Merged trope Jerkass to Nice Guy


* ''WesternAnimation/SouthPark'' has a truly bizarre version that could only have been a parody in the episode "[[Recap/SouthParkS4E16TheWackyMolestationAdventure The Wacky Molestation Adventure]]". After a standard first half following the boys on a comedic setup (Cartman convinces every kid in town to accuse their parents of molesting them so the police will take them away, resulting in a town bereft of adults), the second half abruptly transitions to two new characters, Mark and Linda. They [[GenreRefugee look and act like the main characters of a standard horror thriller film]], with the second half of the episode playing out as a very abridged version of ''Film/ChildrenOfTheCorn1984'' or ''Film/LogansRun'' as Mark and Linda explore the AfterTheEnd setting of South Park as the absence of adults has caused a collapse into anarchy among the child residents. Mark has a relatively detailed backstory (recently married, doesn't want children, on his way to a job interview in Breckenridge), solves the whole conflict, and even has a coherent JerkToNiceGuyPlot character arc. After he gets the job and the two presumably move to Breckenridge, they're never seen again.

Compare the shorter DayInTheLimelight and SpotlightStealingSquad when they completely overshadow the main guy. The Arc Hero is usually a supporting cast member to whoever TheHero is. If the Arc Hero becomes TheHero outright it may overlap with ChangingOfTheGuard or ContrastingSequelMainCharacter. Doing this too often can result in LoadsAndLoadsOfCharacters, and old favorites who used to carry the plot getting DemotedToExtra.

* ''Franchise/DragonBall'': The first three arcs in ''Anime/DragonBallZ'' focused on a new hero or anti hero, mostly because of Goku's extended absences, but he would still come back in time to be the main hero of the final fight.
** The Saiyan Saga heavily featured previous ArcVillain Piccolo as the first point of contact with Raditz, the co-founding of the Z fighters with Goku to oppose him, the kidnapping, training, and character development he goes through with Gohan, leading the charge against Nappa and ending in a HeroicSacrifice just in time for Goku to return and take center stage in the final battle.
** The Namek/Frieza Saga heavily featured previous ArcVillain Vegeta whose relationship with Frieza's Army, the Ginyu Force, and Frieza himself gave context to the battles, as well as his transition from villain to free agent to joining to Z Fighters to even have a chance at beating Frieza. He is also killed in action just in time for Goku to take center stage in the final battle, but not before pouring his heart out to the main hero.
** The Android Saga overall is about newcomer Future Trunks arriving to warn the others of the Android threat, his strenuous relationship with his father Vegeta in contrast to his hero worship of Goku on full display, and another version of him's time machine being the conduit that Cell came to their Universe.
*** The sub Cell Games Arc looked like it was going to be about Goku, who takes center stage in the final battle, but he makes a conscious decision to pass the fight onto Gohan.

The 21st Tenkaichi Budokai introduces Krillin and Launch, and establishes Master Roshi is a permenant hero. He's showcased here more than in any other arc.
** The Red Ribbon Army Arc actually ''inverts'' this Trope: Goku spends a large amount of time adventuring on his own with no consistent companions.
** The 22nd Tenkaichi Budokai gives us Tenshinhan and Chiaotzu, firm anti-heroes who switch to being good guys starting with the Piccolo Daimao Arc that follows it up, along with Yajirobe. The Daimao Arc is the

** The Saiyan Saga Arc showcases previous ArcVillain Piccolo as he inadvertently switches to the side of good. It also famously introduces Goku's son Gohan, a much more meek combatant compared to his father who is trained and mentored by Piccolo.

*** The sub Cell Games Arc portion looked like it was going to be about Goku, who takes center stage Goku in the final battle, but he makes a conscious decision to pass the fight onto Gohan.Gohan, who becomes the main character for the first time.
** The Buu Arc's slap-dash style means not all of these actually stuck. Goten and Trunks are undeniable however, being the sons of Goku and Vegeta who are trained to meet the threat of Buu. Videl was fast on her way to becoming this, but changes to the story meant she became sidelined with the legacy characters. Gohan was also primed as the new main character, then was in the shadow of his father, and then sidelined entirely when he loses to Super Buu.
