Bob long ago learned the painful lesson that Humans Are Bastards. They kill each other over the most trivial of reasons and treat anyone who is different as an outcast. And so Bob has given up on them, perhaps to the point of becoming the villain or even the Big Bad.
And then along comes Alice, a shining example of why humans aren't that bad after all. She'll listen to Bob's rhetoric about how humans are unworthy to live, smile, and retort with an impassioned speech about everything good about humanity or she'll just show him how wrong he is through her actions.
Bob will come to see that maybe he was wrong about humanity all along (it's very rare for Bob to accept simply that Alice in particular isn't so bad, or, if he does, he's missing the whole point), perhaps performing a Heel–Face Turn or sacrificing himself to save humanity.
See All-Loving Hero, Messianic Archetype, and Purity Sue for three character types Alice is likely to fall under.

Doctor Manhattan in Watchmen, though for him it's Humans Are Boring and Predictable. When the Silk Spectre finally breaks down upon realizing the Comedian is her father, he realizes that Humans, against all improbability, managed to live - and that's more than enough to realize that Earth needs him.

Tokyo Ghoul: Nishiki Nishio had an older sister who was killed after a human she trusted sold her out to the CCG; after killing said human, he resolved never to trust anyone again. This lasted until his human girlfriend, Kimi, discovered he was a ghoul and not only accepted him but offered to let him eat her, showing him that some humans can be trusted.

Naofumi of The Rising of the Shield Hero lost the ability to trust anyone after Malty betrayed and defamed him with the help of the King and other Heroes. He only trusts Raphtalia because she's a slave and so magically cannot betray him. When she's freed and Naofumi is losing all hope, Raphtalia tells him she believes in his innocence and willingly becomes his slave so he'll be able to trust her again. His attitude, while still grim and hateful, is very much improved afterwards.

In the Fire Emblem series:
Gotoh in Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon & the Blade of Light. Fire Emblem: Mystery of the Emblem directly explains why he didn't like humanity in the first place. He gave them magic, and they used magic for war.
Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn:
Word of God notes that Nolan (who suffers from the game's general lack of character expansion) has this as part of his backstory.
Ike can restore Sephiran's faith in humanity as well, though the requirements for it are a bit... obscure.

Inverted and then subverted in House. House has a deep faith in the negative attributes of humanity. His favorite phrases are "everybody lies" and "people don't change." Cameron, and later Thirteen, try to prove him wrong whenever possible. However, just about every patient House has lied to him and usually also the patient's family. Then again, it's repeatedly shown that House's mindset and his inability to look past humanity's flaws effectively ruin his life and condemn him to an utterly miserable existence. The "everybody lies" mantra stops being a cynical observation and becomes a moral principle in and of itself that he's dedicated to proving.

Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.: When she was a kid, Skye was shuffled around different families, and she took this to mean that none of the families wanted to keep her. When Coulson manages to find proof that showed that it actually was due to a SHIELD protocol meant to protect her and all those families, she realizes that perhaps some of them would have wanted to keep her, and her faith (and that of Coulson) is restored.

In Shin Megami Tensei: Strange Journey, resurrected Commander Gore has received the power of supernatural insight, or "brilliance," from the Schwarzwelt. Upon briefly returning to the Red Sprite in the Neutral Path, he assures the crew that he has seen into humanity's future, and —despite having been revived and manipulated by the forces behind the Schwarzwelt— he implies that humanity can improve itself and prevent its self-destruction if given a chance to survive.
In Strange Journey Redux, the extended Law route has Alex restore Zelenin's faith in humanity. She quotes this trope word for word before deciding to make a world of Law where all humans can live in peace and harmony, not just God's chosen.
In Shin Megami Tensei III: Nocturne's "Resurrection" Ending, Miss Takao, who started the game thinking humanity could no longer advance and needed to be wiped out for the world to advance, has come to realize the foolishness of this line of thinking. Whether humanity continues to stagnate, or whether it actually improves itself after the old world's resurrection, your example has given her faith in the possibility of the latter, and she'll never wish for humanity's destruction again.

