Tropes you Love

>the joke character was the smartest one all along and was merely amusing themselves by pretending to be retarded

>The normally positive and upbeat hero is pissed off and out for blood
>The villains are terrified and get systematically btfo

>the show's most common receiver of slapstick/misfortune is a cute/attractive female with a likable personality.

>it's a fetish fuel episode that has your fetish
>it's really well executed

>the villain sings a villain song while kicking the hero's ass
>bonus points if the hero sings a reprise while they turn the tables.

what is your fetish user?

>it happens to the female character(s)

>your fetish is so uncommon and/or non-sexual that most people probably have no idea

I have a few, but my main ones are transformation and light mind control/alteration.

>Superheroes calling out emergency response workers for being heroes too
It's cheesy but I like the wholesomeness of it.

>meanwhile IRL nurses and hospital staff are huge dicks
I should know better than anybody, I see them everyday

I never get tired of this sort of thing.

Wasn't there an issue where these guys dress up like Superman and other heroes to entertain kids with cancer or whatever and some alien is out to kill Supes and mistakes them for the real Superman and Superman is really sad that these guys are getting in the line of fire?

I feel like the faces don't match the dialog. Supes looks pissed and the officer looks stoned.

That poor cop looks terrified for his life.

>minor side character gets his own episode
>it's really fucking good

why is he reaching for his gun

>Final battle
>Full theme song starts playing

>Guy with eyes always closed opens then and kicks ass

>Badass grandpa leaps into battle
>Weaklings don't last as long as I do!

>Be patrolling park at night
>Tripping balls because you popped some weird pills about an hour ago before your shift
>Bad idea
>Having to concentrate on just staying alive constantly
>Time is passing so slowly, but so fast at the same time
>Not sure if I even exist right now
>Turn a corner, fucking Superman and Nightwing is there
>Is this real or are they demon apparitions come to steel my teeth?
>Only one way to find out

Examples?

Your a blessing

>long-haired tomboys
>cowardly tomboys
>slapstick-prone tombodys
>characters who are equal parts girly and tomboyish.
>characters with girly appearances but tomboyish personalities.

similarly

>episode that contains your fetish
>is a legitimately good episode in it's own right

also the opposite of that where the song the villain is singing is a reprise of a song the hero sang or was part of earlier

Cowardly tomboys are adorable.

>Making the character who looks the less threatening or cool baddass.

>Normal person does something badass by accident and doesn't even notice
>Villain watching thinks they did it on purpose and are hiding their true power

>Hip firing a full auto assault rifle with one hand
It should trigger the fuck out of my inner /k/ommando, but it's just so unapologetically 80's I can't hate it

>Everyone thinks the joke character is actually super-powerful and just being coy about it
>Is revealed as harmless later in the show
>It was a double-bluff
Too grand for the world.

>Everyone thinks the joke character is actually super-powerful and just being coy about it
>Is revealed as harmless later in the show
>It was a double-bluff

Too grandiose for the world.

Good job.

>the normally nice character fucking snaps
>proceeds to call out every character on their bullshit

Yes user, we've all seen Scrubs.

This one is the best, and needs to happen far more often

excellent taste, brother

>self-proclaimed coward
>gets the job done on a regular basis

>"Superman" get shot
>Pretends he just got ketchup on his shirt and calmly walks out so the kids don't see Superman collapse

He heard Superman has a dog.

Spud from American Dragon did this best. He was a genius that just didnt have any common sense. Either that or he was stoned all the time

examples? I can't think of any off the top of my head.

>big fuckoff character is always trying to be gentle because hes so big and fuckoff
>sometimes accidentally slips
>breaks a shitload of furniture

>Character throws something off screen
>Sound of glass breaking and/or a cat screaming is heard

>character is mentally broken through various trauma
>they have a "fixing everything" arc where they "go back to normal"
>they still show signs of damage for the rest of the series run, acknowledging that not everything is perfect

>character gets raped
>that's all, I just really like rape

>Transformation episode
>Character is transformed back at the end, but there's a sign that they still have some physical and/or psychological elements leftover from the transformation.

Any examples of this? I can only think of Tuff Puppy off the top of my head.

Die, you barney watching faggot. This is an mlp reference to "Bats!", episode 7 of season 4, to the cliffhanger ending where Fluttershy is revealed to still have some bat-elements to her.

>barneyfag appears

>character appears to be dying
>they have a "but wait, they're still alive!" moment
>the character actually dies anyway

But how would you know that specific factoid if you yourself weren't a barneyfag? Really gets the noggin joggin.

>Courage the Cowardly Dog

The absolute patron saint of this.
It's just so damn good that it works as a highlight to examine the nature of cowardice, heroism and action itself.

