Basic Trope: The Hero and The Lancer get into a fight.

  • Straight: Hiro and Lance get into an argument which ends up both getting into fist cuffs.
  • Exaggerated:
    • Hiro and Lance spend the entire episode beating the hell out of each other.
    • The fight between Hiro and Lance escalates into a Duel to the Death.
  • Downplayed: Hiro and Lance's fight only lasts a few minutes.
  • Justified:
  • Inverted:
    • Emperor Evulz gets into a fight with Dracone.
    • Hiro and Evulz, despite being mortal enemies, share a civil conversation.
  • Subverted: Hiro and Lance were going to fight until they hear cries of help from a group of citizens.
  • Double Subverted: After the deed is done, they begin fighting.
  • Parodied: Hiro and Lancer get into a physical fight over who ate the last bagel.
  • Zig Zagged: ???
  • Averted: Hiro and Lance never get into a fight.
  • Enforced: "Let's have Hiro and Lance duke it out! The fans are gonna eat this up!"
  • Lampshaded: "I never thought we would be fighting each other. I'm okay with it!"
  • Invoked: Emperor Evulz knows how Hiro and Lance are a force to be reckoned with when together, and manipulates them into fighting each other to give the group a huge disadvantage.
  • Exploited: Evulz attacks Hiro and Lance when they are weakened from fighting each other.
  • Defied: Brian stops Hiro and Lance from engaging in a battle.
  • Discussed: "I know Hiro and Lance have their differences, but their fighting needs to stop!"
  • Conversed: "Alright! Hiro and Lance are fighting! I've been waiting for this to happen all season long!"
  • Implied: Hiro and Lance start yelling at each other, and the scene cuts away. The next time we see Hiro and Lance, both are quite bruised.
