9	There are some characters who are likable; they may be a NiceGuy or an AllLovingHero. Then there are these characters who are so pure and nice that every single character who has met them InUniverse loves them. If the character is ''not'' good, they may be a VillainWithGoodPublicity, with everyone being a HorribleJudgeOfCharacter and it can lead to a BrokenPedestal situation.
10
11	The reason a character is so beloved may vary. It may be because they're just that nice and perfect. They could be a hero who [[ChronicHeroSyndrome goes out of their way to help]] simply because [[ForGreatJustice they want to]]. However, it's more often than not a SuperTrope to HundredPercentHeroismRating and UniversallyBelovedLeader.
12
13	Occasionally, this trope can be PlayedForLaughs, especially when the universally loved character is a ParodySue, who only exists to make the protagonist jealous. A [[GreenEyedMonster jealous]] person might resent this person for [[AlwaysSomeoneBetter always overshadowing them]].
14
15	In HaremGenre plots and situations, the loved character is often TheEveryman, and sometimes his characterization doesn't justify the "loved by all" trait that the character has, especially when it's WishFulfillment or a PowerFantasy.
16
17	Compare MarySue, where such a character is generally disliked by the audience due to their idealized personality and few if any flaws; a Loved by All character can have personality flaws and the like and still have people in-universe or out like them. Compare also MagneticHero who is a hero who gains many friends easily, or ClassPrincess, who is a popular girl who is loved for her kindness. When someone disliking this character is a plot point, see SomebodyDoesntLoveRaymond. Opposite of HatedByAll, where a character is despised by virtually everyone in-universe.

