Line 1: {{trope}}{{Sugar Wiki}} 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. Line 10: Oh, and each troper gets one example per trope, no more. Also, don't go "no, this is," or phrases like that. This is about our own personal favorites. ---- == Please list tropes alphabetically. == * [[Babysitter From Hell]] [[Drowtales\|Syphile Val'Sarghress]] qualifies for no less than ''7'' of the bulleted points on the main page, but isn't played for laughs at all. She's really an example of just how bad someone forced to take care of a child can become. [[The Fairly ~~Odd Parents~~OddParents\|Vicky]] ** [[Calvin and Hobbes\|Rosalyn]] * [[Back ~~From~~from the Dead]] Your own team, in most [[Final Fantasy]] games. Special mention goes to [[Final Fantasy X]], where you don't even need to have come back to life to be back from the dead. [[Transformers\|Optimus Prime]]. Any incarnation of him. Line 22: [[The Order of the Stick\|Roy Greenhilt]] Gonna have to go with [[The Bible\|Jesus]] on this one. [[Battlestar Galactica ~~Reimagined~~(2004 TV series)\|Kara Thrace]] [[The Undertaker]] Virtually every character in [[Dragon Ball]] Line 31: [[Metroid\|Ridley]]. He's survived being blown up at least twice, having ancient artifacts [[Attack Its Weak Point\|attack his weak point]], falling down a 16,000 meter shaft, falling victim to [[The Corruption]] twice,<ref>Phazon and being infected by the X</ref> and of course, on ''Super Metroid'', he was killed... and then the planet his remains were on [[Earthshattering Kaboom\|was destroyed]]. [[Star Trek: The Original Series\|Spock]] [[~~Goldeneye~~GoldenEye (film)\|Janus]] Whistler in the ''[[Blade (film)\|Blade]]'' movies. We actually see him brought back to life at the beginning of the second movie, then killed again at the beginning of the third, making his previous resurrection seem completely pointless. -- Can I nominate the ''entire medium'' of [[Comic Books]]? Line 40: * [[Background Boss]] ''[[Yoshi's Island]]'', Baby Bowser. ''[[~~Earthbound~~EarthBound]]'', Giygas. The boss is literally the trippy background. -Flash Cutter * [[Badass]] [[Theodore Roosevelt]] Line 55: [[Real Life]] example. [[One-Man Army\|Simo Häyhä]]. [[The Life and Times of Scrooge McDuck\|Scrooge McDuck]] [[Mega Man Zero\|Z]][[Badass Long Hair\|e]][[Back ~~From~~from the Dead\|r]][[One-Man Army\|o]]. [[The Dresden Files\|Harry]][[Badass Longcoat\|Dres]][[Deadpan Snarker\|den]] [[Wolverine]] Line 79: [[Noir\|Kirika Yuumura]] [[The Chronicles of Narnia\|Reepicheep]] [[~~Magical Girl~~ Lyrical Nanoha\|Nanoha Takamachi]]. [[Kirby]] [[~~Magical Girl~~ Lyrical Nanoha\|Vita.]] ''Full fucking stop''. Also, [[Kaiji]] as a male example. [[Kingdom Hearts\|Mickey]] [[Epic Mickey\|Mouse]] [[World Destruction\|Toppi]]. A less-than-three-feet teddy bear. Line 129: [[Fullmetal Alchemist\|Edward EFFING Elric]] [[X-Men\|Beast]]- [[Soundwave Superior]] Farimir in [[The Lord of the Rings]] [[Team Fortress 2\|The Engineer]] [[Harry Potter (novel)\|Hermione Granger]] Line 146: We crave your hearts and your demise, By my black hand — The dead shall rise! }} [[Warhammer ~~40000~~40,000\|"I am the Hammer. I am the point of His sword. I am the tip of His spear. I am the gauntlet about His fist. I am His sword just as He is my armor. I am His wrath just as He is my zeal. I am the Hammer! He is my shield!"]] [[Tiberium Wars\|Yea verily, though I charge through the valley of the shadow of death, I shall fear no evil, for I am driving a house-sized mass of "fuck you."]] [[~~Blaz Blue~~BlazBlue\|"I am the white void...I am the cold steel...I am the just sword...With blade in hand shall I reap the sins of this world, and cleanse it in the fire of destruction! I am Haku-Men, the end has