Invincible Hero	comment	Heroes win. It's a general rule of fiction. Sometimes, though, you want the hero to lose a few battles; this is a good way of establishing conflict and drama. A hero may well consistently lose but learn valuable lessons out of it, get Character Development, and grow strong enough to win for the series finale, and then there are heroes who never lose. Ever. Not only that, but they win handily, especially in life-threatening situations. If any "losses" occur, they're typically ambiguous and open-ended, brought about by clear cheating on the villain's part, or as a forfeit from the hero due to external causes (kidnapped Love Interest, etc.). This of course tends to rob a given episode or movie franchise of dramatic punch when the viewer's reaction to a hero being lowered into a mortal Death Trap is "Like You Would Really Do It!" This type of hero is basically a walking personification of Victory Is Boring. Behind this is usually the idea that the hero is "just that good". Plus, he's the hero and, usually, also the protagonist; good guys never lose! Doesn't matter how hard the Determinator trains, the hero is always two steps ahead. This is especially common in episodic series where the Monster of the Week is a regular occurrence, or in fighting series (whether kung fu, Mons or card games) where the protagonist is on a quest To Be a Master. If taken to extremes, this trope turns into God-Mode Sue. This is practically required if the hero is in some sort of Tournament Arc or else in a situation where any loss would be disastrous (such as if all fights are to the death), as you can't afford to lose even once. Having the character routinely come close to losing, requiring assistance from outside forces, or having the tournament structured so characters can take a loss can help mitigate this. Even if the hero does not come close to losing, the author can still make the character interesting by making the audience guess how the character will win. This generally works best in lighthearted stories. That being said, Kryptonite Factor and Good Flaws, Bad Flaws are the main ways to make an Invincible Hero more vincible.note That is actually a word, meaning "capable of being overcome" Compare with Immortal Hero, where the heroes can and often do lose, but hardly ever die; the less suspenseful Showy Invincible Hero, which would be this except that it focuses on the Rule of Cool; the Comically Invincible Hero or The Ace, which follows Rule of Funny; and Invincible Incompetent, where the hero is still usually untouchable, but more due to dumb luck and Laser-Guided Karma than any real competence of their own. Contrast Invincible Villain, their Evil Counterpart; and Failure Hero, who never wins at anything. Not to be confused with Saved by Canon or Foregone Conclusion. Sub-Trope of The Good Guys Always Win.

The previous Unlosing Ranger got hit by a car on the way to a fight and ended up passing the costume on to the protagonist, who proceeds to constantly lose every fight against the villain, regardless of how hard he trains. Then he faces his past and becomes a true hero, winning the fight.

The better episodes have there be some tension in the villainous plots; the weaker episodes, well, it turns out those bullets are bouncing off Superman. Again.

It's Zig-Zagged, though, since any loss with a Numbers user would result in Astral dying and Yuma losing his Numbers, which nearly happened after his first duel against Kaito, he never loses to Numbers users or anyone hunting them, who happen to make up the vast majority of opponents. That said, Astral often needs to give him instructions on what moves to make. As the series progresses, Yuma improves significantly and so, by the time of ZEXAL II, this trope is played straight.

However, in the actual storylines, the main character usually has his ass completely handed to him by a character a thousand levels higher at least once. In Disgaea 3: Absence of Justice, Mao wants to defeat the overlord. He's been studying tropes, so he figures his best bet is to become a hero since heroes never lose. Super Hero Aurum from the same game used to be one of these, but then he went crazy.

Invincible Hero / int_1b2c8040	comment	In Corpies, Titan is rightly called the strongest man in the world by his merchandise. However, when Hexcellent asks about it, he points out that he is the physically strongest man but by far not the most powerful Super in the world. However, he does have decades of experience as a Hero fighting criminal Supers, not to mention the HCP Training from Hell that every Hero must go through to be licensed. He's got plenty of tricks up his sleeve for when fists aren't enough. During a fair, his team participates in a tug-of-war contest with others. However, Titan realized very quickly that the crowd almost never cheers for them because everyone knows that he'll inevitably win without even trying. So he tells his teammates that he's not going to participate anymore. They argue that they'll lose. He says that they might, but they'll win the support of the crowd for doing their damned best. Indeed, that is what ends up happening. Their boss Mr. Greene is annoyed at the loss but is happy about the PR. Fortunately for the readers, the main challenge of the story is such that even Titan is tested, providing for plenty of excitement.

Although he has to die in order to be the Doomed Moral Victor (and because the actual Roland died in that battle), most of his wounds are somewhat self-inflicted things, like when his temples explode because he's blowing so damn hard on that horn in order to warn Charlemagne's army. Also he keeps fighting even when his brains are running out his ears and onto his army.

Invincible Hero / int_1bdeb9de	comment	This trope is often held to be one of the reasons X-Man got cancelled. Nate Grey, the title character, was powerful to begin with (which is unsurprising considering his background) but frequently lost fights due to his inexperience and the genetic flaw which made sure that his powers were killing him, leading to frequent instances of Psychic Nosebleed and one of his powers switching off. Even so, he was powerful enough to beat AOA!Apocalypse to a pulp after taking on Holocaust and unconsciously resurrected someone (though it is dubious as to how alive Maddie actually was). Most of the tension came through his Character Development away from being a Living Weapon while trying to figure out his place in this new world and fix his powers. By the end, he'd got his powers fixed and was leaps and bounds ahead of every other telepath and telekinetic in the Marvel Universe, with only planetary or universal scale threats being capable of giving him pause, and treated the multiverse as his personal stepladder. He was killed off in the final issue (sort of), and when he came back some years later, as comic characters are wont to do, after several rounds with the Dark X-Men and Dark Avengers, the writers made note to depower him down to a very limited form of telekinesis and an even more limited form of telepathy.

Invincible Hero / int_1beda93b	comment	In the dozen-plus years Sluggy Freelance has been around, there have only been a handful of characters who aren't horribly outclassed when facing Bun-Bun, and only three who have ever actually beaten him in one-on-one combat: Aylee's evil clone, Blacksoul (who is actually Bun-Bun from the future), and Oasis (who had to suddenly unveil pyrokinetic abilities to pull that off). Bun-Bun only barely qualifies as a hero. An alternative view is that Bun-Bun works as a way to establish an enemy as 'top tier', and the rarity of beating him is so it keeps its credibility and doesn't suffer from The Worf Effect.

One of the main characters, Kazami, is a big fan of Captain Zeon, a Diver who has a video series where he battles other Divers who are terrible spoilsports in the MMORPG game Gunpla Battle Nexus Online. However, Kazami, who aspires to be someone like Captain Zeon, refuses to watch videos where he loses because he believes that Captain Zeon should never lose and that bleeds into his terrible playstyle. His former teammate Gojo tries to get Kazami to understand that Zeon's coolness isn't in that he loses from time to time, but he refuses to give up even when things look bad.

Invincible Hero / int_1f72b18d	comment	In Tom and Jerry, Tom occasionally got a victory over Jerry (especially in later shorts), often when the mouse started their Escalating War without provocation. Add to that as often as Jerry won, he was still vulnerable to Amusing Injuries, albeit not nearly as often as Tom. Jerry's Invincible Hero status is partially owed to Parody Displacement. There are a deceptively large amount of shorts where Jerry wasn't the clear victor (either due to Tom getting the last laugh, or the two falling into a stalemate where neither was better off). Even in the instances Jerry was victorious, the times he won handily were uncommon, with him often shown struggling against Tom, or taking nearly as much slapstick pain and humiliation as he did.

There are eleven characters like this... and all of them work directly for the author. She admits to designing them with God Mode Sues in mind. They are meant to be the most powerful beings possible so that they can "set the story up" for her to write it. Surprisingly, the characters are still fairly popular when they aren't the Spotlight-Stealing Squad. Even then, the author takes into account complaints about them being shown too often and shunts them out of view in favor of canon for a few chapters.

Invincible Hero / int_22e533d6	comment	The Great British Bake Off: Brendan in series 3 made it to the final having been pretty much perfect in every week, only not being Star Baker every week due to moments of genius from the other contestants (James in particular). His safe but efficient style wasn't enough in the final, but his being there was almost guaranteed from the start. Arguably Ruth, the runner-up of series 1, who was so calm and composed, she would often finish ahead of time while everyone else was rushing to meet the deadline. And perhaps series 4 finalist Kimberley as well, who showed few weaknesses in the contest but ended up on the wrong side of a Technician Versus Performer battle with Frances. Series 6's Ian rarely messed up and managed to win Star Baker three times in a row. He ultimately didn't win in the final, however. Both series 8's Sophie and Steven fit this to different degrees; the latter won Star Baker three times (including the first two weeks) and only came close to elimination in the semi-final (leading many to claim he was a plant), whereas the former was always somewhere between the middle and top and never really lost her calm. It was obvious from the first two episodes that they'd be finalists, the only question being who'd join them.