23	[[foldercontrol]]
24
25	[[folder:Anime & Manga]]
26	* ''Anime/AhMyGoddess'': Belldandy is almost universally loved. Her beauty, grace, and kindness make her instantly popular with the student body of Nekomi Tech (minus [[SomebodyDoesntLoveRaymond Sayoko]]), including the members of the motor club like Otaki and Tamiya. Even Marller, a demon and one of Bell's nemeses, is on genuinely friendly terms with her, willing to have meals with her and do karaoke together when they end up at a hot springs together. Even Banpei, a robot programmed without emotions, somehow falls in love with her.
27	* ''Manga/CardcaptorSakura'': Sakura Kinomoto herself loves everyone, and it's stated multiple times that everyone loves her back. Even the few who initially dislike her, like Syaoran and Meiling, eventually come around and become her close friends.
28	* ''Manga/FairyTail'': Lucy is a person who is [[MagneticHero loved by many people throughout the series which range from her Celestial Spirits, her guildmates, even former enemies like Flare and Minerva come to like her.]] This is best shown in the finale of the series when Meredy is able to use her Sensery Link spell to connect Lucy with an entire continent of people in order to help her seal Acnologia's body away in Fairy Sphere. Said spell requires the people it's used on to have strong feelings for each other in order to work, which means all of those people must care about Lucy just as she does for them.
29	* ''Manga/FistOfTheNorthStar'': The citizens of the post-apocalyptic world live in fear and suffering, being abused by roving gangs of raiders and besieged by ruthless warlords... until Kenshiro walks into town. He is ''so'' adored by the common folk that he has the nickname "Savior of Century's End."
30	* ''Manga/{{Horimiya}}'': Even for a manga where everyone is more or less friends with everyone else, Yanagi is particularly well-liked. Everyone wants to be closer to and liked by him, going the extra mile to get in his good graces, and the boys even worry that his use of polite speak around them means that he doesn't like them.
31	* ''Manga/MoriartyThePatriot'': Professor William James Moriarty, for all that he's a SerialKiller, is adored by just about everyone. His brothers worship him, his crew devotes their lives to him and break into tears once [[spoiler:they discover he survived the fall in ''The Final Problem'']], his students want to visit his house, Bill Hunting religiously studied his theses, Sherlock Holmes considers him a dear friend, Mycroft Holmes considers him a "true patriot" and even John Watson says he seemed like a good person when they briefly met -- even after discovering the man was The Lord of Crime. Just about the only person who doesn't like him is... William James Moriarty himself.
32	* '' Literature/TheMostHereticalLastBossQueenFromVillainessToSavior'': Princess Pride in the original timeline was a RoyalBrat {{Sadist}} with a ZeroPercentApprovalRating, who destroys her country and gets killed by her sister Tiara and whichever vengeance-driven capture target ends up with Tiara. New timeline Pride (having been taken over by an isekaied girl) gains the love of everyone through her kindness, bravery, and not doing the evil deeds of original Pride. Whole platoons worth of people now [[IOweYouMyLife owe their lives to her]] and adore her utterly.
33	* ''Manga/MyHeroAcademia'':
34	** All Might is beloved by everyone as he is the Symbol of Peace. He, of course, is a very upstanding person himself who very often inspires everyone around him to do better. [[spoiler:So when he is forced to retire after his battle with All for One, the public is understandably devastated and can't for the life of them consider ''Endeavor'' to be a fitting replacement since he is the complete opposite of All Might's public image. He is trying to make amends for his horrible reputation, though.]]
35	** Then right next to Best Jeanist is Hawks, and it isn't hard to see how people adore him for his easygoing nature and charismatic attitude. He is most likely to get crowded on the street and spend the time taking selfies and giving out autographs.
36	* Princess Sakura from ''Manga/TsubasaReservoirChronicle''. It only takes her mentioning she likes apples for her to be presented with a bunch of them the next time she's in town. This also extends to most people she meets in her travels.
37	* ''Anime/PorcoRosso'':
38	** Gina, who runs the restaurant on her own private island, is the idol of all the sea-plane pilots, and even the pirates will behave themselves in their presence.
39	** Fio Piccolo quickly earns the love and respect of all the pilots, even convincing the pirates not to smash the plane she'd helped to rebuild by appealing to their sense of honor and asking them to fight Porco in the air, instead. As war is about to break out, Porco hands Fio off to Gina, and the according to Fio the two became good and fast friends.
40	* ''Manga/RanmaOneHalf'': Kasumi Tendo is an incredibly sweet (and somewhat naive) SupremeChef, homemaker, and TeamMom that everybody else in the cast adores -- even Happosai, who is a supreme lecher and too headstrong ([[OldMaster and plain strong]]) to reason with, backs down whenever Kasumi gives him a stern look and [[SwiperNoSwiping a "please don't do that"]]. Almost nobody else in the cast, even at their most vile, think of hurting her as part of their schemes (those who definitely would [[ContrivedCoincidence just happen to never interact with her]]), and the few times she has become collateral damage everybody despairs.
41	* ''Manga/StarStrikeItRich'': Hina is universally loved by members of the Army of God, even those who completly left the cult behind. This clues Hana that there's something unnatural going on, since no matter how popular someone is, there's always going to be a few people who don't like them.
42	* ''Manga/TheVampireDiesInNoTime'': While it's a WorldOfJerkass, Idiots and [[BreadEggsBreadedEggs Jerkass Idiots]], almost everyone InUniverse is insanely protective of [[TeamPet John, Draluc's Armadillo]] {{Familiar}}. While Ronaldo finds it odd that Draluc has such a unique pet, he quickly gains a BigBrotherInstinct for him and gets enraged at Draluc's supposed negligence and willingness to have him act as bait due to his toughness. One chapter not only reveals that [[MakesJustAsMuchSenseInContext he has his own fan club for his football matches]], but the moment it's assumed that he's kidnapped by Vampire, when he was actually just late getting home but later ''does'' get kidnapped (twice), Ronaldo, Draluc, the Vampire Hunters Guild, The Vampire Division of the local police, and the aforementioned fan club are up in arms and searching for him.
43	[[/folder]]
44
45	[[folder:Asian Animation]]
46	* ''Animation/{{Pucca}}'': Pucca is very popular throughout Sooga Village, most likely because she's very friendly and helpful ([[ClingyJealousGirl clingy tendencies]] notwithstanding). Ring Ring [[EvilCannotComprehendGood can't understand why she's so well-liked]] and often tries to outdo her in various ways.
47	[[/folder]]
48
49	[[folder:Comic Books]]
50	* In ''Franchise/TheDCU'', pretty much everyone who isn't a supervillain loves the heroes of their city, and some of the villains respect the heroes. Neither storyline elements nor executive mandates can ever truly change this in the long run.
51	** Metropolis loves Franchise/{{Superman}}, and [[AllLovingHero he loves them right back]]. If anyone is in trouble anywhere, they can have confidence that Superman will save them, because you can bet he will. He's not the BigGood of The DCU for no reason. There are criminals who'll willingly give themselves up to Superman without a run or a fight and appreciate the lack of punching to the face. This extends to even the darkest periods of DC history: when ''ComicBook/DoomsdayClock'' creates an explosion of anti-superhero paranoia worldwide, Superman is named as the sole exception, being the hero welcomed by every country.
52	** Franchise/{{Batman}} has the ordinary citizens of Gotham City rallying to his cause, causing crime to continuously drop, even when he's not there. Supervillains like ComicBook/TheJoker have exploited this before, but that doesn't stop it from happening. Though compared to the rest of the DC universe he is much more willing, often, and sometimes seeking out, and being a HeroWithBadPublicity.
53	** Franchise/TheFlash, arguably, has it the best of all of them, though. Wally West was seen as a working man's hero, not as high above everyone as Superman, not as dark and brooding as Batman. The public identity helped. Heck, ''all'' the Flashes were loved, as Central City built a Flash Museum! Even funnier? Even most of the RoguesGallery that the Flash family do battle with at least ''respect'' the Flashes, sometimes to the point of FriendlyEnemy.
54	** Franchise/GreenLantern Hal Jordan can request people to leave his hometown, Coast City, to protect them: they'll just rally the city in a green display in support of him amidst a Sinestro Corps invasion.
55	** ComicBook/WonderWoman may rarely have a city to call her own, but wherever she ends up for long enough she will always find herself loved by those around her.
56	* ''Franchise/MarvelUniverse'':
57	** ComicBook/CaptainAmerica is almost universally beloved in the Marvel Verse. To many, he is ''the'' superhero. This is deconstructed when [[spoiler:he is turned into a HYDRA agent by a RealityWarper. His fascist self takes advantage of his reputation to manipulate the American government into giving him power. The events of ''Comicbook/SecretEmpire'' ultimately result in HYDRA Cap tarnishing Steve Roger's reputation, meaning he no longer has a 100-percent adoration rating. Steve realizes this when a child he tries to help in the aftermath of the event is too scared of him to take his hand. Steve is actually somewhat ''relieved'' the people no longer unconditionally trust him. He has wanted them to stop blindly trusting authority figures and heroes all along because he is all too aware that can lead to fascism.]]
58	** Second to Cap in popularity in the Marvel Universe is the "The Ever-Lovin' Blue-Eyed Thing" of the ''ComicBook/FantasticFour''. Marvel citizens love him for his unquestionable heroism and charm, and every other hero in the universe, be they an Avenger, an X-Man, or otherwise, will aid him if asked.
59	** Mr. Fantastic is quite beloved as well, given his efforts to improve humanity and the countless times he's saved not just the Earth, but the whole universe from destruction. In ''ComicBook/CataclysmTheUltimatesLastStand'', Mysterio (who's from Universe 616 but stranded in the Ultimate universe) is absolutely stunned when he hears the heroes' utter contempt for that universe's Reed Richards, saying "He's like the most popular genius guy of all time. Hey, I even like him, and I don't like anybody."
60	* ''ComicBook/UltimateMarvel'':
61	** ''ComicBook/UltimateSpiderMan'': Initially, and per tradition, Spider-Man was a HeroWithBadPublicity, with J. Jonah Jameson publishing awful stories about him in the Daily Bugle. This changed after ''ComicBook/{{Ultimatum}}'', as JJ saw Spider-Man valiantly risking his life to save people during the big flood. From then on, he decided that he MustMakeAmends and retracted himself, treating Spider-Man as an IdealHero instead. Spider-Man's popularity soared, and when he died and his secret identity became public knowledge, all of New York City mourned him.
62	** ''ComicBook/TheUltimates'': Captain America, as in all incarnations. The president of the US and most of the people in the presidential line of succession are killed by The Maker, so new elections are called amid a civil war. Captain America did not run for the presidency, he was busy protecting refugees, which was filmed on live television... and so, many people voted for him as a write-in candidate. Sometime later, tired of the protocols, Captain America wanted to step down from the presidency. Stark tried to talk him out of it, saying that he's "the most popular president since... well, ''ever''".

