S-subarashii!

John Diaz
Jace Garcia
And then the antagonist jobs right after. Garbage trope.
Sebastian Fisher
>when the antagonist respects the protagonist even when killing the protagonist
Charles Kelly
>MC use a technique he used against secondary villains, to defeat the final villain.
Not anime, but Ip Man 2's final fight was very satisfying for me.
Owen Reyes
When the first lines of the series repaint the ending in an entirely different light.
Adam Miller
Fuck, wrong quote.
Wyatt Martin
>ending of the final fight is cut off only to be revealed in the credits
Zachary Thompson
Show starts with "This is how I died"
Kevin Morgan
Nah mate, it’s used heavily in Berserk to full bonerific effect. The first Guts v. Zodd encounter had me diamonds the whole time. Forgive the screenshot but I couldn’t find the panels themselves.
Lucas Hill
Patrician trope right here. What’s your favorite example?
Levi Russell
that's actually a good trope.
Kevin Watson

Sad picture was because my favorite example is Code Geass.

Dominic Parker
>Low/lowest-ranked member of some badass group ends up being the strongest or giving opponents the most trouble
Levi Bennett
>when you really get invested in the villian and like him more than the protag
> you think he is never going to win, but he does
Brayden Brown
>climactic battle devolves into two dudes just punching each other
Oliver Ward
>when the generic beta MC not only switches sides and becomes the villain, but does so after becoming stronger as a person, and does so only for ultimately good reasons
>also the female lead of your show creates a character archetype that endures 15 years after your show started airing
Luis Howard
I have a folder of just women wearing jackets over their shoulders like capes.
Hunter Ward
>The comic relief has had enough and beats up everyone just to prove he could
Luis Cooper
>the villian did nothing wrong
Elijah Ward
>Kotomine Kireeeeei!
Daniel Russell
From creating galaxies to just punching each other. That shit was so good.
Brody Collins
d-dump?
Jace Young
It's 3DPD you don't want it user, I wish it were a more popular thing in manga but it's not.
Jack Jones
Levi Allen
>character who always has eyes closed opens them for the first time
Evan Watson
>character always has eyes closed
>there is a reason
Isaac Green
>the protagonist is the main villian
Michael Thomas
Examples.
Besides overlord.
Carson Morales
>then the antagonist is forced to an hero
Ryder Perez
Death Note
John Foster
>light
>villain
rev up the retard alarm i'm going in
Sebastian Roberts
Would Deadman Wonderland count? Shiro isn’t the main protagonist but she is certainly one of them
Daniel Robinson
im pretty sure only pucci did that
Ryder Hughes
>It's 3DPD you don't want it user,
I do, drop it on a MEGA link or something. Please.
James Butler
>mass murderer
>hero
The retard alarm is already on.
David James
Aside from TTGL what other show did this?
Ethan Fisher
>character that mainly uses techniques yo win says "fuck it" and fights like a mad dog.
Carter Ward
>if hes not a hero then he must be a villain
Correct, already on because you triggered it with your birth.
Isaiah Reyes
I second this
Owen Carter
FMA
Grayson Nelson
Naruto
Jayden Foster
Imagine if he was actually well-written by someone other than the hack Kishi
This applies to the rest of the series as well
Jayden Rogers
>the protagonist and the antagonist never meet nor interact with each other
Jordan Richardson
Series like bleach make me wish manga rewrites were a thing.
Hudson Green
Don’t forget this faggot
Connor Bailey
Furuta still pisses me off. Ishida should have turned it into a 3 parter to avoid the burnout.
Aiden Lewis
Dio did that with jonathan
Nathan Parker
He should’ve at least taken a fuckin break in 7 years, it’s unforgivable that he did that to himself without any real reason. I get that his editors might’ve been on his back, but his series was successful. He had some say and he exercised it with ch 125 and the finale but that’s about it.
Jeremiah Cruz
based and checked
don't why Yea Forumsnons hate him, he's easily one of the more entertaining characters in the series
Easton White
>when a lot of various characters/factions/groups are trapped in one situation/location
Thomas Wright
