• Mary Sue: Paikea is one, but she's an example of the trope done well.
• Needs More Love: Critically acclaimed movie and book, but few people have ever heard of either.
• Tear Jerker: Paikea's speech, the beached whales, Paikea proclaiming that she's "not afraid to die", basically the last half hour of the film.
