Ascended Fanboy	comment	Some fans are a cut above the regular otaku. For most, it is as simple as being hired to work in the industry that deals with the media you love, but in fiction, it can take a whole new meaning. The Ascended Fanboy/Fangirl is that lucky one-in-a-million with a hobby based on something imaginary which does not stay imaginary—it turns into reality, and he becomes a part of it himself. A variation is where it is imaginary to us but not in the context of the world, such as a mecha fan, in a world full of mecha, getting to pilot one. For those lucky few, they receive the Call to Adventure, and ask: "How high?" Naturally, it is never so easy or glamorous as they thought it would be, but they've got the right stuff, and a whole lot of Beginner's Luck to last them until it comes out. As a side effect, they're usually Genre Savvy, sometimes to the point of excess. Of course you know, they could be wrong. Often a former The Team Wannabe. Who the fan works for is often their idol. Subtrope of Audience Surrogate. Compare The Knights Who Say "Squee!". Contrast with Loony Fan. See also I Know Mortal Kombat, which often results in this. Note: This trope is for in-universe examples. For the Real Life counterpart, see Promoted Fanboy. This has nothing to do with that kind of ascension, at least unless the fan really likes Daniel Jackson.

Ascended Fanboy / int_10db6411	comment	All the human character in the Digimon V-Tamer 01's Digimon world were fans of the V-pets except for Rei Saiba. Taichi's the least fanboyish of them, as the other tamers either have more monsters, higher evolved monsters or both and he openly admits to not bothering with the latest line of V-pets, which leaves him unfamiliar with others' monsters.

She eventually awakened as Flash Cut and even began to hang out with HP. However, she never seemed to make the transition from 'fangirl' to 'friend' in her mind, so when HP cut off their friendship over Cassidy going Clingy Jealous Girl and attacking Undine physically and with accusations that she was behind the Team Alchemical disaster, Cassidy took it badly.

Ascended Fanboy / int_16fc4335	comment	The Arrows trilogy is about Talia, a fangirl born in a medieval setting. She loved songs (and books, when they were available) about the brave, capable, egalitarian Heralds who lived far away in the capital. So the day an oddly intelligent white horse showed up to interrupt her Arranged Marriage and take her away to the Heralds' college was the best day of her life. The trope is depicted positively- the Heralds of Talia's fantasies aren't significantly more flawed in real life, nor did she expect that the job would be without danger. Most of all, it gave her comfort and hope during a very harsh childhood.

He's actually very good at handling the weapons he gushes over, he just didn't expect to need these skills in real life in order to fight zombies. He is often told that some of the things he claims (like being trained by Blackwater USA during a trip to America) make him sound like a manga character. One part of Blackwater's business is firearms and tactical training. All you have to do is pay a few thousand dollars and they'll teach anyone how to shoot military weapons like a professional. Many Japanese gun enthusiasts go on overseas trips just to go shoot guns, especially in Guam.

After several months of jokingly campaigning on Twitter, Scott managed to get in contact with the chain's management, which permitted him to replace the store's video with his own and host a fan event there... two days before the store permanently closed, and just a few weeks before the COVID-19 Pandemic would break out and lead to the end of the entire chain.

In fact, it was Hermod's idea to hide inside a DVD because he thought a Magical Girl Anime fan would make an ideal candidate to become the next valkyrie. Obviously, it didn't work out as planned.

Ascended Fanboy / int_2a8943c0	comment	Miraculous Ladybug: Adrien is a Lonely Rich Kid whose father basically never let him out of the house. Comics where superheroes went on exciting adventures and fought monsters were his only outlet...so when a kwami materialized in Adrien's room to give him superpowers, he had a pretty good idea of what was happening. (This is why his transformation pose looks so cheesy- he's been practicing.) This trope makes him both kinda jealous of the magic, and the team's moral center- he's the most insistent that if they're going to be heroes they should act like heroes. Alya is a huge fan of superhero comics as well as an aspiring journalist, so when actual superheroes appeared in Paris she jumped at the chance to document their adventures. When she eventually gets to use a Miraculous herself, she's ecstatic.

