Line 23:
*** Believe it, dattebayo!
** [[Tokimeki Memorial|Mei Ijuin]] ''na no da'' !
** [[Rozen Maiden|Suiseiseki's]] desu must not fail this one! [[desu ]] Kulsprutejojjo
** Remember [[King of Fighters|Choi Bounge]] de yansu!
** [[Higurashi no Naku Koro ni|Nipaah [[ Nano desu]]]]
*** I second this and would like to add a [[Higurashi no Naku Koro ni|Hau au au]]. In light of the entire When They Cry franchise, I would also like to add an [[Umineko no Naku Koro ni|Uu uu]] and an [[Umineko no Naku Koro ni|Uryuu]] while I'm at it.
** [[Pinky and The Brain|Narf! Poit! Zort! Troz!]]
Line 117:
** [[Doctor Horribles Sing Along Blog]]. EvaLilith
** The Nazis from [[Das Boot]]. -Ziggy Zag
*** Disagree. Aside from one guy, they mostly seemed politically apathetic sailors just doing their jobs, making them [[Punch Clock Villain|Punch Clock Villains]]s at best.
*** [[Captain Obvious|Punch Clock Villains are still villains, aren't they? Hence the name.]] It's the most triumphant example because no other story I know of can so consistently make you root for them and feel for them before slapping yourself once more and reminding yourself of who they are. That ending alone seals the deal. -Ziggy Zag
** [[Richard III]].
Line 176:
* [[Vocal Minority]]
** [[Eagle Land|Americans]]. Most of them are not loud, boorish, fat, lazy, uncultured, stupid, etc. Shocking, isn't it.
** [[Straw Feminist|Straw Feminists]]s. ''So'' vocal and ''so'' triumphant that even many tropers on this very wiki seem to believe that feminism is synonymous with misandry.
** Conspiracy theorists in general. You'll be surprised to find out that most conspiracy theories actually had less adherents that it seems.
** ''Avatar''-bashers, even now, well over a year after the film's release. For the want of good things said about the film on the internet by ''anyone anywhere'' (or even new jokes made about the same few perceived flaws by the haters), it is extremely difficult to consider the film's good reputation anything but mythical. Will it ''never'' end?! -[[Zuul MF]]
Line 213:
** "[[The White Album]]" by [[The Beatles (band)|The Beatles]]. Bonus points for including the [[Trope Namer]].
* [[Wangst]]
** [[Clerks|I'm stuck in this pit, earning less than slave wages, working on my day off, dealing with every backward fuck on the planet, the goddamn steel shutters are locked all day, I smell like shoe polish, ]]{{spoiler|[[Clerks|I've got an ex-girlfriend who's catatonic after fucking a dead guy]]}}, [[Clerks|and my present girlfriend has sucked thirty-six dicks...My life is in the shitter right about now, so if you don't mind I'd like to stew a bit."]] You may say that there's no good example of wangst, but this is the best one purely because, unlike most others, it's fully intentional. Smith doesn't honestly intend for you to think that moping to the extent he does is reasonable, especially when a good deal of his suffering is self-inflicted. Randal calls Dante on it, {{spoiler|Katlin comes back}} specifically because she expects him to be a wreck, and {{spoiler|Veronica breaks up with him over it.}} The absolute only way to justify, let alone play, this trope.
** Again, ''[[Sonichu]]''. The author doesn't even bother with an attempt at subtlety.
** Simple Plan. Look no further than ''Welcome To My Life''
Line 256:
** ''[[Homestuck]]''. After [[Arc Number|413]] days of its run, it was still the same day in-comic.
*** IT'S BEEN IMPLIED TO EVEN BE ONLY A FEW HOURS. AND THE TROLLS ARE ON THEIR SAME DAY TOO. So very seconded.
*** As of December 25th25, 2010, it is ''still'' April 13th13, 2009 in-comic.
*** As much as I wanted to give this to long-running contender [[Megatokyo]]... yeah, you can't beat Homestuck in this, [[Memetic Mutation|it is simply the best there is.]]
** ''[[Lost]]''; seasons 1-4 take place over 100 days and 5 and 6 a couple of weeks.
Line 288:
** [[Fullmetal Alchemist (manga)|Fullmetal Alchemist Chapter 104]], holy ''fucking'' '''SHIT!''' - Dales Kaine
*** Seconded.
*** ''SO'' thirded. In fact, anything from chapter 95 on-- theon—the [[Holy Shit Quotient|HSQ]] has gone through the roof by now.
*** Fourthed! And the most amazing part about it was the fact that the author could keep ''upping the ante''.
** [[Fullmetal Alchemist (anime)|Fullmetal Alchemist]] Episode 50. DAMN.
Line 451:
* [[The Woobie]]
** [[WALL-E]] Might as well call him WOOB-E (Credit goes out to whoever came up with that on the page for [[The Woobie]]).
** [[Supernatural|Sam and Dean Winchester.]] I believe they are still the reigning gods of [[The Woobie|The Woobies]]s.
** [[South Park|Leopold "Butters" Scotch]]
** ''[[Digger]]'''s Ed the Hyena. Blood of the architect, Ed the Hyena.
Line 457:
*** Especially after [[The Movie]]
** [[The Elephant Man|"Can you imagine the kind of life he must have had? I don't believe you can. I don't believe any of us can."]]
** [[Phantom Brave|Marona]]. [[Ungrateful Bastard|Ungrateful Bastards]]s...
** Ako Izumi of [[Negima]].
** [[Questionable Content|Hannelore!]]
Line 486:
** [[Star Trek|Nero]]
** [[Fate/stay night|Sakura Matou]]
** [[Gundam Seed|Rau le Creuset]]. Humans really, ''REALLY'' are [[Humans Are Bastardsthe Real Monsters|bastards]].
** [[Paper Mario (franchise)|Count Bleck]].
** {{spoiler|[[Kingdom Hearts: 358/2 Days|Xion.]]}} [[Tear Jerker|Oh dear, sweet God,]] {{spoiler|Xion.}}
** [[The Abominable Dr. Phibes]]
** [[Breath of Fire|Fou-lu]]. [[Humans Are Bastardsthe Real Monsters|So]] [[King in the Mountain|many]], [[Unwanted Revival|many]], [[Sinister Minister|many]], [[Fantastic Nuke|many]], [[Back Stab|many]], ''[[Kill the Cutie|many]]'' [[It's All My Fault|ways]], ''especially'' if you throw in the portrayal in the [[Comic Book Adaptation]] of ''[[Breath of Fire]] IV''. ''[[Trauma Conga Line|His entire storyline]]'' is pretty much "How To Turn A ''Literal'' [[God-Emperor]] Into A [[Woobie, Destroyer of Worlds]]".
** No mention of [[Doctor Who|The Doctor]]?
** [[Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World|Richter.]]
Line 545:
** [[TV Tropes]] itself.
*** IIIII RESENT THAT! WHY, HOW DAAAAAAAUH YOU,! BAH!
** "Holy [[Narm|Narmtastic]]tastic [[Catch Phrase|CatchPhrases]], [[Batman (TV series)|Batman]]! Our whole show is made of [[Large Ham|Ham]]!"
** [[Gurren Lagann]]. Just. Gurren. Fucking. Lagann.
** [[Brutal Legend]]
