This character is harsh and mean. They are abrasive and cruel, but in truth they're just depressed and fearful, trying to intimidate people into leaving them alone. Like a hedgehog, this character bristles with spikes in order to protect themselves. Intimacy scares them, and perhaps they've been hurt before. This is a common method of creating a Jerkass Woobie. By being introduced as a jerk whom the audience hates, only for character development to reveal that in reality, they're just scared of getting close to anyone. Often overlaps with the Broken Bird who has similar feelings of depression, isolation, and fear of social interaction due to a Dark and Troubled Past. Broken Birds, however, tend to be passive, while this character is proactive about driving people away. May cultivate and revel in their jerkass reputation. If their hidden persona is discovered it is possible they might react with Don't You Dare Pity Me! Compare with Tsundere, a character who acts harsh and abrasive to conceal a sweet or loving side; and with Jerk with a Heart of Gold, where the character is mean and insufferable (with occasional gentler moments) but doesn't necessarily act like that because of a Freudian Excuse. The Stepford Snarker is somewhat similar, hiding their sadness and insecurities under snarkiness, but is not necessarily such a Jerkass about it. Being Sour Outside, Sad Inside is a fairly common trait of the Mentor in Sour Armor. In anime fandoms, this character is referred to as a tsunshun. In Real Life, frequent swings between angry/aggressive reactions and anxious/depressive ones are a hallmark of Borderline Personality Disorder. Pushing others away is also a common coping mechanism for people with Complex Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder. Therefore, Truth in Television. A lighter version is an Easily Embarrassed Youngster who hides and/or expresses their embarrassment through rudeness. Compare Knight in Sour Armor. |

The titular character of Electra Heart album by Marina Diamandis definitely qualifies: she's a self-admitted Alpha Bitch, (e.g. "Bubblegum Bitch") who's also a Broken Bird (e.g. "Living Dead") | |

Miu Iruma from Danganronpa V3: Killing Harmony is, simply put, a hot mess. She is extremely abrasive and prickly, hurling insults at her classmates, getting angry at them for wasting her time, and generally being a nuisance, making her The Friend Nobody Likes. Underneath all these are a lot of insecurities. She did not have anyone she could call a friend before participating in the Killing Game, something she is embarrassed to admit, and she tries very hard to get people to like her because of her beauty and genius, but she falls apart very quickly whenever these attempts fail (which is more often than not). She does not trust her classmates enough to work with them, and as the Killing Game progresses, she ends up attempting to kill Kokichi so that she can escape. Her Love Suite Event suggests that Miu has severe abandonment issues, making her loneliness worse; in the middle of an otherwise pleasant Childhood Friend Romance, Miu invokes a Baby Trap plan, believing it is the only sure way that her childhood friend would not abandon her. Lastly, taking her friendless background into consideration, she will quickly fall in love with anyone who shows her even a small amount of affection. | |

Check, Please! has Jack Zimmermann, in the beginning, since he was kind of mean to Bittle even after everybody on the team received him with open arms. His story is revealed early on in the comic, as a recovered addict with anxiety and a deep need for his father's approval (no matter the fact that his father is actually very caring and supporting). He gets better after that, especially after he and Bittle take classes together. | |

It's strongly implied that part of the reason Kim Pine in Scott Pilgrim acts so cold (especially to the protagonist) is due to the lack of closure in their relationship when Scott moved away and had their mutual friend tell Kim about it as opposed to Scott himself. When this topic finally gets brought to the surface, it's the only time in the entire series where Kim looks genuinely hurt. | |

Whitley Schnee from RWBY is antagonistic towards his older sister Weiss, and manipulated events to ensure Jacques saw him as the sole heir since he behaves like the perfect son. But Whitley is, in fact, just as much a victim of their father's abuse as Weiss and Winter are. When Weiss points out her strained relationship, Willow points out that it was because she left him alone with two terrible parents: an abusive father and a negligent mother. To drive the point home, when Jacques is arrested and taken away by the Atlas police, Whitley is shown sitting by himself on the stairs looking forlorn and confused, a reminder that Whitley is simply just a scared, lonely boy desperate for someone to genuinely love him. | |