One bolt of lightning later, you have an Ascended Fanboy, and The Silver Age of Comic Books is born. As was Wally West, who dreamed of being like the Flash as a kid (helped along by a visit from his time-travelling future self). Then, in a repetition of the accident which gave Barry Allen his powers whilst visiting his lab, Wally became Kid Flash, Barry's protege and eventual successor. The first Reverse-Flash is retconned to be one of these Gone Horribly Wrong. Eobard Thawne was a fan of Barry Allen from the future who found ways to replicate his powers, costume, and appearance all with the intention of coming back to the past to run alongside Barry. It only goes wrong when he arrives after Barry's death and Wally has already taken over the role. Addled from time travel and the discovery that he will one day become Professor Zoom, he briefly deludes himself into thinking he is Barry and fools everyone else in the process.

Ascended Fanboy / int_41b0198a	comment	The Alphas from The Dresden Files were RPG enthusiasts and college students before they were taught how to become werewolves; now, they're one of the forces that makes sure Chicago stays safe for mortals. In a partial subversion, upon becoming werewolves, most of them went for "tough guy/gal" leather ensembles... only for them to a) look slightly ridiculous and b) turn out to be massively impractical when the time to shapeshift came about. They do get out of that phase, though. Even more with Butters. He starts in Dead Beat (book 7) as a 90-pound Jewish nerd coroner and polka fan that tried to join the police and the army but never got to because he was not physically up to par. As of Skin Game (book 15), he is a great magical theorist and can create magical objects even though he has no magic himself, defended Chicago Batman-style while Harry Dresden and Molly Carpenter were unable to, and ends up becoming a Knight of the Cross when he grabs the broken Fideiacchius and it turns into the Lightsaber of Faith. Thus becoming an Ascended Fanboy from two universes. He is a Jedi Knight of the Cross, you see...

Ascended Fanboy / int_44127c7c	comment	Power Rangers: Justin from Power Rangers Turbo can certainly qualify, especially considering his response to gaining the mantle of the Blue Turbo Ranger. Mack from Power Rangers Operation Overdrive might be a more pronounced example, with his specific love of adventure books and sneaking off with the morpher intended for his Adventurer Archaeologist father. Dustin from Power Rangers Ninja Storm is a less pronounced example; he's a comic book fan whose reaction to receiving the power was "I knew it! Power Rangers are real!" but motocross is still his major interest. There's more. Computer/sci-fi geek Ethan from Power Rangers: Dino Thunder looked about to faint when he found out he'd be a Ranger, and Power Rangers Mystic Force's Chip has been shown to be a fan of superheroes and fantasy. The main Power Rangers Jungle Fury Power Trio also had big grins on their faces (or at least Theo did) when their mentor brought up the Rangers, just before they were presented with their own morphers. Subverted in Power Rangers S.P.D., where fanboy Boom is almost the only one who doesn't get a morpher at some point. Power Rangers Wild Force shows Cole reacting like a typical fanboy when he meets the previous Red Rangers, even wiping a sweaty palm on his hands when he goes to shake hands with Jason. Flynn from Power Rangers RPM was someone who had a lot of moral principles and a deep admiration for superheroes but before the Venjix attacks he couldn't channel his desires in a meaningful way without getting into trouble. After risking his life to save a group of refuges trapped outside the dome he impressed the higher ups so much that he became the Blue Ranger. His father even lampshaded that after years of telling Flynn superheroes don't exist it turns out he was looking at one all along. And then we get to Power Rangers Dino Fury... in which four of the five rangers were major fans before becoming rangers, and the fifth is an alien from 65 million years ago who had only ever heard rumors about the Morphin Grid before becoming a Ranger himself. Turns into meta when it turns out that four of the five actors were fans of the franchise before being cast and the fifth had heard about it but not watched it due to circumstances (Tessa Rao, having grown up in New Zealand, where Power Rangers wasn't aired due to fears of violence.)

