Goku not counts. He was the main character of day one and actually losed his spotlight in Z.

* \'\'{{Yu-Gi-Oh GX}}\'\': Even if he is the main character, Judai duels so often he might as well be the only duelist on the show; Sho, Manjome, Asuka and Rei get very little chance to duel, especially in the later seasons. For that matter, after Season 1 almost every Judai wins is due to Neos, the Neo-Spacians, or some fusion of them, and his standard E-Hero cards end up mostly cannon fodder until he draws Neos.

As noted, Judai is the main character.

* Likewise, Masaru and Agumon of \\\'\\\'DigimonSavers\\\'\\\'. The early episodes could almost have been called \\\"The [=GeoGreymon=] Show\\\". Fortunately, this evened out later on.
** See: the episode where Masaru, Touma and Yoshino lose their memories of their partners. Apparently, Masaru and Agumon\\\'s reunion is the only one important enough to show in any detail. But it gets a lot better after that, yes.

This IS \\\"The [=GeoGreymon=] Show\\\". Masaru was DESIGNED to be the main character.

* Don\\\'t expect a character to get any development, or to come anywhere near winning a tournament, in \\\'\\\'{{Tekken}}\\\'\\\' if they have no relationship to the [[MartyStu Mishima]] family. If they do somehow come close to winning a tournament or, *gasp*, actually beat a [[MartyStu Mishima]] in a fair fight, they\\\'ll be dispatched by [[DiabolusExMachina Diabolus Ex]] [[IncrediblyLamePun Mishima]].
** Especially evident in Paul Phoenix\\\'s storyline. Every tournament he enters, he loses on some technicality. One tournament he lost because he left before [[TheManBehindTheMan the real boss]] showed up.

Huhn!? The heroic-looking(haha) son of the BigBad and FinalBoss of the first gane, said BigBad and the son(And SuspiciouslySimilarSubstitute) of said son of the BigBad?

* Granted, He-Man is the main character in MastersOfTheUniverse, but he did almost everything to save Eternia and didn\\\'t let the other [[MerchandiseDriven toys... I mean characters]] to shine. This only applies to TheEighties version (and maye a bit to the New Adventures), while in the 2002 remake, despite still being the absolute protagonist, He-Man allowed characters like Buzz-Off or Moss Man to show what were they capable of.

As noted, main character.

\\\" Please restrict examples to when it would actually make sense for other characters to be in the spotlight; if someone is clearly supposed to be the main focus of the series from the beginning then it doesn\\\'t count.\\\"
