In a series dealing with a character staying in apartment-style housing, a landlord is a common sight. The job description entails what one would expect: The upkeep of the building and grounds. However, while landlords are a diverse bunch visually, there is one hard and fast rule: Make them entertaining, or at the very least, intriguing.

== [[Anime]] and [[Manga]] ==
* The archetypal example is Otonashi Kyoko from [[Rumiko Takahashi|Takahashi Rumiko's]] ''[[Maison Ikkoku]]''.
Line 71 ⟶ 69:
** Who, curiously, is implied to have been summoned by the apartment rather than being the owner proper; to start with, there ''was'' no landlord, but someone commented on this deficiency and the maybe-sentient apartment complex obliged.
* The main characters from ''[[Absurd Notions]]'' eventually had Dr Ümlaut, the least caring professor ever, assigned as their landlord. He was also the least caring Landlord ever, not caring what the tenants did with their apartment.
 
== [[Western Animation]] ==
* ''[[Justice League]]'', "Hearts and Minds"; Despite being the Fasted Man Alive and a super-hero who has tussled with Darkseid and the Injustice League, the Flash is very ill-equipped to deal with John's psycho landlady when they need to break into John's apartment to find his Green Lantern power battery.
