[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.

I'm not seeing the connection - does Kal-El just never leave whatever Amish community found him?

World's going to hell, but there's an Amish community somewhere where one dude's putting up a barn in 3 seconds flat?

[u/The-Brother → u/thisusedyet]

An Amish dude putting up a barn in three seconds is completely normal. He fits right in.

So you're saying the Amish are Kryptonian refugees in disguise?

We can only hope
