Line 283:
* ''[[Miraculous Ladybug]]'' [[Big Bad]] Hawk Moth edges into this from time to time, the biggest case probably being Mr. Pigeon. Poor Mr. Ramier has been akumatized ''25 times'' (mostly offscreen) and each new time he's been beaten by the two heroes. Clearly he's a lonely and depressed man, making him a prime target for the akumas, but seriously, Hawk Moth would save a lot of time and energy if he just ignored the poor guy and looked elsewhere.
** This gets even worse. By the time of the special - ''Miraculous World New York United Heroez'' - it's up to ''51 times''. Hawk Moth is just too dumb to give up on this guy.
** His stupidest move occurs in the special ''Miraculous World Shanghai'' where he uses the Akuma on Mei Shu, a Chinese guardian spirit far too arrogant to take orders from someone like him and far too powerful to be controlled. After becoming a Kaiju-sized demon with the intention of wrecking Shanghai, Hawk Moth tries ordering it to stop, only to be ''vaporize'' by the monster's [[Eye Beams]]. Almost a shame that Ladybug has to restore ''all'' the victims when she uses her [[World-Healing Wave]] to undo the damage.
* [[Lampshade Hanging|Lampshaded]] in [[Justice League Unlimited]]: The Flash, stuck in the body of Lex Luthor (don't ask), has to keep up the charade of being Luthor in front of a gang of supervillains.