Invincible Hero / int_243f5fd3	comment	Sonic The Hedgehog has been accused of becoming one in later installments of the franchise. No matter how daunting a task may be, he usually ends up solving it with little to no issue and at worst will just get beaten down by the villains for a while before recovering and coming out on top regardless. This is most evident in Sonic Forces where, despite being locked up and torturednote The torture line was added in the English script, which is why he doesn't show any signs of it. for six months and Eggman taking over most of the world, Sonic shows no signs of being worse for wear from it and ends up turning the whole situation around in the span of a few hours. The Archie Comic made it the most apparent after its short-lived Continuity Reboot, where one of the mandates SEGA inforced on it was that Sonic could only ever face a temporary setback that must be undone in the span of that issue.

Hiro could stop time, teleport, and travel through time, making him nearly impossible to defeat in battle. However, the problem with these heroes was that they were given too many opportunities to solve all the problems of the plot too quickly. This meant that they had to clutch an Idiot Ball in order to keep the plot moving, leading to many Kill Him Already! moments among fans. Even the writers realized this and had both characters significantly weakened for a time.

Invincible Hero / int_2bbcacd9	comment	Most Looney Tunes protagonists lean into this trope. Bugs Bunny has spent the whole of his career as a Karmic Trickster effortlessly outwitting and humiliating B-listers and icons alike in the Looney Tunes/Merrie Melodies pantheon, such as Beaky Buzzard and Daffy Duck respectively. So untouchable is Bugs, that of the many adversaries he faced over the roughly 172 cartoons he originally starred in, the number of characters able to best the trickster rabbit can be counted on one hand. Some villains, such as Yosemite Sam and Marvin the Martian, were created to give Bugs a more formidable and less sympathetic opponent. Speedy Gonzales's Super-Speed made him near untouchable by antagonists such as Sylvester (the odd occasion the cat actually placed the mouse in his mouth he often merely charged with enough power to rip (harmlessly) through his tail, suggesting it was actually physically impossible for Sylvester to eat Speedy).

He has no choice but to watch everyone around him die, and even when he tries to let someone else win in a fight, it never works out because his berserker mode tends to trigger against his will, leaving an increasing body count on his hands.

Invincible Hero / int_2f1032e5	comment	Mobile Suit Gundam: Iron-Blooded Orphans: Mikazuki Augus is virtually unstoppable, using one of the most powerful mobile suits in existence and benefiting from not just one, but three Alaya-Vijnana implants, which let him pilot it with preternatural skill. He's a ruthless Combat Pragmatist who has never been defeated in combat and very rarely even finds himself on the defensive. In fact, he's a Deconstruction, as he outsources his moral thinking to Orga and takes desperate measures to win even if it costs him the movement of his limbs. At the same time, some of his enemies have sympathetic backstories and/or are genuinely good people, but are killed off unceremoniously all the same, which might make the audience uneasy about rooting for Mikazuki when he kills them. However, this comes around in the finale, where Mikazuki becomes one of the few Gundam protagonists to die at the end of the show. Forced into a defensive battle against insanely overwhelming odds, he and his fellow pilots sacrifice their lives to buy time for their allies to escape their base via a hidden tunnel. Mika in particular gets his Gundam ripped to pieces by an Orbital Bombardment but fights on until the blood loss catches up with him, resulting in the Humongous Mecha equivalent of Died Standing Up.

The only reason an opponent ever gets in a hit that actually leaves a mark is so he can get patched up by his Sassy Black Woman landlady and give her a Tai Chi lesson. It doesn't matter how many opponents he has, or what weapons they have, he pwns them. At least the other examples lose a fight or at least look like they might at times. Not Bone.

It's played very straight with Tatsuhisa "Luke" Kamijo, who snuck into adult Duel centers about a year before the series and got good simply from training against strong opponents, and has yet to lose a Duel since. This gets subtly deconstructed after he becomes King of Duels at the end of the first season, as despite being made aware much earlier that he'd suffer And Then What?, he's still unprepared for having nowhere to aspire further, and he's later recruited by Arc Villain Yuo Goha to turn this trope against the heroes. While he's somewhat talented in other areas though, Luke is a textbook case of Idiot Hero and very prone to cowering in fear if something gets to him, generally his sister Tiger.

Invincible Hero / int_366a284d	comment	Kenshiro in Fist of the North Star is nearly unstoppable. There are very few opponents that ever won a fight against him, or demonstrated superior skill, and he defeats all of them on second attempts, in one case without even having time to recover from the initial mauling. This trope is very prominent in the anime version, as it adds lots and lots of filler Curb Stomp Battles against Punks of the Week, but much less so in the manga. When Kenshiro loses, he loses badly. Both Souther and Kaioh really did a number on him, his first battle with Raoh was a close call, and his loss to Shin is the moment that sets the entire series in motion. A good way of characterizing Kenshiro is that since he never technically gets stronger over the course of the series if he can't beat an opponent it doesn't mean his fists won't work, it just means he's punching them in the wrong way (Souther was a big example of this).

The Gryffindor team is the "good" team which never loses so long as Harry is playing — the only losses he experiences are ones where he's knocked out or isn't playing at all, because Harry's quidditch skill is so good that no one else can ever rightfully win against him. It's also played straight in that the Slytherins, in Harry's view at least (and most other characters as well, it seems, like Luna, Lee, etc.) seem to cheat gratuitously in every match against Gryffindor, because there is no possible way that any team (including Slytherin) could win against Harry's Gryffindor if they played fairly. While this trope doesn't extend to the rest of the Harry Potter series, this is one example where it seems to hold true every time.

Invincible Hero / int_3f3abe9	comment	Rick from Rick and Morty. For a certain definition of "hero". Even given the Sadist Show nature of the series, Rick is notable for his impressive win record against villains. He has gone up against galactic governments, alien scientists, impossibly vast and powerful extradimensional beings, and even the Devil himself, and he has outsmarted and defeated all of them. Even alternative versions of himself have been made fools of. Only a single episode so far has ended with Rick not coming out on top. It's not the Season 2 finale which sees him being arrested by the galactic government; he allowed himself to be captured so he could bring it down from the inside. And he does. He has, however, been bested by Evil Morty. He only escapes death because Morty saves him at the last second. The Season 3 finale is also another rare failure for Rick, as all has plans have fallen apart and Jerry is back with Beth, and the family are stronger than ever. Season 4 finale also is a moment of failure for Rick, as both Space Beth and Normal Beth have rejected Rick alongside Morty and Summer, and that episode ends with Rick lamenting upon his mistakes. And these are just the example we've seen! Morty's Mind Blowers shows at least one minor example Rick cared enough to wipe from Morty, who knows what other petty losses he has had. In "Vindicators 3 The Return Of World Ender", Rick brutally kills the World Ender offscreen. In a matter of hours. While being so drunk that he doesn't even remember doing it the morning after.

She lost to him over 100 million times, which is likely what set the concept of a "Main Character", an existence whose victory was already decided, in her mind. However, when Iihiko was preserved beyond his human life-span by his characteristics and memories being passed along through generations of Double host-bodies, he lost the world he'd saved and the women he'd loved, twisting over the years into merely a destroyer whose sole purpose in life was to keep living.

Invincible Hero / int_468bebb0	comment	Discworld: The City Watch becomes so large, powerful and influential - many of its personnel are serious badasses in their own right - that very few plausible threats are much of a threat to it anymore. Noticeably since Jingo most storylines have involved either actual wars or separating Sam Vimes and the other main characters from their vast resources via distance (Snuff) or time (Night Watch) with the bulk of the Watch functioning as The Cavalry. The author himself noted this problem = any story set in Ankh-Morpork later in the series would by default rapidly become a "Watch" book if he wasn't careful and deliberately created the Moist von Lipwig character as a way of setting stories in the city with a protagonist who wanted nothing to do with the Watch. In Snuff, Sam Vimes himself has become this, in the eyes of many long-time Discworld fans. In the course of the book, he is never once seriously tested or takes a wrong turn, he has all life's problems sorted out. In the Discworld series as a whole, Vetinari's plans never fail. Never. If Vetinari is involved with the main character of the book in some way, their schemes will turn out successful (even if not in the way the main character expects).

The machine itself is ridiculously fast and can teleport, plus it's armored enough that it can shrug off nuclear weapons without even being at half power. And the few times it's seriously damaged in the manga, it just teleports in replacement parts from a parallel dimension. It doesn't help that the pilot has an Omniscient Morality License and never gets any real comeuppance for all the crap he pulls. In fact, the only thing stopping the Zeorymer from owning everything within a 100-mile-radius in two seconds is its pilot being a total wuss until his evil side takes over. So how powerful exactly 'is' this monstrosity? Powerful enough to allow it to single-handedly beat the Super Robot Wars games it appears in ALONE. Want to see something even MORE insane? In Super Robot Wars Judgment, Zeorymer can be UPGRADED into the Great Zeorymer. Feel free to let out an Evil Laugh as you see the enemy throw everything but the kitchen sink at it and die as the Great Zeorymer retaliates with all the Hakkeshu attacks.

