Wait, what?

>>82601218
Depends how they play this trope. I mean, if they do it in a way where the MC immediately just does the whole 'killing makes me just like you' then I agree it's total shit.
But when good writers do this trope then it is fucking fantastic. This https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7kscfb9XzPs is a great example. The MC (Batman) obviously wants and has every reason to kill Joker. But he won't. For two reasons. Because he knows the moment he does, killing will just become easier and easier. He won't become Joker or anything as retarded as that (Any writer who genuinely thinks this should be shot in the head and buried). He'll become a man like Ra's, a man who will do whatever he feels is necessary no matter how amoral and will then justify it by saying it was for the greater good. Second Bruce knows that the moment he does, Joker has won, proving is point that everyone is the same as him.
>Character looks like they're dead
>They actually aren't but we all fucking knew that because rarely anyone ever kills off a main character.
>>82600823
And the boys NEVER win, it's always the girls who come out the victors, it's a tie, or something happens to prevent either teams from going on any further.

>>82602384
Death metal panda.
>>82602511
>ends up losing all the time
Kind of gives me an idea for a villain who operates on luck and karma. In that, for every awful loss that happens, they can use it for better karma at some point.
So they devise a plan to, as carefully as possible, always manage to lose despite going all-out and always getting fucking wrecked.
Then, in the finale, they finally use their karmic power, and unleash the unthinkable amount of strength and terror built on top of a thousand agonizing and ruinous defeats.
Full fucking party wipe.
>>82601615
while I completely understand the first part of the argument I really don't get the second argument
so what if the joker "wins". Wouldn't it be a heroic thing to lose if doing so saves countless lives?

>>82602618

>>82597987
Fucking Danny Phantom, he used Ice Powers once and never bothered with them again. Also PPG was notorious for this shit.
>>82602623
To the Joker, the world is this place on the edge, all it takes is a push and boom everything is done. Batman basically tells Joker, that you are a weak man who just snapped. He needs to continue to keep arresting the Joker and allowing him to suffer the consequences of the law. The moment he snaps and kills the Joker, he knows that the Joker will think that he is right.
Killing Joker is also a bit of a domino effect, as seen in Beyond and Injustice. People will idolize him, believe him to be a revolutionary who was killed doing the right thing. Not thugs who are getting paid, no, people who genuinely believe and enjoy the man's insanity. Therefore, killing Joker could cause even more chaos and destruction than arresting him ever could
>>82596485
I don't care if this one has already been said, if it has then it's worth mentioning again
>two characters get into an argument over a misunderstanding
>the entire problem could be resolved if they just spoke like normal people to each other instead of staying as ambiguous as possible in their arguing so that they can't realize it was a misunderstanding.
Seriously, I fucking hate this crap, especially when the writers do it so shittily that the dialogue they wrote to make the characters avoid saying something that would clear up the misunderstanding doesn't even sound like something people would normally say for any reason because it's been written in such a contrived way to pad out the length of the argument to reach a dramatic enough moment.
Really fucking pisses me off.
>>82596485
the smart one has OCD
>MC's superhero costume is some small mask that doesn't even cover his entire face or head
>anyone who has known the MC for longer than a week could easily point him out in his "costume"
>"Wow I wonder who this superhero is"
>>82602623
Batman doesn't trust himself to say kill the Joker and ONLY the Joker. He knows if he kills one villain he'll be able to justify killing more, and eventually become a dictator. So instead he draws a line and refuses to cross it instead of blurring the boundaries of what he's willing to do.
Also he has faith in the people of Gotham and the justice system to sort out criminals once he brings them in, it's just that he's in a comic book so nothing can actually ever get done.
It's something that works for Batman, because he's portrayed as a character that rides the very fine line between criminal and hero, but completely falls apart when applied to other characters.
>it's a body changing episode
>the characters' voices also switch
Every time
>>82602623
I want a story where Joker admits he wouldn't win if he got killed by Batman (since he'd be dead and all), but he acts like this is the case because it makes Batman stop himself from killing him.

I have never once seen a bullying problem continue after the kid getting bullied rears back and gives the bully a solid hay maker to the nose.
A lot of cartoons claim "ALL BULLIES ARE JUST COWARDS!!" which is only half of the truth. The full truth is they fuck with people who they know won't retaliate.

I've gotten into a fist fight with a dude who was bullying me.
Trust me, 3 days suspension is a much preferable option to being bullied for the entire semester.

The secret to winning against a bully is one of two things.
1. Frame them: Most bullies do the exact most to get you angry and weak but just at the edge of getting caught. Therefore, you need to provoke them into fucking themselves over. Provoke them into hitting you and make sure you don't fight back. Trick them into doing something that incriminates them. All of this has worked for me.
2. Scare the hell out of them. Fighting is useless in this regard, because the odds are they probably fight more than the average person. What you have to do is intimidate them. Have you ever told a person "I'm going to kill you?" And sounded like you actually meant it? It's an incredibly effective way to stop someone. There was a kid who was bullying me back in high school who had a dad in the military and who claimed he was being trained to go into the army himself (note: this is likely bullshit). All it took was one single glare and saying "If you do this to me again, I will kill you and nobody will care that I did." And he almost pissed himself. Tried to get on my good side the rest of high school.
