Five-Bad Band/Anime: Difference between revisions

** [[The Big Bad]] & [[Evil Genius]] - [[Manipulative Bastard|Rau]] [[The Chessmaster|Le]] [[Woobie, Destroyer of Worlds|Creuset]]: He not only leads the team, but is [[The Man Behind the Man]] to pretty much everyone in show.

** [[The Dragon]] - [[The Cynic|Athrun]] [[The Rival|Zala]]: [[The Hero]]'s ex-best friend, the second-in-command of the team, and the best pilot after Le Creuset himself.

** [[The Dark Chick]] - [[Nice Guy|Nicol]] [[The Heart|Amalfi]]: Probably the least capable pilot, Nicol makes up for it via technological advantages, including a cloaking device. Normally he'd be [[The Evil Genius]], but on this team, his smarts make him stand out as much or more than his nice guy personality.

** [[Sacrificial Lamb]] - Rusty Mackenzie, Miguel Aiman

** [[The Big Bad]] - [[Complete Monster|Lord Djibril]]: Azrael's successor, Djibril's the [[Diabolical Mastermind]] and [[Card-Carrying Villain]] behind this incarnation of the Earth Sphere Alliance.

** [[The Dragon]] and [[Team Dad]] - [[Criminal Amnesiac|Neo]] [[Manipulative Bastard|Roanoke]]: Djibril's right-hand man, Neo leads the Phantom Pain strike team and keeps the [[Tyke Bomb|Extended]] in line, while serving as the Earth Forces' best field commander and a capable mobile suit pilot to boot. {{spoiler|He eventually [[Heel Face Turn|Heel Face Turns]]}}.

** [[The Brute]] - [[Axe Crazy|Auel Neider]]: Agressive, violent, and (at least initially) the most unstable of the Extended trio, Auel serves as muscle and little more.

** [[The Dark Chick]] - [[Cloudcuckoolander|Stella Louissier]]: The only female member of the Extended trio, Stella's further separated from her teammates by being an [[Psychopathic Manchild|emotionally-retarded]] ditz with a crush on one of their opponents, and a genuine [[Tragic Villain]].

* ''[[Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha|Lyrical Nanoha Force]]'' - The Huckebein Family

** [[The Big Bad]] - Curren (Undisputable leader of the group and apparently their most powerfull member. Also the only member with "Huckebein" as her true last name).

** [[The Evil Genius]] - Fortis (Seems to be the "brains" of the group and Curren's second in command of sorts when she's absent. Also have a calmer and more affable attitude than most of his comrades save Curren).

** [[The Brute]] - Either [[Psycho for Hire|Veyron]] (along with some shades of [[Enigmatic Minion]]) or [[The Quiet One|Deville]] (who seems to be the most physically stronger member of the team and seems to be sort of a boosted [[Mighty Glacier]] in combat).

 

* The Black Cat Pirates:

** [[The Dragon]] - [[Hypno Fool|Jango]] (Kuro's First Mate)

** [[The Brute]] - [[Dumb Muscle|Buchi]] (The Larger Brother)

* [[One Piece (Manga)|One Piece]]'s HQ-ranked Marines (primarily during the Marineford arc):

** [[Big Bad]] - [[The Chessmaster|Fleet Admiral Sengoku]], who doubles as a second [[Evil Genius]]

** [[Evil Genius]] - [[The Strategist|Vice Admiral Tsuru]], seemingly the highest ranked Vice Admiral, but not much for fighting

** [[The Brute]] - [[Light'Em Up|Admiral Kizaru]], just as formidable as the other admirals but quite a [[Cloudcuckoolander]], and is incredibly destructive.

* ''[[Real Bout High School]]''

** [[Big Bad|The Big Bad]] - G (an orphan who lost everything, from his humanity to his name, being [[Training From Hell|trained to kill]] by a high-class paranoiac. Don't hit him too hard, or he'll go [[One-Winged Angel]] on you.) (Though [[Lady of War|Aoi Asahina]], [[The Lancer]] to Ryoko Mitsurugi's [[The Hero|Heroine]] and G's [[Unlucky Childhood Friend]], [["I Know You're in There Somewhere" Fight|believes he's still out there]]...)

** [[Evil Genius|The Evil Genius]] - G's Protege (who isn't named in the manga. He is, however, a computer expert with intelligently gimmicked weaponry.)

** [[The Brute]] - Taiho Hashiba (a huge boxer with something to prove. Because [[Defeat Means Friendship]], he got together with [[The Big Guy]] Megumi Momoi after she beat him.)

** Raijinshu arc

*** [[Big Bad]]: {{spoiler|Laxus Dreyar}}

*** [[The Brute]]: [[Beam Spam|Bixlow]]

*** [[Dark Chick]]: [[Evil Eye|Evergreen]]

** [[The Evil Genius]]: [[Complete Monster|Riku]] [[Mad Bomber|Ousei]], a complete [[The Sociopath|sociopath]] with a keen intellect and an obsession with imagination, who is always cooking up new schemes to prove the superiority of his mind, in his own twisted way.

** [[The Brute]]: [[Blood Knight|Takuro]] [[Jerkass|Sawatari]], [[Husky Russie|Demitri]] [[Fashion Victim Villain|Magarov]] and [[Psycho Electro|Soubi]] [[Fallen Hero|Nakajima]] all share this role. None of them is particularly stupid, but they tend to take the direct approach to fighting.

* Tokyo Magika from [[Higurashi no Naku Koro Ni]] Kira Episode 2:

** [[Big Bad]]: Nomura
