A genre of adolescent male Wish-Fulfillment. The hero is usually a geeky loser, terribly unlucky at love. He is either unable to get a date at all, or has had his sensitive poet's heart broken by a cruel bitch who was only toying with his affections, forcing him to withdraw from all feminine companionship. Exactly how strongly this is exaggerated depends on the writers. However, because he is a genuinely good and kind person, fate smiles upon him — the perfect girl for him enters his life. She is beautiful, kind, domestic, and utterly and eternally devoted to him. However, she's often not exactly human by most definitions — she is a goddess, demon, vampire, witch, extraterrestrial, angel, robot, ghost, virtual being born of an advanced computer program, or under a spell/curse, or an immortal sorceress, or some combination of any or all of the above. Sometimes the "magic" is purely metaphorical, although this is usually used in a critical way implying she's too good to be true. But she is good — to him and for him — and if the plot would just leave them alone they'd be very happy together. But no relationship is ever perfect, and a pairing of dork and demigoddess is inevitably going to go awry in the most embarrassing way possible. Despite this and his initial misgivings, however, true love blossoms for the once-hapless hero — largely because his Magical Girlfriend is determined that it should. Entries in this genre often come packed with generous quantities of Fanservice, but this is by no means mandatory. Sometimes it overlaps with Unwanted Harem, but requires more Willing Suspension of Disbelief, since her popularity is obvious. In dramatic examples, Magical Girlfriends are ironic blessings. No matter how much she insists, she will tend to give the guy an inferiority complex about himself and being unworthy. Conversely, Magical Girlfriends often feel they cause more problems than they solve, and the guy is just putting up with them due to niceness. Of course, her family almost always gets involved; and rest assured they will get in the way as much as possible. In addition, well meaning, but bumbling Magical Girlfriends also exist as a subgenre, and their magic just complicates things further. If the relationship actually works, it may become an Interspecies Romance (assuming she does not become fully human, which sometimes happens). Magical Girlfriend series show up in shÅ�nen, but seem to skyrocket in popularity within the seinen crowd, and there are also a couple of Shōjo series. As the Films — Live Action folder below will attest, it's had peaks and valleys of popularity in the West as well, particularly in The '80s. Just as the Magical Girls genre was inspired by Bewitched, it seems likely that both that show and I Dream of Jeannie are somewhere in the DNA of the Magical Girlfriend. Sub-Trope of Muggle–Mage Romance. The Magical Girlfriend might be a Magical Girl, but the tropes shouldn't be confused. Compare and contrast with Manic Pixie Dream Girl. See Well, Excuse Me, Princess! for when the Magical Girlfriend wakes up to how much of a geeky loser her love interest is and begins calling him on it, and Action Girlfriend if she's more action-oriented than magical. May overlap with Boy Meets Ghoul. See also Divine Date. If you fancy writing one of your own, here's a guide to help you out. Examples |

Scooby-Doo and the Alien Invaders. The normally carefree Shaggy and Scooby fall for a hippie nature photographer named Crystal and her Golden Retriever Amber. Even a whole music video in the movie is Shaggy fantasizing about their future relationship. As it turns out, Crystal and her dog are alien agents sent to investigate the S.A.L.F dishes. Their idea of an Earth appearance came from TV signals picked up from an experiment in the 70's. | |

Played in a very unusual way in Midori Days: The unlucky guy is a tough fighter-type whose reputation frightens away girls, and the girlfriend is an ordinary girl who's always wanted him and got her wish granted through "magical" means... by somehow literally becoming his right hand.

