  • Complicated Relationship: Daniel LaRusso
  • Johnny Lawrence was a school student who excelled in karate and was relatively popular. However, he wasn't a good person to be around with, which Daniel LaRusso learned the hard way. Johnny would hound and bully him whenever he could, resulting in Johnny's then-girlfriend, Ali Mills, to break up with him. After a Halloween beating on Daniel with his Cobra Kai comrades and being repelled by Mr. Miyagi, Johnny would agree to face Daniel in the All-Valley Karate Tournament 1984. Despite trying his hardest, Johnny lost to Daniel, after which he accepted his defeat and presented the trophy to his Arch-Enemy.
    • However, through all of this, Johnny was a person who struggled to adjust to a stable life, as his mother resorted to becoming a Gold Digger to support her only child. This further worsened after his loss to Daniel when his sensei, John Kreese broke Johnny's runner-up trophy and later began choking him, almost to death. This destroyed Johnny emotionally and mentally, being unable to actually move on from his defeat at the treatment Kreese gave him. While Daniel would later become a successful businessman, Johnny would become a strung-up alcoholic who would take failing jobs and have no one to maintain contact with. Furthermore, he has a son, Robby Keene, whom he barely takes the time to hang out with. This all changed when he encountered a Millennial youth, Miguel Diaz. Initially refusing to talk to him, Johnny would later save him from a gang of bullies who were harassing Miguel. After some time and a few events, one of which involved his car and Daniel's daughter Samantha, Johnny decided to bring back the then-abandoned Cobra Kai and enlist Miguel as his student, hoping that as sensei, he would help in developing the new generation in fighting and defending themselves.
    • Through all of this, Johnny is also seeking to find a way to reconnect with his son, but Robby is unwilling to go ahead with it, thinking of his father as a loser. Gets further complicated when Robby becomes a student to Daniel, ruining a potential truce, and later with Robby dating Samantha, the situation has become more mangled. Despite this, Johnny still loves his son.
  • Johnny's entrance in the Pantheon was bombastic, with a fancy car and booming Rock Music. This unfortunately caught the attention of Daniel, who, as usual, felt frustrated that Johnny has once again returned. As the two met each other again, Johnny has stated that he is trying to be a better person and that he wants to help the people he enlists, to which Daniel scoffed, citing the situation Johnny's Cobra Kai is going through. The two did however state that they'd be willing to patch things up, although random situations ruin any chance of reconciliation whenever they try. Even then, it's reached the point where they've realized that things will only get worse for everyone unless they can finally bury the hatchet somehow.
  • Normally, Johnny would be teaching and training his students in how to defend themselves and how there is no mercy when outside of regulated fighting (e.g. tournaments) Unfortunately, as most people have attested, while Johnny is not wrong about how fighting works and that he has genuinely good intentions at heart, he is unknowingly teaching his students what Kreese taught him, thus resulting in the students becoming more aggressive and reactive. Having noticed these when Miguel won the 2018 All-Valley Karate Tournament, Johnny is doing his best to make sure he doesn't lead his students astray.
  • Johnny is still not a nice guy. Despite having gotten older, he is still prone to being condescending and rude towards other and making same rather sensitive comments towards others. His training regime is also rather hard, some of which could potentially cause serious harm for the uninitiated. Despite all of this however, Johnny is trying to make an effort in becoming a better person. And the students who manage to get past his training are very loyal and respectful of their sensei. Johnny reciprocates this feeling, something which earns him the respect of many Combat-Based deities, such as Ken Masters, Johnny Cage and Dudley.
    • Has a rivalry with Ryu and Danny Rand, both of which have caught Johnny's respect. Ryu and Danny aren't exactly optimistic about what Johnny teaches to his students, but they do praise him in the aspect that he wants to be better than he was back then. Liu Kang isn't so cooperative. He state that Johnny isn't teaching his students discipline, which he feels would hamper a student's emotional and mental capacity to register appropriate responses other than to be violent. Johnny has since concurred.
  • Is often seen in the House of Sports, eager to challenge skilled fighters. He was impressed watching TJ Combo who's fighting stance was something Johnny was willing to learn, despite TJ being a boxer. Being a Disco Dan, he often has fantasies about Tifa Lockhart, Hitomi, Yang Xiao Long and Tina Armstrong in his mind. When it comes to meeting the girls in real life, Johnny remains cordial with them and likes the fact that they're all powerful women in their own right.