Ultimate X-Men: When she first joins the team, Kitty Pryde was a fan of everything they do, as if she had joined the Ultimates. She was also a fan of Spider-Man, and eventually became her girlfriend. For a time. Ultimate Galactus Trilogy: The Ultimate Fantastic Four are fans of the Ultimates, but for different reasons. Reed and Sue? They can tinker with a spaceship alongside Tony Stark and an actual alien life form! Johnny and Ben? They can kick ass with Thor and thrash some aliens! The Ultimates: Bruce Banner had always been a fan of Captain America, the skinny guy who was turned into a supersoldier by a tech that is now lost. Captain America has been found frozen in the Artic, he's somehow still alive, and it's Banner's task to direct the medical efforts to wake him up and heal him. Of course, Bruce's own efforts to replicate the formula that created Cap didn't go well for anyone.

The Dragonborn can offer to pay for his armor so he can go adventuring, or just threaten his father into paying for it, but in either case, Erik will adopt the moniker Erik the Slayer and become a recruitable companion, fighting at the Dragonborn's side.

Ascended Fanboy / int_605dd875	comment	Stargate-verse: Lt. Col. Mitchell from Stargate SG-1 can be considered such and is sometimes actually referred to as Lt. Col. Fanboy in fannish circles. He has memorized all their mission reports and will occasionally recite passages at top speed. He is known to have had the dream of joining SG-1 to learn from them but was instead given leadership of said team after being shot down saving their lives, and Major General Jack O'Neill, the original leader of SG-1, promising Mitchell any command he wants if he's successful in his physical therapy. Double subverted in that when Lt. Col. Mitchell first received command of SG-1 he merely inherited the group's name and its TO&E, all the original members which he idolized had moved on to other things at that point. He managed to convince most of them to come back though. Which is probably why the other SG-1 members didn't mind him taking over the team (not that Jackson or Teal'c, being non-military, could've been put in command anyway, and Lt. Col. Carter didn't return to the team until months after Mitchell arrived). In addition, the job isn't quite perfect as Daniel and Teal'c are often annoyed by his relative inexperience. Said inexperience has also led to him receiving more than his fair share of scaths during his time on the team. Really, Daniel Jackson is one as well. He's not a speculative fiction fanboy, sure, but having his outlandish theories about Egyptology proven true must have tickled his fancy. Actually, he counts for bonus points on this one, doesn't he? Eli Wallace from Stargate Universe, who is recruited solely because of how much of a fanboy he is. He's also heavily implied to be the intended avatar for the audience. Well, being a fanboy and also being able to crack a complex puzzle written in a language he didn't understand, hidden in a popular online game in the hope that someone would come along and solve it. Joe Spencer from the SG-1 episode "Citizen Joe" also counts. He's been watching SG-1's adventures for years using alien phlebotinum he stumbled across, and he is suitably starstruck when he meets SG-1 in person. The whole episode is essentially "What if one of SG-1's viewers existed in-universe?"

Very closely gets there when he discovers a prototype lightsaber among Dr. Venture's yard sale. He buys it (with his boss' money) and subsequently challenges Dr. Venture's badass bodyguard Brock Samson to a fight, only to find out the "lightsaber" is just a hologram. Such is life in the Venture universe.

Ascended Fanboy / int_6d564c8	comment	Liberty Lad from Freedom Force starts off as an obnoxious Loony Fan that follows the heroes around and needs to be protected in a quasi-escort mission. Eventually, he ends up taking a bullet for his hero that possesses superhuman endurance and is largely immune to bullets, gets a magical operation, and turns into Liberty Lad. Dwight Arrow, AKA Bullet, has always loved the comics of his favorite hero Sky King, a Jet Pack-wearing Badass Normal from The '40s. This inspired him to join the US Air Force and become a jet fighter pilot, the self-styled "Fastest Man in the Sky". After getting hit with Energy X and getting Super-Speed, he finally has a chance to become a superhero like his idol. For bonus points, he ends up going back in time and helping the Sky King get his jetpack working for the first time (by using the information from the comic books).

