Generic Cuteness is taken for granted. You have all manner of strange things depicted as cute. But way past the vampire girl, you have the deliberately over-the-top depictions, where Sickeningly Sweet saccharine cuteness is depicted with wild, graphic violence. For obvious reasons, these situations are more common in shows dabbling in satire. See also: Cute and Psycho, Enfant Terrible, Killer Rabbit, Girl with Psycho Weapon, Cute Monster Girl, Ultra Super Death Gorefest Chainsawer 3000, Art-Style Dissonance. Can be a pretty deep well of Nightmare Fuel. Based on the same principle as Fan Disservice and Mood Dissonance. Compare with Kawaisa. Not to be confused with Ugly Cute or finding Joseph Merrick intensely lovable (see What Measure Is a Non-Cute?). |

Puella Magi Madoka Magica. At first the show lets you believe that it's a typical Magical Girl Warrior show with a Puni Plush design. Then episode three hits, where Cool Big Sis Mami gets her head chomped off by a candy-themed monster inside its Level Ate lair. The same scene in the manga version is even worse. | |

The main School Days series was already infamous for its bloody finale... And then comes the Magical Heart Kokoro-chan OVA, with the eponymous young lady helping pilot a giant Hello Kitty, chainsaw-wielding Combining Mecha, ripping apart the enemy and drowning the city in a sea of blood.

I Hate Fairyland is a series in which an Ax-Crazy woman trapped in the body of a child in a Sugar Bowl world brutally destroys everything in her path in her quest to find the key that will get her back home. The protagonist herself counts in a way, as she looks like a little girl, but has a maniacal and ragged air to her. | |

When Diamond comes around... Either hide, run, or be very prepared to hear an adorable girl/young woman babble on happily about how best to kill a man if you want the most artistic blood splatters. Also be prepared to see her stab her own hand through her upper arm to make blood whips, explode, giggle as she shoves her hand through a man's chest, and a myriad of other things. If you still haven't run away, she'll treat you to seeing her with horns, a tail, bat wings, and maybe a little illusion of a nice little battle among Eldritch Abominations that she recently participated in. | |

Spooky's Jump Scare Mansion uses this as a large part of its premise. At first the game seems cute, until you encounter the legitimately creepy monsters. Even the cute cardboard cutouts can get pretty terrifying. Spooky herself provides a lot of this. The mini games all star her, and also feature bloody murder. It's revealed that the entire reason for her gathering a house full of monsters is so she can raise an army of ghosts from the people who died in it. Why? Because she hates it when people call her cute, of course. | |

Charby the Vampirate is described as an ultra-violent Saturday morning cartoon, with adorable characters who will occasionally eviscerate or suffocate their many victims, brutally, with no Gory Discretion Shot. The combo is especially obvious with Mye, the zombie girl who smells sweet despite 315 years of decay, plus the unhealed slit in her chest where she got a sweet heart transplant. Her Evil Eyes are bubblegum pink. Mye isn't decaying,(she is a traditional zombie, not a Hollywood/Romero zombie)the sweet smell is candle wax and gummy bears, two things she spends a lot of time with. And her brother's eyes are pink, too! |

Homestuck starts off simply being about a kid who is celebrating his thirteenth birthday by playing a new game. Then the game turns out to cause The End of the World as We Know It and summon monsters wearing jester hats to torment the protagonist, and it only gets worse from there on out. It becomes more clear later on, with an army of anthropomorphic chess pieces being slaughtered by Jack Noir, a children's show's characters turning out to be representations of "Horrorterrors" and comic relief character Gamzee going Ax-Crazy and deciding he needs to kill all his friends. The various trolls all tend to qualify as this. Mindfang's diaries suggest that it is not only normal, but expected and encouraged of trolls of Gamzee's rank; in troll society, such traits are considered the mark of strong leadership skills. It's so prevalent that the main 12 trolls outright decide to call themselves "Team Adorabloodthirsty". The most spectacular example among them is Nepeta Leijon, who is a Moe Cat Girl with a fondness for shipping and cutesy roleplaying... and who kills wild animals for food with her Wolverine Claws. Caliborn. One of the first things we see him do after his proper reveal is gnaw off his own leg, leaving him spattered with his own blood. As for personality, he's a sociopathic Jerkass who seems to find the sight of his sister's friends dying/being knocked out hilarious. And he likes firing rounds into people until they look like a bloody mess. All that being said and done, he still has large, rather adorable eyes with doll-like eyelashes, and as a cherub, he's the pinnacle of Ugly Cute. |

The Order of the Stick: The stick figure art makes everything look much cuter than it would in a more realistic style. And yet you still get characters like Xykon and Belkar and quite a bit of violence. In particular, Tsukiko sleeps with an adorable Xykon plushie, and Belkar is a fuzzy-footed halfling of chibi proportions who gleefully stabs everyone who crosses him or has something he wants. Then you get the Implosion spell shown in its full gory glory. Or Familicide: just... everything about it as the implications just snowball. | |

Robbie the Rabbit, the mascot of the Silent Hill Amusement Park is a pink bunny wearing a blue overall whose most prominent feature is the blood-stained mess on his mouth and clothes. Heather from the third game says that "it is more creepy than it is cute". Coming from a girl who has deadpan snarked her way through the eponymous town, without batting an eye to the overall gory insanity around her, this says a lot. | |

Sonichu unintentionally falls into this. It looks a lot like something your seven year old child would draw, with characters that are a combination of Sonic The Hedgehog and Pokémon, an Author Avatar that is the mayor of the town, and cartoony villains. However, it features graphic sex scenes and true to this trope, scenes where a bunch of Internet trolls are tortured to death, including one getting drilled in the groin by a little girl. | |