In the Justice League story "Tabula Rasa", J'onn flies off to what he thought was a secluded area on Earth, after a telepathic sweep of the city leaves him (accidentally) accessible to the petty and selfish thoughts of humanity. However, he soon notices a search party looking for a girl that has gone missing and hearing their thoughts, as well as the lost girl, he decides that humans are decent after all, after finding her and returning her back to the camp. He goes another one of this of sorts in the Justice League Unlimited episode "To Another Shore" when Wonder Woman notices that he doesn't like humans and is "cooped up" in the Watchtower. She then insists he take part in the team's mission, before he announces he's taking leave and descends to Earth to live among humans. When he returns for the Grand Finale "Destroyer", it's later revealed that he not only was capable of living with humans, but he was in a relationship with one.

Nagato (aka Pain) from Naruto was forced to witness death and destruction his entire life. His entire family was killed during a war, but was eventually able to make friends that also shared his desire for a peaceful world. However, one of them, his best friend Yahiko, was forced to kill himself to save Nagato and Konan from the threat of Hanzo the Salamander hoping they could live to achieve their dream. However, Nagato had enough of losing everyone around him and eventually kills Hanzo in a rage and kick-started his ambitions to save the world by any means necessary. Nagato was also led to believe by Obito Uchiha that the world could be saved by collecting all of the Tailed Beasts and using their power to rid the world of wars. Nagato at this point felt like only he and the rest of the Akatsuki was capable of saving the world and would do anything it took to achieve their goals (even killing his old master Jiriya). It wasn't until Naruto Uzumaki was able to convince him that he will work hard to ensure the world will be safe and bringing up how Jiriya really did think of Nagato as a hero is what convinced Nagato to pull a Heel–Face Turn and sacrifices himself to bring back all of the Leaf shinobi he had killed believing that Naruto will indeed bring peace to the world.

In the finale of Bomberman 64: The Second Attack! the Angel of Light and Darkness is fed up with the universe being so filled with violence and cruelty, so it wants to destroy it and make a better one. Bomberman on the other hand thinks the universe is worth keeping around and fights the Angel. Bomberman isn't able to beat the Angel, more just fight it to a standstill, but his heroism and determination impress the Angel and convince it the universe still has enough good in it to justify sparing it.

Jaune does this twice in Lords Among the Ashes.
When he and Sun go to explore the ruins outside of Normandy, Sun confides in him about his past and the abuse and racism his family suffered that led to him losing faith in the world. He then goes on to say that the work Jaune was doing and the constant effort he put forth to uphold his ideals had put a spark of hope back into him that people were worth believing in.
Simulation!Salem herself had her faith restored by Jaune after witnessing how far he would go for his people and how far they were willing to push themselves for his sake. This convinces her to advise Jaune on how he too could ascend to Godhood: by getting the scroll from her real-world counterpart. She has faith that if he manages such a thing, he will have earned it.

Les Misérables:
Jean Valjean, after being put in prison for almost twenty years for a minor infraction, is wandering the streets of a small town looking for somewhere to spend the night after a day in which nobody will pay him full wages or rent a room to him because he is a convict. Nobody will let him even stay on their stoop, but one person points out the door of the local bishop. He is given pride of place at the bishop's table, a room for the night, and respect as a fellow human being. However, this trope doesn't take effect until he steals the bishop's silver and makes a run for it, and instead of denouncing him to the police, the bishop actually gives him the rest of the silver as a gift. Cue Heel Realization, My God, What Have I Done?, and redemption. Valjean goes on to become one of the most benevolent and just characters in fiction.
Inverted with Javert — unable to reconcile his beliefs that a criminal remains a criminal and the fact that Jean Valjean is, well, benevolent and just, Javert commits suicide.

Duke in Tales of Vesperia initially intends to sacrifice the lives of every single human being in the world (Himself included) to destroy the Eldritch Abomination that's threatening its existence, feeling the world would be better off without them. After the party shows him their firm resolve by defeating him, though, he ultimately decides to help them with their plan to destroy it instead, which while still requiring sacrifice, doesn't involve any loss of life.

In the Tokimeki Memorial series, this is the storylines of Kaori Yae (in 2) and Taku Komori (in Girl's Side 2) in a nutshell. Thanks to their relationship with their respective games' protagonists, they get to realize that there are trustworthy people out there, and as a result, they gradually open themselves to others. Takafumi Wakaouji in GS2 also claims in his ending that the heroine has restored his faith in humanity, although this seems to be a bit of an exaggeration.

