Every one knows a Near Pure Good Hero is incapable of corruption. Near Pure Goods who got involved with Fake Corruption, are chaotic heroes who (seemingly) appear to become corrupted, just for it to be revealed that it was fake and that they still remained to be heroes the whole time who have overruled and outwitting the villains. As Near Pure Goods are incapable of being corrupted, Fake Corruption is what occurs if they are in an unfortunate position. Examples of this happening would be:
- The hero appears to join the villains side, but it's revealed that they were either unaware of the villains manipulating them as people and being used as lackeys or whatnot; which results in them rejecting the corruption and being good people, or in rare cases, they are pragmatic heroes that had a fully expedient plan by going undercover to get information from them and use it against them at the end in order to save the day or serve the villain for selfless reasons out of pragmatic purposes. (e.g. Knuckles, Garp, Buzz Lightyear, and Beelzebul, and Hinata Sakaguchi)
- Heroes that are brainwashed into villainy, either through being possessed/controlled by villains or through rewriting their original personality (e.g. Mikan Tsumiki, Ryūko Matoi, Noriaki Kakyoin, May and Executor Vermillion)
- Dissociative heroes who appear to have a villainous alter-ego, but this side of them are more harmless and mischievous compared their main personality that outweighs their corrupting factors since they are very pure and selfless at heart (e.g. Buttercup, and Red).
- The hero betrays a hero for a seemingly selfish reason, but it is revealed it was for their sake or someone else's and wasn't true betrayal (e.g. Piccolo).
Their villainous counterparts are Faux Redemption Near Pure Evils.