64
65	[[folder:Fan Works]]
66	!!!{{Crossover}}s
67	* Zig-zagged with [[WesternAnimation/HazbinHotel Charlie Morningstar]] in ''Fanfic/ADivineRomanticComedy''. On the one hand, she's widely disliked by Sinners and the average Hellborn as a result of her optimistic worldview and pacifistic nature. However, she's well-loved and adored among the Seven Deadly Sins, being considered a lovable niece to the other six, including ''[[{{Jerkass}} Mammon!]]''
68	* ''Fanfic/LeapOfFaithCatchMeIfYouCan'': Practically everyone in the Batfamily get attached to Peter the moment they talk to him. Even ''Damian'' can't bring himself to dislike the guy, despite being suspicious of him.
69	* Several entries in the ''Fanfic/MaribatAU'' have several members of Batman's RoguesGallery coming to care about her just as much as the Batfamily.
70	* In the ''WesternAnimation/StevenUniverse''[=/=]''WesternAnimation/GravityFalls'' FusionFic ''Fanfic/UniverseFalls'', it's been said that Steven's mother Rose was loved by everyone in Gravity Falls, except for Grunkle Stan. [[spoiler:The reason being Rose's refusal to help Stan fix the portal to save his brother Ford, since turning it back on would mean the risk of destroying the Earth, or even all of reality.]]
71	-->'''Steven:''' I know you said you guys never got along that great, but things couldn't have been ''that'' bad between you two, right?\
72	'''Stan:''' [[SuddenlyShouting Bad?! Are you kidding me, kid?!]] [[HairTriggerTemper Things between me and her weren't just bad, they were--]] ''(He abruptly cuts himself off, glancing over to the twins)'' [[MoodSwinger You know what?]] [[SayingTooMuch Let's just say things were bad and leave it at that, ok?]]
73	* ''Fanfic/WanderOverFostersAUOneshot'': Wander becomes incredibly popular at Foster's due to his cheerful personality and willingness to help others in any way that he can. This makes Bloo [[GreenEyedMonster incredibly jealous]], as he feels ''he'' should be the one getting all that {{attention\|Whore}}.
74
75	!!!''WesternAnimation/{{Amphibia}}''
76	* In ''Fanfic/YoureAboutSevenYearsTooEarly'', nearly everyone in Newtopia winds up adoring Marcy after meeting her. What's more, [[spoiler:King Andrias turns completely against the Core after it orders him to kill her]].
77
78	!!!''Franchise/{{Batman}}''
79	* ''Fanfic/TheManyDeathsOfJasonTodd'': The residents of Crime Alley mourn heavily for Jason/the Red Hood after his demise, leaving flowers in the alleyway where he was murdered.
80
81	!!!''Franchise/DanganRonpa''
82	* ''Fanfic/BeMoreProactiveThisTimeAroundLuckster'': Makoto runs into the downsides of being a MagneticHero here, as he finds that many of his friends wind up fighting for his time and attention. They also notice that he seems to be bothered by something, but he refuses to elaborate on what's wrong, not wanting to admit that he's [[PeggySue a time-traveler]] trying to SetRightWhatOnceWentWrong.
83
84	!!!''VideoGame/GenshinImpact''
85	* In ''Fanfic/EntirelyOutOfSpite'', Ajax builds up this reputation for Tartaglia over time after being [[RebornAsVillainessStory reborn in his body]]. While those who knew Tartaglia beforehand are naturally much harder to win over, he does so well at this that [[spoiler:the Qixing's attempted FrameUp and KangarooCourt blows up ''completely'' in their faces, as many people outright refuse to believe he's guilty, and his apparent demise sparks ''riots'']].
86
87	!!!''WesternAnimation/InvaderZim''
88	* ''Fanfic/InvaderZimABadThingNeverEnds'': Minimoose is adored by Zim and his minions, and even Tak and Dib like him despite being enemies.
89	* In ''Fanfic/TheSmeetSeries'', Zim is highly regarded by the Sobrekt due to all of the times that he's single-handledly incapacitated the Irken Empire. It's eventually revealed that they ''are'' aware of his megalomaniac tendencies, but aren't especially bothered as they know how to handle him.
90
91	!!!''Franchise/MarvelCinematicUniverse''
92	* ''Fanfic/ZToA'': Peter Parker quickly bonds with all of the Avengers. Even [[spoiler:the Infinity Stones]] decide that they like him enough to [[spoiler:select him as their chosen protector]]!
93
94	!!!''WesternAnimation/MiraculousLadybug''
95	* ''Fanfic/AlyaAndTheHaremReality'': The titular AlternateUniverse is created when Alya tries to invoke WastefulWishing in order to prevent Hawkmoth from [[TheBadGuyWins getting his own Wish]]. After all, everybody already liked Marinette, so surely Wishing for everyone to ''love'' her wouldn't have ''that much'' impact... right?
96	* PlayedWith in ''Fanfic/ArchenemiesToSuperfriends'': Lila singles out Marinette as her "rival", figuring it will [[NoChallengeEqualsNoSatisfaction prove a proper challenge]] to supplant her popularity. To her surprise, however, everyone else in Miss Bustier's class takes their "everyday Ladybug" completely for granted. Marinette's still loved and appreciated by everyone ''outside'' of their class, even after she finds herself EasilyCondemned by her [[FairWeatherFriend Fair-Weather Friends]], while Lila realizes that she doesn't actually ''want'' the "adoration" of their fickle peers.
97	* ''Fanfic/FashionUpgrade'': Marinette holds this status for ''nearly'' everyone at Francoise Dupont, with the sole exceptions of [[ManipulativeBitch Lila Rossi]] and [[MisplacedKindergartenTeacher Caline Bustier]]. When the latter decides to [[BlamingTheVictim blame her]] for Lila getting her temporarily expelled on false charges, the rest of the teachers wind up fighting over who should get her in their class. Her old classmates are dismayed to learn about her transfer, while her new ones are eager to get to know her better.