Ascended Fanboy / int_70814599	comment	Lt. Col. Mitchell from Stargate SG-1 can be considered such and is sometimes actually referred to as Lt. Col. Fanboy in fannish circles. He has memorized all their mission reports and will occasionally recite passages at top speed. He is known to have had the dream of joining SG-1 to learn from them but was instead given leadership of said team after being shot down saving their lives, and Major General Jack O'Neill, the original leader of SG-1, promising Mitchell any command he wants if he's successful in his physical therapy. Double subverted in that when Lt. Col. Mitchell first received command of SG-1 he merely inherited the group's name and its TO&E, all the original members which he idolized had moved on to other things at that point. He managed to convince most of them to come back though. Which is probably why the other SG-1 members didn't mind him taking over the team (not that Jackson or Teal'c, being non-military, could've been put in command anyway, and Lt. Col. Carter didn't return to the team until months after Mitchell arrived). In addition, the job isn't quite perfect as Daniel and Teal'c are often annoyed by his relative inexperience. Said inexperience has also led to him receiving more than his fair share of scaths during his time on the team.

Ascended Fanboy / int_7aaf9e41	comment	Batman: Batman seems to attract ascended fans, despite his constant efforts to keep "amateurs" out of "his "town. Many of his fellow Bat-Family crimefighters were not actively recruited or trained by him. Rather, they became involved on their own and were absorbed into the larger Bat-Family afterwards. Barbara Gordon, the original Batgirl (Not counting Bette "Bat-Girl" Kane), was dressing up in a costume for a Halloween party when she stumbled into crimefighting. Prior to this, she was either disinterested in costumed adventuring or was planning to emulate different superheroes (different continuities as Batgirl: Year One give different backstories, but most at least agree that, whatever her specific plans were, they did not involve bats). That first encounter earned her the label "Batgirl" and she was automatically associated with Batman in the public consciousness. Only her subsequent refusal to stop got Batman involved in training and working with her. Tim Drake also demonstrates this trope. In his origin story, he deduces that Dick Grayson must be Robin because of a signature move they both use, spends several years of his childhood stalking and photographing Robin and Batman, and finally confronts Dick and then Bruce Wayne, insisting that "Batman needs a Robin" when Bruce is endangering himself with recklessness in the wake of Jason Todd's murder. Batman: The Dark Knight Returns: Carrie Kelly, who gets the job as Robin after buying the costume and forcing Batman to let her help return Gotham to its former glory. Batwoman also made the leap from unaffiliated hero to partner. She was already actively engaged in crimefighting on her own, explicitly emulating Batman's theme and code despite having never worked for, trained with, or been authorized by Batman. It was only after she had been patrolling Gotham City for several weeks that she encountered Nightwing and cooperated with him to combat the Religion of Crime. He later gave her a "real" Batarang as a gift, and afterwards, she is shown working and sharing information with Batman. Stephanie Brown went from spoiling her father's crimes and becoming the Spoiler to coming into the Batcave with her own Robin costume to Batgirl. Despite nearly everyone telling her to quit. In Harley's Little Black Book, it's revealed that Harley Quinn of all people is a massive Wonder Woman fangirl, and has been since childhood. She even has a hidden shrine to Wonder Woman in her closet. Batman himself is an ascended fanboy, although for meta reasons. In the first Batman comic, the film he goes to see with his parents is The Mark of Zorro, a character that strongly inspired him.

That first meeting ends up destroying their ideal Captain Kirk (especially when he starts rambling about a one-man Julius Caesar musical). By the end, though, both grow up and are shown filming this very movie with William Shatner playing himself.

They end up taking the position a little too excitedly and completely break away from the script. They get small parts in the movie, in fact, and Tama derails it by instead of being a schoolgirl running scared from Rin's 'Shinaigirl' she picks up a dropped shinai and fights back. It goes on for a while before they're stopped.

