Find a Trope:
openIncognito help trope? Anime
Is there a trope for where the villain's son or Mook helps the heroes under a Secret Identity, and goes against the wishes of their villain parent, by doing it in secret and the heroes just think it's a benevolent bystander? Any trope for where the heroes don't even know it's the villain's son or Mook doing it?
Edited by Merseyuser1openNickname through the unusual use of honorifics? Anime
If, say, Alice usually refers to Bob using a Japanese Honorifics that no sane Japanese will use, and Bob doesn't seem to mind at all, is that a In-Series Nickname? In this case, let's say Alice usually call Bob, a male with no effeminate nor childish traits, Bob-chan. (This case, depending on context, may fall into Affectionate Nickname if it fits other criteria for In-Series Nickname.)
Edited by SamCurtopenMaking a Virus to Sell the Cure Anime
A party creates a virus (or another bad thing) so that they can profit off selling the only cure for it.

Is there such a trope as this:
The Arc Villain who's the Big Bad of the season (for example Dragon Ball Super) tells his son:
His son, however, decides to Screw Destiny and ensure the timeline comes out more positive, and in his favor, not how his dad predicted it. (As it is, the son isn't even evil, but would rather be on the heroes' side if not for who he was, and doesn't even do anything villainous; if anything, he helps the heroes under a Secret Identity and deliberately bungles his dad's schemes, and is helpful because he wants to be.).
Also, is there a trope for where someone associated with the villains helps the heroes under a Secret Identity but the protagonists have no idea at all that it's really a relative / Mook of the Big Bad?