Barneyfag specifically learns everything he can about mlp culture so he can fight it and counter it whenever it appears. Like how Batman learns fighting techniques to fight people that would use them for evil, and he is fine with breaking the law in order to stop OTHER people that break the law. Except with mlp.

SUPPRESSING FIRE

>'Perfect' protagonist is loved by everyone and can do everything
>Dies
>The real protagonist is then revealed

Or the episode of my life as a teenage robot where Jenny gets the tickle/pain upgrade.

Faggot

Not him but it's a useful way to shitpost/ talk about horses without getting banned.

wow thanks for ruining batman, asshole

wait this aint sexy

This reminds me
>bodyguard/ protectee relationships
Love this shit.

loved this on scrubs

Underrated

>It's a series where the Status Quo is god
>Despite this, slight allusions and references of earlier episodes appear here and there

>Character is fatally wounded
>"Oh no! N-not again..."

>MC gets transformed into woman for short gag
>immediately imagine an alternate scenario where they are fucked and become a submissive to an enemy

name 3 (three)

I've never seen that show, but apparently you have.

I know what game that image is from

Superman is so wholesome.

It's not that uncommon of a trope, dumbass.

>hero's main and most recurring enemy isn't his most dangerous
>when the real most dangerous enemy comes onto the scene the hero might even act totally different just to illustrate the gravity of the situation
>may even work with the more recurring enemy to stop the greater villain
>recurring enemy still mistakenly believes themselves to be the villain's arch-nemesis when in actuality it's the more rarely seen, more powerful villain
>more powerful villain maybe even shows off by punking the more recurring enemy

>villain's arch-nemesis

*hero's arch-nemesis

>Everything was planned from the start by the mastermind, but the mastermind is a good guy

>Hero goes back in time to an era where his mother is the same age as him, and she develops a crush on her own time displaced son. (Optional) when son returns to the future and recounts the tale, Mother is super embarrassed and then perverts on the internet start drawing incest fanart.

>The character who's normally a retard has an encyclopedia knowledge of one specific topic that ends up saving the day.

>It's an anime parody that only uses bootleg references from Yu-Gi-Oh, Sailor Moon, Dragonball Z, and Pokemon.

>Yeah, right, the 3 of us, super smartass. I just want to take a fucking nap but noooo, mister superman wants ME to guard the fucking park too.

...

>Long scream/similar loud noise is suddenly cut off by a scene change.

>animated movie has credits sequence in a different art style
>the voice actor credits are a montage of the main characters

>Christmas special has a festive rendition of the theme song

there's an edit somewhere with the security guard having red eyes and carrying a half smoked joint

>main cast doesn't have a designated straight man
>instead, the group dynamic works in such a way that any of the characters could potentially play straight man to any other character depending on the situation

What show?

>main cast doesn't have a designated straight man
>every character that could act as team mom/straight man has those traits exaggerated to such extents that they too become unstable caricatures of real people

I know It's Always Sunny isn't a cartoon but it feels really close to one.

>Almost omnipotent character doesn't really give a fuck
It's even better if it's not omnipotent but just very talented/powerful and he doesn't learn to care.

>the villain is about to win
>one of the main characters has a lovable yet rarely focused on pet that saves the day
>(optional) the pet sacrifices itself and dies in the process

Those aren't all from the same show, genius.

>video game episode
>referencing things outside of Mario, Zelda, and Elder Scrolls

>zombie episode
>based more on Evil Dead than anything else

>its an anime episode

>Evil villain hatches a scheme that does more good than harm
>The protagonists still stop him just because

NIGGER FUCKING NIGGER

Fucking King

>anime episode
>it's not just Sailor Moon, Yu-Gi-Oh, and Dragon Ball
Yes.
>references to anime you actually like
YES

>team can only defeat big bad with power of friendship
>one member of the team (the one who's powers are the strongest, of course) isn't having it and refuses the call
>rest of team has to defeat big bad through strategy because they can't achieve full power without the final member
Bonus points if the final teammate shows up for the final fight and helps out, but still doesn't become a member.

name one

...

>>that's all, I just really like rape
Me too, man. Me too.

Then go get raped.

>Big Boss teams up with MC to fight Bigger Boss
>Evil character has villain BSOD moments, especially with specific character
>Sacrifices that have those moments that cause bitch tears.

My Nigga
>Bodyguard of female royalty that evolves into a intense affair

Anything with little cartoon animal kids and bonus points if they are in their diapers

Not him but I initially thought of Wander and DBZ with Goku and Piccolo against Vegeta and then Goku and Vegeta against Frieza
