A secondary or Ensemble character gets the primary focus for an episode in an atypical fashion. This can be used to either give various cast members a rest, both for the actor and for the audience or to allow different episodes to be shot simultaneously to save on time or costs. It can also be used to explore the possibility of an expanded role for a recurring or secondary character, or to set up a Spin-Off. Fans of secondary characters may explore the idea of their favourite character becoming the primary protagonist in a Fanfic. Sometimes the limelight is given to a guest character of note, often a character so outrageous that he/she upstages the regulars, or a nobody with a touching, moving story. This is occasionally done in comedies where the focus is less on the regular characters usual antics and hijinks, and more on the guest character. In such cases, the regular characters may be temporarily demoted to Straight Man status. In some cases, the regular characters are just present either to provide moral support or to be the recipients of An Aesop. Such episodes may be of the Very Special Episode variety and may focus on a serious issue facing the guest character. While often times this trope only applies to secondary or background characters, in an ensemble cast with fairly equitable time sharing, any episode that shines the spotlight on one particular character can be considered a Limelight Episode even if that character is top billed. When these characters in this episode face a conflict, they may either resolve it themselves, or somebody else —frequently, the actual protagonist— will. A number of tropes act as more specialized examples of this trope: A Hostile Show Takeover is the most extreme version of this trope. If the character or characters getting the Day In The Limelight are very minor, it's a Lower-Deck Episode. If the characters are villains/antagonists in the work, then it's a Villain Episode. For this happening within a rock band, see Step Up to the Microphone. When the female cast is getting a dedicated story, it is a Girl's Night Out Episode. A Limelight Series turns this concept into an entire show. See also Breakout Character, Character Focus for the Super-Trope, and Adaptational Protagonist, when either minor or major characters acquire the main lead role in an adaptation. Compare Ascended Extra. If a minor mook gets a whole spinoff, that becomes Breakout Mook Character. Contrast with Day in the Life, A Death in the Limelight. |

In Watchmen, each of the six main characters get an issue in the limelight, which illustrates their backstory and relations with other characters. The Comedian's is in Chapter 2, Dr. Manhattan's is in Chapter 4, Rorschach's is in Chapter 6, Nite Owl II's is in Chapter 7, Silk Spectre II's is in Chapter 9 and Ozymandias' is in Chapter 11. They vary from being an in-depth look at their origins, to showing various important events from their lives, to simply being a way of getting better to know a character. The reason for the inclusion of the issues was the fact that Alan Moore plotted the story for six issues, but was contracted for twelve. So he mixed in six character based issues. | |

The Interlude chapters in Worm each switch to the POV from the protagonist to some other character, with the level of relevance to the current storyline varying depending on the character, but each Interlude is woven into the overall Myth Arc of the setting. Each plot arc ends with one, but the author writes extra such as donation bonuses. | |

MapleStory, the Blockbuster campaigns serve as this for numerous characters. Black Heaven put the spotlight on the Resistance, which is preparing for its final battle for freedom from the Black Wings and for Maple World itself. Orchid gets similar levels of focus after getting hit with a De-power just prior to the events of the story. Heroes of Maple shines the limelight on the Legends, particularly Evan, who becomes The Leader of the six Legends and is pivotal to the heroes' plans to stop Damien. |

Wonder Woman (1987): Vanessa Kapatelis was a supporting character who had a small arc, focused on the suicide of one of her friends during middle school, focused on her though Diana was still the main character of the arc. Later, after she was already rarely seen and Commuting on a Bus she got an entire issue to herself in which she fought off Dr. Psycho's invasion of her mind and corruption of her dreams and feelings. | |

The "Lulu's War mini-arc of Nikolai Dante'' followed Lulu Romanov as she fought to protect Venice from an army of vampires allied to Tsar Vladimir. Dante himself only appeared in a few panels at the very beginning, talking to Lulu. Similarly, "The Tsar's Daughter" concentrates on Jena Makarov. |

The IDW Transformers comics had occasional "spotlight" comics, sometimes focusing on secondary characters, though this stopped being a regular series after 2007. Spotlight: Hoist, for example, was the first time Hoist has been in the limelight in something like 20 years. | |

X-Men: In the mid-1980s, Chris Claremont went through a Day in the Limelight phase, writing whole issues focused on a single character with only cursory appearances, or none at all, by the rest of the team. Examples include: the "Lifedeath" duology, where a depowered Storm (she gets better) travels the world; "Whatever Happened to Nightcrawler?" where the titular teleporter romances a movie starlet and battles Arcade; and "Wounded Wolf", which features a dazed Wolverine teaming up with one of the Power Pack to fight cyborgs in a blizzard. Jubilee got more than a couple over the course of her original appearances. |

Sluggy Freelance has done this several times. Zoe got the "28 GEEKS LATER" storyline all to herself, as well as most of "Fire and Rain." Bun-Bun took center stage for the epic "Holiday Wars" and "Oceans Unmoving" arcs. Oasis went from being an occasional guest star to the focal character during the "Phoenix Rising" arc. And the B-Side Comics "Meanwhile in the Dimension of Pain" and "No Content On Saturdays" focused on the adventures of the Dimension of Pain demons and Kiki, respectively. Oddly enough Sasha did not get one of these, even in the "Bikini Suicide Sasha Days" arc. | |

A Certain Magical Index: Part of Volume 5 is focused on former villain Accelerator and his Heel–Face Turn and ascension to the status of major protagonist. Volume 8 has Kuroko as the main character. The Norse Mythology side story revolves around Kaori. New Testament Volume 11 both explains the backstory of Misaki and details a related incident in the present. |

The Sheikah in The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. Originally introduced in Ocarina of Time as the tribe Zelda's nurse/ladysmaid/bodyguard Impa belonged to and being the traditional guardians of Hyrule's royal line, she remained their only representative across the subsequent games aside from the Sheikah Stones and a few miscellaneous items bearing their eye emblem. In this game, however, they collectively play a much larger role in the plot, being the creators of the diverse Magitek across the ruins of Hyrule (including the Sheikah Slate, the Guardians, and the Shrines), and having their many ancient monks provide Link with abilities for his quest. Furthermore, there is also now an entire Wutai-themed village of Sheikah of various ages. | |

Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead: Debatable, since the whole point of the play is to show what's going on in the wings; in other words; R&G aren't in the limelight, but the audience isn't looking at what's in the limelight (that being Hamlet) either. | |

Several non-story modes in Dislyte give Espers more limelight: Bounties can sometimes spawn special episodes for certain Espers. The game can even let the player focus on letting their Esper of choice get their episodes without waiting too long. There are special limited-time events featuring ongoing stories for several Espers such as The Lone Star for Ollie and Bloody Hunt for Zora. Discboom herself has her own special Rhythm Game mode where she DJs her way through the inner struggles of several Espers from the Esper Union, and even from the Shadow Decree. |

