'''Basic Trope''': The [[AlwaysFemale usually female]] supporter of a villain.
* '''Straight''': The criminal Bob has ''finally'' been arrested for his crimes. While in jail, however, he receives fanmail from Alice, who staunchly supports him.
* '''Exaggerated''': Bob attracts a horde of devoted fangirls like Alice, all of whom proclaim their undying love and support for him.
* '''Downplayed''':
** Alice knew Bob before he committed the crime and visits him in prison, but doesn't like him ''because'' he became a villain.
** AllGirlsWantBadBoys
* '''Justified''':
** In following the case, Alice has become ''convinced'' that Bob is innocent of the crimes he's been convicted of, and is determined to set right this apparent miscarriage of justice.
** Bob is a charming ManipulativeBastard who convinces Alice that her love has redeemed him.
** Alice is a NightmareFetishist.
** Alice has [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hybristophilia hybristophilia]].
** Alice wants him to be her [[OutlawCouple partner in crime]].
** Alice is [[BirdsOfAFeather also a criminal]].
* '''Inverted''': Bob is Alice's StalkerWithACrush.
* '''Gender-Inverted''': Criminal Alice is arrested for her crimes, while in jail, she receives fanmail from Bob, who respects and supports her endeavors.
* '''Subverted''': Alice actually ''hates'' Bob, and is just claiming otherwise in order to get close enough to exact revenge.
* '''Double Subverted''': ...But as she keeps doing research, spending more time getting to know him, she winds up BecomingTheMask.
* '''Parodied''': Bob is actually intimidated by his fangirls; before being escorted past a mob of them, he begs the officers to protect him.
* '''Zig Zagged''': Alice continually realizes Bob's depravity, but there's a ResetButton at the end of every episode, and she's back to idolizing him.
* '''Averted''': Bob has no fans. Only detractors, haters and enemies.
* '''Enforced''': The author is trying to make a point about how criminals become celebrities in real life.
* '''Lampshaded''': "Bob's a SerialKiller! WhatDoesSheSeeInHim"
* '''Invoked''': At his trial, Bob plays the victim, [[CrocodileTears faking tears]] and pleading his innocence. He does so not because he's actually innocent ''or'' because he thinks the jury will believe him, but to tug the heartstrings of any sufficiantly emotionally pilable potential fangirls who might be following the case. He then carefully sifts through any letters or e-mails he receives, looking for easy marks.
* '''Exploited''': Bob's victims are all {{Monster Fangirl}}s, the more he kills the more he attracts, which he finds terribly convenient.
* '''Defied''': Bob is not allowed to receive mail or make any kind of public statement that might cause this.
* '''Discussed''': ???
* '''Conversed''': ???
* '''Deconstructed''': Alice latches onto Bob because he makes her feel like she ''means'' something to him, providing a sense of love and support she hasn't found elsewhere. Her friends and family turning on her over her caring for such a monster only reinforces her belief that he's the only one who ''really'' cares. When he decides [[YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness she isn't useful anymore]] and murders her, her death is mocked and her own damn fault, receiving little sympathy.
* '''Reconstructed''': Alice had a supportive family and friends who stood by her even as they tried gently turning her away from Bob. She rejected their attempts to help escape his influence, and her death is treated as a tragedy simply because it feels ''preventable'', with her loved ones wondering if there was anything else they could have ''done'' to save her...
* '''Played For Laughs''': Bob's squealing fangirl hordes are a clear TakeThat to his DracoInLeatherPants [[invoked]]FanDumb, complete with spouting the usual cliche justifications for his monstrous actions and sometimes even going as far as using InsaneTrollLogic to justify his actions.
* '''Played For Drama''':
** Alice, a deluded {{Yandere}}, targets the officers who arrested Bob, [[InsaneTrollLogic reasoning]] that if they hadn't taken him to jail, she might've met him under better circumstances and been able to start a new life together.
** With Alice's aid from outside, Bob is able to escape prison and go on the run.