Recca never loses a fight past a certain (fairly early) point in the series, but then again his powers come from a deal he made with the dragons inside him so if he ever loses anything he'll die. His teammates lose all the time though, especially since much of the series is a team-based tournament where they just barely win enough matches to move on every single time. Similarly, in MÄR (done by the same author) Ginta never loses in the tournament, since if he loses, it's game over. His teammates, on the other hand, can and have lost. Some of the rounds come down to a 3-2 win/loss ratio (with Ginta being last fighter to boot). The witch Dorothy plays this trope straight, however, as she also remains undefeated throughout the tournament. Even though she gets beaten down badly several times, she is able to pull through with sometimes seemingly impossible feats. She does die in the anime, but eventually revives along everyone else for the final battle.

Invincible Hero / int_526d4c5c	comment	This is subverted in Knights of the Old Republic. If you talk to Jolee Bindo, he will tell you about his friend with great Destiny, Andor Vex. He was monumentally strong in the Force and was prophesied to have a great destiny, which would change the face of the galaxy for centuries. He was captured by a marauding Warlord, and when approached, decided to rely on his reputation and perceived importance to history. This pissed off the warlord, who threw him down a reactor core ventilation shaft. His body hit something sensitive, causing the ship to be destroyed, along with the warlord, freeing the sector from his iron grip. So... yeah, destiny! To make it even better, Jolee Bindo does not relate the story as a piece of somber wisdom but as a hilarious anecdote, laughing the entire time he's telling it. He already knows what the PC's "great destiny" that everyone keeps alluding to is as well, he just likes openly messing with people.

Invincible Hero / int_55c20cb5	comment	Ainz in Overlord (2012) is a level 100 MMORPG player character who, along with his similarly leveled NPC minions and guild HQ that was considered one of the hardest dungeons in the game it came from, are all Trapped in Another World. Unfortunately (or fortunately, depending on the circumstances), even the most legendary of creatures considered leagues above anything any mortal man could hope to challenge are mid-tier at best when compared what was in the MMORPG. It's increasingly shown that the only thing that could actually give Ainz and his henchmen a run for their money is another level 100 player character (none of which have yet appeared in present time,) or one of his direct underlings going rogue which eventually happens when Shalltear is mind-controlled by a World-class item. To get around the protagonist and his party being so overpowered, the plot focuses mostly on Ainz exploring the New World, his political maneuvering among the various nations (both as Overlord Ainz and his adventurer persona Momon that he uses to infiltrate the Adventurer's Guild,) and the far less invincible natives he affects.

And although in the future it gets an explanation, since Miyuki is the perfect Designer Baby, Tatsuya's abilities are still so abnormally powerful that he can instantly calculate the sequence of any spell or even blow up a planet. The reason for this lies in the fact that the author, by his own admission, prefers long dialogues and intrigues, and not battles, so in the original web-novel, most of the battles were even almost instantaneous.

Surprisingly however, this trope is averted, despite Captain Marvel being immune to bullets, blades, and other common types of attacks. Throughout the serial, sufficiently advanced technology is shown to be able to harm him enough to knock him out, and he's placed in situations where it's stated that even his invulnerability might not be enough to protect him, such as a death trap involving molten lava. The serial also came out when the character's comic series was fairly young, and he had yet to become quite as invincible as he would be eventually.

While still a very popular and interesting character, his ability kills any dramatic tension. Doesn't mean Wolverine always wins, though. And you always know he isn't going to win against Magneto, who nearly killed him at least once. Used tragically in Jason Aaron's run, where the Big Bad's plan actually depended on Logan being invincible, and since Logan is, of course, invincible, he's entirely successful.

In almost all his fights, he dances around his enemies without the slightest effort; even if it looks like his enemy's actually strong enough to beat him, it turns out he isn't fighting all-out and a single word of encouragement completely turns the battle around. His insane power and endurance is a source of humor in-universe; at one point the headmistress of the school where he's working warns the many people who want to use him that they need to take care not to exhaust him, while behind her he's jogging along with all kinds of massive, heavy material. When she turns around to see him carrying a log roughly five feet in diameter and maybe fifty feet long as if it was a twig, she quietly says "looks like he'll be fine".

Most of her battles seem to have her on the ropes, ending up rescued by someone else before she turns the tables on her opponents. Sonichu himself would most often defeat all of his opponents, sometimes with lethal force, without breaking a sweat. It comes from a combination of the author's belief that her characters are real, not wanting to make her characters work hard to achieve their goals, and most of the Sonichu stories being her way of venting her frustration at some obstacle in her life. This is actually a rather bizarre case of an Enforced Trope- the author believes that all her characters are real in some degree that letting them be defeated would be tantamount to hurting a sentient being.

Then came Thor: Ragnarok and Avengers: Infinity War, which saw his power increase further, to the point that he's able to match Thanos with a complete Infinity Gauntlet, and only fails at killing Thanos by succumbing to Revenge Before Reason. He's now one of the most powerful beings in the universe and the strongest of the heroes by several orders of magnitude. Failing when everything was in his hands wrecks him emotionally and he spends most of Avengers: Endgame a drunken slob who can barely get out of the house. In the climax he probably has the worst showing against the returning Thanos. Captain Marvel, much like her comic-book counterpart, is immensely powerful, and the only reason she doesn't curbstomp her opponents in her solo movie is that she's carrying a power limiter. Once that is removed there ceases to be any meaningful threat to her, to the point where in Avengers: Endgame she goes toe to toe with a younger inexperienced Thanos wielding the Infinity Gauntlet and is only defeated through a Power Stone sucker punch.

Invincible Hero / int_7c038c18	comment	Phineas and Ferb: Captain Implausible is a superhero on a show within the show. The whole premise of his show is he's impossible to beat. That about sums up Phineas and Ferb's whole situation. When you have to build your own super-intelligent A.I. and program it to trap you repeatedly in order to have a little fun, and then you defeat it effortlessly, it's difficult to ever feel afraid for you. The only times Phineas and Ferb can't do something is usually when they simply decide that they can't. Accordingly, if there's any tension in Phineas and Ferb, it's usually emotional tension, such as Phineas being angry at Perry in The Movie. Eventually Lampshaded in Milo Murphy's Law where it is revealed that they have a reality-bending superpower that makes sure their plans always work as long as they are both working on it.

An example of Tropes Are Not Bad: Morris and René Goscinny used this to their advantage by making the villains (especially the Dalton Cousins) the driving force of many stories. The fun is not watching how Luke will win, but how the villains will lose (and, in the Daltons' case, how will Averell and Joe's interactions ultimately doom Joe's plans).

Invincible Hero / int_8125b468	comment	Much like Superman, Batman is memetically thought of as this. While he suffers several personal losses, in the public's eyes he rarely loses battles. What? He's Crazy-Prepared and a master of the Batman Gambit! Batman is only invincible half the time. His Crazy-Prepared skills obviously only work in situations he's planned for, so if he meets a new rogue or an old one with a new trick, he will typically lose the initial encounter: the villain will get away scot-free and Batman will get his ass soundly beaten. After escaping and researching the new foe, however, he will always win round two. In fact, the bit about him planning perfectly for every situation is mostly Memetic Mutation - most of his victories in the comics come from going into situations technically outmatched but having enough general knowledge to make up a plan on the spot, and getting general knowledge about the situation often involves not making any headway or being straight up defeated until he finds what he needs to know. Batman is invincible, but not always victorious. War Games, Under the Red Hood, Death in the Family are costly losses, The Pearl was a costly win, the Killing Joke is a Pyrrhic unresolved. Batman exemplifies this trope in Justice League of America. He has to since he wouldn't survive his first mistake against a JLA-class menace. Somewhat averted in Batman: The Dark Knight Returns. The first time Batman fights the leader of the mutants, he gets whomped by the guy. As the series progresses, he gets more and more injured. By the end, he even dies... temporarily. The Dark Knight Strikes Again, on the other hand, plays this trope obnoxiously straight. Batman is always right, always in control, and effortlessly defeats everyone he fights, while lecturing them on how lame they are. He lost pretty often in the old days. In fact, almost every episode of the 1960s Batman (1966) show had a cliffhanger in the middle where Batman was captured and had to escape a villain's deathtrap.

The eponymous "hero" made himself completely indestructible (Fables gain power based on popularity, and having created three mega-successful blockbusters about his own adventures, he's the most famous and beloved fairy tale character in history), but is virtually a Butt-Monkey in terms of how often he suffers humiliating and/or excruciatingly painful injuries (though his personality means you never have any sympathy for him). His interactions with Gary the Pathetic Fallacy (who is the first of the Literals, the Anthropomorphic Personifications of meta-concepts of story-telling) lead to him being told that having made himself an Invincible Hero, the universe (driven partly by the Theory of Narrative Causality,) now has to provide a balance to it in the form of a never-ending series of fatal injuries and spectacularly bad luck to provide something for his powers to be tested against and prove themselves necessary.