In Arenas, some episodes are centered on characters which aren't called Doom: The introduction of both Ranger and Grunt, in "Warriors of Slipgate". There's no Doom in here. Also, the story of Sarge. In "Last Stand", Doom and Visor are talking about him in the resting area, while Sarge's regenerating. Cue flashback scenes about Sarge and Visor's previous fights in the Human-Strogg war. The S2E1 reel finally shows Bitterman. |

The Honor Harrington novels primarily focus on the title character, but after War of Honor, the scope of the universe — and the story — expanded rather dramatically. With Honor herself too senior for front-line combat duty, her best friend, Michelle Henke, a well-liked character in the main novels, was sent off to the Talbott Quadrant to serve as the anchor character for the Saganami Island sub-series. It seems to have worked, as it's also gained her quite a number of new fans — and given readers a chance to know her quite a bit better than they had. | |

A Wreck-It Ralph tie-in storybook set after the events of the film, titled One Sweet Race, centers on Rancis Fluggerbutter, one of the racers who bullied Vanellope in the film. The story reveals to us that Rancis has never been able to win a Sugar Rush race before, and Vanellope, having become friends with Rancis after the movie's events, helps him build a new kart for him to use in the next race. | |

While Valkyria Chronicles 4 has squad missions focusing on groups of three squad members after one of the three gets promoted.

Kirby: In addition to being major bosses and helping during the endgames, Kirby: Triple Deluxe and Kirby: Planet Robobot have extra modes allowing you to play the entire game as King Dedede and Meta Knight respectively complete with final bosses referencing the games they weren't in. The Kirby's Adventure and Kirby Super Star remakes (Nightmare In Dream Land and Super Star Ultra respectively) started the trend with the Meta Knightmare and Meta Knightmare Ultra modes respectively. In Kirby Star Allies, every playable ally (including the Dream Friends) gets their own dedicated speedrun mode called "Guest Star ???? Star Allies Go!", complete with various title blurbs for each character. In Kirby's Return to Dream Land Deluxe, an unlockable campaign once the player finishes the main game focuses on Magolor attempting to escape the realm between worlds after being defeated by Kirby and friends in the game's story mode. Unlike Dededetour! and Meta Knightmare which were simply "What If" scenarios, this extra mode picks up directly after the main story's events. |

Rule of Rose: The game in general focuses on Jennifer, but Eleanor, Diana, Meg and Amanda get significant focus in a chapter each, which throws their particular damage into the spotlight. Wendy receives focus as the only other character during The Gingerbread House, and then again when she outs herself as The Chessmaster. The game's final chapter puts all of the leads Out of Focus, choosing instead to tell the player what was happening with the story and characters directly. |

Wonder Woman: Wonder Woman (1942): While Etta Candy is a part of most Golden Age tales she's the main character of "Etta Candy and Her Holliday Girls: The Toothache" in which Diana only makes an appearance for a couple of panels and the story is focused on Etta. Wonder Woman (1987): Vanessa Kapatelis was a supporting character who had a small arc, focused on the suicide of one of her friends during middle school, focused on her though Diana was still the main character of the arc. Later, after she was already rarely seen and Commuting on a Bus she got an entire issue to herself in which she fought off Dr. Psycho's invasion of her mind and corruption of her dreams and feelings. After over fifty years of being in his more famous girlfriend's shadow to the point of seeminly ceasing to exist at points Steve Trevor was the featured character in the Wonder Woman: Steve Trevor Special in 2016. Wonder Woman Historia: The Amazons is an entire series of this for Hippolyta and the Amazons, usually supporting or background characters in Wonder Woman or DC Comics series. |

The Headhunt is told from the perspective of Dul'krah, Clan Korekh, the USS Bajor's security chief, rather than its captain Kanril Eleya as is usual for the author, and highlights his psychology. Among other things his internal monologue refers to himself and the other command crew members of the Bajor as "elders" and Kanril as the "great elder". | |

The Harry Potter fandom is so large that for any significant character, there is a complete saturation of limelight fics. No one even thinks of, for example, a Ginny fic as shedding light on her character since she has already been so thoroughly explored in previous fics that every possible interpretation of her has already been used thousands of times. In fact, by now the process is mainly viewed as simply choosing your favorite preexisting interpretation (slut!Ginny, innocent!Ginny, tomboy!Ginny, etc.) and running with it. Even when all that's known about the character is a name, a house and a plot point, expect several fics focusing on them and expanding on what little canon tells us. There's been fan fiction starring Caradoc Dearborn, a character who is mentioned once as an example of someone who died in the last war. That's it. Multi-chapter fiction. There exist fics for characters who were never even named in story, but aren't OCs because their names can be spotted on the class list JK holds up in Harry Potter and Me. No house name, no plot point, barely exist in canon at all... |

Most of Doctor Who Magazine's day in the limelight strips have typically been backup strips, focusing on the various monsters and villains the Doctor's faced, but there have been a few that fit this trope better, including several for strip-original characters, several for the Time Lords, one for Sarah Jane Smith and K9, one for K9 solo, one for young Amy and Rory, and one for the Paternoster Gang. | |

one day at a time (Nyame): After having Jason as the main POV character for the vast majority of the story, the second flashback arc shifts the main POV to Dick, as the arc primarily centers on him and takes place during his tenure as Batman. Jason is specifically cited as a supporting, static character during these events. | |

The Minkiad: The first three chapters of Lives of Genius focus on Minkus’ time in elementary to high school when the canon has gone into the lives of Cory, Topanga, Shawn and their families; Of particular notice, the readers discover that the "Other Part of the School" is an area for troubled students with emotional problems. In fact most of the early chapters of Lives of Genius, the events from Boy Meets World are referred to but mostly not shown; Cory, Topanga, and Shawn are hardly shown-Cory only in the Graduation Day scenes, Topanga has one scene at the Science Fair and Shawn has two scenes-at Graduation Day and at a restaurant in which he encounters the engaged Stuart and Jennifer. The gang are also seen briefly through a window after Riley is born and Minkus is contemplating his life after his grandfather’s death and wife’s pregnancy. This is intentional so the readers can focus on what Stuart Minkus was going through during this time. It’s not until their children become friends that Cory and Topanga and eventually Shawn become regular characters as they have reappeared in Stuart Minkus' life. |

She ends up saving the entire world, making the 're-greening' of Earth possible by going back in time and crashing Mother into the Earth, killing herself instantly.

