The '''Ridiculously Average Guy''' is pretty much middle-of-the-road in all things. He's not ugly, but he's not particularly handsome (or pretty) either. He's not a moron, but he's not one of the best in his class either. (He will probably tend towards the low end on grades, possibly even failing his entrance exams, but he's not portrayed as aggressively stupid, either.) He has no special powers, even if the rest of the cast does pretty much as a rule. He's not a complete weakling, but nor does he excel in any physical ways.
Line 19 ⟶ 18:
Most of the time he's the the hero of the story.
Compare [[Unlikely Hero]], [[Unlucky Everydude]], [[The Everyman]], [[Ordinary High School Student]], [[Featureless Protagonist]], [[White Male Lead]] and [[The Nondescript]] (who only ''seems'' ridiculously average). For the video game equivalent, see [[Jack of All Stats]].

* Tsukune from ''[[Rosario + Vampire]]'' is probably king of this trope. A dead-average guy sent to a school full of monsters, he has every single woman he meets either wanting to be his one true friend, his girlfriend, his wife, or his... uh, devourer, but still. The only thing that isn't average about him is how ridiculously average he is.