Invincible Hero / int_81f5d35d	comment	While most Kamen Rider shows don't fall into this trope, there's a few where it happens either accidentally or deliberately: Souji Tendou, the titular Kamen Rider Kabuto. He effortlessly defeats every single challenge that comes his way, and any exceptions are either Played for Laughs (such as his obsession with winning a scratchcard game) or because he let the other person win. It got so bad that the show had to introduce an Evil Twin just to give him an adequate challenge, and with that it only took a few episodes for him to overcome it. Tendou's fully aware that he's this trope and quite smug about it. Kamen Rider Decade is basically the same as Kabuto, although slightly less smug about it. Decade's invincibility is deliberate, as his gimmick is being a Fixer Sue who travels between various stories based on the previous nine Riders, solves their problems, and leaves while having no story of his own to belong to. One movie explains his power level by claiming he's a new incarnation of the franchise as a whole's Big Bad. Kamen Rider Wizard never once fails to stop a Phantom from driving the victim of the week to despair. The few times he almost does, the victim overcomes their trauma on their own and becomes another wizard. His only significant failures aside from Phoenix and Legion defeating him in battle, both of which are justifications for new powerups, come during the last act and are self-inflicted by a string of What the Hell, Hero? moments. Kamen Rider Ex-Aid plays with the trope by having the Lensman Arms Race culminate in Ex-Aid becoming literally invincible by gaining a form based on the Super Star. Despite now being physically invincible, however, Emu continues to suffer setbacks and delays for about a dozen more episodes because his opponent knows better than to challenge him to a fight, instead employing a long string of increasingly dirty tricks to fend off the heroes.

Invincible Hero / int_869fa138	comment	This is actually addressed in-story in Bamboo Blade. Tamaki Kawazoe, or Tama-chan, is a kendo prodigy capable of defeating adults. One character in the series remarks that he thinks Tama should lose a bout, and not to an adult but to a girl her own age. He feels losing to an equal can teach things that no victory can. Ishida-sensei starts trying to get the team into tougher and tougher bouts in part to give Tama a chance to face others of her own level. Once she does lose to a superior opponent, she does not know how to handle it at all, having never lost before. Unfortunately, the anime at least ends before it properly tackles the consequences of this, but we're given a fair impression that it is an issue that will be dealt with. In the manga she handles it a lot better than she does in the anime, quickly getting over it instead of sulking and nearly quitting kendo. She even ends up losing a second match against basically one of the kendo elite, and then her final match with fated rival Ura Sakaki ends without revealing who won.

Invincible Hero / int_88aef33b	comment	Similarly, Kirkman's character "Invincible", from the same-titled comic, has a main character who's the most powerful person on Earth, because he's the son of that comic universe's answer to Superman (well, sorta). And indeed, he is pretty invincible… until his dad beats him nearly to death. While he remains impossible to hurt for most, there're plenty of critters out there more than powerful enough to kill him. Chief among these are the fifty-or-so supervillains that comprise the "viltrumite" species from which Invincible's dad hails, who are effectively-ageless flying bricks with physical powers that increase the longer they exist. The existence of such threats requires Invincible to lend significant focus to things other than straight-up fights, like the ethics of superheroism, the best ways for empowered individuals to improve their civilizations and the choice between preserving traditions that are killing his people and abandoning culture in order to survive (in Thragg's case).

Invincible Hero / int_8954c942	comment	Golgo 13 never fails an assignment, or for that matter misses a shot. If he did, he'd lose his reputation as an assassin and there would be no series. Later chapters solve the problem by focusing more on the people who hire him and how their situations deteriorate to the point that they need to bring in a hitman. (Infamously, he doesn't appear in one story at all; the central character merely uses Golgo 13's reputation as a weapon.) The fact that the stories are standalone and bounce around time help in this regard. For completeness' sake, there have been several occasions of him missing, at least once by weapons sabotage creating a misfire, and one complete miss caused by the target's allegedly psychic bodyguard.

Invincible Hero / int_8ac4e993	comment	Gundam: Mobile Suit Gundam: Char's Counterattack: Amuro Ray had some narrow scrapes earlier in his career, but by the time of this film he, and his Nu-Gundam, are essentially untouchable. He tears through most enemies as though they didn't exist, and even his archrival, Char Aznable, is only able to stand against him for a few minutes. One of the biggest problems many Gundam fans had with the ending of Mobile Suit Gundam SEED Destiny was that at the end the returning SEED cast had won the final fight without losing a single named character. The greatest loss that the Archangel team suffered was the Justice Gundam's flight pack, and they even went so far as to strike a victory pose at the end to show that they hadn't been scratched. Compare this to every final fight in other Gundam series, including the original Mobile Suit Gundam SEED, in which every character can die and the main character often only gains a narrow victory while his Gundam gets trashed in the process. It also didn't help that this clashed with the promotional art released in advance of the final arc, which showed the Strike Freedom and the Destiny Gundams locked in a bitter struggle, having been torn to shred and reduced to a single weapon each, trying to land a decisive blow on one another. Mobile Suit Gundam: Iron-Blooded Orphans: Mikazuki Augus is virtually unstoppable, using one of the most powerful mobile suits in existence and benefiting from not just one, but three Alaya-Vijnana implants, which let him pilot it with preternatural skill. He's a ruthless Combat Pragmatist who has never been defeated in combat and very rarely even finds himself on the defensive. In fact, he's a Deconstruction, as he outsources his moral thinking to Orga and takes desperate measures to win even if it costs him the movement of his limbs. At the same time, some of his enemies have sympathetic backstories and/or are genuinely good people, but are killed off unceremoniously all the same, which might make the audience uneasy about rooting for Mikazuki when he kills them. However, this comes around in the finale, where Mikazuki becomes one of the few Gundam protagonists to die at the end of the show. Forced into a defensive battle against insanely overwhelming odds, he and his fellow pilots sacrifice their lives to buy time for their allies to escape their base via a hidden tunnel. Mika in particular gets his Gundam ripped to pieces by an Orbital Bombardment but fights on until the blood loss catches up with him, resulting in the Humongous Mecha equivalent of Died Standing Up. Gundam Build Fighters and Gundam Build Fighters Try have this as a side-effect of having Tournament Arcs that run through most of the series. As a result, the heroes lose non-tournament battles early on and side battles where they sort out their issues. An aversion of this trope is used as a plot point in Gundam Build Divers Re:RISE. One of the main characters, Kazami, is a big fan of Captain Zeon, a Diver who has a video series where he battles other Divers who are terrible spoilsports in the MMORPG game Gunpla Battle Nexus Online. However, Kazami, who aspires to be someone like Captain Zeon, refuses to watch videos where he loses because he believes that Captain Zeon should never lose and that bleeds into his terrible playstyle. His former teammate Gojo tries to get Kazami to understand that Zeon's coolness isn't in that he loses from time to time, but he refuses to give up even when things look bad.

In the Black Rose arc, Utena's opponents are usually inexperienced and fighting their own issues more than Utena herself, and in the final arc it comes out that Utena wins because her bond with Anthy, the Rose Bride, is much stronger than the screwed-up bonds between her opponents and their "Brides".

Invincible Hero / int_9d34190a	comment	The Elder Scrolls: In the series' mythology, this is said to be a trait of Zenithar, the Aedric Divine God of Work and Commerce. His followers specifically call him "the god who will always win", and he stands to gain from any action. He is also described as a "warrior god", though "one who is restrained and reserved in times of peace". He also has traits of being a Reasonable Authority Figure and preaches the benefits of being an Honest Corporate Executive. The HoonDing is the Yokudan (Precursors of the Redguards) spirit of perseverance over infidels and the "Make Way" god. The HoonDing has historically manifested whenever it is needed to "make way" for the Yokudan/Redguard people. It usually manifests as a weapon that can destroy any enemy, but it can also manifest itself using mortal avatars. According to some interpretations, these avatars aren't necessarily the HoonDing itself, but the HoonDing taking over and/or working through the avatar. The key feature of the HoonDing is that no matter what, nothing will stop it from making way.

Invincible Hero / int_9e2f90f4	comment	One Piece: Luffy dodges this trope a few times: while he has only ever lost a handful of fights (and is usually unfazed by anything his enemies throw at him) there are a lot of times (such as against Rob Lucci or when breaking into Impel Down) where it is made clear that Luffy wins only by sheer mind-numbing determination (and spends a long while near comatose from his injuries). That's not even touching Marineford where Luffy's invincible status was deconstructed. His fight against Enel (who up to this point has been untouchable) subverts this wonderfully: while Enel is unable to hurt Luffy conventionally (Enel using lightning attacks and Luffy being made of rubber) Luffy can't hurt Enel conventionally either (as Enel can dodge all his attacks) and both must resort to cunning or insane tactics respectively. Deconstructed in the 4Kids (and only the 4Kids) dub with Kuina. She was the strongest fighter in her father's dojo, being able to beat anyone, regardless of age. However, after beating an adult, the person she defeated was so angry he got his friends to beat her up so she could never fight again. In the other formats, she just fell down the stairs and died anti-climactically.