98	* ''Fanfic/TheKarmaOfLies'': Adrien ''[[WrongAssumption believes]]'' that he holds this status; after all, not only is he the "Golden Boy of Paris" and a beloved model for his father's company, he was [[TheChosenOne chosen to be]] Chat Noir... and ProtagonistCenteredMorality dictates that he's always right by default, doesn't it? In reality, it's Ladybug who earns this position when she and her TrueCompanions defeat Hawkmoth, while Adrien finds himself being regarded with increasing suspicion over his [[ItsAllAboutMe self-centered attitude]] and skipping the FinalBattle.
99	* ''Fanfic/TheLamentSeriesChaoticNeutral'': This stands at the root of Chloé's issues in ''Chloé's Lament''. Specifically, she feels everyone ''should'' love and adore her, and is [[GreenEyedMonster horrificially jealous]] of Marinette, believing that "[[OffendedByAnInferiorsSuccess a mere baker's daughter]]" shouldn't be so beloved. This spurs her to make a [[RealityWarpingIsNotAToy reality-altering Wish]] to [[RoleSwapAU swap lives]] with Marinette, assuming this will swap their fortunes as well... without realizing ''why'' Marinette is so well-liked while she's so {{hated\|ByAll}}. Namely that it's a matter of ''personality'', not status.
100	* PlayedForDrama in ''Fanfic/TwoLetters''. The new Ladybug is widely, openly admired by everyone in Paris, to the point where practically everyone has some kind of button or token declaring they support her. Mainly because she's built up a CultOfPersonality around herself, fostering an environment where the character of anyone who ''doesn't'' openly support her is called into question. Don't they know she's their ''hero''...?
101
102	!!!''Franchise/MyHeroAcademia''
103	* {{Deconstruct\|ionFic}}ed in ''Fanfic/{{Dekugate}}'': One of the downsides of Toshinori's status as the Symbol of Peace is the amount of {{Loony Fan}}s who are besotted with the ideas they've ''[[LovingAShadow projected onto him]]''. And this love and admiration doesn't extend to those ''around'' him; in fact, the titular online community is made up of people who absolutely ''despise'' Toshinori's wife and son [[FeelingOppressedByTheirExistence for existing]], openly and brazenly wishing ill upon Inko and Izuku.
104	* In the ''Fanfic/PersonalitySwapAU'', Izuku builds up a reputation as the "Acting Hero" over time, to the point that he's widely admired both in and outside U.A. by the time he reaches his third year. All of the teachers (and Principal Nedzu) consider him to be their favorite student, but none of his peers hold this against him, and he's the only one who's sincerely surprised when he's [[spoiler:named the leader of his generation's Big Three]].
105
106	!!!''Literature/MyNextLifeAsAVillainessAllRoutesLeadToDoom''
107	* ''Fanfic/CatarinaClaesMustDie'':
108	** Henrietta Garland is shocked to discover Catarina Claes is this, as she remembers from her past life that Catarina was a HateSink AlphaBitch in the world of ''Fortune Lover''. Despite so much evidence to prove the Catarina of this world is a dense sweetheart who wouldn't hurt a fly, Henrietta twists herself into knots rationalizing that Catarina is a [[ArcWords vile woman]] who is simply manipulating everyone into thinking otherwise. Even when Keith Claes and Maria Campbell angrily state that Catarina has ''never'' mistreated them, Henrietta misconstrues it as ingratitude towards her for "trying to help them." After Henrietta confesses that she tried to murder Catarina out of fear she would lead their kingdom to ruin should she marry Prince Geordo and would gladly do so again if given the chance, she's attacked by a group of enraged young women (with her former bestie Francine Ridgeway landing the first blow) who can't believe she'd hurt someone as kind as Catarina.
109	** Catarina herself is shocked to learn she's so beloved by her classmates ''and'' their families, as she still believes she's "the villainess" despite all she's done to help her family, friends, and those around her. She does think being called "The Academy Saintess" is a bit much.
110
111	!!!''Franchise/{{Persona}}''
112	* ''Fanfic/PapillionHearts'': Minato was so beloved by everyone at Gekkoukan that there's a memorial decicated to him on the school rooftop that has remained for thirty years and counting. Many also opt to ignore the little detail of how he left behind a [[TeenPregnancy pregnant Yukari]], something that would normally tarnish his reputation... though Yukari still had to deal with the stigmata herself.
113
114	!!!''Franchise/ASongOfIceAndFire''
115	* ''Fanfic/TheBloodsOfBolton'': The smallfolk and servants of the Dreadfort love and admire Domeric, and were practically counting down the days to Roose's death, looking forward to when Domeric could take over.
116	* ''Fanfic/TheRavensPlan'':
117	** While Shireen Baratheon was already admired, she becomes even more widely beloved once word of what Stannis did to her spreads. Even Qyburn shows enough respect to treat the scars left behind from her battle with greyscale.
118	** Despite how everyone ''despises'' the Freys for how they broke SacredHospitality at the Red Wedding, "Fat" Walda Frey is regarded with far more sympathy. Those who Remember lament the gruesome fate that befell her in the original timeline, and even the bannermen of the Tullys express concern for her safety and well-being.
119	** PlayedWith for Arya Stark, who's highly regarded amongst the Tully bannermen for the part she played in slaughtering House Frey... and is TheDreaded for all others.
120	* ''Fanfic/TheSaddestLoveStoryInWesteros'': Aemon's death is greatly mourned, with the public insisting upon a funeral and proper DueToTheDead. When Aegon IV [[SpeakIllOfTheDead insults him]], people begin calling him "Aegon the Unworthy".
121
122	!!!''WesternAnimation/StarVsTheForcesOfEvil''
123	* ''Fanfic/CometVsTheForcesOfEvil'' has Comet's late grandfather, who was absolutely beloved by everyone. Even his great-uncle Eternia smiles while talking about him, despite how they didn't always agree about everything.
124
125	!!!''Literature/{{Worm}}''
