Sue is Flame Bait. MEH can only be crossed once.


* MarySue: Some readers of the fic have debated whether or not Riley is this trope (she basically wanders into the plot, all of the characters talk about her constantly, she's the catalyst for several events, she's considered one of the team's more powerful members, etc). Just as many argue [[DefiedTrope against it]], stating that the characters talk about her because (a) she's new in town (same as Tip) as well as the newest member of their friend group, (b) she has flipping super powers, (c) she went into a catatonic state for at least a week, and (d) she's Hiro's first girlfriend. Her status as the main character (despite it still being Hiro's story) is also a reason for this.
* MoralEventHorizon: [[spoiler: The Gorg crosses this a few times: kidnapping Abigail and holding her hostage, threatening to kill her if Callaghan doesn't comply with its wishes, starting an alien invasion on the Earth. All because its egg came to Earth.]]

Not a YMMV trope.


* {{Expy}}: Considering how he's an older man who is a master of martial arts and spends his free time giving advice to young adults and teenagers, one could argue that Takahito is an expy of Iroh from ''WesternAnimation/AvatarTheLastAirbender''