Everything is Fine's story revolves around a bunch of characters with cute big cat-heads living in a pastel-colored suburbia. But every now and again, the comic shifts to show the reader intensely creepy moments, like the cut to Winston's dead, rotting corpse in episode 1. | |

Ghost Eyes has rather simple and cute character designs and the horror storyline goes side by side with a very Slice of Life -esque story of gay teenager boys developing crushes on one another much to their dismay. Hilarity Ensues. It would be a cutesy Coming-Out Story if said boys weren't all mentally disturbed in one way or another and if one of them in particular wasn't being followed around by a sadistic being who calls himself a "Grey Man". | |

Vampire: The Masquerade's vampires keep the looks (and age) they had at a moment of their death and vampiric transformation. So, it's possible to meet (or play as) a hundreds of years old undead monster, who looks like an angel-faced 10 years old. In the old (and VERY disturbing) Montreal sourcebook (made by White Wolf's "Black Dog" imprint, which in itself should be considered a warning), not only is there an angel-faced 10-year-old vampire — who's her pack's warrior — but the local vamps' unofficial mascot is a limbless dwarf Samedi (vampires who look like rotting corpses) who they use in a variety of gory "games", like "bob the apple" but with humans stuck up to their necks in a flour silo. No points for guessing the place is a Sabbat stronghold. |

The Unspeakable Vault (of Doom) is a Lighter and Softer look at the Cthulhu Mythos—for instance, its cartoonishly-drawn "Cthulhoo" says "yum yum" every time he eats an unfortunate cultist. But it's still the Cthulhu Mythos, and the gore factor actually goes up compared to Lovecraft's work. It'd be Mood Whiplash if the death and dismemberment weren't so heavily integrated into the comic alongside the silliness. | |

The Elder Scrolls has Namira, the Daedric Prince of the Ancient Darkness, associated with all things revolting, decay, disfiguring diseases, and cannibalism. She usually associated with things most would consider disgusting or repulsive, such as slugs, insects, or disfiguring diseases. In fact she only allows those considered ugly to summon her, and she hates attractive people. | |

Invader Zim. It has quirky humor, a more-or-less chibi art style (albeit an oddly angular one), and a wacky robot sidekick who frequently wears an adorable dog costume... and it's still one of the darkest shows to grace Nickelodeon, featuring Black Comedy, people turning inside out, and an entire episode about Organ Theft. There's even an episode where Zim tries to exploit this by turning a hamster into a giant monster, the idea being that the hamster Kaiju would be too cute for anyone to bring themself to stop it. | |

Shizuku from Hunter × Hunter embodies this trope, being essentially a childish collection of moe tropes who happens to be a member of the most bloodthirsty group of criminals on the plannet. Her first appearance has her acting completely moe and scatterbrained, losing a round of arm wrestling to Gon because she forgot that she's left handed. Her second appearance has her smashing two named characters' heads into paste with a completely stoic expression. |

South Park gets a lot of mileage out of clashing the cutesy, colorful, and simplistic animation that looks like it's for and by pre-schoolers with the extreme violence, vulgar dialogue, and generally disgusting things that actually happen. In this instance, the art style helps the show get away with a lot more than if it was more realistic looking. The Woodland Critters are seemingly adorable and friendly, but are really insane, violent satanists who have blood orgies and want to bring about the Antichrist. |

Dahlia Hawthorne in Phoenix Wright: Trials and Tribulations is extremely cute and beautiful, even with pure white butterflies flitting about her. However, at the end of the first trial, after she's been proven guilty of murder, she actually incinerates her butterflies with pure rage. | |

Elfen Lied. The Diclonii are, to a one, completely adorable girls with a pair of small horns on their head that make them look something like catgirls. Unfortunately, they are, with only a single exception, also heartless, murderous, superpowered psychopaths who can (and frequently do) forcibly and violently separate anyone nearby from their limbs and/or head with their telekinetic vectors. | |

Gears of War (a game widely known for its Gorn) has the Big Heads mutator, which gives everyone a near-Super-Deformed appearance plus a higher pitched voice. | |

The Woodland Critters are seemingly adorable and friendly, but are really insane, violent satanists who have blood orgies and want to bring about the Antichrist. | |

PETA's Cooking Mama ripoff Cooking Mama: Mama Kills Animals. The cute jingly music doesn't make it any less hilariously Narmful. Same goes for their Super Mario Bros. Kentucky Fried Cruelty game. For that matter, probably anything they market to children. And now PETA is three-for-three with Pokémon Black and Blue. And then Nintendo told them to cut that shit out. |

Kingdom of Loathing's Iiti Kitty, a mummified Hello Kitty. In the Kingdom of Loathing universe, seals aren't adorable fuzzy flopping creatures as in real life; they're hideous, shambling, bloodsucking monstrosities that happen to look like adorable fuzzy flopping creatures, one of which looks more like a mutated leech than any land mammal. That said, one familiar you can acquire as a Seal Clubber is an Adorable Seal Larva, which intersperses descriptions of it sucking the blood from your opponent and bursting into an enemy's corpse so it can regurgitate a healing fluid into your body with gushing about how adorable the thing is. |

Nana's Everyday Life, has the art style of a manga for little children; plays the mental, emotional, physical and sexual abuse of an underaged girl for laughs. Very dark laughs. Until it stops being funny. | |

The Sock Series artstyle is quite at odds with the apocalyptic scenario and carnage, which is to be expected when the main antagonist is a satanic hamster. | |

Messiah has the contrast between Bob, a sweet, chubby cherub who looks like a winged baby in a diaper, and the violence and brutality throughout the game (a lot of it inflicted by Bob himself.) | |