126	* ''Fanfic/NemesisBeaconHill'': The only person in Brockton Bay who doesn't like [[HarmlessVillain Bumblebee]] is Emma/Crystalia, who turned Taylor into her nemesis against her will as part of a plan to further torment and humiliate her favorite victim.
127	[[/folder]]
128
129	[[folder:Films -- Animation]]
130	* ''WesternAnimation/BeautyAndTheBeast'': Rare villain example. Everyone in the village worships the ground Gaston walks on and views him as their hero, despite his {{Jerkass}} attitude; [=LeFou=] even states in his VillainSong that everyone in town admires him and wants to be him. Belle is the only one in the village who doesn't worship him, seeing him for who and what he really is.
131	* ''WesternAnimation/{{Coco}}'': Ernesto de la Cruz is a revered musician who is respected throughout Mexico and the Land of the Dead, and there's even a statue and building that contains his guitar. [[spoiler:He ends up becoming HatedByAll throughout both places after it's revealed to the public that he killed Héctor and stole all his songs.]]
132	* ''WesternAnimation/RobinHood1973'': Robin is loved by nearly everyone in Nottingham, because of his willingness to help poor people.
133	* ''Franchise/{{Shrek}}'': By the time ''WesternAnimation/ShrekForeverAfter'' starts, in complete contrast to how it was in [[WesternAnimation/Shrek1 the first movie]], Shrek's heroic deeds have made him the most beloved person in the world, with his family and friends loving him and fans visiting his swamp to see him on a regular basis.
134	* ''WesternAnimation/SpiderManIntoTheSpiderVerse'': The original Spider-Man of Miles' universe seems to be this. He even appears to be in the good graces of the police and Daily Bugle. When news got that he died millions of people came to his funeral for all he's done.
135	[[/folder]]
136
137	[[folder:Films -- Live-Action]]
138	* In ''Film/AntManAndTheWaspQuantumania'', for the role he played in helping undo the Snap, Scott has become a very beloved hero. In the beginning of the film, he can being happily greeted by people in San Francisco. He even gets seen as the one of the original Avengers.
139	* ''Film/DescendantOfTheSun'': The Princess is loved by her subjects, servants, and basically the ''entire'' kingdom. When she gets kidnapped by the evil Regent, the citizens try to rush into the palace to save her, with many commoners volunteering to take her place or otherwise sacrifice for her.
140	* ''Film/TheIrishman'' has a recurring motif whereby the causes of several characters' deaths are displayed on screen upon their introduction. When it's time to talk about Tony Jack, he is described as "dying of old age in 2001 and by all accounts, well-liked by all".
141	* PlayedForLaughs in ''Film/WhatWeDoInTheShadows''-- Stu the I.T. guy is an extremely bland, nerdy everyman, but is adored and praised by everyone, every time he's onscreen, even by vampires, werewolves, and other powerful magic creatures. In the end of the movie [[spoiler: Stu becomes a werewolf, and his popularity is able to put an end to the vampire-werewolf rivalry]].
142	[[/folder]]
143
144	[[folder:Literature]]
145	* ''Literature/HarryPotter'': Harry goes through a lot to achieve this; the wizarding community constantly changes their opinion regarding Harry either seeing him as a hero or attention seeking liar. He suffers a lot of ridicule and abuse in ''[[Literature/HarryPotterAndTheOrderOfThePhoenix Order of the Phoenix]]'' due to the smear campaign conducted against him by the Ministry of Magic, but he regains his popularity when the Ministry is forced to admit that he was telling the truth about Voldemort's return and firmly cements himself as deserving of this after he finally defeats Voldemort once and for all.
146	* In the ''Literature/HeraldsOfValdemar'' series, some Heralds qualify, and their Companions definitely do. In a MedievalStasis world where horses are standard issue, Companions are horse-''shaped'' guardian spirits -- faster, stronger, and more graceful than any horse could ever hope to be. To complete the look, they are pure white with blue eyes and silver hooves, and most of them secretly love being fussed over and admired.
147	* In the backstory of ''Literature/PieceOfMyHeart'', Lou "Finn" Finney was a popular and well-loved man in his neighbourhood, especially with his bar patrons. No one had a bad thing to say about him save for Darren Gunther (the man convicted of his murder), who tried to claim Finn pulled a knife on him and then fell on his own blade, which no one believed for a second. After realising he'd been stabbed trying to break up a brawl, the patrons intervened in the fight themselves and made a citizen's arrest, while a patron who found the murder weapon kept watch over it until the cops arrived. There was mass outrage over Finn's death and the police were under a lot of pressure to get a conviction quickly.
148	* ''Literature/TheStormlightArchive''
149	** Meridas Amaram is considered by everyone to be a paragon of Alethi values, an upstanding and honorable lord who treats opponents fairly and is even [[NiceToTheWaiter extremely kind to those in his service]]. Unfortunately, he's not as good as he appears, which Kaladin Stormblessed suffered for. However, his sparkling public image is also lightly lampshaded and played with, as Adolin Kholin is the one person to believe Kaladin that he isn't as much of a paragon as he puts on because anyone who has such a good reputation free from any blemish must have been putting in the effort to be hiding something.
150	** King Gavilar was beloved by all Alethi characters in the books, to the point where his assassination at the hands of Szeth led to the formerly divided Alethi highprinces forming a "Bloodpact" to go to war with the people responsible for Gavilar's death. However, it's slowly revealed that Gavilar was much darker than he first appeared, with megalomania and dreams of attaining godhood.

