. At one point, he forces a Time Medallion inside Danny's body while Danny screams in pain.
** Technus definitely gives off some [[MemeticMolester pervy vibes]], at one point asking Danny [[DoubleEntendre "Who's your daddy?"]]

* ''WesternAnimation/EdEddNEddy'':
** In the infamous episode "Your Ed Here," Kevin blackmails Eddy into making Eddy kiss Edd ''on the lips.'' Eddy does kiss Edd, and both of them act disgusted after the whole thing.
** In the Valentine's Day special, Eddy sets up a kissing booth. Eddy puckers his lips up, only to find Kevin instead of another girl. Eddy's response?:
-->'''Eddy:''' In your dreams!
* ''WesternAnimation/FamilyGuy'':
** Quagmire, an unattractive and a horny bastard who frequently has sex (consensual or not), generates this constantly. Worse, most of his behavior is PlayedForLaughs.
** The page image shows the time in "[[Recap/FamilyGuyS5E8BarelyLegal Barely Legal]]" where Meg develops a {{Yandere}} interest in Brian (the family's talking dog) after he drunkenly kissed her at her prom. When things go a little too far, Brian talks to Lois about it, only to earn a few punches to the face. This led to an attempt on her part to kidnap and rape him, only to be intervened by her parents.
** Brian himself has an unhealthy obsession with Lois, and he even has Stewie (a talking baby) making infrequent advances on him.
*** Brian's son Dillon prompts Stewie to call him "handsome and muscular" and try to engage in sexual activities with him.
*** And then of course there's the infamous episode where Brian romantically pursues Meg's friend Patty.
** Meg's brief relationship with Adam West, who is ''way older'' than her, and it was revealed that he ''branded his initials on her ass''. Granted, West explicitly said that he [[TheJailBaitWait wasn't going to pursue her sexually until she was eighteen or twenty-one]] and breaks up with her when he realizes that their relationship could get them both in trouble. A much later episode stated that they still went on dates now and then, said episode airing very shortly before he ''became her uncle'' via marriage to Lois's sister, making the relationship that much more squicky in hindsight.
** Herbert's (a creepy old guy) interest in much younger guys like Chris and even in kids like Stewie.
** Stewie's obsession with his mother Lois flip-flops between wanting to kill her and just wanting her.
** Peter (Meg's dad) once had her kiss him on the lips and it was implied that they slept together once.
** Peter orders Chris (his son) to take Lois' place while she is away. Chris, playing Lois, sits next to Peter and compliments his muscles. Peter plays along and promises an obscene sex for that night.
*** There's another time where Peter gave Chris a ring and asked him to marry him.
** In-universe example: Chris and Meg were in Halloween costumes and didn't recognize each other. They ended up playing "Seven Minutes in Heaven". It's not clear what they did for 7 minutes in the closet, but when they discovered who they other was Chris cried "We did so much!".
* ''WesternAnimation/{{Gargoyles}}'':
** [[EvilTwin Thailog]] and [[CloningBlues Delilah]]. Thailog introduces Delilah with the phrase "She'll do anything for me", makes it clear that she and the other clones have been programmed to obey his every whim, and she calls him "master".
** Thailog's behavior towards Elisa in his introductory episode. He touches her face and calls her "my dear" while she's handcuffed to the wall of an oil rig, and makes it clear that he intends on killing her along with Sevarius, Xanatos, and Goliath. He thinks of Goliath as one of his fathers, and WordOfGod is that Thailog has something of an OedipusComplex.
** Sevarius's behavior toward the unconscious Angela in the episode ''Monsters''. He's toying with her hair while she's still unconscious, and orders his assistants to "be gentle" while "collecting the necessary samples." Yikes.
* ''WesternAnimation/GeneratorRex''
** The {{FoeYay}} between Rex and Van Kleiss, given how squicky Van Kleiss himself is. [[MemeticMolester "You are very important to me, Rex"]] indeed. Van Kleiss's persistent efforts to get Rex to join The Pack, plus "I've been watching you for some time now" don't do anything to make him less of a creep.
*** The squick factor isn't helped by the flashback in one of the later episodes. Apparently, Van Kleiss has known Rex since he was a young child (roughly 7 or 8 years old).
** Breach comes across as a particularly horrifying type of {{yandere}} in the episode named after her, in which she traps Rex in her own personal pocket dimension and refers to him as her "new favorite."

** Amon's behavior towards Korra has a lot of scary rape vibes. Same goes for Amon's behavior towards Tahno when [[spoiler:he was taking Tahno's bending away and Tahno was begging him not to do it]]. In the finale [[spoiler:it's revealed Amon is a bloodbender and ends up taking away Korra's bending (or most of it)]] and then says "I told you I would destroy you."
** In episode eight [[spoiler:it is revealed that Tarrlok is a bloodbender who can bloodbend without a full moon]] and his behavior towards Korra gets a lot of rape vibes as well. He used his creepy powers to [[spoiler:kidnap her and was planning to start a new life with her as his hostage]].