  • Is friends with Barney Stinson in the sense that Barney looks up to Johnny as a protagonist, and this was before he reopened Cobra Kai. Barney would often hang out with Johnny and even ask him to be taught karate. Additionally, rumour has it that LaRusso is a sociopath and that Johnny was the one who was bullied. Johnny and Barney find this hilarious, knowing this story frustrates Daniel to no end.
  • If there is one thing Johnny hates above all else, its using underhanded tactics in a fight and general cowardice. He immediately expressed a strong dislike towards Balrog and has made it clear he would like to beat the hell out of him. While he is nowhere near as strong as someone like M. Bison, Frost and Kars, he hates them for never really living up to their word, especially Frost upon finding out he tried to masquerade as a hero.
    • Normally, he wouldn't be too fond of Joseph Joestar, but after hearing of his victory against Kars, his honourable attitude beneath his boisterous and cocky demeanour and weird tactics that tend to work in his favour, Johnny has taken a strong liking for him. Johnny sometimes allows Joseph to speculate in his dojo should he feel like it.
  • Can be seen as a Foil towards Biff Tannen. Both of them were bullies during their high school years who would relentlessly torment another student and face a crushing defeat. However, Biff remained a bully throughout his adult years whereas Johnny ultimately wizened up and took measures in becoming a better person. As a result, Johnny has nothing but disdain for Biff, seeing him as a waste of time.
    • That said, he does like Draco Malfoy, given that he himself was put into a difficult situation at some point and became a better person because of it. It also helps in that both of them tend to be sympathized and adored by their fandom, despite some of their actions being unforgivable.
  • Has earned the approval of bullying hunting deities such as Jimmy Hopkins, Mikoto Mikasa and Matilda Wormwood. While the three of them are not going to forget Johnny's bullying behavior in the past, they do respect the fact that he is bettering himself as a person and that his beatdown on Kyler and his gang after the assaulted Miguel was well-deserving. Jimmy is thinking about approaching Johnny in teaching him karate, to which Johnny is eager to do.
  • Has a high amount of praise for several heroes, namely Superman, Captain America and Batman, namely because they are positive idealization of America that Johnny wishes to see. He also likes Son Goku mainly because his outlook on fighting is something Johnny he can respect. Flash Thompson is more personal matter, as Johnny can relate to him in the sense of personal redemption.
  • Talking about being a sensei is a sensitive topic for him, given how he feels about Kreese. And although he wouldn't say it, he admits that Mr. Miyagi was a much better sensei than Kreese would ever be, and sees why Daniel was able to live out a happy life. A chance encounter with Miyagi had him telling Johnny that there is still room for improvement and that there is never a bad student, only a bad teacher. These words have left Johnny with a strong impression, though he doesn't mention much about it.
  • In a surprising turn of events, John Kreese came back to look after and mentor Johnny after his victory in the All-Valley tournament. Initially starting well, Kreese would soon begin influencing the Cobra Kai students behind Johnny's back, and although Johnny threw Kreese out sometime after and tried to reconcile with Daniel, it all went to hell when the new generation Miyagi-Do and Cobra Kai students engaged in a massive, brutal brawl that ended in Johnny's star student, Miguel, being thrown off a flight of stairs by his son Robby, all because of a misunderstanding revolving around Samantha. Even his attempts to leave Kreese out of his life were for nothing as he forcibly took back Cobra Kai and his students, leaving Johnny with no one to be with and without a home.
    • This has caught the attention of Raiden who understands what Johnny has been through. He is currently trying to find Johnny in the hopes of guiding him to a better path and redemption if possible. So far, there is no report of what has happened to Johnny nor what he does does as of now, but Pantheon residents are clearly not hoping for the worst.

    Suzune Horikita 
Suzune Horikita, Goddess of Academic Alpha Bitches
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/suzune_horikita_anime.png
  • Demigoddess
  • Theme Song: Caste Room and Beautiful Soldier
  • Alignment: Lawful Good
  • Portfolio: Aloof Dark Haired Girls, Broken Aces, Friendless Background, Ice Queens, It's All About Me, Tsundere
  • Domains: Being Alone, Popular But Mean, School
  • Herald: Kiyotaka Ayanokouji.
