7/10. If it's done right, it can be quite sad. If done poorly, it can fail to make the murderer sympathetic or understandable.

[up] 5/10. In some contexts it can be a pretty effective tool for either comedy or drama, while in others it can signify a really disappointing and unsatisfying end to a story or arc.

Gosh Dang It to Heck!

5/10

It depends! I think it's very funny when pulled off right, but it can come off as odd when used in certain situations.

7/10. I like arrogant characters if they're charming enough for me to Love to Hate, but I don't really see that in this trope. If there are any examples of this trope Played for Laughs, though, I'd love to see them!

The Devil Is a Loser

I haven't played the particular game that Tango is from, but still... robo kitty. :D

7/10 it can work well in a comedic sense, or in a karmic way.

7.5. Anything that challenges traditional gender roles is aight in my book.

Speaking of which...

4/10. Usually leads to an unsatisfying ending in my opinion. Although, I've liked it the few times I've seen it done for comedic effect.

5/10. I do find some trolls (like the one from Frozen) amusing, but most of the time, they give me nightmares.

6/10 can be good, as long as it's not too ugly.

[up] 8/10. We often think of "purity" as an inherently positive quality, and it's cool to see that subverted sometimes.

Slapstick Knows no Gender

9/10, becaus it's amusing to see a subversion of male slapstick, like Twilight Sparkle.

Humans Are Cthulhu

9/10. I love seeing the creative ways that people can just make completely insane and illogical arguments for their various characters.

Sarcastic Title

8/10. It can be pretty cool and thought-provoking - sort of makes me expect a subtle story where the creator has a Message, but understands all the other sides and only arrived at his/her own by some thorough thinking.