** Eska and Bolin. While it was seen as comic relief, Eska's behavior drifts off into dangerous territory. The scene where she "proposes" to Bolin is the reason why this couple is here. Fans who have seen this claim that the necklace Eska gave Bolin looks like a BDSM collar. There have also been thoughts about what their first night together would have been like, some of them including Desna watching the couple have sex. What completes this is Eska's face when she's approaching Varrick's yacht. Even though LoveRedeems Eska, you still can't help, but wonder what brought on her violent and possessive behavior.
* ''WesternAnimation/MyLifeAsATeenageRobot'': Vexus's obsession with Jenny.
* For some reason, ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic'' has a few examples:
** "The Return of Harmony" has [[GodOfEvil Discord]] get uncomfortably close to Twilight Sparkle. As in, constantly [[NoSenseOfPersonalSpace invading her personal space]], wrapping an arm around her, grabbing her, and at one point he ''strokes her face''. He also displays a suspicious amount of glee as he slowly [[BreakTheCutie breaks her]] and drives her off of the DespairEventHorizon (as opposed to the other ponies, who he gives a quick brainwashing to and then leaves alone). If his comments to [[BigGood Celestia]] ("Did you miss me, Celestia?") are any indication, this is just [[ManipulativeBastard how Discord treats all his foes]], which could make it slightly better or much, much worse.
*** Even after he's [[ReformedButNotTamed reformed]], Discord ''still'' does this to Twilight in "Three's a Crowd", and it is ''all'' very uncomfortable. Out of all the times he gets, erm, ''physical'' with the ponies only one hug from him in the Season 4 Finale is actually reciprocated.
*** Twilight's not the only one who gets this treatment. In "Make New Friends But Keep Discord" he teleports into Spike's bed ''under the covers while he's sleeping'', wakes him up, glares into his eyes from less than six inches away, and asks where Twilight is before poofing away again. Poor Spike is left huddled in the fetal position with the covers wrapped around him, shivering.
** In "Hearts and Hooves Day" Cheerilee and Big [=McIntosh=] become an [[TastesLikeDiabetes overly]] [[BabyTalk cutesy]] couple... because they had been slipped a LovePotion and were not entirely conscious of their own actions, drawing a disturbing parallel to date drugs.
** The episode "Flutter Brutter" introduced Fluttershy's brother Zephyr Breeze; he regularly [[AbhorrentAdmirer flirts]] and [[NoSenseOfPersonalSpace gets too close for comfort for Rainbow Dash]], who is shown to be clearly ''not'' okay with this. Later episodes show that, it goes way beyond her just being not okay with it, she is very well aware of what he wants, and is actively disgusted by him to the point of [[BrainBleach nausea]].
* In ''WesternAnimation/PhineasAndFerb'', Jeremy's sister Suzy behaves almost like a huge {{Yandere}} around him.
** There are a ''lot'' of episodes that tease FoeYay between Dr. Doofenshmirtz, a {{gonk}}y middle-aged human scientist, and Perry, and a tiny anthropomorphic platypus. The scenes can be heartwarming, but other times they can be disturbing, such as "The Remains of the Platypus" when Doof (who spends much of the episode in his underwear) brainwashes Perry to be his servant.
* In an early episode of ''WesternAnimation/SamuraiJack'', Jack meets a female warrior named Ikra, who joins him on his quest! (Aww!) The two of them get along and even seem to flirt! (How sweet!) [[spoiler:Ikra turns out to be [[BigBad Aku]]! (AUGH ABANDON SHIP ABANDON SHIP)]]
* ''WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons'':
** Smithers' crush on his boss, Mr. Burns who's old, very skinny, ugly, and evil.
** "[[Recap/TheSimpsonsS4E7MargeGetsAJob Marge Gets a Job]]", Marge got a job at the nuclear plant and Mr. Burns developed a thing for her.
** A [[CharlieAndTheChocolateParody Willy Wonka]] {{Expy}} becomes Bart's business parter, and Homer has to say the following about this:
-->''Nothing makes a parent happier than when an eccentric single man takes an interest in their child!''
** Sure, the "[[Recap/TheSimpsonsS27E5TreehouseOfHorrorXXVI Treehouse of Horror XXVI]]" segment "Wanted: Dead, then Alive" features some ([[FoeRomanceSubtext possibly romantic]]) FoeYay subtext between Sideshow Bob and Bart (Bob even goes further when he decides to revive his ArchEnemy because it brought him some excitement in his life); but on the other hand, Music/ElvisCostello's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aU_zMvaX05Q "Accidents Will Happen"]],[[note]]a song about "the gamesmanship of romance" and "a kiss-off to a lover given her walking papers for crimes both real and imagined"[[/note]] played in the background of Bart's DeathMontage, may be this, since the song implies Bob to be a pedophile or a MemeticMolester [[RapeAndRevenge taking revenge toward Bart]]. Perhaps the song is a bit too... unsettling. Well, that... and the "I ♥ Bart" tattoo on Bob's back and the [[ILoveTheDead necrophilia between both of them]].
