Yes-Man: Difference between revisions

Line 35:

* Koizumi from ''[[Haruhi Suzumiya]]'' happily agrees with everything Haruhi says, even things like shooting photos of Mikuru in embarrasing poses and outfits (much to Mikuru's dismay) ''and'' kisses her ass like a pro to boot. He will however, try to convince Haruhi of other possibilities, if the situation gets too serious. Because of Haruhi's [[Genre Savvy]], he compares it to other fictional happening, but [[Wrong Genre Savvy|it doesn't always work out good for him]].

* The electro-sprites that came with Chisame 'Chiu' Hasegawa's Artifact in ''[[Mahou Sensei Negima]]'' are a group of Yes ''Mice''. "Chiu-sama is truly kind!" "Hooray for Chiu-sama!" Naturally, Chisame is more annoyed by them than anything.

* Siegfried Kircheis is this to his childhood friend, Reinhard von Lohengramm in ''[[Legend of Galactic Heroes]]''. Parodied to the fullest extent in this [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X1ZE1wA4tc8 bonus video]

* In the Tenchi Universe version of ''[[Tenchi Muyo!]]'', Washu has two doll-sized robot copies of her whose sole purpose is to talk about how great she is.

* Corkus toward Griffith from ''[[Berserk]]''.

Line 105:

** One episode of ''[[The Simpsons (animation)|The Simpsons]]'' parodied the concept by giving Burns a team of Yes Men, with Smithers as alpha. On discovering he's suddenly become poor, Burns denounces them all as the yes men they are. They, of course, reply, "Yes, sir!"

** In another episode, Burns is outraged by the shocking decline in the quality and quantity of Smithers' toadying, and demands that he fall into line. When Smithers refuses, Burns fires him on the spot.

** Subverted by the fact that Smithers will sometimes oppose Burns if he feels he needs to, such as trying to talk Burns out of blocking the sun over Springfield (as it "crossed the line from everyday villainy to cartoonish super-villainy"), or in going behind his back to reveal Sideshow Bob's electoral fraud to Bart and Lisa, fearing the consequences for his "[[~~Straight~~ ~~Gay~~|choice of lifestyle]]" if the Republican Bob takes power.

* Yes Man (The character's actual billing!) from ''[[Kappa Mikey]]''. His main role seems to be getting excited so that Ozu can remain the stone-faced picture of calm. The poor dude sleeps in a drawer under Ozu's bed.

** Also reversed. When Ozu's brother Brozu visits, Brozu brings with him his own personal "No Man." Whenever someone has something bad happen to him, it's his job to turn [[Chibi]] and scream "Oh NO!" in an over-the-top manner.

Line 137:

* In the ''[[Lilo and Stitch]]'' films and and [[Lilo and Stitch: The Series|series]], Mertle is always surrounded by her chorus of Yes girls; "Yeeeeeaaaaaaahhhhh!"

* Jared on ''[[Superjail]]'' could easily give [[The Simpsons (animation)|Smithers]] a run for his money.

* Samy Garvin on ''[[Jimmy Two-Shoes]]'' fills this role for Lucius.

* Jack Spicer's yes-bot from ''[[Xiaolin Showdown]]''.