The New Adventures of Invader Zim: Season 1: Episode 4 focuses on the sidekick group of GIR, Phil, Minimoose, and MIMI. Episode 8 focuses on a rivalry between Viera and Gaz, with the only other major characters to show up being Dib and Norlock, for one scene each. Episode 10 focuses almost exclusively on Tenn's mission on Meekrob, acting as a springboard to introduce her into the main story. Episode 14 also focuses on Tenn as she adjusts to life on Earth, with Tak alone being the only other main character to show up more than once or twice. Episode 18 is entirely about Gaz, with the only other major character who shows up being Dib, and he's only in it for one scene. Season 2: Episode 6 is set entirely aboard the Massive, focusing on the various crew members as the Consulars search for evidence of a rebel New Order cell. Episode 8 is about Nyx and Gaz going on a space road trip and hijinks ensuing. The rest of the main cast either don't show up at all or only have minimal appearances near the beginning. |

There's even an entire issue focusing solely on a Red Shirt named Hendorff, appropriately titled "The Redshirt's Tale". To Boldly Go #5 is about Jaylah's family and how Krall killed them. |

Wicked is a retelling of The Wizard of Oz that gives the main focus to Elphaba, the Wicked Witch of the West, and G(a)linda, the Good Witch. Nearly every major Ozian character from the film shows up - Elphaba's sister Nessarose, who becomes the Wicked Witch of the East, the Wizard of Oz himself, Boq/the Tin Man, and Fiyero/the Scarecrow. The two most famous characters - Dorothy and the Cowardly Lion - never quite make it onstage (although the Lion can be heard in "March of the Witch Hunters") for fear that they're simply too iconic and would divert attention away from Elphaba and Galinda. | |

After Scratch smashes his scrap-book, each of the sprites get a little focus, Nannasprite finds Dad's bloody hat and relates her backstory, Davesprite and Jadesprite meet up and deploy a sword, and Jaspersprite talks to Nepeta about love and foreshadows the Alpha session. Expanded in the new Paradox Space site, where everyone seems to be getting their day to shine. |

The Terra Ignota series is mainly narrated by Mycroft Canner, who chronicles the events of the series, with two exceptions: Sniper narrates the first chapter of book two, Seven Surrenders. The Will to Battle reveals this to have been part of a deal between J.E.D.D. Mason and Sniper to convince Sniper to return Mycroft to J.E.D.D. Mason. The chapter details, from Sniper's point of view, what happened to it during it's disappearance at the end of book one. The last chapter of the third book, The Will to Battle, is written by the Servicer whom Mycroft names Outis earlier in the book, after Mycroft himself is presumed to have died. In a Call-Back to the first book, where Mycroft claims the narrator should introduce himself to the reader by stating his name, background and qualifications but never reveals the later two, Outis reveals both his backstory and qualifications at length but refuses to name himself, then reveals that he's been training to become the next Anonymous behind the scenes. It would seem like Outis will be the chronicler from now on but Mycroft chimes in with a short note that he's still alive and will return after this chapter. |

Valkyria Chronicles: The first game has a DLC where the story focuses on 6 of the minor characters in the game. It focuses primarily on Edy, a very popular character in Japan. Valkyria Chronicles II and Valkyria Chronicles III have squad missions for each member of The Squad who aren't the main cast. While Valkyria Chronicles 4 has squad missions focusing on groups of three squad members after one of the three gets promoted. In all three of these sequels, these missions replace or unlock potentials in those in focus, that can dramatically increase their performance. |

Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker gives the spotlight to Captain Toad, previously a bit character in Super Mario Galaxy and Super Mario 3D World along with Toadette, who previously mostly appeared in spinoffs. Mario and friends only appear at the very end of the game in a surprising twist. | |

In New Super Mario Bros. 2, The Koopalings act as the main antagonists for the entire game. Even though Bowser acts as the final boss, he does not appear at all before then, and the Koopalings enchant him in order to actually kick things off. | |

Ultra X Weapons is an arcade shooter from the Ultra Series, where players get to play as... the earth defense forces instead of the Ultramen. Choosing between the various factions of the defense forces, including the SSP, TDF, MAT, TAC, ZAT, MAT and UGM, the player gets to control one of their jets to blast through alien invaders, with the Ultramen of each faction serving as an Assist Character - an Action Bomb that launches a special attack destroying most enemies on the screen, before leaving. | |

The Order of the Stick released a side story about half-orc ninja Therkla trying to get through one assignment from her boss Kubota that featured none of the heroes or other villains of the main story. Interestingly, this was done specifically at the request of one fan, who had pledged a good deal of money to the author's Kickstarter to see it happen. | |

Super Robot Wars GC is this for the One Year War and the Neo Zeon movement - you jump from one to the other, and there is no Titans force to worry about. The main OYW pilots all live (so no, Slegger and Ryu DON'T die) and stay on your side through the entire game, the White Base is your main ride (even after getting the Gundor), and Bright Noa is always important to the plot. Plus, you can recruit Lalah Sune WITHOUT A SECRET. | |

Many professional wrestling promotions have events dedicated to a specific division, which can become an example of this trope when said division rarely gets much focus otherwise. Even when TNA's X division was at its most neglected, they still had Destination X, for instance. Even when a division is more appreciated, an entire event dedicated to it, such as New Japan and All Japan's World Tag Leagues, will still standout. | |

Code Geass: Colorless Memories has this in the form of what Word of God calls "The backstage chapters", where the POV switches from main character Rai to other characters at different points of the fic. Word of God was that this was done to address criticism of the original version of the fic of over focus on Rai's arc to the detriment of other characters. "Backstage Chapter One" is entirely from the POV of Ruben Ashford, whom never appeared in canon and gives his inner thoughts to Marianne and her children, as well as why he allowed Milly to let Rai stay at Ashford. "Backstage Chapter Two" gives us the POV of Guildford and Darton on recent events and fleshes out some of Dalton's past that included the Knight of Eight and why he adopts orphans. "Backstage Chapter Three" is from Suzaku and Michael Steinberg's POV that goes into how Tohdoh was captured by Britannia along with their first team fight against Kallen and Rai. "Backstage Chapter Four" places focus on Kaguya Sumeragi's POV within Kyoto house, gives information about her family and hints to deeper mysteries going on if the Sumeragi Legacy is anything to go by. |

Xenoblade Chronicles: Each of the rare Blades that you're fortunate enough to draw in Xenoblade Chronicles 2 has a couple of Heart-to-Heart scenes specific to them, and a sidequest where they and their ideals or goals are the focus. These are usually required to unlock a particular node on their Affinity Charts, which confer bonuses to their native abilities. Similarly, each of the Hero characters in Xenoblade Chronicles 3 have unique questlines and discussion topics that focus on them and their aspirations. For instance, Riku and Manana are initially unlocked as Hero characters via their Hero Quest in which Riku seeks a particular kind of gemstone from the Urayan mines for crafting purposes, and are further upgraded after their Ascension Quest where Manana attempts to become apprentice to a famous Nopon chef. |

