Most Triumphant Example (Sugar Wiki)/A
This is simply what you think is the (not some of the, the) best example of any trope (an objective trope, not subjective, since this already is subjective). The "Crowning Example" if you will.
There could be several reasons you think an example is the best.
- You thinks it's the best in terms of illustrating the trope.
- You think it's the most well done.
- It's your favorite play in that trope.
- You just really like the source material.
Oh, several things before you list examples:
- Each troper gets one example per trope, no more.
- Don't go "no, this is," or phrases like that. This is about our own personal favorites.

Please list tropes alphabetically.
- Abandon Shipping:
- Abhorrent Admirer
- Wendy Oldbag. "Edgey-poooo!" ~ vicnog User:Eva Unit 01
- Leena Hyena, herself based on the stereotypical Abhorrent Admirers from The Golden Age of Animation, also the former Trope Namer. ~ Surenity
- Big Ethel from Archie. Has to be one of the, if not the longest running example of this trope, and having her pursue Jughead (who doesn't like girls at all) just makes it better. ~ Gibberingtroper
- Abridged Series
- MasakoX and Vegeta3986's Naruto the Abridged Series, which 25 episodes covered 101 episodes of the actual series. (It's not as well executed as Little Kuriboh's series but most definitely surpasses its predecessor when it comes to defining the word "abridged") ~ Metal Shadow X
- TeamFourStar's Dragon Ball Z Abridged, simply because it's Reginald Cuftbert
- Kaiser Neko's Lupin III Abridged. Too Good to Last indeed ~ Truteal
- Yu-Gi-Oh the Abridged Series: It did sort of start the trend and still stands at the top with everyone else. ~ One Pixel Jump Man, Man Without A Body, Soundwave Superior, The Curious Fan, Zfish 9, Deeman 45
- Biographies, in a meta sort of way. ~ Quackor The Fowl
- Negima: The Abridged Series, just to be different. Well, also because I nearly choked to death on oxygen while watching it. ~ guyy
- Absurdly High Stakes Game
- Yu-Gi-Oh! And you know what? I wouldn't have it any other way. ~Haldo, Reginald Cuftbert
- Absurdly Powerful Student Council
- The Best Student Council, natch. ~ Willy Four Eyes
- The Student President in Chrome Shelled Regios controlled the entire city ~ Sheaman 3773
- The Student Council from Persona 3 deserves a nomination, especially since the Student Council President's family owns the school (and just about everything else on Tatsumi Port Island.) ~ Aspie
- The Ashford Student Council. ~ Marlee Cross
- We will bring revolution to the world I can't believe no one has mentioned them yet. ~Rosebrook
- The First Student Council President in Asura Cryin has the power to sentence students to death. And hunt demons with giant robots. ~Murgatroyd
- Absurdly Sharp Blade
- Death's Scythe in Discworld, especially in Reaper Man. ~ Highwind, Man Without A Body, Reginald Cuftbert
- The Subtle Knife. So sharp it cuts through things like steel, atomic particles, and the fabric between dimensions, among other things. ~ Selryam, Zfish 9, Dark Hunter
- Bleach. They cut entire buildings in two with those things on a regular basis. ~ Carla
- The Keyblade, it cuts entire fucking BUILDINGS. User:Eva Unit 01

- In Kung Fu Panda, there is a sword that can cut you by you merely looking at it. -- The Thnikkaman
- Absurdly Spacious Sewer
- Freedom Fighters. The main rebel base for the first half of the game is in a part of the sewer with a thirty foot high ceiling, and the tunnels leading to it are big enough for rafts that can hold supplies, ammunition, and twelve people comfortably. ~ Raan
- The Garamscythe Waterway, Final Fantasy XII. So big, you even find an esper down there. -- Cuchulainn, User:Eva Unit 01
- Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. The sewer was big enough to stage major fight scenes down there, plus the water down there was very clean-perhaps because Nobody Poops-and was as wide and deep as a river. wrybread
- Mirrors Edge. They are absolutely massive, filled with more than enough space to do massive trick jumps all over. Admittedly it was justified as being the main sewer system for a massive city, but still. Mack
- Abusive Alien Parents
- Vriska's lusus, a.k.a. Spidermom. She forced her charge into becoming a serial killer. And if Vriska hadn't brought her bodies, her lusus would've eaten her instead. ~CCIB

- Konata Izumi always enjoys Aya Hirano's concerts and she's also quite fond of Haruhi Suzumiya (The latter is true for both the English and Japanese dubs). ~ aNinjaWithAIDS
- (English dub only) Akira Kogami once thought, "you [Minoru Shiraishi] sound like a nerdy turtle." Gee, just who can she possibly be referring to? ~ aNinjaWithAIDS

- Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The original comics, compared to the marketing blitz of the late 80s-early 90s. ~ Gendoikari 1
- The Thing. It's hard enough to remember that it's a remake. Remembering the original short story is harder yet. ~ Man Without A Body
- Little Nemo in Slumberland. It didn't start out as an NES game or a little known anime movie. It was originally a comic from the 1900's. And it's not about a fish. ~ Surenity
- Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha. Its popularity is massive, but good luck finding anything on Triangle Heart 3 ~sweet songs forever~. ~ Aya Reiko, @Eva Unit 01
- The Wizard of Oz. ~ Ziggy Zag
- The Princess Bride. How many people do you know who are even remotely aware it was originally a novel? ~ Deeman 45
- The book-reading scenes in the movie might have been a clue...but apparently they weren't.
- Fullmetal Alchemist. For the majority of the last decade, at least. During that time, the first anime series' popularity was massive (and for good reason), so much so that it was much more well-known in the United States than the also amazing manga it was partially based on. The Brotherhood adaptation has... changed things, however.
- Psycho. There was a BOOK? ~ Marlee Cross
- Yu-Gi-Oh!. It's a trading card game based off an anime based off of a manga, yet criticisms will be made on how the second doesn't follow the direct rules of the first (that is, the criticisms that don't just insult the series in general). Not the Most Triumphant for the original source being erased from public knowledge completely, but the winner for the manga having been extremely popular...yet those from every walk of culture still think the true "canon" of the series come from the cards. ~ Shadow Stained Sky
- How to Train Your Dragon ~ Old Man Ho Oh

- 2001: A Space Odyssey: the movie and Clarke's companion novel.
- Or how about The Lord of the Rings? The six Appendices at the end are only the start of a Lensman-like cascade of Manuals Behind The Manual, thanks to Christopher Tolkien's gradual editing and releasing of his father's manuscripts. ~ Scud East, Man Without A Body
- Activision's games for the Atari 2600 ~ Ziggy Zag
- Final Fantasy VII is a strange example. Most of the (incredibly complicated) backstory was either really ambiguous or left out entirely, and none of the omissions were explained properly until a decade after the original game was released. So, for anyone who hadn't played the original game in 1997 got to experience the FFVII universe in the correct order, making them wonder why anyone would ever have been confused by the game when they finally get around to playing it only after working their way through the rest of the compilation. All explained in the manual(s)...eventually. ~ Tropers/Kelly, User:Eva Unit 01

- Guardian's Crusade, in addition to making frequent and heavy usage of this trope, has one specific example which is incredibly played with. Heroic Mime Knight assigned to go collect an emerald guarded by a fierce monster from a rather greedy mayor; as he needs the emerald to pay for the ticket with which he'll set sail over the sea, he agrees to get the gem and return. After a series of sidequests during which he meets a knight, a wizard, and a witch who Knight trails behind right until they get to the boss, at which point just in front of them the traveling party defeats the monster effortlessly and takes the emerald. The party's Exposition Fairy Nehani is rightfully a bit upset, and exclaims that now they'll have to find something else to bribe the mayor with. The reason this becomes a Most Triumphant Example despite looking completely different at first is that while Knight's party's goals are basically only to get the gemstone and get the ticket to travel across the ocean and the knight does not have those goals (he is instead trying to stop Karmine, an opponent you yourself have to defeat later on), his actions dovetail nicely with yours later on. In addition, if you inspect the beast after the other party has defeated it you'll be able to go into a rather weak Bonus Boss which will earn you the best shield you can get at that point in the game. The options make the trope so confusing in terms of how it's played with that it could technically be Zig Zagged, Subverted, Justified, and Discussed, not to mention the tons of other times the trope constantly comes into play in Guardian's Crusade. ~ Gryzalb

- He has fabulous mecha, which has fabulous sparkly weapons and pink controls, which he controls with the legs crossed like a woman.
- Has a fabulous clothes both as an student and as Zero, and becomes even more fabulous when he becomes emperor.
- He geassed his sister bodyguard to View him as a fabulous Princess. He could have easily ordered follow my commands.
- There's lots of homolust with his best friend, they both obsess over each other, and he ends up as his knight. And probably his lover too, given the subtext. Even those who don't like yaoi accept that their relationship is not a normal one (As opposed to 2 normal men), to say the least.
- No romantic interest in any girl at all. C.C. is the closest to this and Word of God mentions that their relationship was purely fraternal.
- Has no physical condition at all, but he's very skilled at cooking and choosing clothes.
- His hand mannerisms are very fabulous, bordering on Camp Gay

