Courage the Cowardly Dog/Characters: Difference between revisions

The Courage series tend to not have many Sympathetic characters except for Muriel and Courage himself (And some minor monsters that have a sad backstory). Most characters are either major [[Jerkass]]es, legitimately scary, or just rather stupid.

 

Serves as the titular character who is a pink and black spotted dog (of no known specific breed) who saves his owners Muriel and Eustace from all the creatures. No matter if they're Nightmare Fuel, [[Uncanny Valley]], or just plain weird.

 

* [[Dogs Are Dumb]]: Inverted. Courage is one of the smartest characters in the show.

* [[Evil-Detecting Dog]]

* [[Gag Nose]]: With a zigzag on it.

* [[Genre Savvy]]: He KNOWS when something's wrong.

* [[Wild Take]]: Frequently.

 

A sweet old lady of Scottish descent who found Courage abandoned by an alley and took him home. She is constantly in danger from the things that come to Nowhere but she always smiles at some point during the episode. And she loves Eustace despite his [[Jerkass]] personality. She also loves using vinegar in ''all'' of her cooking, and in an early episode picked up playing the sitar and also has a fondness for tea.

 

* [[Blind Without'Em]]: Shown in "Muriel Meets Her Match".

* [[Captain Oblivious]]

* [[The Ditz]]: Although she means well, she seems to not be that very smart and never seems to expect all the horrible things that head toward their house.

* [[Fat Girl]]

* [[Friend to All Living Things]]

* [[Funny Afro]]

* [[Genre Blind]]

* [[Housewife]]

* [[Literal Metaphor]] [[Like an Old Married Couple|Old Couple]]: With Eustace. Probably one of the only notable ones of Western Animation

* [[Mama Bear]]

* [[Trrrilling Rrrs]]: Does this sometimes.

 

A self-proclaimed farmer that tends to be grumpy and isn't really a nice guy to anyone. He thinks he can fix anything and grow anything but this is never the case. He also has a greed for money. Although early on with no backstory whatsoever he seems to deserve what happens to him in each of the episodes when you learn he didn't have that great of a childhood with a non-loving mom and a always better Big Brother he turns into more a [[Jerkass Woobie]] and depending who you are you may actually feel sorry for the guy.

 

* [[Freudian Excuse]]: And how. His mother is much worse than he is and his brother was [[The Ace]] and rubbed it in his face his entire life (his brother's entire life that is). The end of "The Curse Of Shirley" has his 'true self' shown to him by a mirror (well it was broken but considering it was supposedly magic). What was it? {{spoiler|[[Tear Jerker|A sad little boy]]}}. No wonder he's so screwed up.

* [[Get Rich Quick Scheme]]: Tries this many times, never works out for him.

* [[Greed]]: Many episodes have him obtaining (only to lose it later), wanting, or basically bathing in money he found.

* [[Grumpy Bear]]

* [[Opaque Lenses]]

* [[Personal Raincloud]]: In "Curse Of Shirley".

* [[Screw Politeness, I'm a Senior!]]

* [[Small Name, Big Ego]]: "I'm a farmer! FARMER, FARMER, FARMER!"

* [[Villainous Glutton]]: A rare skinny example.

 

A [[Jerkass]] helper who Courage commonly goes to for advice on stopping the [[Big Bad]] of the episode. His advice for the most part works well, but his insults and sarcastic vibes gets contempt from Courage.

 

* [[A.I. Is a Crapshoot]]

* [[Anti-Hero]]: [[Sliding Scale of Anti-Heroes|Type 2]].

** [[Snarky Inanimate Object]]

* [[Everything's Better with Bob]]: 2+5=BOB

* [[Jerk with a Heart of Gold]]: As the end of his episode 'Mega Muriel The Magnificent' would suggest.

* [[Magical Database]]: Seems to have everything to know on how to help Courage defeat the monsters that invade their home.

* [[Smug Snake]]: A heroic example.

 

 

* [[All There in the Script]]: He's never referred to by name, though his name is known.

* [[Amusing Injuries]]: One of numerous ways in which the show punishes him for how much of a douche he is.

* [[Asian and Nerdy]]

* [[Asian Drivers]]: Especially when he parks his car all the way across an open road in "Hothead".

* [[Asian Rudeness]]

* [[A Day in the Limelight]]: "Courage vs. Mecha Courage", "Courage The Fly", and "Squatting Tiger, Hidden Dog".

