For the example discussed, WillingSuspensionOfDisbelief doesn\'t really apply, it\'s simple logical thought. But don\'t fret, what you\'re experiencing is frankly the common reaction Arena proponents have (and have similar backgrounds too).

People who knew the characters before hand, tend towards the opposite camp.

But, the big question and real focus should be, does that mean you are okay with that trope entry from the start?

But, the big question and real focus should be, does that mean you are okay with that trope entry from the start? CharacterShilling. Does Arcade have it? Well, I see it there, or something very similar. Will you stand against it still?

It . . . has some negative implications related to the while ToughActToFollow by basically setting it up as Popcorn fiction: no depth, no remembrance. It exists and can be enjoyed, but then. . . it\'s forgotten but for a salty aftertaste. And possibly a coughing fit.

But don\'t fret, what you\'re experiencing is frankly the common reaction Arena proponents have (and have similar backgrounds too). Unfortunately, it sort of builds to the shallowness of the whole thing. It\'s enjoyed for the moment, then forgotten.

The few reblogs overall that it gets on Tumblr, the minimal fanart (1/3rd of it was an art jam for one character, the other third (and most popular pieces) mock it), etc. add to that idea.

But that\'s neither here nor there, I just find it interesting.

To the deaths, well, it brings up the problem of HighConcept striking into Character Driven narratives. The characters are too rich for the roles given and thus they end up wasted in the role. They aren\'t characters, they\'re cogs in a machine.

I have said this in the archived discussion but nobody commented: Is it really necessary to have [[WesternAnimation/KingOfTheHill Arlen]] on this list? We know the country and state, and there is a given name for the city. There\'s even a name for the county It might be a fictional one, but it\'s still miles more established than many of the other setting examples on this list.
