Sometimes a show, performer or franchise, for some reason or another, doesn't last too long. Perhaps [[Executive Meddling]] reared its ugly head, perhaps it was [[Too Good to Last]], perhaps [[Author Existence Failure]] was involved, or maybe it was simply ahead of its time. However, a few years down the road, the genre that it belonged to explodes in popularity, and when you interview the creative minds behind the genre, they ALWAYS''always'' put that particular work front and center as their biggest influence. Quite simply, it was a '''[[Short-Lived, Big Impact''']].
 
This trope is about something having left a noticeable impact on its genre, even though the work/artist was cut short. Short works that were great but have not influenced their genre a lot yet (ex: ''[[Firefly]]'', ''[[Arrested Development (TV series)|Arrested Development]]'') go under [[Too Good to Last]], not here.
Line 15:
 
Do not confuse this with [[Too Good to Last]], but it can play a part in the untimely demise. Tell who was influenced when you make your example or it goes under Too Good to Last. Can overlap with [[Dead Artists Are Better]], [[Too Good for This Sinful Earth]] and [[Too Cool to Live]].

== [[Anime]] and [[Manga]] ==
* ''[[Kuso Miso Technique]]'' was just a one-shot manga. Its impact in form of the "yaranaika" meme and helping to bring the [[Bara Genre]] to the attention of the anime fandom is still felt, more than 20 years after its publication.