Kayden Robinson
Agreed. It’s Furuta that fulfills TG’s tragedy/comedy dynamic, without him re wouldn’t be the classical comedy that it is.
Samuel Williams
This is why we hate him. TG wasn't a fucking comedy/tragedy. And even if it was there is nothing genuinely funny about furuta.
Nathan Parker
>inb4 “we”
A classical comedy isn’t supposed to be fucking funny you dumbass, it just refers to the overarching direction of the story
Angel Clark
We as in Yea Forumsnons that don't like furuta. Furuta represented a shift in the tone, theme, and execution of TG. If you change a story half way through, people have the right to complain.
And what's this about classical comedy. TG wasn't a classical comedy. It was from the beginning to about halfway through re, a tragedy.
James Cox
>one of the villains kick the ass from the entire cast of protagonists
I loved that in Full Ahead Coco and The Violinist of Hameln.
Parker Watson
Righteousness goes to he who wins, and Light certainly didn't win.
William Nguyen
Cavalier of the Abyss
Easton Price
>light certainly didn't win
If by becoming a literal death god with a cult of followers isn't winning, idk what is
Samuel Torres
I'd say "being alive" is one of my prerequisites, personally
Julian Sullivan
>underdog villain kills smuglord protagonist
F/SN spoilers
Connor Young
What part of becoming a literal death god do you not get. He is better than alive.
Joseph Phillips
A classical comedy, by definition, involves a farcical conflict that centers around some massive blunder (in TG re’s case, Kaneki’s emergence as dragon) that doesn’t ultimately end badly. It usually ends with the death of the antagonist and a “happy” conclusion for the protagonist. Re is a comedy, at least that’s what Ishida was going for. I’m not going to argue that he pulled it off well, though.
Landon Lewis
>at least that's what Ishida was going for
My god you're retarded. He made this choice, HALFWAY THROUGH RE. What are you having trouble with here.
Blake Lee
>only HALF of re is a comedy
Well ALL of you is a massive faggot, what’s your point? Just because the focus on comedic elements was only hammered into us in the latter half doesn’t change what the story is, you brainlet
Bentley Hughes
Oh yes
Owen Barnes
>stoic character cracks and shows his true emotions
sometimes it's just too much
Logan Cook
In Negima, Negi vs Rakan at the tournament.
Kevin Cook
>what's your point
Okay i guess i'll restate it again because you have the brain of an actual rock. If you change your story halfway through, people are going to complain. Some people, would consider that bad writing.
Blake Harris
I love the major from hellsing
Jonathan Clark
>op mentor character reluctantly helps the protagonist and makes it a roundabout lesson
Liam Edwards
s-CRY-ed
Aaron Powell
Holy fucking shit, I can feel your autism and retardation through my screen. Ishida foreshadowed the endgame for TG re since the beginning of TG. I specifically said that I wasn’t arguing that he pulled it off well. It’s just the literal kind of story he was telling. Please wrap your brain around that so I don’t have to repeat myself.
Isaiah Evans
Amuro & Char went from mobile suits, to guns, to swords
Samuel Johnson
IT MADE NO SENSE.
>Bel Poul and all the other fags are actively trying to kill Yuji
>I know, why don't I join them
FUCK THAT
I never could finish Shana because of that
Eli Roberts
Hoshi no Samidare, even I hate this manga, that fight was really good.
Kevin Cooper
Porco Rosso did it the best
Landon James
God yes, I love any mentoring sequence
Ryan Adams
>villain soundly defeats hero
>spares the hero so he can train and stand a better chance for their rematch
Benjamin Cooper
>Starts off as foot soldier who isn't afraid to sass and shit-talk his fellow soldiers
>Fucking sits and watches a war go on while sipping tea because he doesn't feel like dirtying his hands yet
>Big Bad STILL promotes him to Elite Squad
>Only one of the Elite Squad to even put up a fight against Nimaiya before the powerup
>Suddenly starts scoring feats and incapacitating main characters (INCLUDING THE MC) left and right just by knowing when to fight, when to ambush, and when to run away
>Never loses his jovial goofy talkative attitude
Askin was fucking great
