Part of the problem with the entry is that it reads like it\'s complaining, rather than showing how it\'s an example of a meme. A MemeticLoser is a character who, no matter how badass they are, they\'re still memed as being pathetic or weak. the vast majority of the entry can be cut out completely. I propose rewriting it:

Short, simple, and straightforward, and doesn\'t read like a lengthy analysis but rather an example of a meme.

** The Grimm are presented as a dangerous force in-universe, but because they get frequently slaughtered in the majority of fight scenes without seriously harming anyone, a lot of fans have joked about them being akin to the Stormtroopers from Franchise/StarWars.
to:
** Despite everything, the Grimm themselves barring very specific exceptions (the Apathy specifically) are usually seen as a joke. They barely ever get onscreen kills or even do significant damage to the heroes, and most Grimm fights are curb-stomps in the heroes\\\' favour. Intentionally or not, it undersells the Grimm\\\'s threat-factor in the world at large that they lose their fights, and subsequent attempts to make them scary again have either been seen as isolated successes (again, the Apathy) or are undershot later in the series (the Goliaths in Volume 7 after being built up in Volume 2). The Leviathan Grimm from Volume 6 has gotten this the worst thanks to its derpy design from some angles and, despite its immense size, how little it actually does before Ruby uses the Silver Eyes to weaken it and Cordovin finishes it off. The breaking point for some is that, despite it being a massive plot point that causes the endgame of Volume 7, the Grimm are still easy to take care of and come off more of a nuisence to the civilians than a serious threat.

** The Grimm are presented as a dangerous force in-universe, with frightening visual designs and unsettling behaviors. However, because they get frequently slaughtered in the majority of fight scenes without seriously harming anyone, a lot of fans have joked about them being akin to the Stormtroopers from Franchise/StarWars or other ineffectual, easily-stomped {{Mooks}}.