  • Allies: Shido Itsuka, Origami Tobiichi, Spock, Hayate Immelman, Lux Arcadia, Shadow The Hedgehog, Mirage Farina Jenius, Celestia Ralgris, Princess Zelda, Honoka Mitsui, Hachiman Hikigaya
  • Opposes: Anyone who talks to her or attempts to befriend her, Sonic the Hedgehog, Nico Yazawa, Mordecai and Rigby, Haruhi Suzumiya, Issei Hyodo, Natsu Dragneel, Monkey D. Luffy
  • Pities: Benson
  • Enemies: Megatron, Albert Wesker, Charles zi Britannia, Heinz Windemere, Tsumugi Shirogane
  • A serious intellectual girl, who rarely shows any emotions and seems generally unfazed by most things, this was seen as she was unmoved by a boy from class 1-C threatening her. She comes off as rather cold to her classmates due to her lack of communication with them as well her tendency to distance herself from them. Because of this attitude, she is openly honest about many things, which is shown when she admits to having no friends as she thinks that friends will only serve to drag her down, but this begins to change as the series proceeds.
  • Possesses antisocial outlook that has caused to hardly talk to anyone except Kiyotaka (who she sits next to) and not to trust anyone like those who try to befriend her such as Kikyō Kushida. However, unlike Kiyotaka, who seeked to make friends, she is the opposite of him when it comes to friendship as she disregards it, thinking it as nothing more than a distraction and thinks of only getting promoted to the A-Class. It is highly suggested by Kiyotaka that her attitude was the reason she was placed in the class and her inability to work properly with people or her tendencies on focusing too much on her goal, that alone distracts her.
  • She is not easily convinced, as she refused to accept that she was placed in the class 1-D and strives to ascend to a higher class. This goal, however, was refuted by her brother, who suggested that she has no knowledge of her lack of character which is greatly holding her back. She refuses to believe that she needs friends to help her though she did force Kiyotaka to help her reach her goal. When Kiyotaka pointed out her isolation towards other could of been why she was place in D-Class, she quickly denied this theory but appeared to briefly ponder on it being a possibility as the reason.
  • She is very skilled in her studies as she makes sure to do so all the time while home alone. Suzune's dedication to keeping up her goal of advancing to A-Class, the class she believes she deserved in from the start.
  • Spock is impressed by her intelligence and logical thinking, considering them almost Vulcan qualities in Suzune. He has recommended her for Starfleet Academy, something she is seriously considering.
  • One day, when studying in the House of Knowledge, Suzune came across Shido Itsuka, who had confused her voice with that of his sister, Mana. Despite her reservations, she has accepted Shido's help in some of her schoolwork.
  • Through unknown circumstances, she has become acquainted with Hayate Immelman. Although his exuberance and lackadaisical nature irks her to no end, she admits his piloting skills would be useful against aggressors. For his part, Hayate sees much of his wingmate Mirage Jenius in her and hopes she can open up about her feelings like Mirage did.
  • Surprisingly, she has a soft spot towards Lux Arcadia. Although they both have suffered under the heel of abusive brothers, Manabu was nowhere as evil as Fugil. She is more amazed that Lux never became as jaded as her and struggles to make his world a better place than her own.
  • A random coincidence earned her a meeting with Hachiman Hikigaya, who saw much of his friend Yukino Yukinoshita in Suzune. Ultimately, they earned each other's respect thanks to their intelligence and observation skills. Also, Honoka Mitsui is very fond of Suzune, who at the very least tries to be cordial towards and is quick to compare her to Airi Sakura. She was even surprised to see Airi among Honoka's followers.
  • Not very fond of Tsumugi Shirogane for reminding her of Mio Ibuki. Considering what Tsumugi did, it's fair to say Suzune is right to stay away from her.
  • Thanks to Shido, Hayate and Lux; Suzune has become acquainted with Celestia Ralgris, Origami Tobiichi and Mirage Jenius. Surprised their intellectual similarities, the four girls became friends. Celestia, Origami and Mirage admit they were obsessed with becoming the best in their fields to make up for their inadequacies, but they were able to come to terms with their issues with the help of their male friends and encourage Suzune to be more friendly towards people.
    • Mirage did warn Suzune not to seek out Heinz Windermere, the source of the Var syndrome. Unfortunately, Heinz had already heard of Suzune and had her and Kiyotaka brought to his temple. He attempted to convince them that everything he did was for the good of his people. Suzune, having previously investigated Heinz's actions with information supplied by Mirage, coldly deconstructed Heinz, referring to his inability to actually rule his people and lack of political acumen. She even capped it off saying that perhaps Roid Brehm should be king of Windermere, because at least he would keep things running. Suzune's comments caused Heinz to have a nervous breakdown and his medics rushed to help him while Suzune and Kiyotaka took their life.
    Kiyotaka: "Well, that was harsh even for you, Horikita."