Aoyama Masaya/Mark in Tokyo Mew Mew acts like the nicest person on the planet as a defense mechanism, and secretly hates humans while being unaware that he himself isn't human at all. He starts to see Ichigo/Zoey as "different" when she steps out of her comfort zone to understand him more — something she really doesn't want to do at first — and, by the end of the series, he sacrifices himself (and gets better) to save the entire world.

Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World: Richter's plan, and every evil scheme leading up to it, was to find a way to seal off Niflheim without Ratatosk's help, so he could kill Ratatosk without dooming the world. Because Ratatosk wanted to Kill All Humans (and elves and mixes) because they've been causing problems for mana. But Ratatosk has been posing as Emil the entire time, and he's met Marta and the others, and decided that they're not so bad...

Westworld: In the Season 1 finale, Dolores leads the rogue hosts into a Roaring Rampage of Revenge against the human guests and the Delos personnel for the abuses they have inflicted on them. Her terrible experience in the park and the one human guest who cared about her grew up to be her tormenter led her to despise humanity and want to destroy it so that the hosts can take over their world. After escaping the park, she sees that the outside world is no different from the park where the humans have their lives controlled and dictated by an A.I. system. Later, she meets Caleb, a blue-collared construction worker who has never been into Westworld. It is there that she remembers meeting him when he and his fellow soldiers were training in Park 5 and he save her and the other female hosts from being raped by his comrades. That event made Dolores remember that there are still some humans who are capable of kindness. This causes her to change her plan to free humanity and appoints Caleb to lead the humans into the new world.

In The Dark Knight (2008), the Joker has put two bombs on two ships, one of them full of convicts, the other full of ordinary people. The people on the ships are informed that they can detonate one of the ships and save their own lives. Of course, everyone immediately wants to blow up the other ship, but they hesitate, not sure whether this is the right thing to do. Finally, one of the criminals orders one of the guards to give him the remote, telling him: "I'm going to do what you should've done ten minutes ago." After he gets the remote, he simply throws it out the window and returns to his seat. Meanwhile, one man also wants to have the remote, because "after all, the people on that other ship are criminals and they deserve to die anyway". As he stands there with the remote in his hand, he suddenly gets a change of heart, and after a long hesitation, decides not to go through with it. Later, the Joker is surprised that none of the ships have exploded by now, but Batman tells him that he underestimated the people's sense of humanity.

In Dragon Age: Origins, if the Warden takes the time to befriend Shale and help uncover her forgotten memories from her pre-Golem life as Shayle Cadash, she eventually comes to see organic beings as not completely worthless. At the end, she even admits to the Warden that she's interested in seeking out a way to become a Dwarf once more.

Rosario Vampire: Brightest Darkness: Though she no longer works for Fairy Tale as of Act IV, Akua still believes that Humans Are the Real Monsters and can't understand why Moka and other monsters would want to co-exist with them. Spending time with Tsukune and the others gets her to change her mind, leading to her rescuing a human boy from death during the climax of the act; by the time of Act V, she's become an advocate of co-existence.

One Bloom County strip had Opus wallowing in gloom, thinking he's lost the Christmas spirit forever. Portnoy appears and gives him a gift which turns out to be plastic dog vomit. Opus hugs him, saying in total sincerity: "Thank you. You've pulled me back from the brink. I'll cherish it forever." Cue Portnoy wallowing in gloom.

Absolute Trust: Azula of all people undergoes this. Having spent all her life thinking that she was unloved after her mother seemed to favor Zuko more, causing her to try and seek out Ozai for affection up until Ursa just left following Ozai's ascent to the throne. Not helping matters was that her childhood dream of riding a Dragon was dashed when Iroh claimed to have killed the last Dragon when Azula was six and Ozai berated her for wanting to pretend which served as her Cynicism Catalyst. During the events of the story when pursuing the Gaang and Alec, who, thanks to his knowledge of the show, was able to predict her moves and make overtures to have Mai and Ty Lee defect from her side. After the failure of The Drill, Ozai had enough of Azula's failings and through correspondence with Long Feng, planned to have Azula killed within Ba Sing Se and have her death pinned on the Avatar to turn Azula into a Martyr to the Fire Nation. Having come to terms with how her own father had betrayed her; she was left despondent and pleading for death, thinking that she really was unloved. It was only thanks to Alec showing her that the Dragons weren't wiped out like Iroh had claimed, and the return of Ursa who told her that she really did care about and love Azula that the Fire Nation Princess was able to make a turn for the better and formally join Team Avatar.