A.I. Love You, the first manga from Ken Akamatsu (the creator of Love Hina and Negima! Magister Negi Magi), was a textbook example of this, with a lightning strike bringing a lonely geek's homebrew AI to life. The early chapters heavily played on the Wish-Fulfillment, but later ones increasingly subvert it. | |

In StarCraft, you have Raynor and Kerrigan. Raynor is more of a Badass Normal than a loser (and falls in love with Kerrigan while she's still human), but Kerrigan fits the bill, especially after the MacGuffin takes away her Alpha Bitch personality she had post-infestation. At the very end of Legacy of the Void, Kerrigan transforms into a Xel'naga, taking on a straight-up angelic appearance. | |

There is a honest to goodness college clique full of "unlucky every girls" blessed with the trope's genderflipped version in Girls Next Door called Wibsy (Weirdo Boyfriend and Supernatural Stalker Clubnote The boyfriends/stalkers range from the fairly normal deformed psycho Mad Artist to ghosts, vampires (although they have their own clique), fae, a magical prince from a fairytale kingdom… and a river spirit/eastern dragon.) there is even mention of this trope in the artist comment when they debut and that the Distaff Counterpart boys club historically resides in Japan. Oh... and both main characters are members (one has the Mad Artist the other The Fair Folk as unwanted boyfriend / Stalker with a Crush). In a broader sense it's set in a 'verse, where (according to mother series Roommates) the magical people actively engage in Interspecies Romance because all of them are pretty much related, making both magical girlfriends and boyfriend extremely common. For comedy and tragedy. | |

Gender-flipped and subverted in Brigadoon: Marin and Melan. Marin is a Happily Adopted Heartwarming Orphan who falls in massive trouble when bionic machines called Monomakia fall from the sky reflecting another world and attack her for unknown reasons. Enter Melan Blue, a Gunswordsman monomakia that arrives to act as her protector. Subverted as Marin is only 13 years old and Melan Blue is dedicated to his duty to protect Marin, the duo fall slowly for each other throughout the course of the series. | |

Sluggy Freelance, in which Oasis (an ultracompetent gymnastic killer who is variously suspected of being an android or some other non-human entity) is the very much unwanted Magical Girlfriend of Torg, who is a loser in most respects. Even worse, Torg already has a real (and reciprocated) love interest who has little to no combat training. Oasis has certain aspects of The Woobie as well (she doesn't know what makes her so hard to kill). | |

After being revised to revel in its anime roots, Teenagers from Outer Space added Magical Girl as a special power available to characters. It gives the player the ability to grant Three Wishes a day, which of course tend to go hilariously awry. The game designers also pointed out the genre was probably inspired by I Dream of Jeannie. | |

Lúthien in The Silmarillion. It's kind of an Unbuilt Trope here though. Beren, while not exactly geeky, is smarter than he is athletic: and spends a good chunk of the story in prison. Lúthien's mother is a Physical Goddess who married an elf: although she isn't a demigoddess per se, she does have extremely strong magical powers. Strong enough to put the God of Evil to sleep. The point is that she is so out of poor Beren's league it's not even funny. Unlike the typical hero in this type of story though, Beren doesn't spend much time angsting over why she chose him: and calls her dad out for not respecting said choice. J. R. R. Tolkien put the name "Beren" on his gravestone, and the name "Lúthien" on his wife's. Though one would hardly say he was the creator of the trope. In all likelihood this one is Older Than Dirt. | |

Rosario + Vampire: Ordinary High-School Student Tsukune gets sent to a Monster School. There he meets cute vampire girl Moka and she falls in love with him since he was the first person she sucked blood from… and continues to do so, much to his chagrin. While it's a totally straight example at first, it shifts away from the norm for this trope about halfway through Part I of the manga, as Tsukune starts his progression from average dork to Bishōnen badass. | |

Ah! My Goddess: awkward, mistreated Keiichi Morisato and his Magical Girlfriend – pure-hearted wish-granting goddess Belldandy, who fit every basic aspect of the Trope to a "T". The passion of their relationship, the depth of their characters (and the characters around them), and the emphasis on drama and comedy depends on the incarnation – over the course of the 25½-year run of the original manga (1988-2014), there was a 5-episode OVA (1993-6), a theatrical movie, a two-season TV series (2004-2006) plus a few more Japan-only OVAs to go with it. Skuld starts becoming one to Sentaro, and being with him makes her considerably more familiar with wielding her powers. She's the one trying to court him, though. |

