Subpages cleanup: Complete Monster

Go To

During the investigation of recent hollers in the Complete Monster thread, it's become apparent to the staff that an insular, unfriendly culture has evolved in the Complete Monster and Magnificent Bastard threads that is causing problems.

Specific issues include:

  • Overzealous hollers on tropers who come into the threads without being familiar with all the rules and traditions of the tropes. And when they are familiar with said rules and traditions, they get accused (with little evidence) of being ban evaders.
  • A few tropers in the thread habitually engage in snotty, impolite mini-modding. There are also regular complaints about excessive, offtopic "socializing" posts.
  • Many many thread regulars barely post/edit anywhere else, making the threads look like they are divorced from the rest of TV Tropes.
  • Following that, there are often complaints about the threads and their regulars violating wiki rules, such as on indexing, crosswicking, example context and example categorization. Some folks are working on resolving the issues, but...
  • Often moderator action against thread regulars leads to a lot of participants suddenly showing up in the moderation threads to protest and speak on their behalf, like a clique.

It is not a super high level problem, but it has been going on for years and we cannot ignore it any longer. There will be a thread in Wiki Talk to discuss the problem; in the meantime there is a moratorium on further Complete Monster and Magnificent Bastard example discussion until we have gotten this sorted out.

Update: The new threads have been made and can be found here:

Complete Monster Cleanup Thread

Please see the Frequently Asked Questions and Common Requests List before suggesting any new entries for this trope.

IMPORTANT: To avoid a holler to the mods, please see here for the earliest date a work can be discussed, (usually two weeks from the US release), as well as who's reserved discussion.

When voting, you must specify the candidate(s). No blanket votes (i.e. "[tup] to everyone I missed").

No plagiarism: It's fair to source things, but an effortpost must be your own work and not lifted wholesale from another source.

We don't care what other sites think about a character being a Complete Monster. We judge this trope by our own criteria. Repeatedly attempting to bring up other sites will earn a suspension.

What is the Work

Here you briefly describe the work in question and explain any important setting details. Don't assume that everyone is familiar with the work in question.

Who is the Candidate and What have they Done?

This will be the main portion of the Effort Post. Here you list all of the crimes committed by the candidate. For candidates with longer rap sheets, keep the list to their most important and heinous crimes, we don't need to hear about every time they decide to do something minor or petty.

Do they have any Mitigating Factors or Freudian Excuse?

Here you discuss any potential redeeming or sympathetic features the character has, the character's Freudian Excuse if they have one, as well as any other potential mitigating factors like Offscreen Villainy or questions of moral agency. Try to present these as objectively as possible by presenting any evidence that may support or refute the mitigating factors.

Do they meet the Heinousness Standard?

Here you compare the actions of the Candidate to other character actions in the story in order to determine if they stand out or not. Remember that all characters, not just other villains, contribute to the Heinousness Standard

Final Verdict?

Simply state whether or not you think the character counts or not.

Dude, I was just being more specific because you were literally asking me where I'm getting the "supernatural resources" idea from...

And also, I never specifically said "YOU GUYS downplay his crimes." I was talking about fans in general. I wasn't trying to be hostile at all.

The thing with Bryce's goons is that Monty is the only one we see onscreen with notable crimes. The only other ones we see are Zach, Justin and Marcus. Zach and Justin felt remorse and redeemed themselves, and Marcus while a dick the most he does is Jerkass things like getting Clay suspended and harassing Hannah. Monty's crimes are much more violent and personal.

BTW, we're at, like, 48 this week so far (49 if you include Junko (not the Yakuza one tongue )).

Basically, the "speculation" thing made it sound like I was making up fanfictions about Monty with supernatural abilities, when in reality, I was simply discussing how he can easily do more with if only he had more resources, so I was being sarcastic with the emojis and everything.

... Anyways, here's Junko:

  • Junko Enoshima is a despair-obsessed teenager seeking nothing less than the complete destruction of hope. Growing bored with life due to her incredible analytical abilities, Junko used her manipulative prowess to force her high school's student council to kill each other; and then the fallout to drive the rest of the students into a brainwashed frenzy. Kidnapping the kind-hearted teacher Chisa Yukizome, Junko lobotomizes her to turn her into her slave and drives the 77th class into Ultimate Despair by murdering their beloved classmate, Chiaki Nanami. Humiliating, blackmailing and breaking anyone in her way to reach her goal, Junko commands the entire population of reserve students to commit murder-suicides, resulting in a catastrophic number of casualties. Erasing the memories of her surviving classmates, Junko forces them into a cruel game where they are made to betray and murder one another, hoping to break every last bit of hope they hold to in their minds. When she is eventually discovered, Junko brags about killing her own sister to keep her plans exciting and when she fails to break the minds of her victims, opts to ignore their offer to give up her ways and chooses to kill herself, seeing nothing but excitement at even her own death. Even after her passing, Junko's devotion to spreading misery continues as she creates an AI in her own likeness to continue her torment. Unwavering in her love of suffering, Junko passed no chance to showcase just how many people she could subjugate to utter torment.

@43 Fine. But can you at least not accuse me for being hostile, when I was literally just trying to answer questions?

Anyway...for Junko (who may just go next week), I got 10 potholes to play with, but which best describes her? Big Bad? Ax-Crazy? Overarching Villain? Psychopathic Womanchild?

@ ACW honestly, they all work... I think Overarching Villain suits her a bit better than Big Bad though, since she's dead for a good number of the individual works but still has her presence felt.

I'll go with Overarching Villain for her name, Psychopathic Womanchild for "seeing nothing but excitement at even her own death", and Ax-Crazy for "Unwavering in her love of suffering".

@ACW Thank you mayne. Although I have to admit that some of the site pages felts rather incomplete and I checked that Dark Queen was on Pure Evil list which is interesting as she isn't quite there IMO. That and she's played for laughs. Still though, hoping that Battletoads 2019 brings us some surprise. And yeah, some of them couldn't even fit CM criteria but gotta use it I guess haha. tongue

John and Keith Carradine have each played a CM (here and here respectively). Have David or Robert?

[tup] Ralo and Joko.

You know people been saying Junko is now a household name for anime. Having seen Danganronpa myself and being a fan of the entire series, I can definitely see why. But I wonder if you consider Junko to be one of the most recognizable villains in anime, although for sure one of the most beloved almost to the level of Joker.
