Zanza: Th-that symbol!
Shulk: Today, we use our power to fell a god, and then seize our destiny!
Xenoblade Chronicles 1, when Zanza realizes that Shulk is about to kill him.

...i love Xenoblade Chronicles. easily one of the greatest scenes in gaming history. and the best part?

it illustrates the trope in one line, but furthers it by giving the context.

10/10. no other notes.

"You see this? This here little DNA bead comes from a little girl in Riverside, California... didn't like to wash her hands. Took me three whole weeks. And this one: nice lady in Detroit, Motown. Six days flat. Then there's this old guy in Philly. I killed him in 72 hours. Yeah, I'm getting better as I go along, baby, but the problem is I never set a record! Until my man, Frank, that is. I'm gonna take him down in 48 hours! Get my own chapter in the medical books!"
Thrax, Osmosis Jones

10/10. Truly one of the most chilling examples in fiction.

"By the way, Ryan, I just want you to know, [...] for future reference, I would much rather you look me dead in the eye and say, 'Penny, that joke was awful. It wasn't funny. Never say anything like that ever again,' rather than respond to any of my jokes with 'I get that reference.'"

9.5/10. Penny's transparency is really admirable. (As is her vocal range)

All in all, I am afraid the Elders proved to be a pretty ineffective and stupid lot. But the glorious ends more than make up for the tedious means it took to gain them. Mind! Soul! Reality! Time! Space! Power! So much more than even the Cosmic Cube gave me! ALL MINE! I CONTROL IT ALL! THE UNIVERSE BELONGS TO ME!
Thanos, The Thanos Quest

9/10. MCU Thanos is great, but comic Thanos is a damn menace.


Unintentionally Sympathetic

"The fact that Cars 2 expects me not to sympathize with the villains is actually incredible. I felt horrible all through the last act because I knew exactly the kind of ending was waiting for me. They have genuine grievances with society that affect even them, the uber-wealthy, so what about cars like Otis? The vast majority of dysfunctional cars who aren't part of a secret crime family of disabled people, looking to take over the world? They all suffer with those same problems at the end of the film. Nothing has gotten better. In fact, things have probably gotten worse for them now that Axelrod and his collaborators have been exposed. The bad guys in this movie are a Bond-style syndicate of embittered disabled villains lashing out at the society that hurt them. As is the case with almost every villain who falls into this trope, the movie feels justified in ignoring all of their legitimate grievances because they're the villains. We're justified in returning to the status quo because everyone who complained about it was evil."
Oakwyrm, "Ableism in Cars 2"

10/10, gets the point across the best.


Love to Hate

"Personally, I was content with Zant being the final boss from the moment that he showed up at the [Lanayru] Spring, and we got a taste of his power. Of course I wanted to tear into the guy at that point. I thought he was a wonderful, menacing antagonist. And him acting so childish when he was backed into a corner, was super unexpected! It was something I didn't really see coming with him."

10/10. Gets the point across the best.

(Mansley has just ordered a nuclear strike on the Iron Giant)
Rogard: That missile is targeted to the Giant's current position! Where's the Giant, Mansley?!
(Mansley looks over his shoulder to see the Giant standing right behind him)
Mansley: Ohhh...

9.5/10. Freaking hilarious altercation.

Athena Cykes: I. Already. Told. You! I'm a lawyer assigned to the case! I need to study the crime scene, so if you would please tell me where Kyubi Manor is...!
Policeman: You can't fool me! You're just some delinquent high school student playing hooky!
Athena: You stupid, pig-headed...! This attorney's badge isn't just for show, you know! […] Tsk! Why won't you believe me?! Don't expect me to defend you in court if you ever get arrested!
Policeman: Well, I'm the one who usually does the arresting, so... Say, shouldn't you be getting back to school?
Athena: I already told you, I'm a lawyer, not a student!
Policeman: That's it! Enough of your lies! You're coming with me!
Athena: Aaah! Get your hands off of me! (suplexes the policeman onto Apollo Justice)
Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – Dual Destinies, Case 5-2: "The Monstrous Turnabout"

8/10. Definitely a good example of this trope in action.

Syndrome: You know, I went through quite a few Supers to make it [the Omnidroid] worthy to fight you, but man... it wasn't good enough! After you trashed the last one, I had to make some major modifications. Sure, it was difficult, but you are worth it! I mean, after all... (lowers voice with side-eye) ...I am your biggest fan.
Mr. Incredible: Buddy?
Syndrome: My name is not BUDDY! And it's not Incrediboy either! That ship has sailed. All I wanted was to help you. I only wanted to help! And what did you say to me?!
Mr. Incredible: (in flashback) Fly home, Buddy. I work alone.
Syndrome: It tore me apart, but I learned an important lesson: you can't count on anyone. Especially your heroes.
Mr. Incredible: I was wrong to treat you that way. I'm sorry.
Syndrome: See, now you respect me, because I'm a threat. That's the way it works.

9/10. Syndrome always raises good points despite how much of a bastard he is.

In this world, there are Grimm, monsters that hunt down humans. Humans eventually discovered Dust and fought back. However, you're not here for the story. You just want to see 3D girls and their weapons do crazy shit.

10/10. Great designs, memorable characters, and a great playground to work with. It's hardly a wonder why it's got so many fan works like the Quote's source.
