The Friend Nobody Likes: Difference between revisions

Line 28:

* Chiri in ''[[Sayonara, Zetsubou-sensei]]'' is a lot like Cartman. She's a very extreme [[Heroic Comedic Sociopath]] and everyone is afraid of her [[Ax Crazy]] streak, but she's still part of the group. It probably helps that everyone else is pretty crazy/borderline sociopathic.

* Harou Niijima from ''[[Historys Strongest Disciple Kenichi]]''. He's a self-proclaimed evil genius, and is cowardly and manipulative. Even his "friends" often wonder why the heck they tolerate his presence. The only person who seems to geniunely like having him around is the resident [[Cloudcuckoolander]] Siegfried, everyone else was bullied, blackmailed, or otherwise manipulated into joining him... but at least he's good with information, so he does make himself quite useful.

* ''[[Minimonsters]]'' has [[Small Name, Big Ego|colossal]] [[Vegetarian Vampire|vampire]] [[Spoiled Brat|prick]] [[Unsympathetic Comedy Protagonist|Victor Von Piro]] to the Frank's Gang. It's plainly stated by [[Gadgeteer Genius|Frank]] he only admitted him in his gang out of pity, and nobody in the gang (except [[Dogged Nice Girl|Piruja]]) can stand him. This quote from [[Sleepyhead|Lupo]] drives this home:

{{quote|'''Lupo''': Please refresh my memory, Frank. Why is this loser in our gang?}}

** In the first album, Piruja was portrayed as this to the gang due to her clinginess. However, a combination of [[Characterization Marches On]] for the characters and some [[Fridge Brilliance]] (Piruja, for all her clinginess, is leagues nicer and more tolerable than Victor), she walked away from this trope as of later albums, this role being transferred to Victor instead.

** [[Gang of Bullies|Morty's Gang]], meanwhile, has [[Invisible Man|Mienai]], the gang's [[Butt Monkey]]. In an ironic twist, Mienai is the [[Token Good Teammate]] of the group, which serves to highlight how much of an assholes the other members are (''especially'' the leader, [[The Sociopath|Morty]])
