This trope is under discussion in the Trope Repair Shop.







This young girl's greatest fear isn't monsters. It isn't evil. It isn't even death. No, her greatest fear overshadows all of these.
Her greatest fear is to be alone.
The Dark Magical Girl is this fear personified, molded into a dark parody of the Magical Girl. Where the Magical Girl is a force for good and light, the Dark Magical Girl's virtues have all been twisted to serve evil. It is worth noting that a Dark Magical Girl is rarely evil themselves, being closer to a dark, violent brand of neutral.
Normal Magical Girls have a good relationship with their family members, they make friends at school — they may be a little dim, but that's okay, and this all translates into the magical ability to defend what they love from external threats.
A Dark Magical Girl doesn't have that. For her, Parental Abandonment is not funny or convenient. Her parents are absent at best and abusive at worst, and though she's smart, she can't understand why her life has turned out as it is. She doesn't have real friends or exploits past the academic (if she goes to school). This is because she either doesn't know how to communicate socially or she's already lost her friends and wants to avoid making new ones, the loss of which will just bring her further pain. If she seems outwardly creepy, it's another unfortunate reason people avoid her, which only leads to her being further perceived as evil or otherwise abnormal.
She often acts as The Dragon to the Big Bad, from whom she may crave approval as a parental figure. Inevitably, the Dark Magical Girl will fight the Magical Girl, acting as her Evil Counterpart or Shadow Archetype, her motivation being acknowledgment from the Big Bad or jealousy of everything the heroine has that she does not.
She doesn't want the Magical Girl's pity, but the MG usually tries to reach out to her and gain her friendship regardless. A Magical Girl symbolizes the triumph of virtue, justice, and The Power of Love. A Dark Magical Girl asks if there is redemption and salvation for the cursed and lost. Magical Girl shows tend to come down on the idealist side of the Sliding Scale of Idealism Versus Cynicism, so the DMG almost always gets converted to the good guys' side by the end. Once this happens, most Dark Magical Girls tend to be fiercely loyal to the Magical Girl heroine.
The abilities of the Dark Magical Girl are often polar opposites to the Magical Girl's. She is also usually faster, smarter, and more ruthless than the MG, making her the primary obstacle to the MG's triumph. Younger Dark Magical Girls tend to be Little Miss Badasses, even if they are a Cute Witch. If she is a Magical Girl Warrior, she's frequently a Lady of War. Dark Magical Girl outfits are often color-coded black to contrast the heroines' pink, and are usually slightly more fetishy, which might explain why a Heel–Face Turn doesn't always mean a switch in costume. Dark Magician Girls on the good guy's side tend to be exemplars of Dark Is Not Evil.
As a reminder, the "Dark" in Dark Magical Girl refers to her personality and characterization, not the nature of her powers. In fact, a woman whose powers aren't "dark" in nature can still qualify for this trope if she has the right personality and characterization; as mentioned above, usually the driving force behind the actions of a Dark Magical Girl is some combination of her desire for approval from her parental figure, fear of being alone, or jealousy towards everything the Magical Girl has.
The Dark Magical Girl is a subtrope of Anti-Villain. Almost always The Woobie type on the sliding scale of anti-villains. Not to be confused with the Black Magician Girl, the Lady of Black Magic, the Magical Girl Genre Deconstruction (often referred to as "Dark Magical Girl Genre"), and especially not the Dark Action Girl (who is quite different). Or Dark Magician Girl for that matter.

Farideh, the main character of Brimstone Angels, certainly meets the criteria. She's brooding, angsty, cynical, sarcastic, and her powers come from a literal Deal with the Devil, all of which ultimately comes from the fact that Farideh is a tiefling: a humanoid with devil heritage, complete with the horns and tail. Farideh spent her childhood subjected to the Fantastic Racism of people who believe tieflings are Always Chaotic Evil (they're not, and Farideh least of all), which resulted in her brooding personality, but she's still an ultimately good person, much to the chagrin of her devilish patron, Lorcan. While she's constantly worried that either her heritage or her pact (or both) make her damned no matter what, the truth is she's a heroic and kind person, albiet with a chip on her shoulder.

Agatha Prenderghast from ParaNorman is a rare Big Bad example. She is The Hero Norman's Evil Counterpart and Shadow Archetype, who became a Vengeful Ghost due to her bitterness and pain upon the Dark and Troubled Past (where she was killed by the townspeople who feared her powers despite she did nothing evil). Even more obvious if you interpret her as a Foil for Norman, whose All-Loving Hero and The Cutie traits can be compared to a typical Magical Girl heroine, especially when his kindness is what causes Agatha to do a Heel–Face Turn and finally be at rest.

In the sort-of sequel, Boruto, Sumire Kakei plays this VERY well. She was raised by her dead father for the sole purpose of exacting his revenge on Konoha by blowing it up with a giant monster, Nue, for which she would serve as the summoner. Her dedication to that purpose is so great that she's willing to die for it... until Boruto talks her out of it.