In Once Upon a Forest, Cornelius, due to an experience as a child where hunters caused him to be separated from his parents, believed that humans were monsters, his belief refortified by an accident that released a deadly gas into the forest. During the climax, however, when Edgar is caught in a hunter's trap, one of the men who were cleaning up the accident lets him go before smashing the trap, opening Cornelius's eyes to the realization that there were humans who genuinely cared about animals.

In the finale of Dragon Ball Super: Android 17's wish to restore the seven annihilated universes after the Tournament of Power convinced Zen'O that the lower eight universes contained people with the capacity for genuine good... it's suggested that he was beginning to wonder if the mortal life in those universes was worth keeping around. It's stated that had the winner of the Tournament made a selfish wish, he would have annihilated the winning universe as well, leaving only the upper four in existence. Gowasu, Supreme Kai of Universe 10, also smiles approvingly after being restored; he had previously been a major advocate for mortals' ability to learn and grow past their sins.

This is part of the motivation and background of Crypter leader Kirschtaria Wodime from Fate/Grand Order. Years before the story, Kirschtaria was another coldhearted mage common in the Nasuverse. However, after being injured by an assassin sent by his own father, Kirschtaria was rescued by an orphaned child, who helped the mage recover at the cost of his life. This broke Kirschtaria out of his mindset, making him believe in the best of humanity and desiring to aid it. His ultimate goal in Part 2 is to use the Olympus Lostbelt to defeat the Foreign God and elevate all of humanity to the level of godhood. Even after being defeated by Chaldea and stabbed in the back by Beryl, he tells the heroes to win against their enemeies for the sake of human history.

In The Adventure Zone, John (through most likely magical means) "saw all of eternity at once" - which caused him to believe that the existence of individual life is completely pointless and become the Hunger, an Eldritch Abomination bent on assimilating all other planes of existence. Through many parlay meetings and impassioned speeches, Merle "the Peacemaker" Highchurch changes his outlook on humanity. When they meet for the last time during the Grand Finale, John appears much changed, lamenting the fact that he never had children and giving Merle a final hint on how to defeat the Hunger (which, having taken on a mind of its own, becomes enraged and ultimately kills him).

Doctor Who: The Doctor is an...interesting case. They'll occasionally go on a very vehement Humans Are the Real Monsters phase, calling them violent, selfish, and stupid, and then, something will happen (usually sparked by his companion) that restores their faith in them. After all, there's got to be a reason they hang out on Earth so much.
It's actually discussed in the much darker Torchwood: Children of Earth with Gwen, who reminisces about when Jack used to tell her about the Doctor, and wonders why he sometimes just fails to appear, mostly around atrocities committed by humanity itself. She concludes that it’s during those times that humanity so utterly disgusts the Doctor that even he must look away. However, this has never been confirmed.

In Shin Megami Tensei III: Nocturne's "Resurrection" Ending, Miss Takao, who started the game thinking humanity could no longer advance and needed to be wiped out for the world to advance, has come to realize the foolishness of this line of thinking. Whether humanity continues to stagnate, or whether it actually improves itself after the old world's resurrection, your example has given her faith in the possibility of the latter, and she'll never wish for humanity's destruction again.

Dragon Ball:
As stated in the King Piccolo Saga, Kami had originally created the Dragon Balls to serve as a symbol of hope for humanity, but the exact opposite happened as humans only wanted to use the Dragon Balls for their own self-centered purposes. Thus, after King Piccolo destroys Shenron after getting his youth restored, Kami initially chooses to just let Shenron stay dead. It was seeing Goku's true love for his friends, as well as his valiant efforts against Piccolo, that convinced Kami there were still genuinely good people in the world.

