* HugeGuyTinyGirl: Roman is fairly tall at about 6\\\' 6\\\", while Neo stands somewhere around \\\'\\\'4\\\' 10\\\", \\\'\\\'\\\'including\\\'\\\'\\\' her heeled boots\\\'\\\', the shortest character in the show. To further emphasize this, Yang, who is shorter than Roman, is still a full head taller than Neo when they get into a staredown right before their fight in \\\"No Brakes\\\".

Question about this example. By RWBY\\\'s [[https://scontent-a-lhr.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-xfa1/t31.0-8/10604608_651234038324805_1451554503241425760_o.jpg height chart]], Roman is clearly not particularly tall when compared to the other men and boys on the chart. According to this trope, both paired characters have to be at opposite ends, if one isn\\\'t, it\\\'s a different trope (OneHeadTaller). However, OneHeadTaller has a description that doesn\\\'t fit with the suggested use on HugeGuyTinyGirl.

Neo seems to be designed to be tiny by comparison to absolutely everyone, not simply to contrast with Roman, especially since he\\\'s not excessively tall by the male standards of the show.

Is this really an example?
