* ''WebAnimation/DragonShortZ'': after spending the entirety of ''WebVideo/DragonBallZAbridged'' as the ButtMonkey of the Z Warriors, died once, lost his girlfriend to the ''guy that killed him'', and found himself increasingly irrelevant as a mere human CantCatchUp to the power of the Saiyans, Yamcha finally gets [[ThrowTheDogABone thrown a bone]] as, while he ''is'' fired from the baseball team he's on (for being ''too'' good), he's also given a 20 billion zeni payout and can still take sponsorship deals, which he uses to invest in the biggest drink company in the world and a successful restaurant franchise, making him one of the richest men in the world.

Disambiguated.


* ''WebVideo/CounterMonkey'': "The Last Ride of [[SpoonyBard Tandem the Spoony.]]" After making it through a horrendously difficult campaign against all odds, Tandem and the only other survivor find themselves with a ship that can cross dimensions, so they first go home to resurrect their friends, and then everyone was last seen sailing away to whatever adventures await them next.

* ''Roleplay/RubyQuest'' is a CosmicHorrorStory featuring plenty of BodyHorror and mental corruption. ''It's got a happy ending''. It's also a more literal example of this trope, as players earned their happy ending by going OffTheRails several times, like [[spoiler: tranquilizing Stitches (which they couldn't have done without a DungeonBypass) and giving him the Group Portrait, motivating him to come back for a BigDamnHeroes moment, and saving Jay, who they were supposed to MercyKill]]. Them being both very creative and [[SurprisinglyHappyEnding surprisingly]] [[VideoGameCaringPotential kind]] got them the GoldenEnding.

* Most of the time, a CharacterArc in ''Roleplay/SurvivalOfTheFittest'' has a BittersweetEnding at best, due to the fact that [[KillEmAll almost the entire cast will die]]. However, in version four [[spoiler:STAR comes in to rescue students as long as they're not actively playing the game and come forward for it]]. As a result, this was how a portion of characters' storylines ended.

* Year 3 (episodes 50-70) of ''Podcast/WelcomeToNightVale''. After a year of [[TheNarrator Cecil]] growing increasingly more depressed, unhappy, and discontent to the point of nearly leaving town, a misunderstanding that nearly cost him a close friendship, and desperately missing [[LoveInterest Carlos]], everything is resolved in one night. [[spoiler:Carlos returns to stay, Cecil and Dana's friendship is on the mend, Night Vale has a wonderful new opera house, and [[OurDragonsAreDifferent Hiram]] is finally jailed for his crimes (except for [[TokenGoodTeammate Violet]].) The only person left unhappy is [[StepfordSmiler Kevin]].]]

* WebVideo/MattMcMuscles: ''Wha Happun?'' covers disastrous [[TroubledProduction productions]]/releases of video games and some movies and these almost always end with a DownerEnding regarding a hated release, layoffs, studio closures, etc. However, ''VideoGame/GoldenEye1997'', ''VideoGame/DemonsSouls'', ''VideoGame/Doom2016'', and ''VideoGame/MetroidPrime'', in spite of the insanely long and difficult journeys it took to get to release and the [[AndYouThoughtItWouldFail complete lack of faith from everyone]], all ended up becoming seen as landmark games that either had a massive impact on their entire genre (with at least one creating a whole new [[SoulsLikeRPG subgenre]]), or saved their franchises from potentially fading into irrelevancy in the mainstream consciousness, or both.

In particular, ''VideoGame/GoldenEye1997'', ''VideoGame/DemonsSouls'', ''VideoGame/Doom2016'', and ''VideoGame/MetroidPrime'', in spite of the insanely long and difficult journeys it took to get to release and the [[AndYouThoughtItWouldFail complete lack of faith from everyone]], all ended up becoming seen as landmark games that either had a massive impact on their entire genre (with at least one creating a whole new [[SoulsLikeRPG subgenre]]), or saved their franchises from potentially fading into irrelevancy in the mainstream consciousness, or both.