While he might be at the disadvantage the first time he encounters a villain, by the second fight he's figured out a way to counter their strategy and defeat them. He can even defeat groups of soldiers in Powered Armor without summoning. There are two exceptions to this, however. Kyousuke never manages to defeat Elvast, even in the rematch.

Invincible Hero / int_a6543322	comment	Some in the Touhou Project fandom depict Reimu Hakurei as this, an unstoppable force not unlike a Determinator but with much less motivation required. Storyline-wise this is somewhat accurate; the main purpose of the spellcard system is to let anyone have a fair go at Reimu while ruling out the possibility of accidentally killing her, as her existence is necessary for the setting's continued existence. On the other hand, she has lost a number of fights in the multiplayer games' story modes and was outright stomped by Watatsuki no Yorihime, who herself is a clearer example, capable of defeating Sakuya Izayoi, Remilia Scarlet, Marisa Kirisame and Reimu herself, all of them considered some of the strongest players in Gensokyo, in succession. It is later revealed that she actively defies this in Imperishable Night: her last word, Fantasy Heaven, has her fly away from reality and it is said that the only reason it doesn't make her unstoppable is due to a self-imposed time limit. For reasons only known to herself, she tries to limit the use of this ability to the absolute minimum, even if it could theoretically solve many of her problems (like the above Watatsuki no Yorihime.)

Invincible Hero / int_a96a7ada	comment	Yu-Gi-Oh!: Yugi from the original manga rarely, if ever, loses a game, with most of his losses being to outside reasons, with only a few actual losses on record. He is hailed as the King of Games. To take it a bit further, Yami Yugi only loses once legitimately in the manganote His loss to Pegasus is primarily due to the time limit, and Yugi prevents him from defeating Kaiba since the latter was threatening to commit suicide if he lost, which is to Yugi himself. The anime has him lose a duel to Rafael, and it’s implied he lost to Joey when they dueled after Battle City. Judai/Jaden, in Yu-Gi-Oh! GX, has three losses, of which only one was plot-relevant, and currently holds the record for most onscreen victories of any character. In the later arcs, this is heavily Deconstructed. His third loss results in a massive case of Heroic BSoD, and in Season 3, he develops a Chronic Hero Syndrome, finds himself in situations far beyond his control, and ends up a Broken Ace. Yu-Gi-Oh! 5Ds: Yusei is arguably the most blatant example in the whole franchise, as he not only never loses on-screen, there's also no justification for it other than "he's just that good". His "victory" over Team Unicorn through the sheer power of his super-charisma has this trope written all over it. He managed to defeat three duelists, all of whom were skilled and one of whom had defeated two of his own comrades, in a tournament where there would have been no real repercussions if Yusei did lose, and did so due to the leader of said team refusing to exploit a situation where he could have won and that his entire strategy had been building towards. The closest thing to a loss he has is a duel against Jack in a flashback, his first duel against Kiryu, who nearly would have won had Yusei's D-Wheeler not broken down and impaled him, and when he tried dueling Jack with using Synchro’s, only for Jack to call it off when it’s clear he’d win had they continued. Crow isn't much different—he only suffered three losses (one where he lost on purpose) across the 120+ episodes he appeared in after his introduction. Yu-Gi-Oh! ZEXAL subverts this with Yuma, who has a number of onscreen losses on his record. It's Zig-Zagged, though, since any loss with a Numbers user would result in Astral dying and Yuma losing his Numbers, which nearly happened after his first duel against Kaito, he never loses to Numbers users or anyone hunting them, who happen to make up the vast majority of opponents. That said, Astral often needs to give him instructions on what moves to make. As the series progresses, Yuma improves significantly and so, by the time of ZEXAL II, this trope is played straight. Yu-Gi-Oh! ARC-V seems ready to subvert this in a similar fashion to ZEXAL, with Yuya losing to Yuzu early on, then his first duel with Reiji nearly ending in his loss before it was called off, only to lose to him in a rematch, then to Jack. But after losing narrowly to two major villains who fought him one after the other, this trope is played straight for the rest of the series, and other people tend to treat him as more or less a Messianic Archetype. Yusaku/Playmaker of Yu-Gi-Oh! VRAINS never once loses a Duel, with the exception of flashbacks. This is given the background that Yusaku was literally tortured into being stronger. Though unlike with Yusei, this is somewhat justified, as nearly all of Yusaku’s duels have Ai on the line, meaning if he lost just once, then his opponent takes Ai to either dispose of, sell, or reprogram him. Also played straight with Takeru Homura/Soulburner, who only suffers one loss to Bohman, though he would have lost to Roboppi if they hadn't malfunctioned. In Yu-Gi-Oh! SEVENS it's an Averted Trope with main protagonist Yuga Ohdo, who loses at least once an arc. It's played very straight with Tatsuhisa "Luke" Kamijo, who snuck into adult Duel centers about a year before the series and got good simply from training against strong opponents, and has yet to lose a Duel since. This gets subtly deconstructed after he becomes King of Duels at the end of the first season, as despite being made aware much earlier that he'd suffer And Then What?, he's still unprepared for having nowhere to aspire further, and he's later recruited by Arc Villain Yuo Goha to turn this trope against the heroes. While he's somewhat talented in other areas though, Luke is a textbook case of Idiot Hero and very prone to cowering in fear if something gets to him, generally his sister Tiger.

In Asterix and the Roman Agent, everyone in the village turns on each other because of the manipulations of one guy with a knack for causing strife. (The Finnish translation is able to use a handy expression for him, and the album title: "riidankylväjä", literally "sower of discord".) Asterix and the Soothsayer has a similar premise. In The Mansions of the Gods, the Gauls are threatened with commercial and cultural assimilation because of nothing more than an apartment complex built near the village. In the movie The Twelve Tasks of Asterix, the only tasks that give Asterix and Obelix any trouble are a "Leave Your Quest" Test and, especially, a building full of bureaucrats, of which the latter nearly drives them insane.

He's now one of the most powerful beings in the universe and the strongest of the heroes by several orders of magnitude. Failing when everything was in his hands wrecks him emotionally and he spends most of Avengers: Endgame a drunken slob who can barely get out of the house. In the climax he probably has the worst showing against the returning Thanos.

Invincible Hero / int_b962c879	comment	Fairy Tail has gotten some flak for being one of the series with the most in-your-face examples of The Power of Friendship conquering all. However, a point could genuinely be made for Erza Scarlet during the original manga. There are numerous instances of her came close to losing or not being able to finish a fight, though she does lose to Phantom Lord’s guild master, Jose, early on, and to the Oracion Seis in a group fight, specifically against Cobra, during the Nirvana and Key of the Starry Sky arcs. But all in all, she's almost never lost a fight. The only opponent who actually takes her on to the point she can't fight anymore (where she actually had outside help no less) is her own mother Irene Belserion and even then, it was technically a tie since Irene stabbed herself instead of killing Erza, thus taking her out of the fight too. This was somewhat subverted in Fairy Tail: 100 Years Quest, where her fight against a More than Mind Control Laxus, who is one of the few fighters explicitly stronger than her, ended in a draw.

Also subverted in the third film, where the only reason Ip's fight against Frank is a draw is due to the time limit set up by Frank. Given how the fight was shown, there's a serious possibility of Ip losing if the fight was longer.

Invincible Hero / int_bb52f62d	comment	Subverted with the Legendaries; despite the fact they have the reputation of being invincible heroes, they actually appear as goofy and clumsy most of the time, having trouble with quotidian tasks such as protecting a potion from a mere thief, only to reveal how badass they truly are when a real threat shows up. Even then, they are usually over-powered and have to earn their victory, especially during the Anathos Cycle.

Invincible Hero / int_bb849177	comment	The ultimate professional wrestling example of this trope is Goldberg. He had a winning streak of 173 after his WCW debut, finally broken by Kevin Nash after Scott Hall shocked him with a taser. Although this is an example of Tropes Are Tools; many, many fans didn't consider the streak boring at all. Goldberg could still get outwitted by other wrestlers though. And Bret Hart beat Goldberg several times after the streak was broken. And Goldberg lost some of his invincibility once he joined WWE.

Invincible Hero / int_bcadd7cb	comment	In Warhammer 40,000, every army is this... when appearing in their own codex. When they are appearing in other races' codexes, they tend to get beaten... Some codices don't take the Invincible Hero approach. Codex: Eldar shows that while they still have much strength in them, they are quite clearly sliding towards inevitable destruction. Codex: Dark Eldar is the same: the Dark Eldar are doomed. And The Imperial Guard- A textbook Redshirt Army of utterly expended troops herded off to die by moronic (or treacherous) generals to fight against horrifying foes and executed for the slightest infraction. Despite all of this, they still win often. The Ork logic goes something along these lines: "Orkz are never beaten in combat, if we win we win, if we die, we die fighting so that doesn't count and if we run away it's OK because we're always back for anuvver go". Tyranids avert this painfully, being the only army whose own rulebook goes into vast description about all the times the Tyranids lose. (Granted, nearly every single one of these cases serves as textbook examples of Pyrrhic Victory.) The logic is supposedly "if they won, you wouldn't be hearing about it." As the Tyranids measure it, their invasion so far has been a reconnaissance mission before the bulk of their forces arrive.

