This Trope Sucks - Tumblr Posts
I hate fics wherein a character is secretly great at everything and shows everyone up. It's like: okay. But where was this skill and talents when everyone's lives was in danger? You're telling me that Kaminari decided not to use his super amazing combat skills in the USJ or the war arc? Or that Lance decided not to use his perfect better than everyone else's piloting skills during literally any episode? Or that Kuroko decided not to overthrow Aomine and Akashi when he had the chance?
This only works if it isn't something like that. Like Midoriya's analysis supported by his thirteen books, or Keith's guaranteed smarts, seeing as he was top in his entire year, or Kurt's car expertise after being raised in a garage.
If there's no canonical evidence, then it's just a case of 'I want my fav to be the absolute best and imma treat everyone else like trash, even though, technically, it's not the character I adored in the first place anymore because I'm throwing their flaws out of the window uwu'