Yomi Takanashi from Black★Rock Shooter is a girl that very much counts for this, though the circumstances of the OVA make that version more fitting than the anime one. She was introduced as a nice, although quiet girl that quickpy befriended main heroine Mato, and they hit it off quite well. That is... until Yuu was introduced into their group, and Mato began to interact more and more with Yuu and less and less with Yomi, not helped by them having been transfered to separate classrooms. She would begin to feel like the third wheel in their relationship, and the constantly building jealousy and loneliness would eventually cause her "other self", the Elegant Gothic Lolita Grim Reaper known as Dead Master, to become the dominant personality and kidnap her into the world of the other selves. It is only after Mato encounters her own other self, the eponymous Black Rock Shooter, that she can fuse with her willingly to gain the power to fight against Dead Master and eventually save Yomi via a Cooldown Hug that causes Dead Master to disappear, with only Yomi remaining in Mato/BRS' arms and them escaping back into the real world, their friendship reforged. And then Yuu begins feeling left out...
Speaking of Yuu, her anime series version is another example that actually somewhat works in the proper "Magical Girl" context. Having been bullied extensively by her classmates and ignored/outright abused by her parents, she had nothing in her life until meeting Saya. And then her home burned down due to her father falling asleep with a lit cigarette in his hand. Having thoroughly fallen to despair and discovered the other world, she ends up swapping places with her other self, Strength, just to avoid the pain of the real world and stay in a far simpler one where all you have to do is fight. This does not help her sanity at all, as when Insane Black Rock Shooter comes around and they fight, Yuu turns out to have gone utterly bonkers from the years of endless bloody combat. After Strength attempts to pull a Heroic Sacrifice to stop them from killing each other, and actually (albeit only temporarily) dies by the end, Yuu is convinced to return to the real world, with new friends in Mato and crew to keep her out of any slumps she may fall into in the future.

Nova from Magic Knight Rayearth anime is this along with Evil Doppelgänger. She's basically a personification of Hikaru's despair and guilt over killing Emeraude, and because of that, she was indirectly tossed away to Cephiro and then picked up by Lady Debonair as her dragon. She constantly makes attempt to 'play' with Hikaru (e.g: killing her friends because she's very possessive) but eventually her issues were revealed and Debonair tossed her away for running out of uses. By that time, Hikaru has fixed up her personal issues and chose to finally grant Nova something she wanted: To not being alone by accepting her guilt and despair and allowed her to re-merge back to her.

Puella Magi Madoka Magica:
Homura Akemi is the in-house poster girl for this trope. From the first episode she is a cold and aloof antagonist contrasting the warm and friendly Madoka. In truth she was Good All Along and has been opposing Kyuubey (the Big Bad of the series) and doing everything for the sake of Madoka. She invoked this trope for the sake of not getting too close to, and thus hurting, Madoka.
Kyouko is an antagonistic magical girl but her foil is Sayaka. On one hand we have the red Social Darwinist and on the other we have the blue Knight in Shining Armor. They fight over their conflicting philosophies but eventually Kyouko reaches out to Sayaka in friendship and becomes a more heroic magical girl because Sayaka reminded her of the idealism she lost.
Sayaka herself is a inversion. Initially a straight Magical Girl, her isolation/despair changes her into a monster because Kyouko convinced her it was better to be selfish and she already had severe problems before becoming a Magical Girl.
Puella Magi Madoka Magica The Movie: Rebellion flips things a bit. Sayaka Came Back Strong and moves past her prior faults and doubts. She even summons her witch form as a Guardian Entity, metaphorically accepting her own despair and using it to empower herself. On the other hand, Homura's journey through the movie causes her to realize that she can't accept Madoka's Abstract Apotheosis Heroic Sacrifice at the end of the anime. This drives her into a Face–Heel Turn where she steals Madoka's powers and turns her into an ordinary girl so that Homura can fulfill her one selfish desire: To have a world where Madoka can be happy. In other words, Homura becomes a Dark Magical Girl Devil to oppose Madoka's Magical Girl Goddess.
Puella Magi Tart Magica gives us Lapin, Minou, and Corbeau, three deeply disturbed magical girls on the English side of the Hundred Years' War. All three crave the love and acceptance of their mother, Isabeau de Bavierre, and think they need nothing but her and each other. All three went through hell as Isabeau's children, experiencing homelessness and the trauma of witnessing Isabeau turn into a witch in front of them. Minou is the most depraved and broken of the three, as she kills Corbeau herself when Corbeau sensibly realizes they'll die if they don't stop following Isabeau and manipulates Lapin into continuing the fight. Unlike most takes on the trope, they are not redeemed and instead all end up dead, Minou in particular by her own hand after refusing to repent or join the French magical girls.
Puella Magi Oriko Magica: Oriko Mikuni had her mother die, her father framed for criminal actions and then commit suicide, and was abandoned by the rest of her extended family. Her classmates ostracized her, telling her she should drop out of school out of shame. She was left completely alone, unable to even heat her house, when she was visited by Kyubey and wished to know the meaning of her life. Unfortunately, her wish led her to see Krimhield Gretchen, giving her the purpose of killing Madoka to prevent an Apocalypse Now. Her only friend and Love Interest is the equally disturbed Serial Killer Kirika Kure, who was similarly ostracized after being framed for criminal actions and wished to become anything Oriko needed after Oriko showed her the smallest bit of kindness.

Morgan Le-Fay is the closest to a Dark Magical Girl in the Ah! My Goddess franchise. She appears in the Movie, as a beautiful fairy who works as the messenger of Big Bad and Belldandy's first love Celestin, who sends her to drive Keiichi and Belldandy apart so he can use this to make Belldandy his Apocalypse Maiden and then go Rage Against the Heavens. It's later explained that Morgan lost her lover when they couldn't go through the Gate of Judgement as a test of their love, which emotionally broke her; when Keiichi and Belldandy manage to pass through it in the end, Margan's faith in love and the world is ultimately restored, and she becomes the guardian of said Gate to help people in love.