Tenchi from Tenchi Muyo! definitely fits the whole Unlucky Everydude trope. The main differences are (a) He gets A Whole Bunch Of Magical Girlfriends, (b) He's too much of a Nice Guy to head to marrying all of them with any kind of speed, and (c) the girlfriends are actual people with all the complications thereof. The Manic Pixie Dream Girl is a Space Pirate with a price on her head several dozen orders of magnitude greater than Earth's combined GNP. As for the princesses, one's a bossy, prudishly-repressed proto-dominatrix and the other's a little girl who happens to be the avatar of one of the three goddesses who created the universe, and they're both half-sisters of his grandfather. The cute lil' Mad Scientist is really 20,000 years old and the mother of the Space Pirate, but she wants him anyway, and she's another of the three goddesses who created the universe. Word of God says that the third goddess wants in as well. Then there's the two Galaxy Police Detectives. | |

Date A Live is about Shidou, an Ordinary High-School Student, who gets volunteered by a powerful organisation to romance the immensely powerful and unpredictable Spirits because of his unexplained ability to "seal" their powers by kissing them. The whole point is to remove the "Magical" part of this trope so they aren't a threat anymore, though even when sealed they can still manifest many of their abilities so it's less Brought Down to Normal and more being Nerfed. As revealed in the light novels, one such girlfriend is the main villain and the reason for the entire story. Mio, the very first Spirit, fell in love with Shinji, Shidou's past self. However, he was killed and this drove Mio to remake him as Shidou and create the other Spirits as a means of gradually giving him her power, so that he would be as immortal as her. | |

Let the Right One In - vampire. A very dark example in the Foreign Remake Let Me In. Owen, a shy and nice boy who is merely mistreated or neglected by those around him, meets Abby, the vampire girl next door. However, Abby kills several completely innocent people during the plot, and Owen goes through some traumatic experiences. Towards the end of the film, however, he leaves town to start a new life with her, either as her caretaker or she turns him into a vampire. | |

The Dresden Files is all over the place with this one. Harry himself is a magical boyfriend to Susan. After being vampirified, Susan is to Harry, too. Elain would be, but she and Harry were fairly comparable in magical prowess, if in different specializations. Molly Carpenter to her boyfriend, before she drilled psychic holes in his head. Awkward. By salic law, Charity Carpenter. But she never told her husband. Michael Carpenter could count as a magical husband to Charity, but what he does isn't strictly magic. Thomas Raith is this to Justine. House Raith of the White Court could be this more generally, but most don't care about humans in the slightest. When Harry is asked if they're together and if he's ever been with her, he points out that he's still breath. A lot of the Fey have tried to be this to Harry for various reasons. Wizards in general have these, often of comparable power to them, because apparently it sucks to have a mortal spouse when you're semi-immortal. |

The World God Only Knows has fun parodying this trope. Elsie is a cute demon girl who was sent to the human world to have the otaku gamer Keima help her capture evil spirits that hide inside girls' hearts by making them fall in love with him. However, Elsie moves in with Keima by pretending to be his illegitimate half-sister and her domestic skills such as cooking aren't very good by human standards. Add to this that Keima was perfectly content with his obsessed gamer life and only agrees to cooperate because he will have his head cut off otherwise. After playing around with the trope a little, it gets subverted because Keima and Elsie are Like Brother and Sister more than anything and at the end, Elsie becomes Keima's real full sister through a Cosmic Retcon. | |

The witch Medea from Classical Mythology, who betrayed her kingdom and killed her brother out of devotion to Jason and then became his bodyguard and hitman. After hooking up with her, Jason apparently stood back and let her handle all the monsters, giant living statues, and enemy kings with her magic. And then he dumped her for a normal, beautiful princess and was surprised when she wouldn't stand for that... | |