Wonder Woman Vol 1: Paula von Gunther seemed like a cruel and sadistic Nazi spy until Diana forced her to tell her story with the magic lasso, at which point Paula revealed that she hated the Nazis and was only working for them because they'd murdered her husband right in front of her for her refusal to work for them and then taken her daughter hostage. Her apparent sadism was a result of her feeling she had no other way to help her daughter but no hope of actually rescuing or seeing her little girl again, so she hardened her heart and felt furious with those who seemed to be living happy or meaningful lives. | |

Gordon in The Young Protectors acts overbearing and abrasive towards the Kid Heroes under his supervision. In a candid moment, however, he admits that he is deeply ashamed of things he once did with his superpowers, tries to protect the team from repeating his mistakes, and actually feels jealous of a member who seems to be coping with his own Dark and Troubled Past better than he. | |

Subaru of Diabolik Lovers has a Hair-Trigger Temper and a curious talent for demolition, which he uses to intimidate people into leaving him alone by smashing walls and breaking furniture. He threatens to hurt the heroine in the same ways that he breaks things, despite never actually striking her. A painful childhood convinced him that he is some sort of monster who will involuntarily harm anyone who tries to get close to him, and he has made it into a self-fulfilling prophecy. | |

Touko Fukawa from Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc. Due to her traumatic childhood at the hands of her Abusive Parents, bullying by her classmates, and the fact that she's never had any loving relationships, she's developed an acerbic attitude along with strong paranoia that causes her to worry that everyone either hates her or is out to hurt or bully her. To make matters worse, the aforementioned trauma and abuse she endured growing up led her to develop a Split Personality, a Serial Killer named Genocider Syo; being conscious of Syo's crimes deeply distresses Fukawa, so much so that she rarely bathes so she doesn't have to see the Kill Tally that Syo carves into her thigh with each new victim. Thankfully, in Danganronpa Another Episode: Ultra Despair Girls she's befriended and treated with genuine kindness and love by Komaru, who she slowly manages to warm up to and trust. She eventually comes to truly care for and trust Komaru in return, and she sports her first genuine smiling sprite in the whole series — by the end, she proudly declares that she's found her "hope" in Komaru. | |

Girl Genius: Klaus Wulfenbach is an Emperor Scientist who rules large swathes of Europe with an iron fist (though pretty well), always chooses Lawful over Good and isn't afraid to Pay Evil unto Evil. Beneath is a man who had his idealism shot off in the war in a very spectacular way, who doesn't know if his best friends are alive or dead, who hasn't seen his wife in years, and who constantly worries about his son's safety, and in general just wishes people could be a little better so he didn't have to be an iron-fisted dictator and could spend more time on the scientific pursuits that are his real passion. | |

Sakana: Yuudai is an angry, loud-mouth jerk who claims to "hate everybody"...except he actually doesn't. Word of God confirms that Yuudai suffered some pretty hardcore abuse not too long ago and, in reality, is so afraid of being hurt again that he pushes everyone away. Due to this, he is very sad and lonely but maintains a sour exterior to hide his feelings— which works remarkably. | |

Max from Camp Camp is a mouthy, cynical little Jerkass, who often gives others a hard time for little to no reason, but underneath it all, is just a child lashing out, because his uncaring parents dumped him at a run-down summer camp, just so they don't have to deal with him; as often as he tries to escape from Camp Campbellnote at least early on, he never talks about going home or mentions his family at all. In "Parents' Day", he brags that his parents don't care about showing up to stupid camp events - however, as the episode goes on, it becomes increasingly clear that Max's parents aren't showing up because they really don't care about him, and didn't even bother to write what activity for him participate in on his information form. | |

In Nomine: While Dominic, the Archangel of Judgement, is every bit the ruthless Knight Templar that he presents himself as, a good chunk of the reason he interprets his Word so harshly is that he never quite recovered from the betrayal of his closest friend or his guilt over nearly Falling. There's a reason his black cloak shields him from all supernatural observation — he can't risk anyone seeing his fear of weakness, nor his grief over what he must do in the name of justice. | |

Long Exposure has Mitch. He is a Smug Smiler Bully and is known around school for his time in a reformatory after stabbing his stepdad, what's hardly any information to many is that said stepdad was abusive towards him and his mother, and the stabbing only happened after he started getting physical and Mitch tried to defend his mother. He also has deep-seated self-loathing issues and an eating disorder, all of that on top of being in love with his favorite victim due to having No Social Skills, and said victim hates him. The latter gets rectified when Mitch tells Jonas why he started bullying him in the first place. | |
