Rate the above YMMV.

8/10

I'd like to actualy feel something when engaging with media, even a good bit of stomach churning is fine by me.

Awesome Ego

9/10. Everything I said here applies.

Bump.

3/10

Can sometimes work and be genuinely moving but most of the time I hate it.

1/10

These kinds of jokes usually tend to become extremely old after just one day. You have the same build up and the same punchline over and over again.

Ugly Cute

5/10. It depends, but I’m not really fixated.

8/10 if Played for Laughs i.e. Po learning Mr. Ping is not his biological father.

Jerks Are Worse Than Villains

7/10

There are plenty of jerk characters that I dislike more than the villains because they feel more real or their actions impact the characters emotionally while the villain's actions don't but it gets annoying when fans seem to unironically believe that the jerk is worse than a villain.

1/10. So many works spend so long on building up a relationship and then, either, have so little focus on the two people actually being together or even immediately breaks them up. What's the point? I do understand if some people are only in it for the initially sexual tension, but for me, I want to see the people actually be together. That's partly why I love Niles and Daphne in Frasier, I know some disagree, but to me their relationship continued to be interesting after they got together, and there were some great new stories mined from that fact. I love that they got together in Season 7 (out of 11), meaning that there was 7 seasons of great (and hilarious) build up and sexual tension but also 4 full seasons exploring them together, and a lot of those stories showing them being happy together. So yeah, not a fan of shipping bed death.

9/10. Fun, and can be a good source of discussion within the fandom.

Fan Myopia

6/10 No strong feelings on it.

Sweet Dreams Fuel

10/10. It’s always nice to have a work that’s nothing but well sweet for lack of a better term.

The Scrappy

5/10. Good for uniting fan opinions, but often creates a rift in writing quality.

4/10. No super-strong opinions, unless it impacts writing quality significantly.

Nightmare Fuel

10/10. It’s good to have some scary elements in a story to raise the stakes.

5/10 Mixed, while I may dislike it if it wasn't intentional, but if it is I'll tolerate it more.

Catharsis Factor

10/10. Anything satisfying is worth it.

6/10

Can feel contrived but sometimes it's fun to see how the author will save them.

8/10. It's always interesting to see the contrast between what people think of the character back then and what they think of them now.

7/10. Narm generally isn't a good thing, but having it work in a work's favor takes talent.

Bump.

0/10

The death of an important Character should always have a heavy impact on the audience. May it be heartbreaking, (On rare occurences) hillarious or just downright satisfying.

A shoehorned revival only takes away from the experience.

Character Tiers

0/10. Useful as nothing but a tool for "Stop Having Fun" Guys to enforce their anti-fun attitude.

Accidental Aesop

Whoops! Just added one.

Edited by Kahran042 on Apr 20th 2024 at 2:24:54 PM

You get to come up with the next YMMV trope.

9/10. I think it's interesting to come up with Aesops the story didn't intend after looking at the scenes again and what can be learned from them.

2/10

An extremely unlikable character being shilled by the writers is extremely annoying and makes those unlikable characters even more hatable, given that they take screen time from characters who are actually enjoyable.
