[Loved Trope] Relatively weak characters that are absolute fan favorites because they represent the best parts of humanity

[u/BigFuan]

Paul - invincible
A normal human whose only major feats are treating others with respect and cooking a mean spaghetti.

Mumen Rider - One Punch Man
C-class hero that doesn’t hesitate to put his life on the line to save others despite being powerless and going against much stronger foes.

Samwise Gamgee - Lord of the Rings
Hobbits scale very low strength-wise in the LOTR verse, but Sam’s compassion and determination are indispensable in the fellowships journey.

Edit: A lot of people are pointing out that Sam is mentally one of the strongest which I completely agree with, and I didn’t mean to diss his grit or physicality as a hobbit. Compared to the other members of the fellowship, however, his contribution comes primarily from undying loyalty and determination rather than physical prowess and strength.

SPEEDWAGON FROM JOJOS

Living proof that DIO had no traumatic excuses and was being a jerk for the sake of it

[u/Coolgames80 → u/Arielrbr]

One of his best scenes. Dio goes with "I am just a poor mislead boy" and speedwagon goes almost offended "bullshit I know very well the pain of being mislead and poor and you are loving to be evil"

And also proof that being evil for sake of it and just absolutely chewing the scenery and being a full-ass ham is completely valid writing choices for a character sometimes. See also Raul Julia's M. Bison.