Waluigi, while not having any game to his name, only appearing in spinoffs, had a couple of great moments and stages to himself. In the Mario Tennis series and Mario Golf: Toadstool Tour, he and Wario are featured the most in the games intro scenes, and he appeared without Wario in the GBA game (considering that both Mario Golf and the Mario Tennis series are developed by Camelot, this makes sense). In Mario Party 3, he is a Climax Boss of sorts, hijacking the villain spot from Bowser and being battled on his own board, and had some great themes in addition. In Dance Dance Revolution Mario Mix, while only serving as the first boss, he had one of the best musics to dance to, and in Mario Kart DS, he had Waluigi Pinball, an entire track dedicated to him. In Mario Sports Mix, he again has a pinball stage. Super Mario Party gives him the aptly named rhythm minigame "Time To Shine", in which he takes center stage and dances while the players mimic his poses. And he gets one of the major recurring roles in Golf Adventure in Mario Golf: Super Rush. | |

The Hyper vlogs are from the perspective of the titular stalker, Rachel got both abused and got to give the speech in The Shining review, Tamara had The Monster Squad where she was trying to impress the boy squad, and Rob got to be the voice of reason in Fantastic Four (2005). | |

Three of the Slayers Special novels (the prequel stories set before the main series) feature stand-alone stories centering around Lina's bodyguard Gourry, the princess Amelia, and the chimera Zelgadiss. The former two take place prior to Lina's adventures with them (Gourry's in particular doubles as a minor origin story insofar as to how he met Lina and why he became a wandering merc), while Zelgadiss' takes place some time after he and Amelia split up from Lina and Gourry. | |

Kakos Industries has fun with this. A growing collection of B-side episodes that steer away from the usual announcements to that of the leading Evil, Inc. competitor Melantha Murther act as a Distaff Counterpart to Corin's broadcasts, complete with in-universe Alternate Company Equivalent devisions, parties, even her own classical take on the show's usual score. Corin has a lot of fun interrupting her announcement. As a meta joke, the beginning monologue is spoken by Hailey Solomonari As Herself instead of Kim Aiello, and Corin reads the outro with tongue firmly in cheek. | |

A central premise of Kaiserreich: Legacy of the Weltkrieg is to give more obscure figures in history like John Reed and Boris Savinkov the chance to shape the world as opposed to leaders of World War II in our timeline.note To wit, Stalin, Churchill, Charles De Gaulle, are Demoted to Extra and Mao doesn't even get a cameo. Hitler, Chiang Kai Shek and FDR suffer Death by Adaptation before the games' events. Mussolini meanwhile has to fight 4/5 Italian rival states under his National Syndicalist Regime to regain his prominence, thus leaving Hirohito the only one from our timeline to mirror his prominence. This even extends to nations in the game, that can capture the world's attention even though it was unremarkable during World War II in our timeline. | |

Fire Emblem Fates manages to have two of these: The Hidden Truths DLC is dedicated to showing why and how Owain, Inigo and Severa from Awakening reappeared as Odin, Selena and Laslow in Fates. It also showcases the Team Pet Lilith and the Avatar's father, Good Anankos aka The Man Behind the Man's Enemy Without. The Second Generation group had been Demoted to Extra, but they get the Heirs of Fates DLC stages dedicted to them and their struggles in a Crapsack World version of their worlds. |

The Stormlight Archive: The books shift between a fairly large number of different viewpoints, but each book has one character as the primary viewpoint character who's backstory is explored through flashbacks. Additionally a side character has their story told through multiple interlude chapters between sections. The Way of Kings (2010) has Kaladin as the flashback character and Szeth as the interlude character, Words of Radiance has Shallan as the flashback character and Eshonai as the interlude character, and Oathbringer has Dalinar as the flashback character and Venli as the interlude character. Several more minor characters also get one off point of view chapters throughout the series. | |

An interesting variation in Big Finish Doctor Who's "The Maltese Penguin", which is - on paper - a "Doctor-lite episode" featuring the Doctor only as a Drop-In Character in a few brief scenes, while most of the action centres on obscure Expanded Universe companion Frobisher trying to solve a mystery without the Doctor's help. However, one of the conceits of the story is that Frobisher has assumed the form of the Sixth Doctor for most of it, meaning that the role of Frobisher is played by Sixth Doctor actor Colin Baker, with Frobisher's usual voice actor providing Frobisher's internal monologue. | |

Vow of Nudity: The story Diary of a Catgirl focuses entirely on Fiora, who previously only appeared as a Guest-Star Party Member in a single story. The series protagonist, Haara, only appears in the Framing Device of witnessing it in her dreams thanks to a lingering aftereffect of the amnesid they fought together. | |

The Smallville fanfic Stepping Up is an example of this trope. It's part of a series of fics collectively known as the "Sheriff Kent AU" (in a nutshell, Clark Kent is a regular human and the sheriff of Smallville). Most of the fics in the series focus on Clark's adventures, except for "Stepping Up" which focuses on how Clark's deputy Whitney Fordman handles being in charge when Clark is kidnapped. | |

She gets some Character Development, which was due since Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney. After her backstory and Character Development in the previous game, Athena is left behind in terms of plot relevance and limelight... but then she gets all Case 4 to herself, along with Simon Blackquill, who was not heard of since Dual Destinies. |

The Legend of Zelda: The Sheikah in The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. Originally introduced in Ocarina of Time as the tribe Zelda's nurse/ladysmaid/bodyguard Impa belonged to and being the traditional guardians of Hyrule's royal line, she remained their only representative across the subsequent games aside from the Sheikah Stones and a few miscellaneous items bearing their eye emblem. In this game, however, they collectively play a much larger role in the plot, being the creators of the diverse Magitek across the ruins of Hyrule (including the Sheikah Slate, the Guardians, and the Shrines), and having their many ancient monks provide Link with abilities for his quest. Furthermore, there is also now an entire Wutai-themed village of Sheikah of various ages. For Impa herself, Hyrule Warriors splits the party into three at the beginning of the second act, allowing her and Sheik to be the main characters of the Ocarina of Time branch. |

Haruhi Suzumiya's Yuki Nagato has her spotlight in the fourth book, The Disappearance of Haruhi Suzumiya, which was adapted to a full-length movie. In fact, it's more of a Hostile Show Takeover, even after that arc. Also, just as the fourth book could be considered Nagato's day in the limelight, the seventh book, The Scheme of Haruhi Suzumiya, could be considered Mikuru's as well as the earlier chapter "The Melancholy of Mikuru Asahina." | |

Mass Effect 2: There's a level late in the game where you control Joker. The loyalty missions are limelight episodes, gaining some valuable insights and revelations from your squadmates with Shepard helping them throughout it. To have the best chance of success on the suicide mission, you must do all of them which means each one of your squad mates will have at least one episode of Character Focus. |

Batman does this quite a bit: An issue of Legends of the Dark Knight focused on virtually forgotten c-lister "the Spook" after his release from Blackgate penitentiary. He winds up being so paranoid that Batman is stalking him that he commits a crime just to go back to Blackgate where he has peace of mind. "Mr Freeze": a retelling of his origin narrated by Freeze himself. Written by Paul Dini, who created the modern Mr. Freeze. "Scarface: A Psychodrama" focuses on the Ventriloquist as he attempts to go straight and also, creepily, on the puppet that still causes death and pain even without him. |