Zelena, also known as The Wicked Witch of the West, is a straighter example of this. She's so jealous of the life given to her sister Regina by her mother that she turns into a literal Green-Eyed Monster. Ironically, the Magical Girl who she fights is her sister Regina, post Heel–Face Turn.

The Shin Megami Tensei series has Alice, who just wants to make friends, but has no idea that asking everyone she meets to die for her before brutally murdering them probably isn't the best way to go about it. This is all because she befriended a couple of very powerful demons who gave her magical powers that ended up driving her insane, killing her, and raising her as a very powerful undead child with no understanding of death.

Yugi from Tenchi in Tokyo, in a rare Big Bad example. She was an Artificial Human created for experiments and had few idea of how the world worked as well as how much she hurt others with her powers. This lead to her being sealed away by the then-Juraian Empress Hinase (an ancestor of Ayeka and Sasami) as the only solution despite how she was terrified of darkness and isolation. She grew VERY bitter and brewed an Evil Plan to conquer the Universe (which involved creating Sakuya to wreak havoc among Tenchi and his Unwanted Harem among other things), befriended Sasami who became her Morality Pet (to the point of deliberately keeping her out of her plans, and then kidnapping her to keep her by her side). To defeat her Tenchi had to reason with her and pull her outta a Villainous Breakdown (in which she cries and screams that she doesn't want to be buried again) instead of killing her. One Get A Hold Of Yourself Man and Cool-Down Hug later, she's redeemed.

The page image is the original series' iconic Fate Testarossa, who spends the majority of the season attempting to gather the Jewel Seeds before Nanoha, at the behest of her mother, Precia. Eventually, she ends up severely overexerting herself in an attempt to obtain all of the remaining Seeds at once, and is stopped by a concerned Nanoha. Fate ends up returning home empty-handed, and it is at this point that we learn that Fate is a clone of Precia's biological daughter, Alicia, who has spent the past thirty years in medical stasis after a severe accident. Precia considers Fate a failed project, does not acknowledge her as a person, let alone as a daughter, and lashes her with a whip when she doesn't fulfill Precia's orders. The aforementioned scene rapidly converts most viewers' attitude from enjoying the somewhat humorous tone and subversiveness of the series to "PRECIA TESTAROSSA MUST DIE".

Power Rangers usually prefers the Dark Action Girl route, but Marah and Kapri from Power Rangers Ninja Storm, Lothor's bumbling nieces, are more DMG-ish. They don't really want to be evil; they just want to be normal teenage girls, valued by their uncle ("By marriage", as Lothor points out.). He finally leaves them to be destroyed in the Grand Finale, but Cam, Lothor's biological nephew, reluctantly decides to save them "because they're family". In the Reunion Show, they pretended to rejoin Lothor, but actually worked behind the scenes to free Cam's father, Kanoi... who then went on to save Cam, Hunter, and Blake... who then went on to save the Dino Thunder Power Trio from being wiped out by Ninja Storm's trio.

Liadain Shiel in Nowhere Stars is an Anti-Hero protagonist example. A terminally ill girl consigned to a hospice ward, forgotten by the friends she once had, and largely ignored by a father who would rather not think about her. When her chance to become a Keeper arrives, she accepts it purely on the hope that she can find a way to cure herself with magic and live forever, and is no less isolated and mistrustful of others for her newfound power.

An odd example comes from Magic Kaito, where Black Magic practitioner Akako Koizumi is a mix of this and Hot Witch in a series otherwise devoid of anything magical. After Akako falls for Kaitou for repeatedly failing to control him into loving her (including trying to kill him once), she joins his circle of friends and helps him in her own way.

Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia's Shanoa is a rare example of the protagonist being this type of character, an Emotionless Girl with little apparent life outside the titular Order of Ecclesia dedicated to destroying Dracula once and for all. Her story ends with her having to kill her brother who was trying to stop her from inadvertently killing herself due to their master's manipulations, having said master sacrifice his life to release Dracula after a brutal battle where he cruelly taunts her the entire time. Though she eventually destroys Dracula in the end, she's left an empty shell with her family gone and no apparent purpose in life left. And her lack of social skills become quite apparent when talking to the villagers she rescues. To drive home the point, a late-game Glyph power-up gives her jet black wings whereas traditional magical girls like Cardcaptor Sakura would receive white angelic wings.

Star Wars: The Clone Wars has Asajj Ventress. The only reason she fought for the Separatists seemed to be her starving for Dooku's approval, her greatest fear is being left with nothing, and she gradually turned away from the Dark Side, after Dooku abandoned her. The 'Magical Girl' she's foiling is Ahsoka, a Jedi Padawan with similar approval seeking from her own master.

Played with in ViVid Strike!. Unlike most Dark Magical Girls, Rinne actually has a previous connection with her Magical Girl counterpart (being Childhood Friends) and her family is the one part of her life that isn't messed up. She also isn't working for evil forces and is instead driven by the fear that if she's isn't the strongest that she'll lose everything she cares about.

Powerpuff Girls Z has both Princess Morbucks and Sedusa, the evil super-powered alter-egos of more sympathetic, troubled girls, Himeko and Annie.
In the anime, Himeno's stepsister Mawata briefly plays the role after she's cruelly rejected by a Face Heel Turned Sasame in favor of Takako and is overwhelmed by her loneliness. Takako then steals Mawata's soul via a Kiss of Death and locks her in a magical tree, where the poor girl is pretty much turned into its core; Himeno has to make a MASSIVE effort to get Mawata back, and then she goes off to face and redeem Takako.