Except that by the end of the film, Herc is incredibly powerful and has handily defeated nearly every major threat mythological ancient Greece had to offer. The solution was to make the TV show an interquel taking place during Herc's high school years (a period skipped over entirely in the film) with Hercules always self-identifying as a "hero in training," and looking a tad scrawny compared to his adult self from the latter two-thirds of the movie.

Invincible Hero / int_c43df4d8	comment	Doctor Who: After his first season (in which he was a very flawed and fallible hero doing his best in difficult circumstances), the Third Doctor's era had a tendency to fall into this. Jon Pertwee liked to play the Doctor as being always in control and one step ahead, and as time wore on in the era, the Brigadier devolved from a powerful and pragmatic figure the Doctor struggled to influence to a comedy incompetent the Doctor could easily overrule. Being the Doctor, he was smarter than everyone around him, and being the moral centre of the show, he was always right about everything. When Philip Hinchcliffe took over the producer role and Tom Baker the mantle of the Doctor, both liked the idea of making the Doctor a more distant and fearful figure who would face physical and emotional pain and make the occasional poor decision. A common criticism of the Graham Williams era is that the Fourth Doctor ends up as one of these. The preceding era (produced by Philip Hinchcliffe) would often play Break the Badass with him by forcing him to struggle through his fear or physical pain, or having him paralysed by indecision and get squeamish about Shooting The Dog, or even letting him get Mind Raped or beaten up, so the powerful character of the Doctor and Tom Baker's charismatic performance would have something to overcome. But, by the Williams era, he's physically strong enough to best people in a straight-up fight, has all sorts of amazing Time Lord powers that get him out of scrapes, he can charm his way into making anyone love him or act his way into making anyone hate him, is so clever that he can solve the mysteries in his head and needs no-one else's help, and he does it all with a winning smile to the camera. His odd and difficult personality keeps him entertainingly flawed and he does some great character-based and slapstick comedy in these seasons, but it's almost never used to create in-story tension. The very first story of the JNT era signalled a big backlash from this by making the Doctor both physically and emotionally vulnerable in a way obvious in promotional pictures; later, the same producer oversaw the Doctor's regeneration into a younger and more subtle character defined by his flaws and vulnerabilities.

Invincible Hero / int_c4b82575	comment	Selene from Underworld (2003) is this in spades, starting out as invincible to begin with and even being more powerful than her boyfriend, who was supposed to be the most powerful creature of all time once he became a hybrid, and ends up being little more than her attack dog. Then it snowballs from there when she gets an upgrade in the second film and is made immune to sunlight and possibly to all other vampire weaknesses. In the fourth film this is taken to ridiculous levels and her daughter is just as bad. By the fourth film Vampires pretty much consider her a God. What makes it worse is that in the Underworld series the older you are, the more powerful you are. Despite what should be a massive gap in power, she succeeds in killing The FIRST VAMPIRE in the second film, who himself became a hybrid and as such should be able to beat down everyone in the cast with ease. She never takes more than one-two hits per film (and even then only because the plot demands that she has to in order to keep the movie from more or less dying midway through) and even then just shrugs them off like they were nothing.

Invincible Hero / int_c511c682	comment	Asterix is a big offender. Every single battle between Romans (or, really, anyone) and Gauls has the Gauls curb-stomp their opponents, thanks to their magic potion that grants Super-Speed, Super-Reflexes, Super-Strength, and arguably Nigh-Invulnerability. Plus, even in case of a shortage, they have Obelix, who doesn't need to drink any potion since he fell in it during his childhood, and the effect never wore off. As a result, the Romans never, ever, in any comic, manage to gain the smallest durable advantage over the Gauls. Most plot tension actually comes from Asterix being excessively prudent and avoiding confrontation with Romans troops, even though he and Obelix are more than able to defeat hundreds of Elite Mooks on their own, and have already done so a few times. When trying to steal Caesar's laurel wreath, Asterix states that the magic potion doesn't protect from being harmed by Roman weapons. Whether it's true or not is unclear, but they never seem to be hurt anyway. On one occasion, a Gaul spy working for Caesar pulls what looks like a perfect Xanatos Gambit: he tries to prevent Asterix from getting the oil necessary to cook the magic potion by all means necessary, hoping to trick Getafix into giving him the recipe. Even after Asterix somehow stumbles upon an oil well, he destroys their oil bag and informs Ceasar that the Gauls are now totally deprived of their only mean of defense. Except that Getafix turns out to have found a new recipe for the magic potion during their journey. In Asterix and the Cauldron, Asterix and Obelix sign up for some prize fights in order to raise money. However, the Magic Potion makes the fights so one-sided that people quickly lose interest, and the fight promoter runs out of other fighters willing to fight the pair. The reason Asterix is excessively prudent some of the time, is that there are often non-powered allies or something else that they want to protect, like a barrel of magic potion (in Asterix in Britain) and a direct confrontation would put them or it at peril. Otherwise, plot tension happens only when Asterix loses his flask of potion. Some of the biggest threats to the Gauls come from things that can't be physically fought anyway, averting this trope. In Asterix and the Roman Agent, everyone in the village turns on each other because of the manipulations of one guy with a knack for causing strife. (The Finnish translation is able to use a handy expression for him, and the album title: "riidankylväjä", literally "sower of discord".) Asterix and the Soothsayer has a similar premise. In The Mansions of the Gods, the Gauls are threatened with commercial and cultural assimilation because of nothing more than an apartment complex built near the village. In the movie The Twelve Tasks of Asterix, the only tasks that give Asterix and Obelix any trouble are a "Leave Your Quest" Test and, especially, a building full of bureaucrats, of which the latter nearly drives them insane.

Invincible Hero / int_c62995ba	comment	Child of the Storm intentionally sets out to subvert this, as part of its basic premise: namely, to take all the classic Super!Harry tropes and turn them on their collective ear. The gist is that Harry has a whole shedload of potential powers thanks to being a demigod on one side (James Potter was Thor on a first tilt at the whole 'humility' thing - it worked very well up until it didn't), and related to Jean Grey on the other. Add the fact that his protection comes from the Phoenix a.k.a. Lily as the White Phoenix of the Crown and he seems pretty invincible. However, mostly he's plagued with delayed powers, then malfunctioning powers, and then poorly understood powers. All with lots of people way out of his weight class looking to whack him before he grows into his power. Also, the protection is pretty damned impressive, but there are Dire Consequences from actually using it. Also, the key thrust of the story is that above all, Harry is a young boy who simply wants a family and something approximating a normal life - though he enjoys life-or-death situations a bit more than is healthy. As a result, the primary sources of tension and drama are adjusting to his dramatically altered circumstances, the tremendous amount of stress he undergoes, resulting in PTSD. And then there's puberty, which comes with plenty of challenges of its own. Meanwhile, the Avengers also seem on paper to be invincible, composed of two Badass Normals, a billionaire Gadgeteer Genius and Ace Pilot, a Super-Soldier and Living Legend who kind of lives up to the legend, a man with breathtaking anger issues who can match a Physical God for strength and toughness when he isn't wielding an insightful scientific mind, and two Physical Gods with Combo Platter Powers, Loki having been Reformed, but Not Tamed. But they can be tricked, captured, and defeated, as HYDRA prove in the first book and the Red Court and their Outsider allies in the second. The standout example, however, is Doctor Strange. He hardly appears in the first book before chapter 60, and even then only intermittently before the final battle. However, he is the immortal Lord of Time, who has everything and everyone dancing to his tune, manoeuvring the colossal Gambit Pileup with ease. He's a universally feared Living Legend whose wrath can make even the gods themselves cower, and even the mightiest cosmic entities are his puppets in his grand scheme as the Time Stone's champion against Thanos. It gets to the point where everyone assumes that everything is going according to his plan and whatever they do is playing straight into his hands. However, the sequel reveals that he's not quite as omniscient as he carefully makes himself out to be, and there's a few blind spots in his vision, one of which nearly causes everything to fall apart in Forever Red. It also goes into more detail about his past and the man behind the mask, revealing his more human side, and the fact that, yes, he has screwed up a few times and the consequences have been epic. Additionally, drama is preserved by the fact that every scheme of his has a cost, either emotional or in blood or both, and that he's dying.

Invincible Hero / int_c70a1171	comment	Pick a pulp novel hero. Any pulp novel hero from the 1930s whether it be Conan, Kull, Solomon Kane, John Carter of Mars, Tarzan, or especially, Doc Savage. They will be far superior to any other human (even those of their own group), irresistibly attractive to females, and the best warrior that ever lived, requiring dozens of other warriors to even stand a chance; and usually a brilliant intellectual. Some writers knew this might be boring so they toned down one of these aspects or got rid of it altogether. Other times they were able to make the rest of the story interesting enough that it didn't matter. John Carter, at least, is occasionally shown as having some doubts about his ability to get out of his latest scrap... though to return to the "invincible" theme, often he's not actually worried about losing, he's just concerned that he may not be able to win fast enough to prevent some other event that's happening at the same time (often, Dejah Thoris being kidnapped). If it's less than 90% of the way through the book, he probably won't win fast enough.