Super Mario Bros.: Luigi is usually Player Two or absent completely, but he's actually been the main character quite a few times: The first was an educational game Mario Is Missing!. Luigi's Mansion gave him his first canonical starring role as the main character. In observance of the 30th anniversary of Luigi's debut, Satoru Iwata himself put on a Luigi cap and declared 2013 The Year of Luigi. In this year, a sequel to the original Luigi's Mansion (Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon), Luigi-centered DLC for New Super Mario Bros. U, a Dr. Mario game that stars Luigi instead, and a fourth Mario & Luigi title centered around commanding an army of Luigis were released. The Nintendo Adventure Books, Leaping Lizards and Koopa Capers had Luigi on a solo adventure. Being a long-time character commonly known for being the Damsel in Distress, Princess Peach has her fair share of her own adventures where she is the main protagonist. She first gets one in Super Princess Peach, where she gets to turn the tables and rescue Mario and Luigi from Bowser. She gets another in Princess Peach: Showtime! where she has to save a theater from the Sour Bunch led by the evil Grape with the help of the theater's guardian Stella. Yoshi spun off into his own series starting with Yoshi's Island. Wario actually has two spinoff franchises starring him; the Wario series and the WarioWare series. After getting tired of throwing barrels at plumbers, Donkey Kong branched off into the Donkey Kong Country series. In turn Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest stars his sidekick, Diddy Kong (often considered the most popular game in the series). And Diddy Kong got another Day In The Limelight with Diddy Kong Racing. Diddy's sidekick, Dixie Kong, got her own game in Donkey Kong Country 3: Dixie Kong's Double Trouble!. Even Bowser gets in on the action. Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story has Bowser as the main protagonist. He's forced to take back the Mushroom Kingdom from Fawful (with aid from the Mario Brothers, who spend most of the game inside his body futzing around with his internal systems to occasionally power up the big lug) and takes a massive Level In Badass as he reluctantly becomes the hero. Mario Party 10 puts him into the spotlight again, with him receiving focus on the cover, the Mario Party mode giving him more presence than usual, and the Bowser Party mode featuring him as the main playable character for the first time in a Mario Party game. Toad has Wario's Woods and an episode in The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3. And the main mode of Mario Party: Star Rush places the spotlight on the different colored Toads who serve as the default playable characters, and are treated as the leaders of their teams at the end of each game. Waluigi, while not having any game to his name, only appearing in spinoffs, had a couple of great moments and stages to himself. In the Mario Tennis series and Mario Golf: Toadstool Tour, he and Wario are featured the most in the games intro scenes, and he appeared without Wario in the GBA game (considering that both Mario Golf and the Mario Tennis series are developed by Camelot, this makes sense). In Mario Party 3, he is a Climax Boss of sorts, hijacking the villain spot from Bowser and being battled on his own board, and had some great themes in addition. In Dance Dance Revolution Mario Mix, while only serving as the first boss, he had one of the best musics to dance to, and in Mario Kart DS, he had Waluigi Pinball, an entire track dedicated to him. In Mario Sports Mix, he again has a pinball stage. Super Mario Party gives him the aptly named rhythm minigame "Time To Shine", in which he takes center stage and dances while the players mimic his poses. And he gets one of the major recurring roles in Golf Adventure in Mario Golf: Super Rush. In New Super Mario Bros. 2, The Koopalings act as the main antagonists for the entire game. Even though Bowser acts as the final boss, he does not appear at all before then, and the Koopalings enchant him in order to actually kick things off. Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker gives the spotlight to Captain Toad, previously a bit character in Super Mario Galaxy and Super Mario 3D World along with Toadette, who previously mostly appeared in spinoffs. Mario and friends only appear at the very end of the game in a surprising twist. Whilst Princess Daisy is seen as one of the most neglected characters in Mario history, she does have some time in the spotlight. In Mario Kart: Double Dash!!, there is a course dedicated to her and her cruiser. This cruiser is seen throughout the game. Mario Kart Wii continues this further, with references to Sarasaland and her palace plus the introduction of Baby Daisy. There's even a statue of Luigi and Daisy dancing together, confirming previous fan speculation about her relationship with him. Bowser's son, Bowser Jr. takes the role of central villain for most of Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle for the first time since New Super Mario Bros. Wii. And unlike that game, Bowser is on vacation and has nothing to do with the events of the game until the end. Thanks to the Superstar Saga remake, the entire Koopa Troop gets one in the form of Minion Quest: The Search for Bowser. The Bowser's Inside Story remake features a sequel starring Bowser Jr. The quest for the fifth streamer in Paper Mario: The Origami King features Kamek as a Guest-Star Party Member in addition to Bowser Jr. |

Each story in Danganronpa -- Coda centers on a different character. Resolve centers on Hajime, Fuyuhiko, Kazuichi, and Akane as they explore a post-tragedy Tokyo. Though most of it is told in third-person from Kazuichi's perspective. Esse is all focused on Nagito and Hajime as the former is trying to sort out his place as The Friend Nobody Likes. Resuscitate focuses on Peko trying to find a sense of identity and purpose after spending her whole life as a cold assassin. Amacita focuses on Fuyuhiko and Kazuichi as they think about what life was like prior to the Tragedy. |

Frozen: Reunion Road has Kai, Arendelle Castle's head butler and trusted advisor to the royal family, given a more prominent role compared to the few minutes of screen time he had in the main film series. The comic also shed some light regarding his origins, as it is established that he was born and raised in a kingdom called Snoob along with his estranged brother Karl. | |

In the HookerVerse, the Original Character club-girls have all got a fic to themselves to deepen their characters. This practice started with rachelleneveu's "the stars have all faded here", which took a look at Stacey, who had only before been a woman who had a really big crush on The Angry Video Game Nerd, and has only continued since that author left the fandom. | |

The Asterix series features four Roman camps surrounding the main character's home village; the exact legionnaries stationed in these camps varies from one storyline to another, so the camps themselves can be considered characters. While various Roman officials use those camps as a base while setting up their latest campaign against the Gauls, the camp of Laudanum is the least-used of the four. Aside from cases where all four camps have taken part in a mass attack on the village, to date Laudanum's only starring role has been in "Asterix and Caesar's Gift", where the other camps have had at least three stories each where their residents are the focus of the latest plot, as the latest campaign against the Gauls is based in one particular camp, either using the legion already stationed there or through some Roman agent attempting a new plan. | |

The Simpsons: Tapped Out: The 2020 event "Black History" puts Dr. Hibbert, Lou, and Carl at the fore, as the event revolves around them being asked by Mayor Quimby to speak at Springfield's first public Black History Month celebration. A later 2020 event revolves around Milhouse, with the storyline about Milhouse celebrating his birthday and becoming popular by hanging out with his cousin Annika. Bart tries to sabotage his friend's popularity, but every attempt to do so ends up making Milhouse even more popular. |