- Yu Yevon. It's impossible to get a game over by the time you reach him, since all your characters have permanent Auto-Life. ~ The Wanderer, User:Eva Unit 01
- The Gray Prince, the champion of the Arena in Oblivion IV. There's so much build-up that when he refuses to fight you and just lets you kill him, it's pretty disappointing. Not only that, but after you do kill him, everyone acts as though you've just completed an impossible task. ~ Tropers/Kelly
- The Crimson King -Ziggy Zag
- Killer Croc from Arkham Asylum ~ Froody 42
- General Scales from Star Fox Adventures. The game won't stop emphasizing what an evil guy this dinosaur is. You finally get to the fight against him...and he's told to give back the Krozoa Spirit that he has. He's then killed when it leaves his body. And then you have to fight fucking Andross. It wasn't even implied that he would show up. At ALL. ~ Earthbound God

- A Death Note will kill anyone just by writing their name in it. Just ask Light Yagami. -darkforce392
- Swordfish. The film opens with a five minute monologue about how softcore Hollywood villains tend to be, and questions what would happen if a hostage-taker really wanted to get away with it. The same character then proceeds to unapologetically kill a hostage when SWAT tries to rescue her. Only, he doesn't just kill her, he blows her up, spraying the surrounding street with 15 pounds of stainless steel ball bearings. Not only is it a Crowning Moment of Awesome for both the character and the movie itself (and this happens in the first 10 minutes), and a gigantic Take That to every traditional Hollywood villain, it also shows that the film is not afraid to ignore the rules, and that all bets are off. ~ I Just Wanna Be God

- "These are just a few of the images we've recorded. And you can see, it wasn't what we thought. There's been no war here and no terraforming event. The environment is stable. It's the Pax. The G-23 Paxilon Hydrochlorate that we added to the air processors. It was supposed to calm the population, weed out aggression. Well, it works. The people here stopped fighting. And then they stopped everything else. They stopped going to work, they stopped breeding, talking, eating. There's 30 million people here, and they all just let themselves die. I have to be quick! About a tenth of a percent of the population had the opposite reaction to the Pax. Their aggressor response increased beyond madness. They have become… Well, they've killed most of us. And not just killed… they've done things… I won't live to report this, but people have to know. We meant it for the best… to make people safer." ~ I Just Wanna Be God, User:Eva Unit 01

- "I'll see you in another life, brutha," and its variations. As far back as season one (with Nadia's note) we were seeing these bizarre, seemingly contextless assurances of people seeing other people in another life, and even with all those persistent theories of the whole show being the afterlife, the writers were so skillful that they still made it a surprise to everyone that it's the flash-sideways that's the afterlife, fulfilling this series-long Foreshadowing. And this was the most endlessly scrutinized and theorized-about show ever. How do you top that?? ~ Ziggy Zag

- Chief Miles O'Brian ~ wixo
- The Soul Reapers, the Visored, the Arrancar...just take your pick from any of the characters who get introduced in a new arc in Bleach. To put it in perspective: there are four character pages on this website for that manga, three of them for all the characters who aren't the five the series started off with. And they're all long. Only the Arrancar (and two traitor Captains) have died, so fully expect everyone else to come back when Ichigo's powers come back. - afteriwake
- Star Wars: "Look Sir, Droids!" got his own EU story and an entry into the original Essential Guide to Characters. Aura Sing started out as the white bald chick watching the podrace in Episode I. All the scum and villainy hanging out in Jabba's Palace? Yep, they've all got names and their own fleshed out backstories, too. And that doesn't even begin to scratch the surface. ~ Space Jawa

- Haruhi Suzumiya. Drawing giant alien chalk symbols, smashing Kyon's head into a chair so she can scream her new idea at him in the middle of class, joining and quitting every club in the school before making her own club of people to demand constant attention from, and generally being absurdly bossy and hyperactive at all times; the sky's the limit!

It was especially galling since the very next episode was entirely centred around shipping.
- Author's Saving Throw
- The Dark Prince in Prince of Persia: The Two Thrones. Not only did they abandon the obnoxiously Darker and Edgier tone of Warrior Within, they also explained why the Prince was voiced by someone else in said game, not to mention his Jerkass character derailment -- and they did all this in-universe, with both actors voicing the character in The Two Thrones. ~ Gfrequency
