Affably Evil | |
| The Paper Tigers / int_537dd8fe | comment |
Zhen Fan is a darker yet more affable version of this. He's completely secure in his fighting prowess, having no problems showing off his physical prowess to the Tigers in order to intimidate them. When Danny asks him what the terms of the third round of their beimo are, he lightly scoffs at the idea of their fight even lasting that long. Then there's the fact that in-between assassinations, he's been going around challenging and brutally beating other gung fu practitioners. | |

Arrogant Kung-Fu Guy | |
| The Paper Tigers / int_bfaff026 | comment |
Arrogant Kung-Fu Guy: While most of the gung fu fighters have a bit of this in them, special mention goes to Carter. Unlike the Tigers, Carter had continued to train in gung fu, officially teaching in Master Wong's school, and has a chip on his shoulder for the many times they defeated him. He gives Koans in gratuitous Chinese, identifies as Chinese when it suits him, gives overly elaborate opening stances, and takes obscene pleasure in humiliating the Tigers. After Hing is nearly killed by the Fourth Disciple and Danny and Jim decide to confront him, Carter drops the smugness.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_3'); }) | |