The ONE episode "Rhetorical Molds" puts a major focus on one of the contestants, Moldy, and explains a little more about her. Most of the challenge portion of the episode was spent on Moldy explaining her past to her three teammates as she does the challenge, and The Stinger (which is surprisingly long) shows a Flashback of her arguing with a former friend prior to her getting teleported into the Plane by Airy. | |

Whilst Princess Daisy is seen as one of the most neglected characters in Mario history, she does have some time in the spotlight. In Mario Kart: Double Dash!!, there is a course dedicated to her and her cruiser. This cruiser is seen throughout the game. Mario Kart Wii continues this further, with references to Sarasaland and her palace plus the introduction of Baby Daisy. There's even a statue of Luigi and Daisy dancing together, confirming previous fan speculation about her relationship with him. | |

Similarly, each of the Hero characters in Xenoblade Chronicles 3 have unique questlines and discussion topics that focus on them and their aspirations. For instance, Riku and Manana are initially unlocked as Hero characters via their Hero Quest in which Riku seeks a particular kind of gemstone from the Urayan mines for crafting purposes, and are further upgraded after their Ascension Quest where Manana attempts to become apprentice to a famous Nopon chef. | |

Animorphs #29: The Sickness gave Cassie one of these. She gets as many POV books as the other characters, but in this one everyone but her gets sick, forcing her to go on a very dangerous mission alone. Oh, and give Ax brain surgery. There are also prequel novels focused on Elfangor and the Ellimist, plus a Villain Episode about Visser One and how she began the invasion of Earth. |

Archie Comics does this every now and again, given its Cast of Snowflakes. Characters like Big Moose, Dilton, Mr. Lodge, Mr. Weatherbee and Big Ethel primarily serve as Foils for more prominent characters like Archie and Jughead, but they sometimes get the focus in their own stories. These range from Big Moose learning he has dyslexia to Mr. Lodge turning a rival businessman's con game against him to Big Ethel becoming Riverdale High's Prom Queen. | |

The Multiversity: This is basically the Multiverse's day in the limelight, and what makes this even more significant is that the main DC Universe (Earth-0) and its heroes are not the saviors as they were in every other Multiverse-related catastrophe. The main fighting force is comprised of heroes from different Earths, and none of them are forced to measure up to their Earth-0 counterparts. The Just #1 is this for DC's Legacy Characters, especially those who suffered a legacy implosion or two. The various one-shots are this for their respective universes, which are given less spotlight in the main Multiversity duology. |

The My Little Pony Micro Series issues focus on a particular pony (or group of ponies in the case of the Cutie Mark Crusaders), starting with the Mane Six and moving on from there. Rarity's issue featured a short about Hayseed Turnip Truck of all ponies. Similarly, My Little Pony: Friends Forever focuses on a pairing of two characters, be they from the Mane Cast (e.g., Applejack & Pinkie Pie, Applejack & Rarity, Twilight Sparkle & Pinkie Pie), a character from the Mane and Side Casts (e.g., Rainbow Dash & Trixie, Rarity & Babs Seed, Twilight Sparkle & Big McIntosh, etc.), or two characters just from the side cast (e.g., Spike & Princess Celestia, Diamond Tiara & SilverSpoon, Granny Smith & Flim and Flam, etc.) |

Final Fantasy series: Final Fantasy VI has this in the World of Ruin - Relm's painting, Gau's father, Strago and Hidon, Cyan's Dream, Locke and Celes in the Phoenix Cave... every main character in the game gets a subquest which explores their backstory and wraps it up. Final Fantasy VII gives every playable character a portion of the game that relates to their backstories, motivations, and growth. There's Red XIII's learning the true story of his father's disappearance, Barret's tragic reunion with his insane former best friend, Yuffie's Wutai Theft and her reasons to do so, Vincent's Dark and Troubled Past, and so on. The first three DLC episodes for Final Fantasy XV focus on your party members Gladiolus, Prompto, and Ignis respectively. The fourth and final episode DLC is focused on Ardyn. There's a whole series of games starring the recurring species Chocobo, including Chocobo Racing and Chocobo's Dungeon. |

In The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel IV, instead of starting the game as Rean, players start the game as Juna, one of Rean's students. This is because at the climax of Cold Steel III, Rean is captured by Osborne and is taken to the Black Workshop due to him losing control of his Superpowered Evil Side. Act 1 is dedicated to Juna and Class VII figuring out where Rean and the Black Workshop are at and infiltrated the place to rescue their instructor and friend. | |

Patlabor 2: The Movie is very much a film about Captain Shinobu Nagumo, who is usually the Hero of Another Story since she leads Division 1 when the franchise usually focuses on Division 2. Nagumo is the viewpoint character for much of the film as well as the Big Bad's ex-lover, and gets top billing on the cover art, a spot usually taken by Noa Izumi and Alphonse. | |

In the Age of Fire series, the first three books each focus, respectively, on the sole POV of one of the three sibling protagonists. The rest of the books continue to focus on them, but alternate between them. Then we get the final book, which also adds in POV chapters from various other, mostly minor, characters. | |

Sonic the Hedgehog: Knuckles got his own game called Knuckles Chaotix, which was also a day in the limelight for the eponymous Chaotix group. Interestingly, despite Metal Sonic's presence in the game, Sonic does not appear until the very end. Tails has also gotten two games of his own: Tails Adventure and Tails Skypatrol, but the second was a very obscure Game Gear game only released in Japan (at least until Sonic Adventure DX). Dr. Robotnik gets his own game called Dr. Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine which was actually a cleverly-hidden clone of the Japanese-only Puyo Puyo (1992) (likewise, Kirby's Avalanche is just a Kirby-fied version of Puyo Puyo). Shadow also got his own game, which went in a different direction by being primarily a Third-Person Shooter with only some of the more familiar Sonic elements mixed in. In Sonic Forces, he also gets a DLC titled "Episode Shadow", taking place before the events of the main game. It follows Shadow infiltrating Eggman's base and also exploring the origins of Infinite; as well as him being playable in Modern Sonic's stages. In Sonic Heroes, each of the four teams gets an arc, so many of the characters (notably all of Team Chaotix, who hadn't been seen since Chaotix, mentioned above) get far more focus than in their other appearances. If you purchase both episodes of Sonic the Hedgehog 4 on the same device, a bonus episode will be unlocked that features Metal Sonic as the main character. The episode itself follows what happened after his defeat in Sonic CD. Cream the Rabbit, first introduced in Sonic Advance 2 is not only a playable character, but is a key part of Sonic Dream Team's narrative, being Eggman's "filter" to access the Reverie and developing a close friendship with Ariem, the Reverie's guardian. Cream and Cheese even get to deliver the finishing blow to Eggman in the ending. |

