Alpha Bitch: Difference between revisions

Line 40:

* Ami of ''[[Toradora!]]'', who usually hides her bitchiness behind a saccharine mask of sweetness until she feels she can get away with it. She does get [[Character Development]], though, switching to [[Lovable Alpha Bitch]]. Being a very popular teen model, she's used to various people fawning over her and such. But, ''because'' she's a model, they expect her to be the cute, sunny, eternally bubbly girl she's often portrayed as. [[Knight in Sour Armor|And she's sick of it.]]

* Katherina Sforza from the Nunnally-centered ''[[Code Geass]]'' manga ''[[Code Geass: Nightmare of Nunnally|Code Geass Nightmare of Nunnally]]''. She and the [[Girl Posse]] get [[Humiliation Conga|embarrassingly]] punished by Nunners's classmate {{spoiler|and the local [[Extraordinarily Empowered Girl]]}}, Alice, though.

* Tenjouin Saki of ''[[To ~~Love~~ Ru]]'' is a stark subversion: while she meets almost all of the standard Alpha Bitch traits, right down to the [[Noblewoman's Laugh]] and [[Princess Curls]], [[Jerk with a Heart of Gold|she has a very human side]]; she obtained one of the girls in her [[Girl Posse]] by [[Pet the Dog|rescuing her from bullies]]. She is legitimately kind to [[True Companions|her friends]], and to [[Morality Pet|her servants]].

* Tenjouin Saki of ''[[To LOVE-Ru]]'' is a stark subversion: while she meets almost all of the standard Alpha Bitch traits, right down to the [[Noblewoman's Laugh]] and [[Princess Curls]], [[Jerk with a Heart of Gold|she has a very human side]]; she obtained one of the girls in her [[Girl Posse]] by [[Pet the Dog|rescuing her from bullies]]. She is legitimately kind to [[True Companions|her friends]], and to [[Morality Pet|her servants]].

* Anna Maria from ''[[Blood+|Blood Plus]]'' is a poster girl for this trope, despite not having a very large part in the series. A [[Rich Bitch]] complete with [[Princess Curls]], her own posse of female followers, and being unreasonably rude and bullying. Naturally, she gets a slap to the face when [[Prince Charming|Solomon]] invites Saya to dance instead of her.

* Kafuko from ''[[Space Pirate Mito]]'', complete with a [[Girl Posse]], [[Rich Bitch|a sense of entitlement]], and [[Tsundere|a not-so-secret crush]] on the protagonist.

Line 287:

* ''[[Raising Hope]]'': Virginia's cousin Delilah is an Alpha Bitch who never grew out of it.

* Sadie in ''Awkward''

* Lexi Reed on [[~~ANT~~ Farm]], though she's gradually become [[Lovable Alpha Bitch|more likeable]].

* Lexi Reed on [[A.N.T. Farm]], though she's gradually become [[Lovable Alpha Bitch|more likeable]].

* Abigail Armstrong or "Abby" of the Australian produced TV series ''Dance Academy'' is a highly competitive ballerina that will verbally assail any other student that she sees a threat to her goals sometimes outright sabotaging theirs. Despite all of this the other lead characters still put up with her in a somewhat friendly manner which softens Abigail's harsh personality very slightly. One of the leading male characters has an unconditional crush on Abby. No matter how she treats him he still seems to be in love with the alpha bitch. Abigail considers the other lead females to be her "Frienemies".

* In ''[[The Finder]]'' Willa went to a beach party with a bunch of rich kids. The girls there in one exchange fit this trope and [[Girl Posse]] to a T, being catty and snobbish to Willa's more down to earth style of dress. ...Willa then ''borrowed'' the Alpha's car on her way out of there.

Line 352:

* ''[[Sluggy Freelance]]'' briefly features [http://sluggy.com/daily.php?date=060929 Cindi]. Subverted when she wanders rather badly out of her league in [http://sluggy.com/daily.php?date=061005 this strip].

* Sayuri Morita in ''[[Red String]]''. However, her nastiness eventually comes back to bite her, and the main characters actually ''haven't'' gone and befriended her yet.

* Kharisma in ''[[Something Positive]]''. Oh ''Lawdy'' does she get her comeuppance. And then some.

* Kharisma in ''[[Something*Positive]]''. Oh ''Lawdy'' does she get her comeuppance. And then some.

