Yeah, I\'d agree. I assumed that it actually \'\'was\'\' one before, when talking about the UBW Good and UBW True endings of FateStayNight, which are, to me, undoubtedly {{EsotericHappyEnding}}s ([[spoiler:it\'s played as a happy ending, but poor Sakura is stuck being raped by penis worms for the forseeable future whilst her sister (who is not aware of her situation, and would be devestated if she found out) runs away to London with the guy she loves (who has been her only source of support and happiness for the last four years), plus Ilya died a painful death and Rider died pathetically fighting for a master she hated]]), but many other people do not agree with that. In the end, it depends on your feelings about the characters (who you care for and how much you think Sakura\'s situation will affect Rin) and where you think the story will go from there.

When I added it to the page, I got into an argument with someone else, who said that it wasn\'t such an ending and that it didn\'t matter what \'\'I\'\' thought because this wasn\'t a subjective trope, even though similar tropes like MissedMomentOfAwesome are classed as \

Tropers/BelieveItOrNot seems to think \

Tropers/BelieveItOrNot seems to think \\\"MyCountryRightOrWrong\\\" is really \\\"PatrioticFervor Always Makes You Evil, Especially If You\\\'re American.\\\" Not only that, but his ideas of a trope getting played with often don\\\'t line up with the definitions of the tropes. He also made some horrendous entries that looked like they were made chiefly to sneak in an insult toward the United States and Americans, [[RuleOfCautiousEditingJudgement something that is a very big no-no]].

I think he\\\'s trying to make those articles into his personal {{Take That}}s against the United States, aside from his lack of comprehension concerning the meaning of this trope.