Of note is one young punk who picks up the victim's wallet after the killer discards it, and takes out some cash.

In "iMeet Fred", after Freddie politely says he doesn't like the Fred show and Fred reacts by saying he's quit making videos, Freddie becomes a social pariah who gets blacklisted from all of his clubs and regularly gets beaten on the street, and not a single mention is made of any Fred hatedom (and hoo boy, does one exist in real life) praising Freddie or defending him.
163	* ''Series/{{Oz}}'': Augustus Hill is about as well-liked as a prisoner in a maximum-security prison can get. Prisoners of various different gangs all genuinely enjoy his company, while most of the prison staff likes him for being [[TheAtoner one of the few genuinely repentant inmates]].

164	* ''Series/ParksAndRecreation'': By far the most beloved denizen of Pawnee is Lil' Sebastian, a miniature horse. Even the stoic Ron Swanson gets giddy in his presence.

165	* ''Series/SesameStreet'':

As demonstrated when [[EveryoneHasStandards they all united]] to beat the crap out of Priapus after he [[NearRapeExperience tried and failed to rape her]].
174	** Patroclus seemed to be this; the entirety of the Greek army flips out when he dies, and even his various captured concubines mourn him.
175	* Myth/NorseMythology: Baldr, the god of light, beauty, purity, and the summer sun. He was so loved that, when he died, all objects alive and dead wept for him (except the giantess Thökk, often presumed to be Baldr's murderer in disguise, Loki).

The only major character besides Rudyard who dislikes Eric is Georgie, who starts out opposing him simply because she works for Rudyard, but later develops a genuine IrrationalHatred of the man.

183	* ''Theatre/InTheHeights'': Nina is beloved by her Latino Washington Heights community for her bright promise as a first-generation college student, so much so that her homecoming from college is anticipated by much of the neighborhood. This makes it even harder for her to admit that she had to drop out after she lost her scholarship, but is also what brings her back around by the end of the play. The only time anyone has anything truly unkind to say about Nina is when Benny drunkenly blames her for her father's actions, which he apologizes for after the blackout.
184	* ''Theatre/NatashaPierreAndTheGreatCometOf1812'': Natasha is young, rich, spirited, pretty, and charming. She's pretty confident about meeting her future in-laws the Bolkonskys because according to her, "everyone has always liked me". When they ''don't'' like her, it throws her for a loop.

