If there are any other underdogs not mentioned in the character relations then add them here and the reason why they are considered to be an underdog. Also add the character's as well as their manga or anime link.

I think you should add Makunouchi Ippo from Hajime no Ippo the reason i think he is an underdog is because he was bullied throughout most of his school life and he became a boxer through hard work and strong determination.

Definitely add Orihime. She's just a sweet young girl who was suddenly given the power to heal, and has absolutely no desire to harm anyone. However, she's continuously put into situations in which everyone expects her to be a fighter, and the fandom always expects so much from her. She has a lot of pressure put on her, combined with all the mindrape she's put through, but even though she can't fight, she continues to stand strong and retain her kindness and decency. I think one day, before the manga is completed, Kubo will give her a truly shining moment, and she'll show everyone just what she's made of!
Karen: So, if you're from Africa... why are you white? O_O
Gretchen: Oh my God Karen! You can't just ask people why they're white!

Sho Kazamatsuri. He's absolutely untalented at [world] football, but he keeps on training to become better. He's the 1st one to practice, the last one to go, and then spends all his off-time practicing or watching tapes of pros to help himself get better.

I'll add Orihime but I don't necessarily agree with everyone expecting her to fight; her powers aren't offensive in the least and from what I've read so far whenever there is a big battle she's somewhere on the sidelines watching or being told to get away.

Hi, would you consider Heiwajima Shizuo: http://myanimelist.net/character/24595/Shizuo_Heiwajima, from the anime Durarara!! http://myanimelist.net/anime/6746/Durarara!!, as an underdog? I sort of believe he is, since he's always belittled by Izaya, is always working hard to try not and lose control of his rage (even though it's extremely hard for him and most of the time fails). Plus, it's also shown throughout the series that Izaya is sort of the 'top dog' while he's basically the 'underdog', as he's always on the losing side (which is revealed throughout his past as well). I dunno, my explanation is sort of ... hard to understand, but if you don't count him as one I understand ^^
Swoosh !

I'm surprised Krillin (Kuririn) isn't on this list. xD
In Dragon Ball, he rivaled Goku as Master Roshi's only other apprentice and had a great deal of significance, then in Dragon Ball Z, he was reduced to a mere toenail compared to all the monster-powered characters on the show. Hell, the poor guy was killed for trying to be a badass (Destructo Disk-ing Frieza's tail). I think Krillin is definitely an underdog.