Nyaruko: Crawling with Love! parodies the concept, since the girlfriend is no other than Nyarlathotep the Crawling Chaos of the Cthulhu Mythos, and the male lead is a Lovecraft fan who knows exactly what that means (and thus is reluctant to trust her). The "dream girlfriend" part is open to interpretation, since she's a Manic Pixie Dream Girl and Lovable Sex Maniac on top of being a Cosmic Horror, all of which grates on the male lead's sanity (though he does gradually warm up to her). | |

Because he's the only person who didn't treat her like a monster or a sex object. Fuchsia resolves the problem by ditching Hell. | |

This actually happens to Nodwick in a series of strips that parody the Vault of the Drow module. Nodwick and party meets a succubus who is attracted to people with big noses for some reason. Sadly for Nodwick, this doesn't work out; she leaves him when she finds out he's a henchman. (Yes, it seems dating a henchman can even be bad for a demon's reputation.) | |

Mannequin plays this straight. It has a beautiful Egyptian princess who wants "more than this" life several thousand years ago. The gods agree and she disappears. We next see her as a mannequin who apparently can only appear and act real for one person — the protagonist. In Mannequin 2: On the Move, the heroine is a peasant girl who was turned into a wooden icon by an evil sorcerer for 1000 years (or until she finds true love in a foreign land). A thousand years later, she is awakened by the hero, and the two have to deal with the sorcerer's descendant. | |

"Pleasure GELF" (Genetically Engineered Life Form) in Red Dwarf that telepathically takes the form of the perfect mate of whoever sees it. Kryten had a female android of an advanced model, Rimmer had a female hologram that was just as nerdy and unsuccessful, Lister had a female Scouser who had more in common with his female self than his canon love interest, Kochanski, and the Cat had… himself. In the end, she reveals herself to be a giant green blob of snot. Kryten takes her out to dinner, dancing and a movie, then loses her to her husband, another green blob of snot. And the whole thing is played as a homage to Casablanca. | |

Subverted in Weird Science (film and series), in which two teenage geeks create their very own Magical Girlfriend, Lisa, a virtual-reality-based supermodel-type who solves all their problems for them, often with unintended results or methods, then helpfully goes away. Despite their initial intentions for creating her, neither geek seems to have any real romantic relationship with Lisa — beyond the requisite ogling — so her "Girlfriend" status is questionable; they treat her more like their Cool Big Sis. | |

The titular character of Haruhi Suzumiya is, in effect, a Magical She Is Not My Girlfriend, and a inversion of the whole thing, as she epitomizes exactly what protagonist Kyon claims he doesn't want out of life. It's quite likely he's lying to himself. Meanwhile, Haruhi herself is a Reality Warper who has no idea she is one (her thinking she is normal is one of the forces driving the plot). However, Kyon knows, and it's even partly his fault (without his actions three years ago they would not have met). | |

Unfortunately, Rose's species doesn't reproduce sexually, and while she was able to shapeshift up some compensations to have a son with Greg regardless, the effort still killed her as Steven inherited the magical gem that was the core of her being. Steven Quartz Universe, in turn, shows signs of being a magical boyfriend to Connie Maheswaran, although it isn't quite clear given that they're still pretty young. |

Earth Girls Are Easy is a Gender Flip version with a coincidental setup to Date with an Angel (both movies were made in The '80s): The morning after a Valley Girl manicurist learns her doctor fiance (whom she's blindly loved for years) is unfaithful, a spaceship carrying three humanoid, furry, Day-Glo colored, male aliens crashes in her pool. One makeover later they easily pass for Earthlings and Valerie finds herself falling in love with the leader of the trio, Mac — who is Mr. Fanservice, genuinely concerned for her happiness upon learning of her situation, and has a magical "love touch" that yields wondrous results in the bedroom. But Mac has to return to his homeworld, and Ted is swearing that he's changed and he misses her... When Mac uses the love touch to help Valerie (about to run off to Las Vegas with Ted for a quickie wedding) distract Ted from the aliens' departure, she realizes it's not working on her this time, confirming Mac's her true love. She runs off with him instead. | |

