* '''Deconstructed''': Whenever Emperor Evulz appear in his long black cape and black helmet, people tend to avoid or even ostracize him, because everyone is already aware of this trope. Not only when he is trying to take over the world, but also when he tries to go shopping.
* '''Reconstructed''': Enter a mysterious man with a beard in a pristine white cloak with a face-concealing hood. Everyone thinks he is a harmless old sage... but then he throws his cloak and a fake beard away, and we see Emperor Evulz in a coal-black sharp suit.