Invincible Hero / int_c832776	comment	One of the biggest problems many Gundam fans had with the ending of Mobile Suit Gundam SEED Destiny was that at the end the returning SEED cast had won the final fight without losing a single named character. The greatest loss that the Archangel team suffered was the Justice Gundam's flight pack, and they even went so far as to strike a victory pose at the end to show that they hadn't been scratched. Compare this to every final fight in other Gundam series, including the original Mobile Suit Gundam SEED, in which every character can die and the main character often only gains a narrow victory while his Gundam gets trashed in the process. It also didn't help that this clashed with the promotional art released in advance of the final arc, which showed the Strike Freedom and the Destiny Gundams locked in a bitter struggle, having been torn to shred and reduced to a single weapon each, trying to land a decisive blow on one another.

A large part of the entertainment value comes from the utterly bizarre punishments he doles out to evildoers. His other character, Fantomah the Jungle Queen, was Stardust's Distaff Counterpart. These were pretty much Hanks' stock-in-trade, in fact - even his Charles Atlas Superpower characters like "Space" Smith and Big Red McLane were capable of taking on wave after wave of enemies in a fight and winning effortlessly every time (unless the plot demanded they suddenly be struck from behind and captured, and even that would be only a minor inconvenience). At the end, their adversaries would either be swiftly brought to justice or ironically killed in the last few panels, and the comic would abruptly end with the heroes leaving to go elsewhere. From the perspective of an unsophisticated, hard-living guy like Hanks, who abandoned his children at a young age and regularly got into bar brawls in taverns across New York, this was a perfectly sensible way of telling a story.

Ever. To his allies, he's a Hope Bringer, to his enemies he's a Hero Killer, and on both sides, he's Famed in Story. However, his role as the Invincible Hero is subverted often and Played for Drama by Yang himself when he candidly admits that the moment he stops being invincible is also the moment he stops being a hero. By the end we find he's Not So Invincible After All. Also, while Yang does win almost any battle as long as he's involved, it's often mentioned and hinted that he'll still lose in some areas. For example, while he nearly kills Reinhard during Battle of Vermillion, Mittermeyer captures Alliance's capital, forcing Yang's fleet to ceasefire. In two other battles he wins over the Empire, capturing back Iserlohn Fortress, but he lost Bucock and Fischer, one being his father figure, and another the "heart" of his fleet. It's even notified that Yang won't stand a chance if Reinhard attacks again after Fischer is killed. Reinhard, on the other hand, is also considered as Invincible from the beginning of the story to the point that he effectively ends the whole war and unifies the universe halfway through the story, but interestingly he'll always feel that his victory isn't complete when Yang is there to disrupt him from getting a total victory. The only real time he gets a crushing defeat is the Battle for the Corridor where he lost two top admirals to Yang's ragtag fleet.

Invincible Hero / int_cf3e7a82	comment	Superman is perhaps the most famous example, albeit one Depending on the Writer. He's just really hard to take out in a "fair" fight when the Kryptonite Factor isn't in play (or Joker Immunity for certain archvillains such as Darkseid or Lex Luthor). Not all writers know how to write a good Superman story that lets Superman use his powers competently but that doesn't instantly kill all tension in the plot. I'm a Marvel... And I'm a DC uses this quite well to actually make Superman relatable again. He's constantly lamenting how no one seems to care about him anymore, having moved on to the more fallible and relatable characters in Marvel's comics, and is frozen by self-doubt when Lex Luthor's newest scheme wipes out every other superhero in the world. He's finally able to win with the realization that all of those other heroes are relatable because they're all doing the same thing we all are, trying to be more like Superman. (Made slightly humorous/heartwarming in that it is Stan Lee that points this out to him.) Grant Morrison has saved him from this multiple times by making him the Showy Invincible Hero and making him fun to watch. The All-Star DC Comics run being the most prominent example. Also prominent early in Morrison's JLA run where Superman briefly muses that he isn't sure if he lives up to his legend. Pages later he restores the Moon's orbit by giving it magnetic poles. Later still, while he's battling the archangel Azmodel: And all this while the League is dealing with the actual Big Bad. He got Superman out of the way as the writers often have to do in League stories, but gave him cool stuff to do. How To Write Superman Well is summed up in one word in the aforementioned angel-wrestling scene: The DC Digital First series Superman: Man of Tomorrow leaned into this with a number of stories showing Supes in situations where being an Invincible Hero wasn't really the point. Two special situations in the title come to mind. The first was when Superman was fighting a similarly invincible former gladiator who knew he was dying and wanted to Face Death with Dignity in his own way, by claiming as his 1000th Duel to the Death victory the Last Son of Krypton. He had no ill intent or real desire to kill Supes from malice. Superman played along, having an epic brawl (one that managed to bust a few of his ribs, even!) with the gladiator, finally Faking the Dead to give the gladiator closure and the glory of having bested Superman, so he could leave with his head held high. The other issue is one where Supes isn't even fighting anything. Instead, Atlas (yes, THAT Atlas) asks Superman to take over for a day on his punishment to hold up the Earth. The weight is such that even Superman struggles to bear it, and it nearly lays him out. But he endures patiently and even gladly — he's spelling Atlas so that Atlas can attend his daughter's wedding. Speaking of supporting characters, one of the reasons Superman usually isn't described as a Canon Sue is from the focus of the tension being more on danger to other people rather than a danger to Superman. While Superman himself is near-invulnerable, saving loads of people at once is usually made extremely difficult, making the readers concerned about the people Superman can't save and its emotional effect on himnote This was used very well in the otherwise forgettable Superman Returns Video Game. Superman himself is, aside from one or two missions, completely invincible - rather, his health meter is the city and its inhabitants, and "survival" is about preventing collateral damage and casualties. The Adventures of Superman, the 1950s George Reeve television show, is somewhat unusual to modern expectations in largely having a parade of petty mobsters be the villains. The better episodes have there be some tension in the villainous plots; the weaker episodes, well, it turns out those bullets are bouncing off Superman. Again. At several points, attempts have been made to give Superman weaknesses and vulnerabilities in order to have him being seriously threatened and make him relatable. Kryptonite was the first such attempt, but then writers simply took off with it, inventing literally dozens of forms of kryptonite with each one affecting him differently. It got so bad that some people did the math and calculated that Krypton must have been a planet roughly the size of the entire solar system in order for so many different chunks of it, randomly distributed throughout space by the planet exploding many light-years away, to have found their way to earth. Then the idea was put up that if he was cut off from the rays of our yellow sun, then his powers would quickly fade. Okay for a while, but then it was retconned that his cells all acted as storage batteries, storing sufficient amounts of energy to keep his powers going for quite some time, even if cut off from the sun. Superman is also depicted as being vulnerable to magic to the extent that it affects him as much any human, established long ago considering how Mister Mxyzptlk is able to bedevil him. Joss Whedon talked about the difficulties of WB putting together a JLA movie versus his own massive success with The Avengers. He pointed out that the Avengers are easier to write and film since they all either have relatable problems or are weak enough to write action scenes for, while comparatively, characters like Superman and Wonder Woman are seen as "gods" without many flaws note despite the fact that one of the Avengers is literally a god.. Add in other powerhouse characters like Green Lantern and The Flash, and it becomes very difficult to write convincing threats for the group in a cinematic setting.

However, he is reported to have once been beaten by the main character in author Fukumoto's earlier work Ten. To clarify, Akagi in Ten only lost twice, and in both cases he himself effectively forfeited the match due to technicalities of his own making. Other characters acknowledge that if only Akagi had decided to go against his word and kept playing until the end, he would have likely come out on top. Further, when Akagi loses a round, it's typically because his opponent either got the better of him ("cheating" doesn't really count because Akagi abuses his opponents like a red-headed stepchild when he cheats, which is often) or because Akagi is purposely laying a trap (e.g.: The third game, vs. Urabe).

His "victory" over Team Unicorn through the sheer power of his super-charisma has this trope written all over it. He managed to defeat three duelists, all of whom were skilled and one of whom had defeated two of his own comrades, in a tournament where there would have been no real repercussions if Yusei did lose, and did so due to the leader of said team refusing to exploit a situation where he could have won and that his entire strategy had been building towards. The closest thing to a loss he has is a duel against Jack in a flashback, his first duel against Kiryu, who nearly would have won had Yusei's D-Wheeler not broken down and impaled him, and when he tried dueling Jack with using Synchro’s, only for Jack to call it off when it’s clear he’d win had they continued. Crow isn't much different—he only suffered three losses (one where he lost on purpose) across the 120+ episodes he appeared in after his introduction.