Dark Sailor Mercury from Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon is not just an ordinary Dark Magical Girl, but a former regular Magical Girl corrupted and co-opted by the bad guys. It takes Moon MORE than a mere "I Know You're in There Somewhere" Fight to bring her back to the side of good. Mio Kuroki in the special act is this, made out entire evil.

Chidori Yoshino from Persona 3 very much fits the bill. Besides being part of Strega, a group of Persona users who oppose the protagonists, she's also an orphan who was one of only a few kids to survive the hideous experiments that turned her into a Persona user; as such, she has little desire to live and is afraid of any sort of attachment. She doesn't even really care about her teammates, and only stays with Strega because she has nowhere else to go. She also sharply contrasts S.E.E.S.'s female members; the latter dress like normal teenagers and have a strong connection to their Personas, while Chidori dresses like a Elegant Gothic Lolita and has to continually take drugs if she doesn't want to be killed by her own Persona. Chidori's desire for friendship and love gradually reawakens as she spends more time with The Lancer Junpei, but the two are ultimately Star-Crossed Lovers, as Chidori ends up sacrificing herself to save Junpei. You can give the couple a happier ending in the FES and Portable remakes, but it's not exactly easy to achieve.

Persona 5: The traitor, Goro Akechi, also pretty much fits the bill apart from being male. They're a bastard child who was passed around an assortment of abusive foster homes after their mother committed suicide out of shame, their father having abandoned them before their birth. As such, their ultimate desire is receiving love and affection; Akechi not only revels in the public adulation he receives as "the second coming of the Detective Prince", but willingly becomes The Dragon for his evil birth father as part of a twisted revenge plan to make his father finally acknowledge him. On top of that, Akechi has the same "Wild Card" power as the protagonist; however, Akechi's borderline sociopathy means that unlike the protagonist, he's unable to cultivate the genuine friendships needed to unlock the wide assortment of Personas available to the hero. Finally, they're incredibly envious of the protagonist, as shown in their Motive Rant:

Miyu of the Vampire Princess Miyu TV series starts out as largely this archetype — a reserved, lonely girl whose only companions are her Team Pet, Shiina, and her battle partner, Larva. However, she's a very atypical case, as she's the main character, and begins to grow out of it due to discovering friends, rather than being lured out of it by the magical girl. Her rival, Reiha, is a more straight example.

Crona the Demon Sword User from Soul Eater. Their mother, Medusa the Witch, "trained" Crona by forcing Crona to beat their pet rabbit to death, and locked Crona in a closet until they agreed to do so. Then Medusa ate the rabbit. They also have the Black Blood taint and a demonic sword, Ragnarok, fused with their body through their mother's mad science. Maka befriends them with warrior therapy and became their staunchest supporter after their Heel–Face Turn.

This trope is subverted in Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha ViVid: Heidi E. S. Ingvalt is set up as a Dark Magical Girl to Nanoha's daughter Vivio, but is soon revealed to be the secret identity of Einhart Stratos, Vivio's fellow student from the local Wizarding School. Granted, Einhart has a lot of archetypal DMG traits, such as loneliness, introversion, single-minded devotion to a purpose (the perfection of her ancestral martial art), and a rivalry with the main character (Vivio), but the two of them become close friends early in the story, skipping most of the usual magical girl foreplay.

The Owl House: Hunter qualifies as a male example. As the Golden Guard, he's The Dragon to Emperor Belos, his abusive uncle, who specifically raised the boy to crave his approval by instilling him with the belief that all love must be earned. Hunter turns out to be a decent guy on his own, albeit socially awkward due to his lack of friends, but his desperate need to please Belos forces him to clash with the protagonists who see him as more pitiable than evil. However, after learning the Awful Truth about him and Belos, he makes a Heel–Face Turn and joins the heroes.

In Corrector Yui, Ai Shinozaki aka Corrector Ai takes the role of corrector, firstly and mostly for her own goals, and not because she wants to save ComNet as Yui or the other Software Programs. Said goal? She wants to help her comatose mom Azusa, a talented programmer whose conscience has been lost online for so long, that from one moment or another, she could be declared clinically dead if she never regains it. So thanks to the hardships she's lived, she is aloof and quiet and prefers to work alone, and it takes Yui a lot to reach for her...

Wedding Peach:
Nocturne of the Night, who was a singer who was only able to sing with the aid of a magical bracelet passed down through her family. One of her 'friends' asked to try on the bracelet, then took it, scarred her, and backstabbed her. She lost her voice and her love, and then was approached to become a demon. Part of her powers involve turning friends on each other, just like how she was turned on as a human, and plunging others into her eternal darkness. Upon hearing this, the Love Angels try to redeem her instead of destroying her, though they only succeed at Redemption Equals Death.
The demon Viento, Yosuke Fuuma, is a male example in the manga. Viento is a half-devil raised by his single mother after his father abandoned their family. He is deeply resentful over his father leaving them when they needed him most. As Yosuke, he's a Jerk with a Heart of Gold eclipsed in popularity by Captain Yanagiba. Nonetheless he and Momoko become close to one another, only for his father Uragano to return, awaken his demonic powers, and kidnap him. Viento then seems determined to destroy the Love Angels by force to please his father. In reality, he's trying to gain Rain Devila's trust with the intention of killing her, even if it means dying himself. He also intends on killing his Jerkass father. Momoko goes to the Devil World to rescue him and helps him mend fences with his father, genuinely redeeming Uragano and saving Viento's life.