Spider-Man: Different characters have gotten this treatment over the years. Ordinary supporting cast members, villains, and second-tier heroes who made their debuts in the spider-comics have all been spotlighted in various one-shots and side stories. Gerry Conway's late 1980s, early 1990s The Spectacular Spider-Man run was built upon the concept of "A Day In the Limelight", as far as his run centering around Joe Robertson, a longtime supporting cast member of Spider-Man. Similarly, the only Spider-Man stories by loathed writer Howard Mackie that are liked by fans are the ones that had Howard focusing on the supporting cast members. The now-cancelled but very excellent Spider-Man's Tangled Web series was based on this premise. Only 2 stories actually starred Spider-Man rather than his rogues and supporting cast. The Superior Foes of Spider-Man follows an iteration of the Sinister Six consisting of five C-Listers. Issue #7 in particular is focused on The Beetle's childhood and origin story. The tie-ins for the Spider-Verse and Spider-Geddon events serve as this, focusing on various beings with spider-based powers from across the multiverse, some of whom became popular enough to have their own ongoing series, like Spider-Gwen. |

Winnie the Pooh: Thanks to being a Long Runner and featuring many characters who quickly became Breakout Characters, there are three movies focusing on side characters: The first is The Tigger Movie which features Tigger and his search for his family as the main focus. Similar to the Tigger movie, Piglet's Big Movie focuses on Pooh's best friend Piglet who wants to prove his worth to his friends. While the main story is set in the present, the movie features three stories from the original novels which highlight Piglet's involvement far more than the books via flashbacks. Other than the name suggests, the main character of Pooh's Heffalump Movie is Roo, who serves as a Kid-Appeal Character for the young audience (while Pooh himself serves as the Narrator of the story). This movie also introduces Canon Foreigner Lumpy into the franchise. |

In Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Reflecting Balance, Chapter 16 focuses mostly on a day in the life of supporting character Azure the Azurill, and also serves as Foreshadowing for her wanting to join the main characters' rescue team, which she ends up doing a few chapters later after evolving into a Marill off-screen. Chapter 27 focuses on Blitz's mentor, Hercules the Heracross, dealing partially with the aftermath of the last few chapters. Chapter 49 is the first chapter set during the present day in which none of the main characters even appear, as the chapter focuses on Blitz's family at Lightning Plateau, and the return of Blitz's father. |

Bait and Switch: The Headhunt is told from the perspective of Dul'krah, Clan Korekh, the USS Bajor's security chief, rather than its captain Kanril Eleya as is usual for the author, and highlights his psychology. Among other things his internal monologue refers to himself and the other command crew members of the Bajor as "elders" and Kanril as the "great elder". "Frostbite" has Eleya leave early on and uses Tess Phohl (XO and tactical officer) and Birail Riyannis (science officer) as the viewpoint characters. |

In El Goonish Shive, the Bringing Silly Back arc seems to be his for secondary character Noah. Also, Justin gets a lot more attention in this arc than previous ones. The EGS:NP side strips do this sometimes, notably the canon arcs "Marker", focusing on Pandora, and "Escape from the Mall", which centers on Rhoda and Catalina. |

Unsounded: Vienne is years dead by the time of the story, only brought up in reference to her husband's guilt over her death and her surviving work, but she's the main character of the side story Vienne of Seferpine. Sarthos has been missing for decades by the time Unsounded starts, but gets obliquely referenced by Lemuel and Duane. They're one of the main characters of the side story "Interior Emanations". |

Ultimate Sleepwalker: The New Dreams takes an unusual twist with this trope in that the action has occasionally focused on Spider-Man rather than on Sleepwalker. The reason it's unusual is that subverting Popularity Power and C-List Fodder is one of the hallmarks of the series, giving second-stringers the spotlight and relegating A-listers to guest star appearances. | |

The last chapter of the third book, The Will to Battle, is written by the Servicer whom Mycroft names Outis earlier in the book, after Mycroft himself is presumed to have died. In a Call-Back to the first book, where Mycroft claims the narrator should introduce himself to the reader by stating his name, background and qualifications but never reveals the later two, Outis reveals both his backstory and qualifications at length but refuses to name himself, then reveals that he's been training to become the next Anonymous behind the scenes. It would seem like Outis will be the chronicler from now on but Mycroft chimes in with a short note that he's still alive and will return after this chapter. | |

Most early Queen albums had two or three songs sung by Roger Taylor or Brian May instead of Freddie Mercury. Taylor's "I'm In Love With My Car", the B-side of "Bohemian Rhapsody", is probably the most famous of the bunch. That or Brian May's "39" from the same album. | |

The Bolt Chronicles: Vinny, Joey, and Bobby, three New York pigeons who are minor characters in canon and minimally appear in the fanfic series, are the focus characters in "The Protection Payment." It follows the trio's quest to obtain food tribute for Mittens, aided by their canine friend Kelvin. The Director, (named "James" in this series after his voice actor), is the primary character in "The Pilot," the fic serving in part as his Backstory. He otherwise appears minimally in these stories and is a minor character in canon. |

Trails Series: In The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel IV, instead of starting the game as Rean, players start the game as Juna, one of Rean's students. This is because at the climax of Cold Steel III, Rean is captured by Osborne and is taken to the Black Workshop due to him losing control of his Superpowered Evil Side. Act 1 is dedicated to Juna and Class VII figuring out where Rean and the Black Workshop are at and infiltrated the place to rescue their instructor and friend. The Legend of Heroes: Trails through Daybreak has the first, second, and fourth chapters primarily focus on Feri, Aaron, and Quatre respectively, showing the events that lead to each of them joining the Arkride Solutions Office. |

The second is Night Whispers, which is about Flametail struggling to figure out the secrets of a mysterious omen from StarClan, which foretells his death. Then there are all the novellas, which, so far, have given the spotlight to Mistystar, Cloudstar, and Tigerstar, with Mapleshade and Goosefeather novellas forthcoming. | |

Pokémon Reset Bloodlines does this a lot with its "Interlude" tie-in oneshots, focusing on events that happen during the main story and with characters that aren't Ash and company. Some of these have even Characters of the Day as their protagonists. | |

The Simpsons video games: The Simpsons Hit & Run: Level 5 centers around Apu, the only playable character who is not part of the Simpson family, and a secondary character in the original show. Apart from Homer selling a required car and Bart being a companion at the end, the main characters do not appear at all in the level's main story. The Simpsons: Tapped Out: The 2020 event "Black History" puts Dr. Hibbert, Lou, and Carl at the fore, as the event revolves around them being asked by Mayor Quimby to speak at Springfield's first public Black History Month celebration. A later 2020 event revolves around Milhouse, with the storyline about Milhouse celebrating his birthday and becoming popular by hanging out with his cousin Annika. Bart tries to sabotage his friend's popularity, but every attempt to do so ends up making Milhouse even more popular. |

In the Heights has the Piragua Guy: a man not even referred to by his real name, only known for selling shaved ice to the residents of the Barrio. However, he gets two songs all to himself, one in Act I and the other in Act II, all about how he runs the town and telling his rival, an ice cream truck run by a man named Mr. Softee, to get out of town. The first song is usually done due to the need for a major scene change, giving the audicnce something to focus on, and the one in Act II is done to raise the mood after the Act’s rather gloomy moment of Abuela Claudia’s death. | |

