Line 36:
* ''[[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 clinginessclingy behavior. However,The gang [[Took a combinationLevel in Kindness|taking levels in kindness]] ofvia [[CharacterizationCharacterisation Marches On]] for the characters and some [[Fridge Brilliance]] (Piruja, for all her clinginess, is leagues nicer and more tolerable than Victor), sheled to her walkedwalking away from this trope asin ofthe laternext albums, this role being transferred to Victorthe insteadmore deserving [[Jerkass|Victor]].
** [[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 howthe muchassholery of an assholes the other members are (''especially'' the leader, [[The Sociopath|Morty]])
** Played with [[The Pig Pen|Billy Rotten]]. He's often avoided due to his smell, but he's not quite disliked (mostly because he's a [[Nice Guy]]), with Frank's Gang considering him [[The Reliable One]]. Those who do insult him are clearly meant to be [[Jerkass|assholes]].