come! "]] * Seconded. [[Batman: The Animated Series\|"I am vengeance. I am the night..."]] Line 189: [[Doctor Who\|The Ponds]] * [[Badass Finger-Snap]] [[Harry Potter and ~~The~~the Methods of Rationality\|Harry]] is believed in universe to be able to alter reality with a fingersnap and frequntly appears to. [[Fullmetal Alchemist\|Roy Mustang,]] full stop. * [[Badass Grandpa]] Line 205: [[Star Wars\|Yoda]] [[One Piece\|Whitebeard]]. He's called the strongest man in the world for a reason. * Seconded by [[~~Tropers/~~User:Ninjadude 853\|Ninjadude 853]]! {{spoiler\|''Half the man's fucking face was ''''melted'''' off''}} and he '''''still kept fighting''''' [[One Piece\|Silvers Rayleigh]] going toe to toe with a Marine Admiral and {{spoiler\|swimming through the Calm Belt and killing a Sea King barehandedly.}} That's all. [[Doctor Who\|Wilfred Mott]]. Line 212: [[Naruto\|The Third Hokage]], and he's a literal grandpa [[Halo\|Avery J. Johnson]] [[Final Fantasy V\|Galuf]]: Grandpa. King. Dawn Warrior. So fiercely determined to take down Exdeath that he won't let a little thing such as '''0 HP'' stop him. '''Even when he's getting hit by a constant barrage of meteors.''' [[Harry Potter (novel)\|Professor Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore]] Puma Loco. But I guess that's to be expected from a semi-retired supervillain. Line 236: * [[Badass Moustache]] [[One Piece\|Whitebeard]] [https://web.archive.org/web/20140822175539/http://greenarrowarcher.tumblr.com/ Green Arrow] * [[Badass Normal]] Batman. Line 289: [[That Guy With The Glasses\|Santa Christ]] [[Earthworm Jim (animation)\|Santa Claus: Norse God of War]]. {{~~smallcaps~~small-caps\|[[~~Discworld/~~Hogfather\|Death]]}} * [[Bag of Spilling]] The whole of the [[Ratchet and Clank]] series, with rare exception there is absolutely no given explanation for how you lose all or almost all of your usually egregiously large arsenal between each game. Most of them make an attempt at explanation, but none of it really holds up when the exact same circumstance can take place later during gameplay and the weapons are kept. Can also be (in most cases) a shining example of [[Cutscene Incompetence]], especially in Deadlocked, where you are captured by a bare handful of the same robots that you will be destroying by the dozens later in the game, often with a single round of ammo from the Harbinger. Line 295: Samus Aran, ''[[Metroid]]'' series. -- * [[Bait and Switch Credits]] ** The [[Narutaru]] [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SIF5BLyh3Mk opening credits.] Upbeat, [[Ear Worm\|catchy]] song, adorable [[mon]]s, artwork that looks like it was made by second graders ''for'' second graders, opening for a show with mass-murder, [[Abusive Parents]], ''horrible'' [[Break the Cutie]], {{spoiler\|rape, (Twice!)}} [[Brother-Sister Incest\|implied incest,]] [[Cruel and Unusual Death\|Cruel and Unusual Deaths,]] [[~~Eldricth~~Eldritch Abomination\|Eldritch Abominations,]] etc. * [[Bait and Switch Tyrant]] Richard Woolsey as the new leader of [[Stargate Atlantis\|Atlantis]] in Season 5. Line 331: [[Team Fortress 2\|The Scout]] [[Doctor Who\|Ace]] [[MOTHER\|Ninten]] & [[~~Earthbound~~EarthBound\|Ness]] ** Al Capone from [[The Untouchables]] * [[Battleaxe Nurse]] Line 371: [[Mortal Kombat\|Kano]]'s heart rip fatality. ''Prideengen Toppa Gurren Lagann paved the countryside, this show vaporized the mountain that was originally there. [[Doom]]'s Realm667 beastiary having a lot of zombies armed with much stronger weapons such as the BFG and [[Game Mod\|mod-exclusive]] weapons that make that weapon look like a pea shooter such as, recently in the forums, the Devastator; (not to mention, zombies in tanks, hovercars, and [[Arson, Murder, and Jaywalking\|segways]]) there's even talk of a [[~~Theres~~There Is No Kill Like Overkill\|nuclear missile]] [[Oh Crap\|launcher zombie]]. "[[George Carlin\|They would take the guy, lay him on an altar, cut his chest open, pull his heart out, and hold it up in the air while it was still beating. You know what you call that? Theater.]]" -- * [[The Beautiful Elite]] Line 399: Exor, from ''Super Mario RPG''. That guy was several stories tall. [[Transformers\|Alternity Megatron's Tesseractal Swords]] are blades of infinite length. [[Beyond the Impossible\|"Physical space is not an obstruction."]] [[~~Magical Girl~~ Lyrical Nanoha\|Fate Testarossa]]'s Jet Zanbar Bardiche is the personal equivalent of the 00 Raiser's beam saber The one that takes the cake: [[Bleach\|Gin]]'s zanpakutou. It's a wakizashi, so technically speaking it's smaller than a katana—but then again, it ''stretches''. A ''lot''. {{spoiler\|Especially when in Bankai mode. 13 kilometers!}} [[Super Robot Wars\|"Shut up! I am Sanger! Sanger Zonvolt! The Sword That Smites Evil! There is nothing I cannot cut!"]] [[Mahou Sensei Negima\|San Kan Ken!]] Oh yeah? Try to [https://web.archive.org/web/20100618153017/http://www.onemanga.com/Rave/141/10/ top] [https://web.archive.org/web/20100618173941/http://www.onemanga.com/Rave/265/16/ these].

[[Gundam 00: Awakening of the Trailblazer\|Trailblazer's]] 00 Qan(T) wields a beam sword that is just as long as the 00 Raiser's (KILOMETERS in length) and the same width as [[Wave Motion Gun\|Celestial Being's GN Particle Cannon]]. [[Up to Eleven\|Keep in mind that in the first image the 00 is simply beginning to extend its beam sword.]] That is NOT a beam cannon (the confusion is understandable). Also, do you see that planet-like structure in the background? It's roughly the size of the moon... [[ToA ~~Aru~~Certain ~~Majutsu no~~Magical Index\|Fiamma of the Right]]. Think Gin's bankai, [[Rule of Three\|multiply it by three]], [[Incendiery Exponent\|and set it]] [[Flaming Sword\|on fire]]. [[Inuyasha\|Tessaiga]] [[The Belgariad\|Riva Irongrip's Sword]]. Six feet long and made of [[Thunderbolt Iron\|two fallen stars]] it's so heavy that it needs the [[MacGuffin\|Orb of Aldur]] as a pommel stone. Oh and it [[Flaming Sword\|burns blue fire]]. - Vaeshi3 Line 448: [[A New Hope\|You're all clear, kid! Now let's blow this thing and go home!]] [[Trope Namer\|Uh]]...''[[Firefly]]''?! [[The Lord of the Rings\|Rohan to Gondor.]] What's even better than your friends showing up to save you? ''You, the player, showing up to save the heroes.'' How do you do it? [[~~Earthbound~~EarthBound\|You pray with all of your might!]] [[Kingdom Hearts\|Mickey Mouse]], so good at this, it's a gameplay mechanic! [[Fullmetal Alchemist\|"I've been looking foward to seeing you again, Lan Fan!"]] Line 463: [[D.Gray-man\|Allen Walker]] [[Darker than Black\|Hei.]] * [https://web.archive.org/web/20090127005406/http://www.onemanga.com/D.Gray-Man/135/DGM_135_pg10/ I'm just going to leave this here...] [[Fate/stay night\|Saber]], and yet no additional fat is seen, much to Shirou's pleasure. Of course she's a Heroic Spirit, so... [[Prototype (video game)\|Alex Mercer]]... assuming you count [[I'm a Humanitarian\|people-eating as well]]. Line 472: * WAAAAY seconded on [[Pac-Man]] [[More Information Than You Require\|Before William Howard Taft, the Oval Office was round.]] [[Warhammer ~~40000~~40,000]] Tyrannids [[Fullmetal Alchemist\|Gluttony]], of course. [[Animorphs\|Taxxons]]. If you injure one, it will start ''eating itself in a frenzy''. Line 485: [[Night Watch (novel)\|Geser]] ** [[Power Rangers\|Zordon]] * [[~~Big~~Non ~~Lipped~~Sequitur ~~Alligator Moment~~Scene]] [[The Nostalgia Critic\|THE]] [[All