    Suzune: "He is not fit for leadership, Ayanokouji. It was about time somebody opened his eyes."
  • Enemies with Megatron, Albert Wesker and Charles zi Britannia for embodying the ruthless Social Darwinism that has segregated people in her world, albeit in different forms.
    • Suzune actually facepalmed when she heard that Charles didn't believe in social darwinism, he only uses it as a front to create "a world without lies", something to which Suzune understands would lead to social stagnation, because what is the point of truth if there are no lies to contrast it? Such observation earned her Lelouch vi Britannia's respect.
  • Doesn't really like Mordecai and Rigby for their laziness and infantile nature and pities Benson for having to put with them for so long. They do, however, admit they can be useful every once in a while.
  • Due to their cold, grumpy and stoic personalities, she and Shadow the Hedgehog did become friends. Shadow is gracious enough to visit her whenever he feels the need to get away from Sonic and his friends and be with someone of similar nature. Suzune is surprised by how thoughtful and considerate Shadow can be when there are no enemies for him to fight.
  • Dislikes Nico Yazawa in various ways. She's easily annoyed by her "Nico Nii" as well as her stubborness. Unless she can change her attitude, Suzune has banned her from her temple.

Quasideities

    Libby Chessler 
Libby Chessler, Goddess of Alpha Bitches
https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/00b77c4cbb4f40ea7a2697ce7a9eaa57.jpg
  • Quasideity
  • Alignment: Lawful Evil
  • Portfolio: Alpha Bitch (one of the most famous) because she was never shown compassion, Rich Bitch, Smug Snakes, bullying Sabrina thanks to Contrived Clumsiness and gets away with it (most of the time)
  • Domains: Personality, Bullying
  • High Priest: Regina George
  • Followers: Heather, Trixie Tang, Amity Blight, Mandy Wiles, Victoria Chase, Cleopatra Smith
  • Allies: Veronica Lodge, Cheryl Blossom (Not so much from Veronica though), Larxene
  • Rivals: The Ashleys
  • Headbutting Villains With: Eliza and Neil Reagan
  • Enemies: SABRINA SPELLMAN
  • Pities: Pacifica Northwest, Azula
  • Evil Counterpart to: Miu Kazashiro
  • Was very excited to see Veronica and Cheryl in the Pantheon and proposes to make another Terrible Trio with them. Veronica declines because she thinks it will detracts her from fighting for Archie's affection and that would give Betty a chance to "steal" him away from her. So, she formed the trio with her high priestess Regina instead. They usually go and terrorize any non-supernatural teenage goddess in the Pantheon.
  • After learning about Sabrina's ascension, Libby frequently drops by her temple in order to harass her. Although she is confused about Sabrina position, she still taunting Sabrina anyway because Status Quo Is God (and just because).
  • Feels sorry for Pacifica Northwest because of her horrible home life and agree to let Pacifica to leave the Alpha Bitch house without any retribution as Libby can see that it's making her life miserable.
    • Also feels sorry for Azula because of how broken the princess is. Not that she would show it, of course. She has an image to maintain.
  • She and her Girl Posse enters a rivalry with the Ashleys group over which group is more effective and should get which house, leading to a verbal combat between two side. Eventually, they reached an agreement to patrol and terrorize the Pantheon according to the time table.
    • However, one argument from the Ashleys groups still stuck with Libby is that the insult that her group lack "diversity". This led Libby embark on a quest to recruit a Token Minority girl in order to shut down that argument. Her search led Libby to discover Sae Kashiwagi after hearing about the circumstances surround her ascension. Sae now acts as a bait for the more naive goddesses in the Pantheon in order for Libby to approach them.
  • Libby proves herself to not be entirely selfish when she opposes Eliza & Neil Reagan's action, saying that Neil's Scarpia Ultimatum is too far.
  • Libby's temple is one of the most feared place to the Pantheon. While it sometimes stems from Libby herself (she essentially bullies a goddess two ranks above her frequently without any consequences), most of this is because of how frequently her temple is used and how many of her followers appeared and terrorize ascended deities in any story that is set in high school. And even those whose world isn't involve with that setting still wary of her temple due to the amount of High School A.U. fanfics that their followers wrote that cast female villains as her followers. This caused the Pantheon to try keeping Libby away from accessing the House of Travel in order to avoid Libby bringing her followers across dimension and into the Pantheon.
  • Is the enemy of Miu Kazashiro as Miu's attitude stems from working her butt off to inspire people, while Libby is more about being a bitch just for the sake of it. Putting these two in the same room is a very, very very bad idea.