This increases, at least on the poor's side, when he becomes the leader of the rebellion, [[spoiler:making his Act 2 death particularly tragic]].

187
188	[[folder:Video Games]]
189	* ''VideoGame/{{Deltarune}}'': Nubert, a character introduced in Chapter 2, claims that everybody loves him, and this is reflected well in dialogue as people have nothing but nice things to say about him, with Susie and Ralsei saying "My man!" whenever he appears.
190	* ''VideoGame/Persona5'': Akechi is a teen celebrity detective known for his prodigious intelligence and charming personality, and is beloved by the public. However, the Phantom Thieves dislike him for his public criticisms of their methods. He's contrasted against Joker, who is reviled by everyone but his closest friends, while Akechi has no real friends among his fans. This changes after Medjed is defeated and he loses some popularity for speaking out against the Thieves. [[spoiler:In ''Royal'' his true, disturbed and violent personality is displayed, and this, along with his having killed some of the Thieves' parents, makes him extremely hard to like]].
191	* In ''VideoGame/PotionPermit'', Dr. Nestor hopes the Chemist can gain the trust of the residents by curing them and helping them with their problems. Over the course of the game, the pricklier residents like Derrek and Garret [[DefrostingIceKing slowly warm up to the Chemist]], [[spoiler:and when the latter restores Moonbury's natural areas and clears up the misunderstanding between the town and the Medical Association, everyone lauds them for their accomplishments and officially considers them as a Moonbury resident]].
192	* ''VideoGame/Psychonauts2'' features Nick Johnsmith, the Psychonauts' mailroom man who is openly loved by everyone else in the organization - even surly types like Agent Oleander - with the sole exception of agency head Truman Zanotto, who Lili informs Raz thinks he seems like a suck-up.

193	* ''Franchise/SuperMarioBros'':
194	** Mario himself is extremely popular and loved by pretty much everyone who meets him. He’s such a NiceGuy and is always willing to help anyone who is in danger. His heroism and bravery also make him loved by not just the citizens of the Mushroom Kingdom but even foreign countries like the BeanBean Kingdom and Isle Delfino. Heck even Bowser, his ArchEnemy, who hates him still has respect for him and admits he’s the right guy to be his nemesis. It’s quite telling that Mario is even able to make friends with people who were his enemies once, like Vivian and Donkey Kong, just because he is that nice.
195	** Princess Peach is another universally loved person. She is adored by every single one of her subjects but her kind and sweet nature makes it easy for people from other kingdoms to take an instant liking to her.

199	* In ''WebAnimation/BattleForBFDI'', Loser, a newcomer to the show, gained attention and love from all the other contestants, who thought he was charming and intelligent. Some of his fans, such as Clock and Cake, wanted to be on the same team as him, and they were accepted into the team, which was named "The Losers", after him. Subverted in episode 7, where Fanny recognized that Loser used to play with eye poppers all the time, even though they had been invented only an hour ago. This resulted in Loser being either loved or hated by the contestants.
200	* ''WebAnimation/TheMostPopularGirlsInSchool'': Everyone at Overland Park High -- {{Alpha Bitch}}es, jocks, losers, ''everyone'' -- adores Amberlynn. Her genuinely kind nature and friendliness have made her the ClassPrincess; while she's too nice to get to the top of the food chain, everyone genuinely ''likes'' her and wishes her well, which is more than any of the other popular girls in the series can say. The sole exception is Jenna Darabond, and her dislike of Amberlynn is shown to highlight how awful she is. [[spoiler:Shay also drunkenly calls her "fake," which shocks everyone, but Amberlynn is more sad to hear it than angry, saying, "I need to work on myself."]]

204	* ''Website/SCPFoundation'': A lot of the more benevolent [=SCPs=] are well-liked by the staff, but [[BlobMonster SCP-999]] is the best and most well-known example, which is justified because of how friendly it is and how anyone who touches it gets overcome with a wave of euphoria.

The rest of the episode centers on Stan trying to get such an approval rating, and when he fails, [[DisproportionateRetribution he settles for simply having everyone deported]]. This ultimately backfires when he nearly chokes to death [[HoistByHisOwnPetard and there's literally no one around to help him]], until one of the neighbor kids arrives to save him, proceeding to show how [[HardTruthAesop the neighbors also insult and criticize each other, not just Stan in particular]].
209	* ''WesternAnimation/CaptainPlanetAndThePlaneteers'': Pretty much the only people in the show who would consider harming Ma-Ti, physically or emotionally, are the eco-villains.