Which she gets when she meets Peter and the Lost Boys, and specially after bonding with Wendy Darling.

Master Cyclonis from Storm Hawks has hints of this. She serves as foil to the heroic Piper to an insane degree. The difference, however, is that Piper has allies while Master Cyclonis is "a lonely girl who desperately wants a friend." Sadly, the show was cancelled after her time as the Big Bad concluded, so what may have happened to her next we'll never know.

Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha StrikerS features Lutecia Alpine, a powerful summoner who has lost most of her emotional capacity due to manipulation by the Big Bad who uses her talents to advance his agenda while promising her to help her mother, who has been in coma for most of Lutecia's life. What he doesn't tell Lutecia, however, is that he himself ordered the attack that left Megane in coma in the first place. Notably, Lutecia's Magical Girl counterpart who eventually befriends her is not the title character but Caro Ru Lushe, one of Nanoha's students and Fate's adoptive daughter.

The main character of Gushing over Magical Girls, Hiiragi Utena is a Played for Laughs example. She was recruited to be the Tres Magia magical girl team's greatest foe (by not telling her which side she would be fighting her), her mentor manipulating her into giving into her darker desires (leaving BDSM porn mags for her to find), and she's Trapped in Villainy (under threat of her various videos being released to twitter or her porn mags being left for her mother to find).

Jinx also counts insofar as she starts out as a villain because she believed the bad luck-inflicting of her powers meant she could only ever be a bad guy before Kid Flash convinces her otherwise and she undergoes a Heel–Face Turn.

Cardcaptor Sakura:
Cardcaptor Sakura: The Movie gives us The Enchantress. The contrast with her and Sakura, the Magical Girl, is revealed over the course of the movie. Mahoudoushi is a lonely Hot Witch who practised Black Magic, and she turned sour after her lover and mentor Clow sealed her away. After fighting the Magical Girl and losing, she has a Heel–Face Turn, and manages to finally pass on in peace.
The Big Bad from Cardcaptor Sakura Movie 2: The Sealed Card, The Nothing Card. All that she wants is to have her old friends alias the other Clow/Sakura Cards back to her side. She reacts with fright, tears and screams if it seems someone will seal her away for a second time, then unleashes her magic in terror. She doesn't so much as flinch to erasing an entire town's populace in her frenzied search. It is only when she realises such actions mean the cards won't accept her that she begins to doubt her methods, and Sakura then fuses Nothing with The Nameless Card, creating The Hope card.

There are two women in Sorcerer Stabber Orphen that fit in the trope:
In the first season, Azalie Caith Sith is the rare Big Bad version. She once was a Child Prodigy in magic but her affections for her Sexy Mentor Childman were, at some point, rejected since he didn't want her feelings to hinder her search for knowledge. To ease her grief she turned to her studies and became the most powerful and ambitious sorceress in the Tower of Fangs... and then she turned herself into the Eldritch Abomination Bloody August via an experiment, leading to her adoptive younger brother Krylancelo/Orphen's quest to save her. But even in her monstrous form, she keeps her deeply wounded human feelings, torn between her love for Childman and her desire for revenge against the Tower for trying to kill her rather than redeem her.
The second season has Esperanza, a beautiful spellcaster with blazing red hair, the sad stare of a caged bird (according to Cleao), and a mysterious attitude, who follows Orphen around and messes with his plans. She and her father have taken a Deal with the Devil to save Esperanza's sister, and as a result she's been emotionally shattered.

Puella Magi Tart Magica gives us Lapin, Minou, and Corbeau, three deeply disturbed magical girls on the English side of the Hundred Years' War. All three crave the love and acceptance of their mother, Isabeau de Bavierre, and think they need nothing but her and each other. All three went through hell as Isabeau's children, experiencing homelessness and the trauma of witnessing Isabeau turn into a witch in front of them. Minou is the most depraved and broken of the three, as she kills Corbeau herself when Corbeau sensibly realizes they'll die if they don't stop following Isabeau and manipulates Lapin into continuing the fight. Unlike most takes on the trope, they are not redeemed and instead all end up dead, Minou in particular by her own hand after refusing to repent or join the French magical girls.

Naruto:
If the flashbacks are to be believed, Hinata could have been this if not for Naruto's influence on her. She has the same father-issues and the loneliness and 'group pariah' status as Naruto. One could say her crush on Naruto acted like a vaccine against DMGness instead of a cure.
In the sort-of sequel, Boruto, Sumire Kakei plays this VERY well. She was raised by her dead father for the sole purpose of exacting his revenge on Konoha by blowing it up with a giant monster, Nue, for which she would serve as the summoner. Her dedication to that purpose is so great that she's willing to die for it... until Boruto talks her out of it.

Charmcaster from Ben 10, the antithesis to Magical Girl Gwen. In the third series, Ben 10: Ultimate Alien, it turns out that her whole motive for being evil is to gain enough power to free her home dimension from a tyrannical being that killed her parents and left her lonely and bitter. She ends up developing a typical Magical Girl-Dark Magical Girl bond with Gwen as well, and even when she relapses later, Gwen is still insistent on helping her toward goodness. At one point, Gwen could have had an anime spin-off, in which Charmcaster would have finally gone full-circle with this trope.