Ascended Fanboy / int_87e00d8e	comment	In Teen Titans (2003), the meta-tastic villain Control Freak is the Titans' self-proclaimed Number One Fan. He is a caricature of the stereotypical lank-haired, overweight geek, complete with overfondness for lightsabers and trenchcoats. One of his two feature episodes is chock-full of fandom references, up to and including online ship-wars. Control Freak is also tremendously disappointed in one of these episodes to discover that the Titans East (a group of C-listers he's never even heard of before) are substituting for the "real" Titans while they're away on a long-term mission, and thus the gadgets he'd designed specifically to challenge the Titans were wasted. As the Titans East have completely different powers, he escapes and comes up with new weapons to fight them... and becomes a fanboy of the Titans East as well once they defeat him. He also becomes disappointed when he finds out that the Teen Titans don't even consider him an actual villain when he discovers their list of villains and doesn't find himself listed but instead finds The Puppet King's name- a villain they had only encountered once.

Ascended Fanboy / int_8ac4e993	comment	The Gundam franchise has a few examples: Subverted by young Chang in Mobile Fighter G Gundam, who painfully finds out that Falling into the Cockpit of a Gundam isn't how he thought it would be. A rather disturbing version in Mobile Suit Gundam SEED: Clotho Bauer is a videogame nut and psychotic criminal who, along with Shani Andras and Orga Sabnak, was made a Psycho for Hire Tyke Bomb and Gundam pilot. Heck, Clotho even yells videogame quotes in the midst of battle! Tragically played with in Mobile Suit Gundam SEED Destiny. Meer Campbell was a NaÃ¯ve Everygirl who fangirled the Idol Singer Lacus Clyne and had a similar singing voice, so she often sang her songs. She was later scouted by Durandal's people, who offered her the chance to become Lacus's Body Double after she goes into retirement; Meer immediately accepted, thinking she could finally do something for the people who need Lacus's support... but as the series progressed, Meer developed serious mental and emotional issues, which later brought her her downfall. Another would be Takuya Irei from Mobile Suit Gundam Unicorn: an Ordinary High-School Student slash Mobile Suit Otaku. By the time he was rescued by the Nahel Argama after escaping the battle at Industrial 7, he got a chance to put his engineering skills to good use as one of the ship's mechanics, to the point that he came up with the titular mech's Mid-Season Upgrade. And then there's Graham "GUNDAM, I LOVE YOU!" Aker.

Ascended Fanboy / int_8ba4613a	comment	The Death Note fanfic, Story Of The Century could be looked at as a subversion and deconstructtion of this trope. OC and First-Person Peripheral Narrator, Erin, is an amateur journalist with a fondness for stories and movies, particularly of the thriller variety, who is studying abroad and looking for a story that will cement her reputation or lack thereof. She gets her wishâ€¦by getting dragged into the Kira case against her will by L himself after she sees things that would threaten the confidentiality L is trying to maintain for the investigation if she told anyone. She watches the rest of the case unravel, and when not bombarded by the shock that accompanies each turn and twist in the plot (particularly the actions that other characters [mostly L] take), or frustrated with her inability to stop the madness, whatever contributions she does make, she ends up regretting. By the end of the story, she is seen struggling with what sounds like PTSD, unable and unwilling to share the story of Lâ€™s and Kiraâ€™s battle with anyone. Although she does end up keeping a secret journal in which she spills everything, presumably for the purpose of working out her issues in private. Not long after finishing, she burns the notebook, with no one any wiser. Later, she and Matsuda (and by extension, the surviving members of the task force) find each other again online after a period of separation.

