There's something about the Big Man on Campus that drives all the girls wild... even the ones that know he is sooo out of their league. If the dorky girl wants the most popular guy at school, it usually ends in one of two ways: either the two end up together, or she finds out that he's actually a Big Jerk on Campus. Sometimes all it takes is a makeover to get the guy to notice the girl. If he ends up returning her feelings, often his ex-girlfriend the Alpha Bitch will get jealous. Classmates will wonder what the quarterback is doing with the nerd. This version is common Wish-Fulfillment often seen in shows aimed at tweens and in chick flicks. If it doesn't work out between them, expect there to be An Aesop, usually something like "Don't change yourself for a jerk" or "Popularity isn't everything". A common Wish-Fulfillment romance trope, particularly in the teen romance and shoujo genre. Frequently shows up alongside I Can't Believe a Guy Like You Would Notice Me. Sometimes overlaps with Give Geeks a Chance. See also Girl Next Door Turned Superstar, which is when a guy longs for a girl he used to know who has become famous. All Guys Want Cheerleaders is often the gender-flipped version of this trope. |

Miraculous Ladybug: Played with. Marinette has a crush on her classmate, the handsome Teen Idol Adrien. In the "Origins" two-parter, it turns out that Marinette didn't like Adrien at first — when she caught him cleaning up the chewing gum that Chloe had intended to put in her seat, she assumed he was in on the prank. However, the next day, Adrien offers her his umbrella and explains what had happened. After seeing how kind he was, Marinette immediately falls for him. Played straight with Lila, as to her, Adrien's status and good looks make him the 'ideal boyfriend' for her. |

Naruto: Sakura has an infatuation with Sasuke, which is one of her defining traits, particularly at the beginning. It is also totally unrequited, with Sasuke often calling Sakura out for being average. Of course, this is often Played for Laughs, as almost every girl in Naruto (except Hinata) is obsessed with Sasuke, particularly while they're still in the Academy. The competition over Sasuke has had such results as ending friendships, causing fights in classrooms, and trampling innocent bystanders. Later is played for more tragedy, as Sakura's specific case is actually a deconstruction of All Girls Want Bad Boys. Ultimately she still marries him and has a daughter with him anyway. | |

Played with in different ways in Double Homework regarding all of the protagonist's classmates, minus Johanna: Deconstructed with Lauren. A big reason that Lauren goes to the lengths she does to date the protagonist is because he's so popular — and she wants the respect that comes with popularity. Subverted with Morgan. She affectionately calls the protagonist "Goldenboy", but she doesn't care at all about his popularity — only his humanity. Double subverted with Amy. She doesn't really care about the protagonist's skiing ability, but once he starts getting dating success, Amy starts to see him as a way to explore her own sexuality. Zigzagged with Rachel. She doesn't care about the protagonist's skiing fame, but sees her ex as familiar, and finds his changes in outlook since the avalanche as refreshing. However, she's concerned for a time that he might have had a more active sex life than she has since their breakup. |

High School Musical: Gabriella towards Troy, though she's not actually interested in his popularity. She falls for him when they meet on vacation and doesn't discover he's the 'most popular guy' until later on. In fact, she's noticeably put off when he acts like a jerk to please his friends and tells him she prefers the real him instead of the Big Man on Campus everyone else sees. It also helps that Troy is smitten with her from the get-go (even though she's a Shrinking Violet that doesn't undergo a makeover), and they single-handily demolish the school's social structure. Played straight with Sharpay. She's obsessed with making her and Troy East High's 'primo girl and guy', and goes to near-sexual harassment levels to win him over. Add in that Troy carries a lot of insecurity about being defined only as the popular, basketball guy and it gets worrying. |

Spider-Man: It's not called attention to, but outcast nerd Peter is infatuated with Mary Jane, who's known to be the prettiest girl in school and an implied drama star. Though Played With as Peter has loved her since they were kids, long before she became popular. It helps that MJ is one of his few classmates who is kind to him and actually admires his intelligence, and turns out to secretly be a Lonely at the Top Stepford Smiler. In turn, MJ is at her most relaxed around Peter and comfortable being emotionally open with him, implicitly because unlike the richer and popular crowd she tends to run with, he's empathetic to her struggles and doesn't have any false or unrealistic expectations of her. | |

Gender inverted twice in Kaguya-sama: Love Is War: Ishigami ends up falling for Tsubame despite the two of them literally being on opposite ends of the Popularity Food Chain (she's one of the three School Idols and he's a pariah due to an incident in middle school). He never had any intention of pursuing her due to knowing that she was completely out of his league, but Kaguya makes it her mission to help him win her affections in the hopes that going through the effort would improve his self-confidence. Apparently, this is also the case with Shirogane, a working-class citizen and one of the "impurities" among Shuchi'in students, pursuing Kaguya, a School Idol from a very powerful family. His constant efforts to defend his first place in examinations and earn distinction as the Student Council President are all done in hopes of being able to stand on an equal footing with Kaguya. |

The House of Night: Zoey catches the eye of Erik, who's repeatedly referred to as "the hottest guy in the school" and makes practically all girls swoon while thinking about how gorgeous he is. True to this trope's description, his ex-girlfriend is the Alpha Bitch Aphrodite who is not amused when she finds out about his relationship with Zoey. They eventually break up, though, mainly because of Zoey's utter inability to not throw herself at every hot guy who crosses her path. Zoey's other boyfriends, incidentally, are the popular football star from her previous high school and the incredibly handsome poetry teacher that all the female students seem to have crushes on. |

Shirou in Fate/stay night has a small crush on Tohsaka at the start of the story, though he only knows her public persona. However, when he gets to know her better and sees both her good and bad sides, he only comes to appreciate her even more, though they may not end up together. Interestingly, she had a small crush of her own on him. | |

Kimi ni Todoke: Played with in the series as Sadako actually tries not to like Kazehaya because he's too much of a "creature of the light" for her dark, gothic sensibilities and can barely handle being looked directly at by him without erupting in a nosebleed. To be clear, this isn't specific to Kazehaya (at least not in the beginning): Sadako can't handle any really attractive person staring at her. Kazehaya later on actually develops feelings for her as well because she's a loner and he too does his best to ignore or deny it. | |

When Adrian (who is Kyle under a curse, which Lindsy doesn't know) asks if she liked him because he was attractive, she was more interested in his confidence and charisma. | |

Fruits Basket: Most of Tohru's homeroom think this is going on between her and the very popular Yuki, as they both seem to be attracted to and interested in one another. What may have started as romantic is resolved as platonic as Tohru ends up falling for Kyo, who isn't as popular due to his abrasive attitude, and Yuki realizes his feelings for Tohru were more that of a child yearning for a mother's love. They end up Better as Friends. Yuki ends the story with the shy and usually-overlooked Machi, but he is the one who falls for her first. |

Carter in Princess Protection Program had a crush on Donny since third grade. Everyone who knows her, even her enemies, knows about it. At the dance, when She Cleans Up Nicely and he finally notices her, she turns him down flat, having realized what a self-centered jerkass he is. "Before I put on this dress, you couldn't even remember my name." (She's right; his inability to remember her name was actually a Running Gag throughout the movie.) | |

Except that Sam doesn't like Austin because everyone else does. At the beginning, she seems to think he's just another Jerk Jock, and she doesn't spare him any real thought until she finds out that he's Nomad. | |