Tomboy: A very unique example of the trope. The magical girl elements are a result of a combination of the main characters hallucinations and the fact that she's a fan of an in-universe, more traditional magical girl, Princess Cherry Cherry. The princess herself becomes a sort of dark magical girl as Addison sees hallucinations (or maybe visions?) of Princess Cherry Cherry encouraging her to seek bloody vengeance for the murder of her boyfriend and his dad, and telling her to transform when enraged or in danger.

Misao Amano from Pretty Sammy. While her magical girl form Pixy Misa might not act troubled, in Magical Project S she fulfills the trope to the letter. (One wonders if Fate Testarossa might owe something to Misa, given that both Pretty Sammy and Lyrical Nanoha were Spin Offs of existing series where the Token Mini-Moe becomes a Magical Girl...)

Onpu Segawa from Ojamajo Doremi wears a darker outfit, is aloof and mostly antagonistic attitude toward the heroes, and has parental issues (to a degree) Until the end of the first series when said Power Trio saves her from her Laser-Guided Karma and they all have to give up their powers together. Once they get them back, Onpu fully joins the group.
The finale of Sharp introduces the ultimate Big Bad of the series as one of these, effectively filling the role once more. Queen Majo Tourbillon once was a kind witch who fell in love with a human and had a family with him, but once she outlived her whole human family she lost it...

Marisa Kirisame from Touhou Project. She purposely dresses as a stereotypical witch, lives by herself in the Forest of Magic, is estranged from her father (according to the manual), and her first appearance in the series was as The Dragon to a Big Bad. Defeat Means Friendship, and she subsequently becomes the series' Deuteragonist. So where's the twist? It's her personality; Marisa is one of the most outgoing characters in the series... even if it's just to steal from people.
Mokou is an odd example in that she has all the earmarks of this trope, but her image is overshadowed by her on-off rivalry with Kaguya and her interaction with Keine. And she wears suspenders and red poofy pants.

Princess: The Hopeful has the Twilight Princesses, three factions specifically based on the Dark Magical Girl archetype (in contrast with the Radiant Princesses, who represent the traditional Magical Girls).
Princesses of Tears are those who decided that fighting the All-Consuming Darkness was a Hopeless War, and that protecting their loved ones was far more important. To that end, they've thrown their lot in with Alhambra, a totalitarian city-state within the Dark World ruled by the Queen of Tears. In exchange for their families and lovers being provided with a safe haven, Princesses of Tears now work to steal light and emotion from the mortal world to keep Alhambra functioning.
Princesses of Storms allowed their hate of the Darkness to dominate their lives, becoming obsessed with destroying it wherever it can be found. They no longer have patience for the A Lighter Shade of Black morality that typifies the New World of Darkness, and the most far-gone among them don't even care about collateral damage or civilian casualties anymore.
Princesses of Mirrors are self-absorbed glory hounds and attention-seekers, convinced that they can do no wrong and that their powers make them better than everyone else. Furthermore, thanks to the influence of the Specchio invocation (which eventually causes madness) and the Queen of Mirrors, every Princess of Mirrors is utterly convinced that they are The Chosen One destined to defeat the All-Consuming Darkness and restore the Old Kingdom; a delusion that tends to end badly for everyone involved considering what the setting is really like.

Reign of the Seven Spellblades: Ursule Valois, a girl who can walk on air, espouses ideals running directly counter to the nature of the Sword Roses (counting Sixth Ranger Yuri Leik) as a collaborative group of equal friends, insisting that the only purpose for other living things is as a tool for one's own use—which Oliver and Nanao realize is just a thinly veiled attempt to rationalize away the abusive Training from Hell she suffered at the hands of her Gruesome Grandparent. She ultimately is forced to stop rationalizing it and accept that people other than herself have merit, courtesy of all that abuse proving pointless in the face of Team Horn's fluid teamwork.

Sonic and the Black Knight features Merlina, daughter of Merlin of Arthurian Legend, and with an appearance befitting a Magical Girl. Though at first she seems like a supportive quest giver who brings Sonic into this storybook world to be its savior, the first hint at this aspect of her character is her lamenting a flower wilting away, wondering why it bothered to bloom if it knew its fate. Eventually, it's revealed she saw into the future and knows how this story ends, so she draws upon the powers of the underworld to make the kingdom eternal. Sonic is horrified by the prospect of a world that never changes, and thus transforms to stop her. In the end, Sonic is the one who plays the part of the straight Magical Girl, lending a supportive hand and flower while telling her every world has its end, so we should live life to the fullest in the time we have.

Also from My-HiME is Nao Yuuki, who travels the path she took because her father was killed and her mother was seriously injured by robbers. Unlike Mikoto, she doesn't get converted over as easily. Making Nao even more tragic, she was beginning to really warm to the group before Natsuki was tricked into attacking her. It's hard not to feel sorry for her when she leaves, screaming revenge and clutching what's left of her right eye...

Jubei-chan: Freesia Yagyu is Jiyu's rival seeking to take the Lovely Eyepatch for herself, manipulating Jiyu's father against her in the process. It turns out she was always meant to inherit the Eyepatch from her father, but he mistook her for dead after she and her mother fell through the ice during one of his battles. Freesia remained frozen for centuries, only thawing out when the glacier she was frozen in melted due to global warming. She was then taken in by animals who raised her. Freesia broke emotionally when she learned another girl had inherited her father's legacy and swore vengeance, carving her own Eyepatch to channel her family's martial art powers. She is gradually thawed by the wacky cast befriending her and becomes conflicted about her vengeance, finally turning to the side of good after a Rousing Speech from Jiyu and an Enemy Mine making her and Jiyu team up.

