Rate the above trope.

5/10. Depends on how meta it's trying to be, but often an immersion killer.

2/10 - creepy, and it feels lazy when Played for Laughs. has potential when Played for Drama or something, but i haven't seen it

7/10. It can be cool to see a character like that.

4/10 - It really depends on the style of story but it tends to be bland and unproductive.

The Scrappy

4/10. I can see why some people dislike characters enough that they happen to be scrappies.

4/10 - Honor Among Thieves is always nice to see, and I don't like it being averted.

Clever Crows

6/10

I like that the media gives an accurate depiction of the intelligience of crows and the ways use their enviroments and create tools to help them gain their food is intriguing from a scientific standpoint. Besides that, I don't have much to say on this Trope

Villain Song

9/10: You need to know the motivation of the villain, and this is how you do it in a musical work.

No Good Deed Goes Unpunished

4/10. I really dislike it when a good deed ends up backfiring on the person.

0/10. I prefer pragmatism to losing in the end due to having to maintain "honor".

Clock Roaches

3/10 Doesn't ruin a story for me, but it's part of a larger issue I have with stories caring way more about time paradoxes than they should.

A Day in the Limelight

10/10. A good way to develop characters who might not have gotten any development otherwise.

Canon Character All Along

10/10. It can be really cool to see how they became said character.

Dashing Hispanic

6/10, haven't seen it often but I like honor bound type characters anyways and as a Hispanic person myself (my mom's Panamanian) I don't have any issue with the portrayals I've seen of it

Gentleman Thief

7/10. It's a cliché, but it's a cliché that I like, at least.

Spared by the Adaptation

6/10. Depends on whether or not the character deserves to survive, or if their death is a major development that's not meant to be reverted.

7/10. It's great when an Ambiguous Ending gets proper closure.

9/10. As long as the redemption feels real, it's always nice to see a character being rewarded for redemption instead of punished.

Hidden Heart of Gold

9/10. Makes for great Hidden Depths.

7/10. Can make interesting characters if done well.

I Want My Beloved to Be Happy

8/10. It shows the maturity of the character if they choose to accept that the person they're interested in is actually in love with someone else.

5/10 annoying,but neutral towards the trope for the most part.

Everything is Bigger in Texas

5/10. Neutral on it.

Only in It for the Money

9/10 - i think it's funny. big fan of Punch-Clock Villains and Punch-Clock Heroes.

7/10. Usually an interesting perspective, but best done if the person wearing them isn't a complete downer.