In fact, most of his tenure with the Avengers either consisted of him fanboying over getting to work with A-listers like Captain America or berating himself over not measuring up to his childhood idols. Hindsight Lad managed to track down the Warriors' secret HQ and blackmailed his way onto the team with his knowledge of several of their secret identities. He later earned a legitimate place on the team with his fact-finding skills. Much later, he betrayed the surviving Warriors by secretly leaking several of their identities to an already enraged public, out of a sense of betrayal. This led to one former Warrior being beaten and hospitalized by an angry mob. (Why he felt betrayed or why he'd take such a drastic step to "get even" is never explained adequately. Or explained at all, for that matter.)

So when Coach Roberts comes to Precinct 13579 as a client and she lays eyes on him for the first time, she's understandably ecstatic and throws any semblance of her usual serious and stern demeanor out the window. From there, it's a snowball effect — the rest of the players of the Bears basketball team are brought to the precinct where Olive gets to meet them and get their autographs, she and Otto are given two tickets to tomorrow's game as a thank-you for helping the team, and to top it all off, she gets to play in the game itself as one of the players, using her hand-stitched #99 jersey to cure the Bears of their bad luck and lead the team to a win against the Rambunctious Rams — their first win in a while. The episode "Disorder in the Court" would later have her become the personal student of Coach Roberts, who gives her javelin lessons. On a similar note, Otto is a huge fan of Soundcheck, a boy band akin to the likes of One Direction who sing Silly Love Songs chock-full of Word Salad Lyrics. He manages to become an ascended fanboy twice — once in "Soundcheck", where he took the place of Danny T. and recorded a music video for "Gonna Add One", and another in "Soundcheck Part Deux", where he gets to perform with all four band members at a concert, along with Olive (who, herself, isn't a fangirl, but employs the "if you can't beat 'em, join 'em" philosophy and takes part in the concert anyway). Jeremy, a client whom the Odd Squad Mobile Unit helps in the aptly-named episode "Jeremy", is a big fan of them and wishes to join them. After helping to stop Monsieur Papier-Mache, he gets his wish when Opal decides to recommend him to the Odd Squad Academy. Deconstructed in "Monumental Oddness". Omar's love and passion for traveling the world and collecting souvenirs causes him to earn a spot in the travel magazine The Shmumbertimes giving a top-25 list of his favorite monuments, which, in turn, leads him to be invited to speak at the 19th Annual Snowglobe Convention. However, it isn't just the heroes and innocent citizens who know about his fame — villains do too, as evidenced by Stu Venir, a villain who uses Omar's list to wreak havoc around the world and steal monuments by turning them into keychains.

Ascended Fanboy / int_9e2f90f4	comment	One Piece: Luffy's entire backstory is essentially him fanboying over Shanks, then deciding he's going to be even better than him and putting that into action. He is more likely to find his opponents' destructive powers of doom SOOOO COOL than to find them terrifying. In particular, he seems to like mechas and giant robots (a trait even his shadow-zombie Oars shared). In an ultimate ascended fanboy moment, Mr. 3 made him a wax battle suit so he could hit his poisonous opponent without ending up like he had when he'd tried punching the guy with bare fists. He practically cries from happiness at the opportunity. Masira and Shojo are huge fans of the story Noland the Liar, a fable where an explorer was convicted of lying about finding a city of gold. When they heard that Noland's descendant Montblanc Cricket was searching for proof the city of gold existed, they immediately appointed themselves Cricket's helpers, using their own pirate crews to search the ocean, because Noland claimed the city probably sunk under the sea. After Luffy proves that the city of gold ended up in the sky, they all decide to search for another myth. Arc Villain Hody Jones was a huge fan of the Big Bad of Cocoyasi Village Arc, Arlong, and the Sun Pirates when he was younger. In a Real Life example, The Rootless, the band who created One Day, the 13th opening, wanted to do an opening for One Piece since they started. Bartolomeo is not only a sociopathic asshole who may be worse than Eustass Kid but also a massive fanboy of Luffy ever since Loguetown, having followed Luffy's journey from then on to Marineford before finally setting sail himself and quickly as assigned his own bounty of 150 million Berries. And now he's one of the captains in the "Straw Hat Grand Fleet", a group of pirate captains who after teaming up with the Straw Hats against a common enemy decided they were becoming Luffy's followers whether he agrees to it or not, and his bounty went up to 200 million.