StrikerS Sound Stage X gives us another Dark Magical Girl, although her identity is a major spoiler: Runessa Magnus, the former Child Soldier from a Crapsack World, who fell under the influence of an interdimensional terrorist, seeing him as her father figure and carrying out his agenda even after his death. To this end, she becomes Teana's partner, allowing her to manipulate the investigation of her own crimes, but is eventually discovered and apprehended by Tea. Notably, Surprisingly Realistic Outcome occurs in this case, and Runessa doesn't get a "Get Out of Jail Free" Card like the other examples but keeps serving her time in later installments—although Teana regularly visits her in prison, presumably, in an attempt to rehabilitate her.

My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic:
A young (if immortal) winged unicorn with magical powers, Princess Luna is the herald of Night, and is therefore forever alone (because ponies are diurnal). Due to a combination of some unknown magical force and her own loneliness and jealousy, she turns to evil, gets a Plot-Relevant Age-Up and green eyes, dons a gothy, slightly bondagey outfit, and is promptly sealed away for a thousand years. When she escapes, she uses her powers to fight the even younger Magical Filly sent unwittingly to redeem her, who defeats her with The Power of Friendship and reunites her with her sister.
My Little Pony: The Movie (2017): Tempest Shadow is yet another Shadow Archetype Foil to Twilight Sparkle. She is a dark coated, cynical unicorn with a broken horn, who believes that to survive in a harsh world, she has to be a harsh pony as well. Her allies are even harsher and unreliable.

Puella Magi Oriko Magica: Oriko Mikuni had her mother die, her father framed for criminal actions and then commit suicide, and was abandoned by the rest of her extended family. Her classmates ostracized her, telling her she should drop out of school out of shame. She was left completely alone, unable to even heat her house, when she was visited by Kyubey and wished to know the meaning of her life. Unfortunately, her wish led her to see Krimhield Gretchen, giving her the purpose of killing Madoka to prevent an Apocalypse Now. Her only friend and Love Interest is the equally disturbed Serial Killer Kirika Kure, who was similarly ostracized after being framed for criminal actions and wished to become anything Oriko needed after Oriko showed her the smallest bit of kindness.

She has proven to be much, much stronger than the other Nanas, able to hypnotize people easily, teleport, fly with ease, fire energy blasts, and be a badaxe. In the end, she just needed a hug.

Kill la Kill:
Played with Ryuko Matoi in Kill la Kill. She's an Anti-Hero protagonist rather than an Anti-Villain and The Rival, but she has the Dark and Troubled Past of a typical DMG, as her father had essentially abandoned her, and that's not even going into what he and her mother did. Through her interactions with Mako (who can be considered the stereotypical Magical Girl in this example) and her fight with Satsuki following her Face–Heel Turn, Ryuko becomes more heroic and decides to fight for the greater good.
Subverted with Satsuki Kiryuin, Ryuko Matoi's rival and sister. Satsuki initially appears to be a cold, aloof Alpha Bitch under her deeply abusive mother's thumb. She dons a Kamui of the same power as Ryuko's and stands between Ryuko learning what happened to her father. However, Satsuki always intended to rebel against her mother and the genuine devotion and friendship she shares with her Elite Four keep her from going down a tragic path.

Chibiusa achieved Dark Magical Girl status temporarily in "Sailor Moon R", as she is brainwashed by Wiseman, who corrupts her with dark magic and cruel words, making her believe that she is responsible for her grim future and that no one loves her. As a result, she becomes Black Lady, an older version of herself, with longer hair and a very revealing outfit, and becomes a servant of Wiseman due to her bitterness and pain upon the Dark and Troubled Past that she genuinely believes she had. In the manga and in Sailor Moon Crystal, she even brainwashes and seduces her father, though. in the anime, she actively hates both parents and tries to kill them in revenge (Usagi does have a vision of Black Lady and Tuxedo Kamen kissing, but it's a part of Wiseman's attempted brainwashing of her. Which doesn't work, by the way.) She returns to her younger and happier original self after a while, however: either by witnessing Pluto's Heroic Sacrifice (manga and Crystal) or after a pep talk from her parents (first anime).

Izayoi Aki from Yu-Gi-Oh! 5Ds when she first appeared, having been alienated from other people due to her fearsome Psychic Powers. When Yusei met her, she was unstable and had developed a destructive Split Personality (the Black Rose Witch) out of anger and guilt, and was hostile towards him for bearing the mark she believed was responsible for her suffering (actually the sign she was a chosen one). As with most examples of this trope, she joined the heroes after being defeated by the main character - in this case, it took two Duels and some help from her parents, who truly regretted neglecting her, for Yusei to get through to her. However, after the Dark Signers were defeated, she took the opportunity to live a normal life, without causing pain to others, something that she couldn't do before.

Once Upon a Time:
Regina can be read like this, although she's not a "young girl" anymore. She's definitely suffered from an abusive mother and ineffectual and later dead (by her own hand) father. And with what she sees as Snow's betrayal, she lost both this blossoming friendship and her One True Love. Many of her major interactions after that — at least, those not focused on revenge — can be read as her clinging too tightly to everyone who could prevent her from being alone. It even looks like she might eventually be redeemed by befriending The Chosen One.
Zelena, also known as The Wicked Witch of the West, is a straighter example of this. She's so jealous of the life given to her sister Regina by her mother that she turns into a literal Green-Eyed Monster. Ironically, the Magical Girl who she fights is her sister Regina, post Heel–Face Turn.
Emma becomes this during her stint as The Dark One.
In season seven, the second Alice can be read like this, especially given she's an Apocalypse Maiden twice over. Also, her lover Robin (Robin Hood and Zelena's daughter) breifly becomes this during a flashback episode before getting over herself.