* [[Annoying Laugh]]

* [[Asshole Victim]]: Good luck finding a ''[[Courage the Cowardly Dog]]'' character who deserves getting his/her car blown up (and being hit by a truck, and being publicly humiliated in his own home country, and being crushed by a giant starfish, and [[Arson, Murder, and Jaywalking|only appearing for about five seconds in most of his episodes]]) more than this guy...

* [[Big Fancy House]]: He uses [[It's All About Me|the TV show that he stars in]] to show off his beautiful new mansion in "Campsite Of Terror".

* [[Brainy Brunette]]

* [[The Chew Toy]]: Somewhat. What makes his appearances entertaining to watch (despite him being an awful person) is the fact that he usually gets just enough time to say his [[Catch Phrase|catchphrase]] and then suffer some kind of either cartoony or outright lethal injury.

* [[Colony Drop]]: He attempts to use this tactic on Courage's house in "Courage The Fly".

* [[Cool Car]]: His appears to be a red vintage Corvette...now if only he would stop [[Running Gag|wrecking it]].

* [[Cool Shades]]: His version of Eustace's [[Sinister Shades]].

* [[Freeze-Frame Bonus]]: Ma Bagge's and the Dancing Rats' reactions to [[Watch Where You're Going|his]] [[You Fool!|catchphrase]] in "Scuba-Scuba Doo" and "The Nutcracker"; Ma attempts to attack him with her bare hands, while the Rats [[Death Glare|angrily glare]] at him.

** Also, he and the Evil Empress briefly appear on Courage's television during Season 4's intro.

* [[Geek Physiques]]: He has a downright-''horrifically'' skinny one, adding to his stereotypical Asian-ness.

* [[Genius Ditz]]: He may generally act like a '''complete''' idiot (especially when delivering his infamous [[Catch Phrase|catchphrase]]), but when it comes to science and engineering, he is '''absurdly''' talented to say the '''least'''.

* [[Human Sacrifice]]: In order to contact the magic silkworm that gives the Evil Empress her powers, Di Lung ends up having to remove the bones of someone truly innocent (in other words, Muriel)...''using chopsticks''.

* [[Hypocritical Humor]]: Despite [[Watch Where You're Going|his]] [[You Fool!|catchphrase]], [[Never My Fault|he's just as likely to be the one not paying attention]], [[I Was Just Passing Through|and/or be saying it to someone who didn't really have a choice in the matter]]. Sometimes, he even puts himself in harm’s way; for example, one time he stood in the middle of the street before then getting hit by a truck. [[Jerkass Has a Point|Even Eustace sort of points out how incredibly hypocritical Di Lung's catchphrase often is]] by [[Borrowed Catchphrase|using it himself]] in the episode "Courage In The Big Stinkin' City", and in the episode "The Nutcracker", the rats whose glue trap he has somehow gotten himself stuck in even give him [[Death Glare|Death Glares]] in response to hearing him yell the phrase at Courage while being stuck in said glue trap. Hell, Ma Bagge nearly '''attacks''' him for how hypocritical his "Scuba Scuba Doo" usage of said phrase (telling her not to swim in the tidal wave that he is surfing in) is.

* [[Insufferable Genius]]

* [[It's All About Me]]: To the point where [[Show Within a Show|he even made his own television show about himself]].

* [[Jerkass]]: Arguably the biggest one in the entire series, to the point where he even makes Eustace look like a saint at times.

* [[Jerkass Has a Point]]: On the rare occasions where he says his catchphrase [[Not Me This Time|and wasn't in the way first]]. Not to imply that this will change the result...

* [[Laughing Mad]]: His [[Annoying Laugh]] turns into this whenever he's doing it for extremely sadistic reasons.

* [[Lean and Mean]]

* [[Narcissist]]: Revealed when [[Hypocritical Humor|"Eustace"]] knocks his photos of himself out of his hands in "Cabaret Courage"; heavily implied when he calls himself "[[Title Drop|perfect]]" while sitting on an Eiffel Tower replica in "Perfect".

* [[Nightmare Fetishist]]: Heavily implied by how ridiculously excited he gets over [[Human Sacrifice|getting to yank Muriel's bones out]] (not to mention how much he actually ''does'', in fact, enjoy doing it) in "Squatting Tiger, Hidden Dog".

* [[No Name Given]]: See [[All There in the Script]] above.

* [[Noodle People]]

* [[Rich Bitch|Rich Bastard]]: He is basically a disgustingly rich version of Eustace, complete with living in a [[Big Fancy House]].

* [[Royal Brat]]: Heavily implied by the fact that the [[Polar Opposite Twins|Good and Evil Empresses]] of China are his aunts.