Even Bowser gets in on the action. Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story has Bowser as the main protagonist. He's forced to take back the Mushroom Kingdom from Fawful (with aid from the Mario Brothers, who spend most of the game inside his body futzing around with his internal systems to occasionally power up the big lug) and takes a massive Level In Badass as he reluctantly becomes the hero. Mario Party 10 puts him into the spotlight again, with him receiving focus on the cover, the Mario Party mode giving him more presence than usual, and the Bowser Party mode featuring him as the main playable character for the first time in a Mario Party game. | |

The Pucca television series has several of these. The one for Santa Claus is probably the most notable, solely for establishing the... unique character history that he was a former ninja thief that, after realizing it was wrong to steal things out of people's houses, decided to use his skill in stealth and infiltration for bringing presents into people's houses instead. | |

Revolutions has a habit of using "supplemental" episodes to talk about people from the historical period under discussion who are interesting but whose full stories would distract from the main narrative. Particularly prominent examples include asides on Talleyrand and the Duke of Orléans/Philippe Égalité during Season 3 (on the French Revolution). | |

Homestar Runner: "The King of Town's Very Own Quite Popular Cartoon Show". Initially subverted in that when it was originally released, it was just a well-disguised Strong Bad Email, but they actually released one a year later. "No Hands on Deck" is the first Homestar-centered cartoon since the 2005 Halloween Episode "Halloween Potion-Ma-Jig" (not counting puppet stuff like "Homestar vs. Other Little Girl" or the "Puppet Jam" sessions with They Might Be Giants). It's also one of the few Homestar shorts where Strong Bad doesn't appear at all. "A Folky Tale" is the only story centered around Strong Sad and Coach Z (who rarely have anything to do with each other). It's one of the very few toons on the site where neither Homestar Runner nor Strong Bad shows up anywhere. "Where U Going 2?" is a short cartoon that revolves around a day in the life of The Cheat, which apparently involves singing in Marzipan's choir, doing freelance animation work, and practicing flaming lay-up drills. |

A Growing Affection: the last major arc of book one has a lot of these, focusing on various Leaf ninja teams as they participate in a massive battle. Chapter 54 is about the first official mission of Team Yugao Kiba, Shino, Sasame Fuma, and Yugao Uzuki. Chapter 61 sends Sakura and Rock Lee to rescue a weaponsmith from bandits who intend to sell him the Akatsuki, and gives Lee a chance to show off his skills as a more traditional ninja. |

Ace Attorney: In Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – Trials and Tribulations, Edgeworth serves as the Player Character for 30%-40% of Case 5. He also shows up in Case 4, but as an NPC. His role outside playability isn't that great either in this game compared to the previous ones. Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – Spirit of Justice: After being Demoted to Extra in Dual Destinies, Trucy becomes the focus in Case 2 as the defendant. She gets some Character Development, which was due since Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney. After her backstory and Character Development in the previous game, Athena is left behind in terms of plot relevance and limelight... but then she gets all Case 4 to herself, along with Simon Blackquill, who was not heard of since Dual Destinies. |

Star Wars Legends: Wedge Antilles is always a rather major character in the X-Wing Series. But his role as The Captain and The Hero tends to give him less personal plotlines than his fellow main characters. Elscol feels out-of-place and is reckless. Gavin Darklighter worries about living up to his cousin Biggs' reputation and has to deal with being the kid. Corran Horn handles his attraction to The Mole and the daughter of the criminal whose father was his father's enemy, as well as learning that he's a Jedi's grandson. Tycho Celchu patiently bears up under suspicion and quietly mourns a lost homeworld. Asyr wrestles with allegiance issues. Then there's the Wraiths. But most of Wedge's plotlines don't affect him very much personally. He gets determined and angry at various points, he works to improve morale, he leads and inspires them, he's unhappy when his friends die, but he's the Reasonable Authority Figure and his Character Development is assumed to have taken place beforehand. It's impersonal and he's kind of the generic Good Guy, with occasional flashes of his personality showing. Sometimes a few pages or even scenes are given over to personal things, but his real day in the limelight is the novel "Starfighters of Adumar". The Tales series of books (Tales of the New Republic, Tales from Jabba's Palace, etc.) take on much of this role, fleshing out many of the minor or background characters from the films (such as Oola, the Twi'lek dancing girl Jabba feeds to the Rancor) or giving supporting EU characters like Mara Jade (pre-NJO) and Kyp Durron something to do without direct involvement of the principle cast as well. Others are unique characters invented for that particular book, but still manage to give the limelight to some aspect of the universe normally not shown in detail. Mara Jade: By The Emperor's Hand is another Day in the Limelight for Mara. Shadows of the Empire: Evolution was this for Guri, a Human Replica Droid assassin and The Dragon to Prince Xixor. |

After getting terribly mistreated in "Jesse's Master Plan" on Sky Williams' channel, fans complained about how mean everyone has been getting toward Jesse. As a reaction to this, Sky and co. gave Jesse the spotlight and let him call all the shots in their League of Legends session — where normally nobody would exactly "call the shots" — in the video titled "Jesse's Game." Of course, he abused his new leadership role and put everyone in team roles they didn't enjoy. The group horribly lost their match. | |

A borderline case being the Asagi Wars mode of Prinny 2, as well as Asagi Mode in the original. While Prinny: Can I Really Be the Hero? is, in itself, a day in the limelight for the titular ensemble darkhorses, each of those alternate modes focus on Asagi (with Asagi Wars actually finally having her in the role of main protagonist). | |

Ars Magica: This is a core element of troupe-based gameplay. Because Magi often need to spend seasons or years on long-term tasks like lab work, every player has at least one backup Companion to go adventuring while their Magus is tied up, and could even play as the Grogs who do the minor mundane work in Magical Society. | |

Contraptionology!: The entire story focuses on Applejack, at least from her perspective, and on her frustration with having been pushed increasingly out of friend group's and town's limelight when Twilight came along. | |

Every now and then, there's an issue of Fantastic Four that focuses on Franklin Richards. Several issues and stories over the years have had Doctor Doom as the focus of the story with the Fantastic Four seen only in flashbacks if seen at all. One Fantastic Four story entitled "The House That Reed Built" featured The Trapster being tracked and finally apprehended by the Baxter Building's automated security. |

The tie-ins for the Spider-Verse and Spider-Geddon events serve as this, focusing on various beings with spider-based powers from across the multiverse, some of whom became popular enough to have their own ongoing series, like Spider-Gwen. | |

The chapters called "One Shots" in Angel of the Bat feature different characters as the focus rather than main protagonist Cassandra Cain. "The Burning One" describes The Seraphim's[ backstory, "The Prodigal Son" and "Jael" both feature Stephanie Brown and Jason Todd heavily and Gordon is featured most of anyone in "Malachi". | |