Pretty Cure has used this trope multiple times. Futari wa Pretty Cure Splash★Star gives us the Kiryuu sisters, Michiru and Kaoru, Fresh Pretty Cure! has Setsuna Higashi, alias Eas (until she became Cure Passion), HeartCatch Pretty Cure! features the aptly-named Dark Pretty Cure, Suite Pretty Cure ♪ has Ellen Kurokawa aka Siren (until she became Cure Beat), Go! Princess Pretty Cure has Twilight AKA Towa Akagi/Cure Scarlet, and HuGtto! Pretty Cure has Ruru Amour later Cure Amour.
In HeartCatch, Yuri Tsukikage/Cure Moonlight also has some traces of this despite being on the side of good. Though quiet, mature and intellectual, she harbours a deep sadness within her heart, unable to forgive herself for her past failures that got her Brought Down to Normal and killed her companion. Eventually, she heals... and then becomes Cure Moonlight again. Incidentally, Dark Pretty Cure from the same series actually doesn't get redeemed, and is in fact Killed Off for Real. Though in a heartbreaking manner.
One of the Pretty Cure movies had the Dark Precure 5, who were created by the villains to defeat the Precure 5 with. The first of these was Dark Dream, and her efforts paved the way for the rest to be made. All of them die except for her, and even then it was because Cure Dream spared her. Dark Dream did not know how to truly smile and Cure Dream pitied her for it. Eventually, Cure dream ended up at the mercy of the villains and was about to be killed. Dark Dream intercepted the attack and died as a result, smiling peacefully as she faded away in Cure Dream's arms.
In Doki Doki! PreCure, Makoto Kenzaki/Cure Sword is a near-expy of the aforementioned Yuri. There is also King Jikochu's daughter, Regina, though she doesn't need to transform to use her dark powers.

When Cutey Honey was remade into a Lighter and Softer, Magical Girl-esque series in 1998 (right after the end of the first Sailor Moon anime), Honey "Cutey Honey" Kisaragi got a counterpart that fitted pretty well in this trope: Seira Hazuki, a cool-headed schoolgirl who can transform into Misty Honey, a dark-haired Lady of War with a purple outfit and an antagonistic behavior. Since Honey is also a Robot Girl in this continuity, Seira/Misty is also one of these here, taken in by the villains when Dr. Kisaragi went the Defector from Decadence way.

My Little Pony: The Movie (2017): Tempest Shadow is yet another Shadow Archetype Foil to Twilight Sparkle. She is a dark coated, cynical unicorn with a broken horn, who believes that to survive in a harsh world, she has to be a harsh pony as well. Her allies are even harsher and unreliable.

Sailor Moon:
Hotaru Tomoe (Sailor Saturn) is subverted. At first, the Outer Soldiers treat her as a Dark Magical Girl because they believe her awakening as Sailor Saturn would bring about The End of the World as We Know It. This turns out to be somewhat true; though Saturn does have the power to initiate an apocalypse, she would never do so unless ordered to by her Queen; however, in the present day her reincarnation is possessed by The Dragon, whose goal is The End of the World as We Know It. The protagonists are understandably confused about Hotaru's motivations for much of the season. Throughout that time she was a friend of Chibiusa, a.k.a Sailor Chibimoon.
Chibiusa achieved Dark Magical Girl status temporarily in "Sailor Moon R", as she is brainwashed by Wiseman, who corrupts her with dark magic and cruel words, making her believe that she is responsible for her grim future and that no one loves her. As a result, she becomes Black Lady, an older version of herself, with longer hair and a very revealing outfit, and becomes a servant of Wiseman due to her bitterness and pain upon the Dark and Troubled Past that she genuinely believes she had. In the manga and in Sailor Moon Crystal, she even brainwashes and seduces her father, though. in the anime, she actively hates both parents and tries to kill them in revenge (Usagi does have a vision of Black Lady and Tuxedo Kamen kissing, but it's a part of Wiseman's attempted brainwashing of her. Which doesn't work, by the way.) She returns to her younger and happier original self after a while, however: either by witnessing Pluto's Heroic Sacrifice (manga and Crystal) or after a pep talk from her parents (first anime).
The manga version of Sailor Galaxia is what happens when a Dark Magical Girl grows up and comes into full power before meeting her good counterpart. As one can guess, her mental state is not pretty.

Princess Belladonna, in the seventh Dark Parables installment, is very much one of these. She was born with Enemy to All Living Things powers, meaning that if she so much as scratches someone with her fingernails, they will sicken and die. She can't shut it off, either. Her mother died when she was little; her father locked her in a tower to protect everyone from her deadly magic; and the only person she believes truly loves her is her elder half-sister Rapunzel, who has her own magic which renders her immune to Bella's power. But Rapunzel is engaged to be married, and Bella is terrified that this means her sister is going to leave her all alone. A vicious guardian helps her craft a Hypno Trinket that will solve this problem... and create hundreds more. But she's not a bad person at all - just a child who has been through entirely too much, and saddled with powers that scare people.

In the Mechagical Girl Lisa ANT, the character Pink Flash is a inversion: she is a mercenary who willfully works for evil alien invaders (as opposed to Lisa, who works for other evil alien invaders because she's too gullible), but she is anything but dark.
