Ensemble Dark Horse is about "minor characters that become popular despite not contributing much to the main narrative", not "any popular character other than the protagonist."
But she just said they are MAJOR characters not MINOR characters!
Question: were they always major characters or did they start out minor and gain not importance alongside their popularity?
They were always major, getting focus in each of their respective arcs and having continued roles beyond their introductions. Characters.Sonic The Hedgehog IDW has sections for them, but none for the background character that became a hit.
The Protomen enhanced my life.
Ensemble Dark Horse is starting to confuse me because im thinking ots minor aren't always there and that Main characters and Supporting character dont count but supporring characters still count.
I removed Ensemble Dark Horse entries on YMMV.Sonic The Hedgehog IDW for Tangle and Whisper, as they are major characters and have large roles in the comic so far and therefore cannot be E Ds, but kept an ED example for a background character that gained unexpected attention, a fan name, and fan art. The former two entries were recently added back with no edit reason.