Ascended Fanboy / int_a796bde8	comment	Metal Gear Solid: Subverted with Otacon, a lonely Otaku who is determined to become one of these by building himself a real-life Humongous Mecha like in the anime he loved — of course, it turns out that the mecha is going to be a new type of nuclear weapons platform and he'd let his desire to live in fiction overshadow his logic. And then it's Double Subverted when Otacon ends up becoming the sidekick of an action hero-esque soldier and ends up living the otaku fantasy after all. Otacon's the most obvious, but this actually applies to most of the cast. Ocelot is a Spaghetti Western Otaku who was modelled after Lee Van Cleef, can do ridiculous gunplay tricks with his revolver and pull off complicated Man With No Name-style backstabbing Batman Gambit, and wears spurs all the time. Major Zero is a James Bond fanboy who is also a British spy going by an initial codename ("O") and ends up masterminding a Cold War assassination gambit to kill another superspy. Snake makes various references to movies throughout the games, even giving his name as Iroquois (meaning "rattlesnake") Pliskin at one point, and he's based heavily on Eighties Action Hero characters. The cutest example is probably Little John, a little boy who loves ninja manga and sci-fi about robots, and discovers at the end of Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots that his dad is a robot ninja. Score. Raiden is a complicated example that plays the trope dead straight and deconstructs it from every possible angle. As seen in codec with Kevin in Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance, he recounts his history with Snake to his friends in Maverick, calling Snake as the hero of Outer Heaven uprising, Zanzibar Land disturbance, Shadow Moses incident, Big Shell incident, and his contribution in stopping Liquid Ocelot's insurrection. He also mentions that he was the best combat soldier Raiden had ever seen. Ends up getting teased as a Snake fanboy, though mostly out of disappointment no one else working at Maverick got to meet him. Raiden's history doing VR training is analogised to being a video gamer; he is placed into a recreation of the first game, in an attempt to turn him into a main character of a video game with no real qualities other than hyper-competent obedience. The only reason he gets out of the simulation with any part of himself alive is his love of Solid Snake, the kind of love a video gamer has for their favourite character in the story of a game. And he gets to go Back-to-Back Badasses with him and eventually become one of the few people Snake considers a true friend! This is invoked in Revengeance, where it's specified that as part of dealing with what happened to his body and identity after 4, Raiden got really into samurai movies and started looking to samurai philosophy to express his feelings about his life. Raiden's movie fanboyism, however, started out far darker. As a child soldier, he was forced to watch 1980s action movies ("the kind with macho guys and big guns") with the goal of making him want to be just like those characters. Presumably, at some point in his life, it was working.

According to the Ultimania guide, as a child Seifer Almasy from Final Fantasy VIII saw a movie about a knight protecting a sorceress, which inspired both his "romantic dream" of becoming a sorceress's knight and his decision to train with the gunblade. The hero of the movie was played by Laguna Loire, the father of Seifer's rival Squall Leonhart. Prince Noctis of Final Fantasy XV is a fan of the Assassin's Creed series, which in Eos is based off of a figure of myth from Lestallum. In the Assassin's Festival DLC event, when the Niflheim Empire attacks Lestallum looking for him during the festivities, he ends up defeating the Niffs with a Lucian twist on Assassin warfare.

The cutest example is probably Little John, a little boy who loves ninja manga and sci-fi about robots, and discovers at the end of Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots that his dad is a robot ninja. Score.

When a wormhole sends him back in time to that very same Sengoku period, he can barely restrain himself from BSODing with fanboy glee whenever he crosses paths with one of these warlords in spite of him working on the opposite side of most of them. One hilarious scene in his route has him rope the female main character into chasing Ieyasu through town just to get his autograph (all while Ieyasu has no clue why some weird guy wants him to write his name down on a piece of paper).