In Kumiko The Demon Girl, Ken, perpetually luckless with women, gets Kumiko, a somewhat naive and overly chipper demon, as his girlfriend. On the plus side, the sex is great and he's protected against various mystical threats around him. On the minus side, she's consuming a bit more of his soul every time they have sex and the mystical threats largely exist due to Kumiko existing. Oh, and the mystical chain connecting them prevents him from getting too far away from her, he bears a brand on his neck of a cartoonish copy of her flashing a V-Sign, her naïveté constantly gets him hurt, when his luck does change, she drives the other girls away... but then again, the sex is really, really good. | |

Mamotte Shugogetten. The main character ends up with two (diametrically opposed) magical girlfriends. One is a Nice Girl who draws magical energy from the moon and summons cutesy sprites. The other is a Tsundere Vamp who draws magical energy from the sun and can bring inanimate objects to life. Hilarity Ensues. | |

Teased in The Big O. Reading between the lines, R Dorothy Waynewright carries a bit of a torch for protagonist Roger Smith. She leans much more Tsundere than the typical example, though, and for his part he's far more badass than most of the recipients of such attention. Ultimately subverted by the fact that he's largely oblivious to her affections and that the world is mysteriously "rebooted". | |

Video Girl Ai, although this story of a too-good-to-be-true girlfriend gets subverted immediately and goes dark fairly early on. A depressed, unlucky Youta decides to rent a video from a mysterious video store. Turns out the videos in the store contained "video girls", girls which literally come to life and out of the user's television when the videotape is played to cheer the renter up. Ai Amano then comes to life with the purpose to brighten up Yota's life and she falls in love with him. However, Youta played the video on a broken video recorder and because of this Ai's personality is pretty much the total opposite of what your typical Magical Girlfriend would be; she's a Ladette, she can barely cook and she's clumsy. Not to mention her feelings for Youta are a result of her malfunctioning in the first place. | |

Xenoblade Chronicles 2 starts with Rex, a boy works as a Salvager, getting recruited for a mission that ultimately leads him to discover the Aegis: an ancient, legendary sword that contains a girl named Pyra, who on top of being incredibly powerful, has a kind and domestic personality. Their relationship and bond is a major plot point that spans across the entire game. Then there's the reveal of Pyra's sister and Alternate Self Mythra. She too also develops a relationship with Rex in the game (though in a more Tsundere manner), and the ending that reveals that both have been revived in separate bodies leaves it ambiguous if Rex has two magical girlfriends or just the blade sister that confesses to him based on whose name he prefers. | |

Bludgeoning Angel Dokuro-chan is a parody of the genre that often Crosses the Line Twice. The titular Dokuro is an angel who falls in love with the main character Sakura...but whenever he accidentally does something to provoke her, she violently kills him, only to revive him not long afterwards. There's also the fact that the reason she lives with him is because she's been ordered to kill him, since in the future he'll apparently be responsible for inventing a form of immortality that prevents women from physically aging past twelve years old. | |

The Unexplored Summon://Blood-Sign: Deconstructed with the White Queen. The most powerful being in the setting, essentially a goddess among goddesses... and an unstable Yandere who doesn't care for anyone but her love. The target of her love, the main character Kyousuke, could quite accurately be described as her victim as well. She sees nothing wrong with inflicting all kinds of suffering on him - on the contrary, she considers him all the more attractive when he's struggling against adversity. After all, why would an inhuman entity have a human sense of morality? Though at the same time, the trope is also reconstructed - the Queen wasn't originally evil, but became this way as a result of humans trying to exploit her power. | |

While not explicitly a magical being, she teleports into another section of the mines to give you a magical sword and it's heavily implied she is immortal (through various events you can access after marrying her, you discover the reason she cannot talk is that the Witch Princess cursed her for some reason 1,000 years ago and left her to sleep in the mines). | |

The main driving force of Kanokon, asides from the fanservice and the comedy brought about by Chizuru's extreme sexual lust.