Come ‘’WesternAnimation/HeyArnoldTheJungleMovie'' people who helped over the help show a video of how he has helped them, so he could win a trip to San Lorenzo.
213	* ''WesternAnimation/HouseOfMouse'': WesternAnimation/MickeyMouse is universally loved by almost everyone ''in the entire Disney-universe'' (with CrankyLandlord Pete and the jealous Mortimer Mouse and WesternAnimation/DonaldDuck being the rare exceptions), succesfully running a club which main purpose is to show cartoons of himself.
214	* ''WesternAnimation/IAmWeasel'': The titular Weasel is an extremely beloved public figure who goes out of his way to help everyone with his genius intelligence.
215	* ''WesternAnimation/JusticeLeagueUnlimited'': "Flash and Substance" shows that the citizens all adore The Flash, and even his RoguesGallery is respectful of him. He even manages to convince [[TheStoic Batman]] to attend the opening of a museum in his honor. Part of is because he's a genuine friend of the citizens of Central City, he knows his fans by their names, he helps them out doing little things, and he even treats some of his enemies as people.
216	* ''WesternAnimation/LetsGoLuna'': Luna the Moon is loved by everyone on the planet, being treated as a celebrity.
217	* ''WesternAnimation/TheMask'': The Mask is very well-liked and loved by most people in Edge City due to his sweet nature, charisma charm, a {{Nice Guy}} and that he protects and saves them from the supervillains who attack there though he is not well-liked by the police due to his chaotic and wild nature and the supervillains as well also due to him being a {{Troll}} along with pulling wedgies on them which causes them to hate and fear him to the point they ended up having a meeting because the one thing they have in common is that they want The Mask gone but only to find out he's been with them the whole time disguised which after being found out he defeats all of them in just a few seconds.
218	* ''WesternAnimation/MiraculousLadybug'':
219	** [[Characters/MiraculousLadybugMarinetteDupainCheng Marinette Dupain-Cheng]], both in and out of her hero mask, is this trope. As Ladybug, she is the city's savior who bravely defends the people against Hawk Moth and wins the SingleTargetSexuality of her partner. In her civilian life, she is the ClassPrincess who gets along with everyone and is always willing to help. She even wins the approval of the adults around her. The only two people who don't hold some sort of affection towards her are [[AlphaBitch Chloé]] and [[BitchInSheepsClothing Lila]] (and [[EvenTheLovingHeroHasHatedOnes the feeling's mutual]]).
220	** [[Characters/MiraculousLadybugAdrienAgreste Adrien Agreste]] is also this, in and out of his hero mask. As Cat Noir, he's a beloved hero who is well-liked by citizens, and even his partner Ladybug cares for him even though she doesn't return his romantic feelings. In his civilian life, he's a popular model and one of the most loved students at school. Unlike Marinette, he's liked even by Chloé and Lila, who both have an EntitledToHaveYou attitude toward him.
221	* ''WesternAnimation/PeppaPig'': Daddy Pig is well-liked by all characters. Most prominently, in the episode "Valentine's Day", everyone becomes sad when learning that Daddy Pig didn't get a Valentine's card. [[spoiler:In the end, they give him a ''whole sack'' of cards.]]

Phineas and Ferb have even been able to make friends around the world.
223	* ''WesternAnimation/ReadyJetGo'': Every single character on the show loves Jet, and [[AllLovingHero he loves them back]].

Mitchell wants to expose Jet's alien identity but comes to respect and befriend him over the course of the show.
224	* ''WesternAnimation/{{Recess}}'': TJ is the most beloved kid on the playground. So much so, that one episode made a huge deal about someone ''[[SomebodyDoesntLoveRaymond not]]'' liking him.
225	* ''WesternAnimation/RegularShow'': Rigby's brother Don is a ParodySue example. As seen in the episode "Don", he is an overly friendly GentleGiant who is loved by everyone except his brother Rigby, who resents him for being more popular than him, since even Rigby's friends seem to like Don more than Rigby himself. He eventually makes peace with Rigby too.
226	* ''WesternAnimation/StarWarsTheBadBatch'': Avi Singh, a Raxus senator, is really likeable to his subordinates and thus very beloved. Captain Bragg even [[ExploitedTrope exploited]] this by having him endorse the imperial occupation of the planet.
227	* ''WesternAnimation/StevenUniverse'': [[Characters/StevenUniverseStevenQuartzUniverse Steven Quartz Universe]] is an AllLovingHero and everyone loves him back. He's been able to deal with jerks, bullies, and [[BreadEggsMilkSquick Homeworld Gems]], reforming them in the process. Zig-zagged, however, as by the end of the franchise, the only characters left that Steven has not been able to reason with/befriend are [[spoiler:Aquamarine/Eyeball (aka Bluebird Azurite), Kevin, and Marty]]. Steven is ultimately able to win over [[spoiler:Jasper]], albeit in a ''very'' messed-up way. He also becomes [[spoiler:beloved by the Diamonds]].
228	* ''WesternAnimation/ThomasAndFriends'':
229	** Bullies/villains like Spencer aside, Thomas is adored by every engine on the show. Even foes/disagreeable characters like Diesel and Cranky respect him from time to time.
230	** Edward is also universally beloved. Though he's often teased about his age, his detractors are always proven wrong and start to respect him instead. In fact, despite teasing him in the past, Gordon had a full-on meltdown when Edward left Tidmouth Sheds. It says a lot that Edward is ''the'' only engine that the Troublesome Trucks respect.
231	* ''WesternAnimation/TotalDrama'': DJ is liked by nearly everyone in the cast with none having anything bad to say about him. During his elimination, even Chris, who is the complete opposite of this trope, tells DJ that despite being eliminated, he will be missed. Cue to all of the other contestants including ''[[AlphaBitch Heather]]'' joining in on a group hug with him before he was sent off.
232	* ''WesternAnimation/TransformersBotBots'': Sprinkleberry is loved by every Botbot in the mall, so when it appears the Lost Bots had something to do with his sudden disappearance, everyone turns against them.