The Tigger Movie promoted Roo to Supporting Protagonist, with a large portion of the film focused on his Big Brother Worship of Tigger.

Australia has been dedicated fans of the contest since 1983, so in 2015, as part of the contest's 60th anniversary, Australia was given a slot in the final and came in 5th place with Guy Sebastian. Because of the good result, they were brought back to compete for real in the semifinals for the 2016 contest, with Dami Im who took Australia all the way to second place.

Meer Campbell was a NaÃ¯ve Everygirl who fangirled the Idol Singer Lacus Clyne and had a similar singing voice, so she often sang her songs. She was later scouted by Durandal's people, who offered her the chance to become Lacus's Body Double after she goes into retirement; Meer immediately accepted, thinking she could finally do something for the people who need Lacus's support... but as the series progressed, Meer developed serious mental and emotional issues, which later brought her her downfall.

In his soon-to-be apocalyptic future, while researching any method possible to save humanity from the Meklord Emperor Genocide, Z-ONE discovers that the Meklord Emperors are responding to the peoples' greed and decides to create a headset device that will enable him to impersonate Yusei's identity and personality to guide the people away from their selfish desires. This initially works, but he doesn't have enough time to reach out to everybody on the planet and Ener-D starts spinning in reverse, resulting in the ruin of humanity which leaves him, Aporia, Antinomy and Paradox as the Last of Their Kind. He loses all hope in trying to change peoples' ways and resorts to attempting to travel back to the past and destroy Neo Domino City where Ener-D was discovered before the Genocide can occur, thus becoming Yusei's archenemy.

Ascended Fanboy / int_db30cf92	comment	Deconstructed in the Warrior Cats spinoff storyline SkyClan and the Stranger. Sol's mother always got him and his siblings to behave by telling them stories of the Sky Warriors, which were the SkyClan cats from the days before the Clan was destroyed. Sol always loved the stories of the Sky Warriors. When his mom left him at the home of a crazy cat lady, he wished that he could become a Sky Warrior, because he thought that if he did, she would come back. After he grew up, he learned that SkyClan had been rebuilt, and wanted nothing more than to become one of its members. Leafstar, SkyClan's leader, let him join, but no matter how much he tried he didn't have what it took. She promised that she would let him become a warrior after he had proved himself, but Sol, fueled by his dreams from kithood, was impatient. To try to become a SkyClan warrior faster, he kidnapped Leafstar's kits, planning to "find" them after she realized they were missing and become a warrior because of it. Leafstar caught him, however, and exiled him, realizing that he had none of the qualities of a true warrior. Because of this, Sol turned against the Clans, and vowed to destroy their Code of Honor to prove that it was worthless.

Ascended Fanboy / int_db418e95	comment	Barbara Gordon, the original Batgirl (Not counting Bette "Bat-Girl" Kane), was dressing up in a costume for a Halloween party when she stumbled into crimefighting. Prior to this, she was either disinterested in costumed adventuring or was planning to emulate different superheroes (different continuities as Batgirl: Year One give different backstories, but most at least agree that, whatever her specific plans were, they did not involve bats). That first encounter earned her the label "Batgirl" and she was automatically associated with Batman in the public consciousness. Only her subsequent refusal to stop got Batman involved in training and working with her.

It was written by son of a Free Council mage who saw the Diamond orders as repressive, and the whole series is essentially a critique of their worldviews. The books and their fans are depicted in a fairly positive light; Mages who Awaken by reading the books tend to have idealistic, anti-authoritarian streaks that drive them to do great things.

Mark Walton, a storyboard artist, laid down a temporary "scratch voice" for the character of Rhino, with the assumption that a professional voice actor would later take the role. As the film moved further along, big-name actors were cast like John Travolta, Malcolm McDowell, and Miley Cyrus. But they couldn't find a professional actor who made a better Rhino than Walton; in the end, Disney ended up calling him back to record the lines professionally, resulting in one of the funniest breakout Disney characters of the decade.