While the other characters have seen their strength fluctuate over the years, Link started as a God tier character, and just kept on climbing. He was removed from the main bracket in 2005 to give other characters a chance to win. Due to a Retool changing the format to four-way free-for-alls, Link returned to the main bracket in 2007, but by then, not even the rest of the nine characters considered to be the strongest could touch him, never mind any other poor sod unlucky enough to get in his way. Humorously, the one time Link was defeated in the Character Battles, it was by the Tetris L-Block. It was plainly obvious that this only happened because the GameFAQs userbase was simply sick of Link winning every year without fail. And then DRAAAAAVEN, using general popularity of League of Legends, stole Link's victory a second time.

Despite it being mentioned early on that he has half of a vampire's strength and half of the weaknesses, he has since become such a Marty Stu that nothing that the most powerful entities in his world can dish out against him can even make him change his expression. The only one who could even remotely threaten him is his daddy dearest. Similar to the Golgo 13 example, and the Alucard example, he has reached the level of plot device. The story hinges on the growth and changes of the people surrounding him, and whether it will be a Bittersweet Ending, or a Downer Ending, or a Shoot the Shaggy Dog. There's a striking case of Early-Installment Weirdness in the first novel when D gets briefly distracted by the lighting of a stick of time-bewitching incense that can make a vampire's senses think it's night or day, throwing off his concentration long enough for his opponent Rei-Ginsei to kill him in a straight fight. But then his parasite hand revives him and he's pretty much never threatened again for the rest of the series.

Invincible Hero / int_e67a7d6c	comment	Negima! Magister Negi Magi usually averts this (Negi generally loses at least one fight with any villain before he beats them), but the Tournament Arc followed the subtrope of getting to the finals and then losing. Although in that case, the victory was in reaching the finals, and what happened then. Alternatively, his father Nagi Springfield has been explicitly stated to be completely invincible. Through all the flashbacks, we've yet to see him greatly struggle (with the exception of a tie and a climactic battle against someone by the name of "Lifemaker"). In fact, the Myth Arc of the series concerns Nagi's disappearance ten years prior to the start of the series, and his son's attempts to find out what could possibly have happened to him. Jack Rakan is also effectively invincible. To the point where the only opponents who have ever given him trouble are Nagi (who's more... invincible... or something) and the Lifemaker and Fate. Fate had to rewrite reality in order to have a shot, and Jack is still holding his own. And when Negi and Rakan finally fought each other in the finals of another Tournament Arc they both fought each other to a standstill and the fight ended in a draw. And even then, it's still a victory for Negi for reaching Rakan's level. However, this was only achieved through Rakan, who was still powerful enough to fight which Negi does note, deciding to let it be a draw and the fact that Kotarou got beaten to the inch of his life while stalling time for Negi (it was a tag-team tournament) and helped Negi by briefly halting Rakan from moving so Negi could hit him with an extremely powerful spell.

Considering he has both the Ultimatrix and a decently powerful Servant by his side, he is pretty much overpowering everyone in the war (except possibly Gilgamesh), and is considered by many as the biggest threat. The subversion comes from the fact Ben, being from a more kid-friendly show, appears as a Wide-Eyed Idealist in the Nasuverse, which is a major handicap in the Grey-and-Gray Morality context of the Holy Grail War, as almost everyone else will either act pragmatic or try to take advantage of his idealism.

It gets to the point that the recent manga stories sometimes focus on other players, or the Japanese team playing without him so as to give some drama. The Next Dream arc however subverts it, where Tsubasa suffers a huge defeat while playing in the Barcelona FC against Natureza in the Real Madrid, with the latter winning by a landslide. Genzo Wakabayashi is also this to an extent. It's been established that almost nobody is able to score him (let alone from outside the penalty area) and those who manage to do so are considered heroes in their own right, such as Schneider and Natureza. He often has to be Put on a Bus or suffer a Game-Breaking Injury to keep matches exciting, given that if he's in the goal at full capacity, it's almost a guarantee that Japan's goal will go undefeated.

The intention was probably to promote good sportsmanship, but when you don't have consequences that characters actually care about then it sucks all the drama from the room.

He's shown to be ridiculously smart (having built a top-of-the-line custom gaming PC at age 14, knowing how to hack SAO's code, among other things), and is easily considered the best player. He wins every fight with little effort. In fact, one of the only times he's ever lost was when his opponent ( the Big Bad himself, the creator of the game) cheated. There's one scene in particular in which a gang of player-killers rush him. He stands still, completely unfazed while he explains that his health regeneration skill is so high that it refills at a faster rate than his enemies can deal out damage. Later on, he gains a sword skill that is exclusive to him and him alone. Even when his health is depleted to zero, he somehow wills himself back to life to land the finishing blow on Kayaba. Then, in SAO2, he transfers to the First-Person Shooter-themed Gun Gale Online, and immediately begins consistently and handily defeating his opponents, despite having never played the game or any firearm-based MMOs, and going up against players with far more experience than him. It isn't until the end of SAO2 that he actually loses a fight fair and square, and by that point, it hardly matters.

Invincible Hero / int_f3c07f91	comment	The Mask. He's invincible due to deliberate cartoon physics as a given superpower. His only weakness is that his mask can be removed, but even then he can fool his adversaries with trick mask removals. Though he does have quirks that get in the way such as being genuinely insane, wacky, having a short attention span, and having Skewed Priorities}}. Plus, in one episode, it shows that if the wearer is sick, the Mask will get an even worse version of the disease, no matter if it is the common cold.

Invincible Hero / int_f4e799ee	comment	Michael Westen in the early seasons of Burn Notice, at least in regards to his non-spy Villains Of The Week. His skills and resourcefulness so vastly outclass his opponents that there simply is no dramatic tension. It's a measure of Mike's usual invincibility that the most effective scene in the series showed him nearly whimpering in the face of one more, notably galling injustice. Michael's more serious opponents put up a better fight, and "beat" him several times. In later seasons, Michael is less invincible, as his plans often hit a major bump halfway through (often because the client does something stupid) that leaves him racing to regain control of the situation. Michael's invincibility was lampshaded by a member of a Russian assassination squad in Season 4's "Past and Future Tense"

Invincible Hero / int_f6a1016f	comment	Neo of The Matrix grows so strong by the end of the first movie that when he fights three enhanced Agents alone in The Matrix Reloaded, he casually quips "Huh, upgrades" when one of them blocks an attack. The only bad guy who is capable of taking him on equal terms is Smith with a powerful copy of himself that's absorbed the Oracle's powers.

Invincible Hero / int_f8705c18	comment	Alucard from Hellsing is an immortal Sociopathic Hero, able to survive even near-total bodily destruction. Though whether he's the series' hero is arguable, he receives quite a lot of screen time and plot focus, and few if any situations ever credibly threaten him. Note that Alucard starts off as a Showy Invincible Hero... before even using a fraction of his powers. It's a Deconstructed Character Archetype, actually. The Major's plan seems to be simply to start a war with London. There's A LOT more to it than that. The point of his plan is to get Alucard down to a form where he's vulnerable enough to finally die. Starting a war and taking London down are pretty much just bonuses. It's also revealed that his sheer invincibility has led to him becoming a bit of a Death Seeker, yearning for a Worthy Opponent to finally kill him (specifically a human, as Alexander trying to discard his humanity to power himself up with Helena's Nail is one of the few things that legitimately angers Alucard, even though it provided one of the toughest fights he'd encountered up to that point.)

Invincible Hero / int_f9b9dfe4	comment	Ike in Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn. He even tells the Final Boss before fighting her that in every battle he's been in, he always comes out on top. Interestingly enough, Ike is actually the antagonist in several parts of Radiant Dawn when you're playing as Micaiah. He even appears as a boss in one chapter, and can be fought normally— And he still never loses! If you defeat him, you'll "win" the chapter automatically (normally it's a defend mission), he'll comment about how much trouble he's having but he'll receive unexpected reinforcements and the following cutscene explains that you're still losing the battle. Regardless of what side the player is on, Ike's forces beat Micaiah's every time.

Invincible Hero / int_fcfec4b6	comment	Noir has its leading ladies usually come out on top, often with ridiculous ease, but considering that they're assassins the other option would end the series. There are a few exceptions, and they do get close a few times: Mirielle nearly dies in the first episode and only survives thanks to Kirika showing up, and Kirika herself gets seriously wounded in an early episode because of a stupid mistake.

Invincible Hero / int_fd314ec1	comment	Kamen Rider Decade is basically the same as Kabuto, although slightly less smug about it. Decade's invincibility is deliberate, as his gimmick is being a Fixer Sue who travels between various stories based on the previous nine Riders, solves their problems, and leaves while having no story of his own to belong to. One movie explains his power level by claiming he's a new incarnation of the franchise as a whole's Big Bad.

Invincible Hero / int_fe1b5414	comment	Mob Psycho 100: The protagonist Shigeo "Mob" Kageyama is often regarded as one of the most powerful espers in the world and is capable of taking down evil spirits or enemy espers that cross his paths. Especially during the early arcs. It's downplayed, however, as Mob isn't interested in living up to this archetype and would prefer to live a normal life. It's also worth mentioning that his master Reigen is strongly against his pupil fighting adult espers and implores him not to use his powers when possible.