Anera, an Aasimar cleric in the Neverwinter Nights community-created Shadowlords/Dreamcatcher/Demon module arc, might qualify. She takes a bit more effort than most Magical Girlfriends, but she is supernatural and will only hook up with a good-hearted character, and her half-celestial cousin pops up to kill her and you for disturbing the balance of the universe in the last Shadowlords module (giving you the opportunity to complete Anera's romance sidequest by taking a death effect for her, though The Power of Love keeps you alive at 1hp). | |

In addition, although he is quite powerful for a half-god, he is still weaker than most of his friends. For this reason he often has inferiority complexes. But later he lands on a mystical island, where he meets Calypso. It takes a while, however, until the two fall in love, especially because Calypso does not always show their feelings. | |

Eleven on Stranger Things is a deconstructed example for Mike Wheeler. Once they become an Official Couple, El has no idea how to handle the pitfalls of a normal romantic relationship thanks to the upbringing that led to her magical powers in the first place, along with having a life centered entirely on Mike and Hopper's desires. Fortunately, it's reconstructed in season 3 when she seeks out Max, who shows her "there's more to life than stupid boys" and helps El develop her own inner life and independence, while also pushing Mike to treat her like a real partner rather than a Wish-Fulfillment pet. By the end of the season, the two have a just as loving but much better relationship, though they're still forced to split up as Eleven is adopted by the Byerses and moves away. | |

Way, way back in the 1960's, Dick Tracy went through a period known as the Moon Period, where the strip focused more on sci-fi elements than crime. During this time, Junior Tracy (Dick's adopted son) met and fell in love with the alien woman Moon Maid, who resembled a Caucasian female apart from her large eyes and giraffe-like horns, and possessed the ability to change her body temperature from 18 degrees above zero to 200 degrees (affecting whatever she touched) and shoot destructive energy from her hands, causing things to blow up. He eventually married her, and they had a daughter, Honey Moon, who possessed a magnetic ability to attract small metal objects to her hands. Sadly, Moon Maid died via a car bomb meant for Dick. | |

This gets subverted multiple ways on The Almighty Johnsons. The day before and after his 21st birthday hapless college student Axl Johnson has two different Magical Girlfriends show up who are quite eager to hook up with him. However, they are actually Norse goddesses trying to kill him before he becomes the incarnation of the god Odin. Axl's brother Ty is the incarnation of the god Hod and due to his cold nature cannot find a girlfriend. When he finally finds a beautiful woman who wants to hook up with him, it turns out that she is another Norse goddess and thus a real Magical Girlfriend. However, he then finds out that she is destined to hook up with his jerkass brother Anders. |

Xanadu: Sonny is a failed artist who is reduced to painting advertisements in store windows in order to earn a living. Then Kira, a gorgeous rollerskating blonde played by Olivia Newton-John, falls in love with him. She turns out to be a Physical Goddess from Greek mythology (namely, The Muse Terpsichore). It was later adapted into a stage musical, which changed the ending - in the film, Kira is forced to return to Mount Olympus, but in the musical, she is allowed to stay with Sonny. | |

Sadly subverted in Tales of MU with the bonus story "A Boy's Prayer": the story implies that Amaranth the cereal nymph manifested the way she is as (a buxom, nerdy, glasses-wearing Love Freak) because one lonely, geeky twelve-year-old boy, uh, fertilized her field with fantasies and desires of such a woman. The subversion (and sadness) is that after she manifested exactly according to his desires, he never even got to meet her. | |

Shakugan no Shana: Yui is not necessarily a typical loser, but simply an ordinary schoolboy. Shana the "Flame Haze" is initially a bit rude and repulsive, but apart from that she's a typical magical girlfriend. Keisaku also counts, as he comes with another Flame Haze called Margery. Johann plays this trope straight, being a human being who falls in love with a powerful demon named Pheles. The love of the two is so strong that Pheles does not need to eat any more humans. |

