Cool Loser TRS cleanup, has been renamed to Unconvincingly Unpopular Character and is a YMMV audience reaction.


* CoolLoser: Mostly. If you don’t go out of your way to make their lives hard they don’t bother with popularity.

Added DiffLines:

* HorrifyingTheHorror: They’re not stuck with monsters, monsters are stuck with them. They also fit some horror antagonists archetypes themselves, and would turn the tables if they’re the victim of an UrbanLegend. (e.g. Daruma-onna and kidnapped ladies getting their limbs removed? They’ll remove their kidnappers’ limbs instead.)

*** The most extreme cases is that the Alliancer is good at FullContactMagic and RitualMagic, but using any casting focus (e.g. wands) that isn't custom made will lead to disaster. ("I can perform magic with anything that isn't actual magical focuses. Ironic!")

Added DiffLines:

* AbsurdlyPowerfulStudentCouncil: The Legion once got to be the student council and is capable of organising complex events, and reduce the impact of the Faction Wars to the uninvolved. Downplayed, they still have to negotiate with staff and the bully factions sending them threats almost daily, and they also have the “Student Council for a Day Experience” showing that it’s not as easy as others would assume. Kinda attributed to them having the strongest abilities, being the elites of the Alliance and actively looking out for others. The Twins are the co-presidents, Lily is the secretary, Joanne is the treasurer, Monica and Carrie are Public Relations (digitally and physically respectively) and Cap is the Event Person.

Added DiffLines:

* RubberMan: Usually used for visual gags, but can be used offensively - they really like screaming “[[Manga/OnePiece GOMU GOMU NO (insert phrase here)]]” when using this for combat.

* PoliceAreUseless: Zigzagged. On one hand they’re able to handle most actual bad stuff. On the other hand they require supernatural intervention on stuff they can’t normally handle. Then there’s their relation with Lily - on one hand she’s respected for able to handle stuff they can’t, but on the other hand Lily can go CopKiller on those who are sent to stop her rampages. She tries to limit herself to the [[PoliceBrutality bad]] [[DirtyCop stuff]] when in control.

Added DiffLines:

* HugeSchoolgirl: Several characters are way above 170 (the metric for the trope), and may surprise those in other worlds. The City in general just has taller people.

-> (At the House of Narrative Genres A to M) ''"Sometimes if a TakeThat centric show gets too annoying to watch, we will do a Recursive TakeThat (A TakeThat towards said TakeThat if you can follow this). For example, WebVideo/{{Paint}} makes Disney songs dark as an excuse to sing them. An Alliance-styled TakeThat would have him be petrified by a [[WesternAnimation/RayaAndTheLastDragon Druun]] - The movie has no songs, is pretty dark, and we see it as a TakeThat towards his videos. [[Series/AdamRuinsEverything Adam's "Ruins Everything" persona]] is a NoSocialSkills Jerkass who shoves AwfulTruth down peoples' throats. Trap him in VisualNovel/DokiDokiLiteratureClub - The SurpriseCreepy is an AwfulTruth, which gives him a taste of his own medicine. [[WebAnimation/DorklyOriginals Kevin's]] videos are low hanging fruit and goes against the lore. He gets sent to [[VideoGame/TouhouProject Gensokyo]] where his common sense gets him killed. Anime/ParanoiaAgent shoots at [[Manga/AzumangaDaioh Osaka]]. I should end this here because it seems like this is the girls' BerserkButton and they're giving me a DeathGlare. (This is the TakeThat)."''

Added DiffLines:

* DayHurtsDarkAdjustedEyes: Possible justification for her attachment to her glasses, as she often finds dark places to hide on or use as a secret base and her glasses help buffer the light level changes. ("I use transition lenses for that.")


Added DiffLines:

* TheNavigator: Avoiding bullies and finding routes to flank them has led to Lily being really good at finding alternate routes, SecretPath and SecretRoom. Often acts like she has NoSenseOfDirection to goad foes into a position advantageous to her or show teammates overlooked secrets. ("All this surviving has honed my skills.")

** Anything involving a {{Curse}} is the same story, the {{Determinator}}'s soul simply gives the curse a NoHoldsBarredBeatdown no matter how strong the curse is. Only exception is the FisherKingdom that is th Evertree Curse, though that's because you have to exploit the curse to not die and hopefully make a change. (No one gets that last bit)
