Tropes You Like

>the real villain is the waifu

But that trope is total garbage. It's just a way for the artist to be lazy and uncreative while pretending to be cheeky and zany. It would be more impressive to successfully work within the confines of the time period.

tropes are tools
no trope is inherently garbage

I think that trope can work, if it's well thought out and makes sense, instead of just "LOL THESE KNIGHTS JUST HAVE GUNS, ROLL WITH IT"

>>92081698
>Old man character
>Puts cocky, younger character(s) in their place with an ass whooping
>mfw

nice argument faggot

>>92081952
What more is there to say? How can no trope be garbage when, by definition, hackneyed cliches can be categorized as a type of trope? Are you really going to sit here and tell me that -for example- walls of text in comics is not categorically a bad trope?

>>92081698
>Character wants to test another character who is supposed to be a highly skilled combatant
>Sneak attacks or throws something at them
>Other character gets hit and knocked out or reacts like any ordinary person would

>>92082012
because everything can be good if it is well written
wall of texts can be funny when used cleverly

Or
>Main character established to be ridiculously strong
>Antagonist challenges them
>Villain gets hyped up
>Expecting more "arrogant villain gets stomped" comedy relief
>Hero throws a punch
>Villain's face

Love this shit

>>92082291
Even better?
>MC takes a massive beating from Villain.

When it happens in succession, it's great

>>92081785
I dunno, it MIGHT work. Settings with magic and such could do leaps of logic regarding technology.

>>92081698
I always thought that was more lazy than anything else. Maybe because it's so common

I love that shit, especially when the person that gets hurt is a friend or related person.
>MC gets that one good punch in and says "That's for (insert name here)"

>>92081785
The episode in Futurama where they go back in time to stop Farnsworth's ancestor and all the people of that time just treat Bender as an upgraded piece of their current technology was great

>Ben Franklin tying a kite to Bender to make him run faster

>hero with batman moral code
>villain goes too far to break the hero and make him realize that batman shit doesn't work.
>punished hero is a fucking beast with nothing holding him back
>villains face when
Honestly wish superman vs the elite didn't end with "I was merely pretending". Shit was GOAT until that point.

>Villain character has a lair with an office of his own
>Has a picture of his mom on the desk

>Hero has to deal with the American legal system.

Best example:

>Dr. Girlfriend:What’d he do to you?
>The Monarch: The usual he threw me in jail. He literally threw me right into the yard of the state prison and he shouts up to the warden, “looks like this one won’t be causing any more trouble.” Then he flies off with this gay salute
>Dr. Girlfriend: Oh my god
>The Monarch: Apparently he’s never heard of due process.

>villain's lackeys have an Employee of the Month wall
>one of them has an afro

>hero & villain romance plot (doesn't have to be the main character and villain, could be one of the other heroes and one of the main villains lackeys)

I like this alot but it's hard finding shows that have done it well, or actually follow through with it