* [[Show Within a Show]]: He makes one of these [[It's All About Me|about himself]] so that he can steal money from his fans.

* [[Sinister Shades]]

* [[Small Name, Big Ego]]

* [[Smarter Than You Look|Smarter Then He Looks]]: He's actually quite smart when you think that he was able to build things like Mecha-Courage or make Magic Chemicals (Even if at first he failed at making what he wanted: A Water Buffalo). He was also a former student of the "Perfect" Teacher.

* [[Smug Snake]]: As downright-impossibly talented as Di Lung is, his talent is still utterly '''dwarfed''' by his ego.

* [[Sunglasses At Night]]: He literally does this in "Fishy Business", "The Nutcracker", and "Cabaret Courage".

* [[Thin Chin of Sin]]: Possibly his version of Eustace's [[Lantern Jaw of Justice|Lantern Jaw of Injustice]].

* [[You Fool!]]

 

 

* [[Absent-Minded Professor]]

* [[Morally-Ambiguous Doctorate]]

* [[The Voiceless]]

 

A tall, skinny Anthromorphic cat that is in many episode implied to have several victims like in the motel and his island. He seems to have great skill at games such as Handball, and an expert at staring contests. He is probably the first villian to appear that can be Nightmare Fuel inducing considering his debut is the first episode after the Chicken from Outer Space pilot kinda leaves it open to what the show will get through from the start.

A creature that moves in a similar to [[Tremors]] and mainly preys on rabbits. But if it bites a human or perhaps other creatures that survive it's bite into a weremole themselves.

She ends up crashing onto Earth as the last of her kind... and getting progressively sicker. Unfortunately, the government discovers her and wants possession of her- right when she's pregnant with babies. {{spoiler|Courage saves the squid's babies... but the mommy still passes away, turning into a field of flowers, while her eggs hatch into newborns, fly off into space, and give birth to new stars.}}

 

* [[Space Whale]]: A nasty enemy of these creatures.

 

The son(/s) of the villain from the pilot of the series.

Quite possibly the worst villain of the entire series, he stands out as Courage's ''biggest'' nightmare. Why? This screw-loose "vet" came up with a horrible idea back when Courage was a puppy- abduct dogs and rocket them off to the moon to make them into super breeds of space dogs. Tragically... {{spoiler|He captured Courage's beloved mom and dad, and Courage himself, with plans to send them into space. Although Courage's parents came to the rescue, the doctor sealed them up in a rocket with a one-way trip to the moon in store. Courage was too terrified by this predicament to do anything but escape harm through a garbage chute- only to watch his parents be catapulted into space- in tears. Fortunately, a younger Muriel discovered the young pup in the dumpster and gave him a happy home.}} Many years later, the maniac doctor, albeit considerably older and balder, still continues his twisted plans... but now Muriel and Eustace get trapped in a rocket themselves. {{spoiler|But this time, Courage refuses to stand by and watch his family be taken from him, freeing the two of them. In the struggle, the evil vet gets himself locked inside his own rocket and propelled to the moon... where every dog he victimized is waiting for him- including Courage's decidedly furious parents.}}

Nothing is much known about the character itself, but it's one off appearance in "Big Stinkin' City" is one of those sights a Courage fan never forgets. From the back it looks like a normal girl playing Violin (Though even this is considered Uncanny Valley considering everything else around is animated). But when it turns around it has a scary looking claymation face that brings the Uncanny Valley [[Up to Eleven]] as there's realistic looks, animated background, and claymation all in one spot. Though it seems that the girl's face is not always like that, as she appears normal on a television that Eustace is watching later in the episode.

A water-dwelling dragon that Courage and Muriel meet towards the end of the episode "Food Of The Dragon". He seems scary at first, but turns out to be very friendly. {{spoiler|He's William's long-lost brother.}}

 

* [[Trademark Favorite Food]]: Fish.

 

A blue... ''thing'' that appears in the first of Courage's nightmares in "Perfect". Probably [[Nightmare Fuel|one of the series' scariest things, if not the scariest]], joining the ranks of King Ramses and the Harvest Moon Spirit in terms of CGI abominations. It appears to be a warped trumpet with a [[Uncanny Valley|horrible human face stuck on it]], or possibly a deformed fetus with a horrible human face stuck on it.

Currently serves as the image for the series' [[Nightmare Fuel]] page.

* [[The Spook]]

 

A bizarre, blue-scaled, red-finned, green-eyed fish that appears in the bathtub to tell Courage that it's alright to be imperfect and accept his flaws as what makes him unique and beautiful.