* Felicia Laine in ''[[Ozy and Millie]]'' fits most of the characteristics of an Alpha Bitch, despite being in elementary school. In subversion of the trope, however, she's not stupid (as much as she acts the part), nor does she have any attraction to the strip's [[Jerk Jock]] Jeremy (indeed, they've never even met). Her infatuations are mostly directed at the members of boy band ''du jour''.

* You'd think that with cheerleaders as protagonists, ''[[The Wotch|Cheer!]]'' would be free of Libbies. [http://cheer.thewotch.com/index.php?date=20051001 You'd be wrong].

Line 388:

== Western Animation ==

* Bonnie Rockwaller on ''[[Kim Possible]]'', except she tries (repeatedly and in vain) to usurp the role of captain from the cheerleading heroine. Bonnie did eventually become cheerleading captain in one episode, and much to Kim's initial dismay, proves to be exceptionally competent and dedicated to the job (though she doesn't become any less bitchy). Kim eventually decides to not fight it, as she's sure Bonnie will get [[Wanting Is Better Than Having|sick and tired of all the hard work involved with being squad captain]]. And she's right; the next episode showing the cheerleading, [[Status Quo Is God|Kim's clearly back in charge]].

* Mandy from ''[[Totally Spies]]'' Extra points for being shallow.

* Mandy from ''[[Totally Spies!]]'' Extra points for being shallow.

* Tami from the sequel show ''[[The Amazing Spiez]]'' too, albeit [[Lovable Alpha Bitch|frequently more likeable]].

* Paulina from ''[[Danny Phantom]]''.

Line 408:

** Sandi Griffin, who is outright emotionally abusive even to the other members of her own clique (Stacy Rowe in particular). It isn't until the series' final season that her position of control is finally first slowly undermined by both Quinn starting to distance herself from the group and Stacy gaining a sense of self-confidence, and then finally lost when the other three members of the Fashion Club all agree to dissolve the group and she agrees last, as a face-saving measure. One of the potential futures shown at the end of the series (in place of the usual series of pictures) shows Sandi being a hostess and maintaining her queen bee attitude.

** And her ''mother'' is also as bad... given that household, it's a surprise her brothers weren't utter bitches.

* Trixie Tang of ''[[The Fairly ~~Odd Parents~~]]'' is rich and popular AND lusted after by everyone, including Timmy, the main character. However, in the episode The Boy Who Would Be Queen, a genderbended Timmy learns that there is another side to Trixie—a boyish side that likes comics and video games, which would shock all of the people who worship her. She says that all she wants for her birthday is a friend who understands this, but when Timmy arrives at her party and makes the offer, she saves face.<ref>It's possible that this side of her personality is hinted at in ''The Big Superhero Wish!'' and ''Wishology''. In both specials, she apparently enjoys being in action scenes</ref>

* Penelope Lang in ''[[Atomic Betty]]'', [[Asian Airhead|who coincidentally also looks Asian]]. Her two cohorts are a pair of sycophantic nerds.

* Tricia from ''[[~~Sixteen|~~6teen]]''.

* Tricia from ''[[6teen]]''.

* ''[[Total Drama Island]]''

** Heather has pulled this off quite well in a non-high-school setting.

Line 433:

* Nina Harker from ''[[Braceface]]''. Interesting, though, in that she and the protagonist, Sharon Spitz, where actually best friends when they were little. But a mishap with one of Nina's dolls that got its head popped off ended their friendship when she accused Sharon of being the culprit. So her bullying Sharon is more or less out of spite. They do somewhat reconcile as the series goes on. Especially by season 3 when {{spoiler|its revealed that Sharon was indeed innocent of the doll incident. Nina's cousin was the cause of that.}}

* Dawn from ''[[The Buzz on Maggie]]''.

* ''[[The Mighty B]]'''s Portia is the stuck-up, [[Valley Girl]], blonde Alpha Bitch, with front teeth that are even uglier than the main protagonist's. Her cousin and mother are even worse.

* ''[[The Mighty B!]]'''s Portia is the stuck-up, [[Valley Girl]], blonde Alpha Bitch, with front teeth that are even uglier than the main protagonist's. Her cousin and mother are even worse.

* ''[[Batman Beyond]]'' has two: Blade, who doubles as [[Rich Bitch]], and Chelsea, who [[Lovable Alpha Bitch|is usually alot more sympathetic]].

* ''[[Kick Buttowski]]'' has Kendall Perkins, a strange and unique case of an Alpha Bitch who likes going to school and learning.