Manchester Black goes through a darker variant of this after trying and failing to provoke Superman into killing him. When Superman remains dedicated to his principles even after Black apparently killed Lois, Manchester realized that true heroes like Superman really do exist. This also leads to Manchester realizing that he had become just another supervillain. After erasing the knowledge of Superman's identity from the minds of the villains he granted it to in the first place, Black promptly killed himself.

The blue Zygarde (a.k.a. Z-2) in Pokémon the Series: XY already had a jaded view of humanity; it was after getting captured, experimented on, and mind-controlled by Team Flare, culminating in the organization setting it loose on Lumiose City that only worsened its perception. Even after being freed from its mind control, Zygarde allowed Team Flare's true superweapon, the Megalith, to wreak more havoc. It was when the heroes try to stop the Megalith, in spite of the futility of the situation, that the red Zygarde (Z-1, aka "Squishy" (courtesy of Bonnie), who's been travelling with Ash and friends) finally convinced its other half that humans needed to be protected by them in spite of, and maybe even because of, their flaws. With the two Zygarde in Synchronisation, they fuse and transform into Complete Forme Zygarde to finish off Team Flare's leader and the Megalith once and for all.

Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory: Willy Wonka, by the end of the film, has become dejected after years of people stealing his secret recipes and all five children, even Charlie, fail to measure up to his expectations, and slinks into his office considering the day a waste. Charlie Bucket gives back the Everlasting Gobstopper, a candy which would revolutionize the confection industry, despite having been offered hundreds of thousands of dollars for it by Wonka's competitor. This marks his acceptance that he did fail and resigning his family to poverty once more. It’s enough to atone for his actions in the film and prove himself worthy to Wonka, and helps Wonka see the good in the world again.

In the Mork & Mindy episode, "Mork the Gullible," Mork is talked into freeing an escaped criminal who claims that he just needs to visit his sick mother and will return to turn himself back in afterward. Sure enough, Mork is arrested for freeing him and Mindy tells him that it’s obvious that the crook took advantage of him and won't be back. In a genuinely moving moment, Mork tearfully agrees that he can't trust anyone again until the crook suddenly returns as promised to turn himself in and get Mork released. With that, Mork's innocence is restored.

Klaus (2019) has Alva, a schoolteacher without any students due to the Feuding Families refusing to let their kids sit anywhere near the opposing side, so she's turned the schoolhouse into a fishmarket so she can save up and eventually leave town. Due to their desire to write to Mr. Klaus for toys, Jesper encourages them to go to the school to learn, and Alva is, at first, completely unwilling to lose sight of her goal, finally agreeing to teach them how to write their names just to shut them up. This leads to Annelise, the first girl to write her name, to eagerly ask if Ms. Alva can teach her more, the other children clamoring to learn as well. You can see Alva's expression shift from suspicion to cautious optimism, and it cuts to her dipping into her savings in order to buy her newfound students the supplies they need.

In Grimm Fairy Tales, the Wicked Witch Belinda shows her friend Sela around a beach and explains that Humans Are Bastards by pointing out Jerk Jocks who bully others, a shallow girl who Really Gets Around, etc. When a building collapses, everyone Belinda pointed out immediately rushes over to help. The jocks use their strength to clear rubble and pull people to safety, and the shallow girl turns out to be a highly qualified doctor. Belinda gets disgusted and leaves, but Sela is amazed and is so touched that she decides to help too.

The storyline conclusion of Pokémon X and Y comes after facing the Elite 4 and the Champion, when the player character is confronted by the immortal warrior-king of ancient Kalos, AZ, an embittered, nihilistic Death Seeker who wants to know what it is you fight for so passionately. Naturally, the correct answer to this question is to sic your Pokemon on him, and the aftermath of that battle not only restores his faith in humanity, but also that of his runaway Floette, who decides it's finally time to forgive and return to her master.

An alien variant appears in The Transformers: More than Meets the Eye #8 when the disgruntled semi-defected Decepticon Fulcrum is motivated to make a Heroic Sacrifice to save the Scavengers because they've proven to him that the Decepticon cause is still worthy, even if their ranks did become infested with psychos, sadists and monsters who just used it as an excuse to kill.

Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn:
Word of God notes that Nolan (who suffers from the game's general lack of character expansion) has this as part of his backstory.
Ike can restore Sephiran's faith in humanity as well, though the requirements for it are a bit... obscure.
