Ineffectual Loner: Difference between revisions

** Eric Myers, the Quantum Ranger of ''[[Power Rangers Time Force]]'' consistently thought himself superior to the other rangers (and, on paper, he ''was'') and never actually joined the team in any real sense. He only actively works with the others in the finale, and then it's only by giving his powers to the Red Ranger, Wes, when he is incapacitated. (In [[Mirai Sentai Timeranger|the parallel]] ''[[Super Sentai]]'', the equivalent character, Naoto Takizawa, actually experiences [[Redemption Equals Death]]).

** Will, the Black Ranger of ''[[Power Rangers Operation Overdrive]]'' also starts out this way, going to ridiculous extremes to keep the team from helping out. He learns his lesson early into the series, at the end of the third episode ("The Underwater World")... [[Aesop Amnesia|and spends the rest of the season acting on his own in many episodes with everyone's blessing and being quite successful at it]].

* ''[[Buffy the Vampire Slayer]]'':

** Buffy falls into this, at least once a season, before coming back to her friends for support.
