Line 7:
* And ''usually'' has at least one example of that extreme.
 
[[Bonus Points]] if the [['''Logical Extreme]]''' is a trope in and of itself.
 
Note that sometimes a trope can have more than one [['''Logical Extreme]]''' that fit the trope in different ways. For example, the [[Logical Extreme|'''Logical Extremes]]''' of [[Reclusive Artist]] include artists whose identities are unknown and artists whose ''whereabouts'' are unknown.
 
For obvious reasons, this cannot be used on [[HomeYour Page/YMMVMileage May Vary|YMMV]] items.
 
Compare [[Exaggerated Trope]], which is the "''Il''logical Extreme".
{{examples|Examples:}}
* [[Band of Relatives]]: ''Everyone'' in the band is related.
* [[Broke the Rating Scale]]: A reviewer refuses to assign a rating at all. There are a number of examples of that on the trope page, often when the reviewer finds the work downright repulsive or otherwise not worthy of a rating.
* [[Cast of Snowflakes]]: [[Loads and Loads of Characters]] given intricate and distinct tropes that separate each one of them, sometimes doubling as [[Doing It for Thethe Art]]. Well-known examples include ''[[Touhou]]'' and ''[[Monster (Animemanga)|Monster]]''.
* [[A Child Shall Lead Them]]:
** It would ''seem'' to be a monarch crowned at birth, which has happened (the most recent example is [http://en.[wikipedia.org/wiki/Alfonso_XIII_of_Spain:Alfonso XIII of Spain|King Alfonso XIII of Spain]]). However, the Sassanid Empire set the [['''Logical Extreme]]''' to ''in utero'' coronations; [http://en.[wikipedia.org/wiki/Shapur_II:Shapur II|King Shapur II]] is the only monarch known to be crowned ''before he was born'' (the crown was placed on his mother's belly).
** In ''[[Star Wars]]'', Naboo takes it to a different extreme by making all their rulers teenagers (they ''retire'' at twenty).
** [[Teenage Wasteland]] is where there are no adults to lead ''at all''.
* [[Conviction Byby Contradiction]]: [[Conviction Byby Counterfactual Clue]], when the convicting "evidence" is explained away by ''simply checking the facts''.
* [[Face of the Band]]: Fans think the name of the band is that of said face -- inface—in short, the musical version of [[I Am Not Shazam]].
* [[I Am the Band]]: An artist performs under [[A Good Name for Aa Rock Band]] and plays all instruments and writes all songs associated with that band him -- orhim—or herself. This is quite common.
* [[Impossibly Cool Clothes]]: ''Everyone'' has awesome clothes, and they fit for the environment. Example: ''[[The World Ends With You (Video Game)|The World Ends With You]]''.
* [[Knight Templar]]: Where the [[Moral Guardian]] will do ''[[Murder the Hypotenuse|anything]]'' to protect.
* [[Lampshade Hanging]]: [[Better Than a Bare Bulb]], where [[Lampshade Hanging]] becomes a central part of the work.
Line 38:
*** [[Manic Street Preachers|Richey James Edwards]] went missing in 1995 and was declared [[Legally Dead]] in 2008.
* [[Revolving Door Band]]: A band goes through entire lineups on a regular basis. Several groups (Menudo, the Oak Ridge Boys and the Blackwood Brothers) fit this description.
* [[Written in-In Infirmity]]: [[The Character Died Withwith Him]] (that is, the actor's not just sick, he or she is ''dead'').