*** There's also that time where he kidnaps Bart and sings to him "I've grown accustomed to his face! And dream of [[EyeScream gouging out his eyes]]!"
* ''WesternAnimation/SouthPark'':
** In "[[Recap/SouthParkS4E7ChefGoesNanners Chef Goes Nanners]]", Wendy and Cartman, who are usually enemies, pair up for a debate and subsequently fall so hard in this that Wendy dreams about [[FatBastard Cartman]] riding into a mountain meadow, ''shirtless'', on a white horse.
** Cartman and "Mr. Jefferson" in "[[Recap/SouthParkS8E6TheJeffersons The Jeffersons]]". Stan even has a dream about them almost making out!
** Cartman and Scott Tenorman, especially in "201" when Scott begins grabbing Cartman... and getting awfully close to his face... This quickly goes into squick territory when it's discovered that Eric and Scott are half-brothers.
** Cartman's unhealthy obsession with hating on and making Kyle [[{{Sadist}} suffer]]. Considering he only saved Kyle solely to rip on him further and another time just for him to [[ItMakesSenseInContext suck his balls]], his rivalry with him is more than creepy...
** Cartman's treatment of Butters, whether he's just bullying Butters or manipulating Butters to be his [[MinionWithAnFInEvil sidekick]], often slips into sexual subjugation subtext. "Cartman Sucks" is the crowning example, in which Cartman pranks Butters by drugging him with cough syrup at a sleepover and taking a photo sucking Butters' penis (and later tricking Butters into doing the reverse), which is essentially rape ([[DoubleStandardRapeMaleOnMale played for laughs]]). "Stunning and Brave" also has Cartman sniffing Butters' underwear.
* WesternAnimation/{{SpongeBob|SquarePants}} and Squidward given the former's creepy obsession with him. Don't see it? Come on! [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UlAW58yURDc They're like brothers]], ''[[BodyHorror only closer]]''.
* In ''WesternAnimation/StarWarsTheCloneWars'', the very first time Ahsoka met Cad Bane, he electrocuted her ''twice'' -- first to knock her out, then [[ForTheEvulz just for the fun of it]] -- handcuffed her, caressed her head in a rather creepy manner, before taking her Padawan Braid as a trophy. Much later, when Ahsoka protected an unconscious Anakin from him, he left, promising her a dance at an other time. Then there's Garnac, the leader of a Trandoshan hunting party, who hunted Ahsoka and other kidnapped Jedi children on a jungle moon. He provided lines like these:
-->'''Garnac''' She (Ahsoka) can't hide for ever! Mark my words, I'll have her skin, and nail it to the wall [[spoiler:for killing my son!]]\\
'''Garnac''' A valiant effort little younglings. Esspecially You, togruta. You'll be a prized trophy of my collection.
* ''WesternAnimation/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtles1987'' has Shredder and Krang, two villains who always bicker LikeAnOldMarriedCouple. Keep in mind that one of them is a slimy brain monster.
* ''WesternAnimation/TeenTitans'':
** Slade embodies this trope on multiple occasions. The ridiculous amounts of FoeYay with Robin, his not at all wholesome partnership with Terra, his [[DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything highly suggestive]] MindRape of Raven and suggestive lines/actions towards her in "Birthmark"... the man causes a lot of this. Made even worse because Slade/Terra is a ''canon pairing'' in [[ComicBook/TeenTitans the comic]]. (Though Terra is far, far, far more evil there.)
** Trigon, Raven's demonic father, and Raven.
** Fang, a guy with a spider for a head has Kitten as a girlfriend and they once are shown ''kissing''.
* There are those who choose to see Prowl and Lockdown of ''WesternAnimation/TransformersAnimated'' in a slashy light. Why is this disturbing? Because one of them is [[OrganTheft Lock]][[CreepySouvenir down]]. There is no good way for someone else to wear your body parts.
* The way Cedric from ''WesternAnimation/{{WITCH}}'' acts around Elyon makes him seem like a predator trying to groom her. His constantly low pitched and slithering tone of voice are certainly at least a little unsettling. It doesn't help that Cedric is a grown man while Elyon is a middle schooler.
* In ''WesternAnimation/TheVentureBrothers'', the InterruptedIntimacy between Dr. Venture and Dr. Quymn is No Yay, ''if'' you interpret the episode as subtly hinting that they are half-siblings. In-universe, Dr. Venture has his own reasons for being squicked out in hindsight:
-->'''Dean:''' Dr. Quymn is the [[EveryoneIsASuspect wereodile]]!\\
'''Dr. Venture:''' She's... Oh, my God, I almost fucked a wereodile!\\
[...]\\
'''Ginny:''' She's not a wereodile! She's an epileptic.\\
'''Dr. Venture:''' Ew!