Elfen Lied is arguably a deconstruction, with Lucy being more of a Dark Magical Girlfriend. Lucy is a mutant who is found and taken in by ordinary guy Kohta and his cousin after she escapes from her prison. She certainly loves Kohta, but due to her traumatic childhood spent bullied for being different, her magic is only good for exterminating humans. On top of that, she suffers from a Split Personality which makes switch from cutesy to murderous constantly. Many wish-fulfillment elements common in the genre get flipped on their head or presented as creepy or unwholesome, as well. | |

Urusei Yatsura famously parodied the genre back in the seventies (long before there was actually such a genre) by having the Unlucky Everydude be a slovenly, pitifully-desperate pervert who likely deserves all the trouble he goes through… and having the Magical Girlfriend be a beautiful Alien Princess who loves him despite his lechery, but is also a clingy, possessive Tsundere who isn't adverse to zapping him with her electrical powers when he strays, as well as being somewhat bumbling, usually causing more problems than she solves. To add to this, he already had a girlfriend he liked better, and genuinely didn't want Lum at first. | |

Housepets!: Shortly after Peanut's False Start, Grape comes home from her date with Max to find Peanut watching a movie with another dog, Tarot. This was first time she had appeared in the comic and had apparently "foreseen Peanut in his hour of need." At first, it seemed her magic-ness was just a throw-away gag, but she has since been shown capable of Telepathy and mental illusion, among other things. And the source of her magic-ness is shown to be her status as a Player Character in a cosmic tabletop roleplaying game on a higher plane where the comic's world is the game world, and getting together with Peanut was part of that. Unfortunately that leads to some strain in their relationship as her patron has her own crush on him and Peanut has trouble differentiating the two. | |

Sekirei mixes this with a hefty dose of the Action Girlfriend, focusing on a battle royale between super-powered Human Alien beauties and their Puny Earthling boyfriends. A handful of Magical Boyfriends also exist in the story, and most of the prominent Ashikabi bond with multiple Sekirei and establish Battle Harems. Almost all Ashikabi were either losers or living empty lives until they met their Sekirei, and later chapters establish how The Power of Love not only makes the Sekirei stronger but causes positive changes in the Ashikabi over time. | |

Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous has another zig-zagged example with Arueshalae, a succubus trying to rise above her demonic nature. The Commander can act as a stabilizing influence and even potential love interest, helping her survive in the world of mortals without falling to the temptation of her Horror Hunger or grief over her past sins. Keep at it long enough and she can be completely redeemed, stripped of her succubus powers and able to truly experience love and intimacy for the first time. | |

Interestingly this happens in Sabrina the Teenage Witch too, except that it's gender flipped. Sabrina cooks up a temporary date out of man dough to take her to the dance when Harvey goes with Libby. He loves Sabrina, but he also loves everything and everyone. Libby ends up dumping Harvey for him as Harvey won't dance. Interestingly, in this situation the one who isn't the "Magical (Girl/Boy)friend" in this case is the one with the magical powers. The man dough guy qualifies by not being human, and by being totally into Sabrina. | |

Code Lyoko: As far as The Smart Guy Jérémie is concerned, Aelita definitely fits this trope; it was obvious to his friends that he was in love with her even though he knew her only as a cheerfully innocent, pixie-like artificial intelligence living in a computer. She's gradually revealed to be an amnesiac human girl who was trapped in cyberspace, and their relationship continues once she's rescued (though it also gets more complicated, as Jérémie predicted would happen if she started living on Earth). | |

She actually 'bonded' with Picard because she perceived him as someone very superior to, and much better than, her intended. There was the time everyone's favorite teen geek Wesley Crusher hooked up with an equally perfect seemingly-Human Alien girl from another world. Turns out she was a shapeshifter. |
