The Fighting Narcissist: Difference between revisions

* Suzuki/Suzuka from ''[[Yu Yu Hakusho]]'', who kills anyone who refuses to add Beautiful to his name.

* Hiromi Kisiragi of ''[[Eyeshield 21]]'' is a cornerback who believes that only strength is beautiful; this factors into his exceptionally brutal play style. He's still far more sympathetic than most the examples of this trope, not least because his narcissism is rooted in his own self-loathing and past as a bully magnet; he's now out to prove to everyone that he's not a pushover anymore. And oh yeah, that he's pretty. He's more of a wannabe-Fighting Narcissist than a full on example.

* ''[[Sailor Moon]]'' has Dark Kingdom General Zoisite, although he prefers to fight dirty, employing trickery and deceit.

** Rick "The Model" Martel, who used his signature perfume arrogance.

** "[[Exactly What It Says on the Tin|The Narcissist]]" Lex Luger, who stared into a mirror before his matches.

** "Dashing" [[Cody Rhodes]], who goes to great lengths to avoid being hit in the face, until a 619 by [[Rey Mysterio, Jr.]] completely turned him into a grotesque character who wears a face mask.

** "Ravishing" Rick Rude

 

 

** This attitude backfires horribly for him in ''[[Street Fighter II: The Animated Movie]]'', when he fights Chun-Li, who severely puts him off his game by just [[Spam Attack|kicking the ever-loving shit out of his face]]. Things go from bad to worse for him pretty quick following that.

* The ''[[Suikoden]]'' series has an entire class of "Narcissist" characters: foppish aristocrats (or in one case, a conman pretending to be) who have great admiration for themselves, but are surprisingly skilled swordsmen. Atypically for this trope, the Narcissists invariably befriend the hero, and get along very well with each other. Typically, they're under the mistaken impression that the hero is part of their clique. ''[[Suikoden V]]'' introduces the series' first female Narcissist, who unsuccessfully tries to get the hero to dress more "appropriately" (ie in gaudily foppish clothing).

* [[Handsome Lech|Zelos]] [[Chivalrous Pervert|Wilder]] from ''[[Tales of Symphonia]]'' deserves mention. He even has a title called [[Exactly What It Says on the Tin|''Narcissist'']] and various battle quotes to go with it.