Dogs Go to Heaven\|BIG LIPPED]] [[The Nostalgia Chick\|ALLIGATOR MOMENT!!!]] [[Family Guy]] Line 599: [[Hellsing\|The Major]] [[The Venture Brothers\|Brock Samson]] -- ** [[Warhammer ~~40000~~40,000\|Orkz waz made for fightin' and winnin'!]] ''WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH!!!'' * [[Blood on the Debate Floor]] [[Gaius Julius Caesar]] Line 611: ''[[Dwarf Fortress]]''. "Losing is fun!" * [[Body Horror]] ''[[The Human Centipede]]''. The concept alone will give you nausea. * [[It Got Worse\|They made a sequel.]] [[Akira\|Tetsuo.]] That is all. Line 626: * So Seconded. And I must correct you, he's not a Berserker. He's a World Class Berserker. Raven in ''[[Cecil B. Demented]]''. -- A female version: Momoyo Kawakami from [[Maji de Watashi ni Koi Shinasai!]]. Also arguably the most powerful character in a series with a high amount of [[Action ~~Girls~~Girl]]s. * [[Bolivian Army Ending]] Overlaps with [[Kill'Em All]], but find me a better one than ''[[Blake's 7\|Blakes Seven]]''. I dare you. Line 657: [[Egyptian Mythology\|Hathor]] [[Neon Genesis Evangelion\|Misato Katsuragi]] [[~~xxxHolic~~×××HOLiC\|Yuuko Ichihara.]] * [[Boxed Crook]] [[Warhammer ~~40000~~40,000\|The Last Chancers]] ''[[The Silence of the Lambs]]'' * [[Braggart Boss]] Line 673: * [[Breaking the Fellowship]] [[One Piece]] [[The Lord of the Rings]] [[Trope Namer\|ring any bells?]] * [[Breaking the Fourth Wall]] [[~~Earthbound~~EarthBound]]. It doesn't just break the Fourth Wall, it grabs you and pulls you ''into the game.'' * As does {{spoiler\|it's sequel [[Mother 3]]}}. The end of [[Blazing Saddles]]. Line 704: * Seconded [[Yu-Gi-Oh!\|Seto Kaiba]]. The earlier chapters of the manga and the ones befor he returned are very diffrent from the ones after. [[ToA ~~Aru~~Certain ~~Majutsu no~~Magical Index\|Misaka Mikoto]] to the point where she gets her own [[~~To Aru~~A ~~Kagaku~~Certain noScientific Railgun\|anime/manga]]. * [[Breakout Villain]] [[Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles\|The Shredder]] Line 732: [[Seinfeld\|Is that a Titleist?...Got a hole in one, huh?]] [[How I Met Your Mother\|"BINGO!!!"]] {{spoiler\|[[Toy Story (franchise)\|THE CLAAAAAAW!]]}} "[[Family Guy\|See? We had a plan for that all along!]]" -- {{spoiler\|Flint's traveling doorknob}} from [[Mother 3]]. Line 758: ''[[Code Geass]]'', dear God, ''[[Code Geass]]'' ''[[Magic: The Gathering]]''. Which is why [[Wizards of the Coast\|WotC]] has apparently said "If you can't please the fans, please the bottom line". EVERY. SINGLE. EDITION. Of [[Dungeons ~~and~~& Dragons]], but especially the transition from 3E to 4E. [[Super Smash Bros.]]. Barf. ''[[Doctor Who]]''. There have been [[Internet Backdraft\|InternetBackdrafts]] about hair color! Line 795: "Things Get Broken" from [[Leonard Bernstein]]'s ''Mass'', because not many BSOD Songs are 14 minutes long. - Prfnoff "Dust In The Wind" by Kansas -- "[[Portal (series)\|Still Alive]]". And a [[AIA.I. Is a Crapshoot\|literal]] one at that. -- * [[Bullet Hell]] [[Touhou]] Line 825: [http://verydemotivational.memebase.com/2011/05/24/demotivational-posters-mileena/ Mileena] from ''[[Mortal Kombat]]'' series. Over time she's evolved into the series [[Ms. Fanservice]], she's ''easily'' the most [[Stripperiffic]] character in the series (and that's really saying something), she has a flawless body exposed for your viewing pleasure... and she has a face that will give you ''[[Nightmare Fuel\|nightmares!]]'' * [[Butt Monkey]] [[Clannad (visual novel)\|Sunohara Youhei.]] [[Neon Genesis Evangelion\|Shinji Ikari]]. ** [[Homestar Runner\|Gron Sad]] Line 844: {{reflist}} [[Category:~~Most Triumphant Example (Sugar Wiki)~~{{TOPLEVELPAGE}}]] [[Category:Split Trope Lists]]
