Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })City of Reality is a webcomic by Ian Samson, best known before this for his work as a guest artist for The Wotch and other Transformation Comics. He also has an online portfolio of various transformation art, including Idle Minds and QT 3.14.The titular city is set in a world that is virtually free of crime and unhappiness, where all the inhabitants have seemingly learned to get along without strife — in other words, a perfect Mary Suetopia. The mayor is a puppet — literally. Everyone is nice, all the time, even if their homes are being destroyed by a tornado or they're discovering their wife is having an affair. And the government? It's literally the mayor, and no one else. And the strangest thing: as wrong as it all seems, it's just as bright as it appears to be: a carefree world where everyone is happy and friendly and nobody lets anything change that. But that may be a problem in itself, for people accustomed to things that constantly go right may find themselves at a loss when things finally go horribly wrong...Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })The stars of City of Reality are the kid members of SUEPR Team Five, an organization of superheroes tasked with protecting Reality against any threats — and rescuing puppies or helping old ladies cross the street in their spare time. Todo, the team leader, is a native of Reality. AV and Hawk, the newest members, are both immigrants to Reality who must overcome their fears and uncertainties to truly fit in. In turn, they help the idealistic Todo learn to deal with other worlds where people aren't so nice.Originally releasing multiple pages every 1st and 15th of a month, updates became more and more sporadic until the comic went into an infinite hiatus. It used to be hosted here, but for some reason the host website went down for several years, and while it's returned it has little of the old content. The aforementioned portfolio site has gone down as well, and his Tumblr has been inactive for a few years, however Ian's DeviantArt is still up and active as of December 2021.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_3'); }) | |

Jumping Off the Slippery Slope | |
City of Reality (Webcomic) / int_1520ad7e | comment |
Jumping Off the Slippery Slope: Hinto Ama at first used her powers only on villains, and only to incapacitate them. Then she started leaving them that way. Then she started using them on petty criminals, annoyances, and finally, whoever she wanted. | |

All There in the Manual | |
City of Reality (Webcomic) / int_17ce80aa | comment |
All There in the Manual: Hinto, Danny, and the Manumitor are all from earlier one-shot comics, as well as a recurring victim who was turned into water by a jealous lover (probably Hinto, although the art is too sketchy and the characters too prototypical to tell). Danny and the Manumitor once burst in on a couple from an earlier miniseries. More importantly, at the beginning of chapter 7 and again halfway through, there's a link to the version that was originally posted, before the villain went back and changed the archive; you'll have to read it to understand a number of things. | |

City of Reality (Webcomic) / int_208c4494 | comment |
With Great Power Comes Great Insanity: Transformation magic. Hinto wound up Jumping Off the Slippery Slope after years as a hero, leaving her very close successor horrified by such magic, even for good; Danny seems to be heading in a similar direction, with his first reaction to an apparent rape being joy at having a "real criminal" to transform, and his trigger-happiness sending a bad but possibly salvageable situation out of control. | |

Ironic Echo: A villain character, after explaining how Reality's recent change on its isolationist policies has allowed him to easily enter the city and get away with kidnapping a young woman, states "I, for one, greatly enjoy change." A second later, a dragon punches through the wall of the apartment and apprehends the villain, and when the villain indicates surprise that there's a dragon in Reality, the dragon says, "Things change, scum! And I, for one, greatly enjoy change!" | |

Kid Heroes: Most of SUEPR. Although the ages of the main characters are not specified exactly, recruits may join immediately after high school, as an alternative to college or apprenticeship. By the apparent adolescence of most and the preponderance of precocious younger children, it's probable that high school ends earlier in Reality. | |

Mythology Gag | |
City of Reality (Webcomic) / int_26ac510e | comment |
Mythology Gag - Tons to the author's previous and current transformation art, and several of them count as Shout Outs as well. This is why Kimmy resembles a female version of Naruto (and another person on her team resembles a female version of Impulse). Another example would be right after the Magic World arc, when the Manumitor turns an ordinary looking pot in the leader of Magic World's office back into a girl: this the direct reverse of an earlier transformation comic the author made (and the girl is Annie from The New Batman Adventures). | |

City of Reality (Webcomic) / int_29c50e28 | comment |
Trial-and-Error Gameplay: Quite literally done by Hawk to beat Todo's score, thanks to the rewind device. Also, part of the fifth chapter is structured like a Choose Your Own Adventure game, and there's absolutely no rule of thumb for which action won't get someone killed or permanently transformed. You'll just have to keep trying until you find it. | |

Artifact of Doom | |
City of Reality (Webcomic) / int_3b5fcbb7 | comment |
Artifact of Doom: The Device. It seems harmless enough at first, until it's revealed to be causing the storm that's killed dozens. Then on Magic World, outside of civilization, it becomes sentient and prescient, and no longer needs a power source. Whether it's malevolent or not is up for debate: it certainly has a sadistic sense of humor, but it saves the heroes whenever you/they make the wrong decision, and the one time it resets time regardless of your decisions seems malevolent in the short term, and its stated reason is pure sadism, but depending on whether it was telling the truth in a certain Bad Ending, may or may not have saved their lives. | |

Secret Test of Character: The test to see whether or not a person can immigrate to Reality. And they never do the same test twice. There's actually multiple tests, each of them really simple things that any nice person would do, but a jerk would overlook. And since they also employ mind readers in reality when possible, they can tell whether or not you're genuinely nice, or just pretending. | |

City of Reality (Webcomic) / int_5009999d | comment |
Painting the Medium: When time is changed, it's usually represented by first showing the initial version, then having a Flash button to replace the comic with the new version. Later, when it was changed much more extensively, it was represented to those reading along at the time by going back and changing the strips; new readers are expected to first read the current version, then read the villain's backstory in the original timeline, in a series of pages linked under the strip representing the point of collapse. | |

Meaningful Name/Shout-Out: Magic World has Eldritch Street and Omelas Street (a possible reference to "The Ones Who Walk Away From Omelas", a short story about a utopian city where the happiness and perfection only exists because one child is trapped in a dark closet, starved and filthy). The exact definition of "Manumitor" is a slave-owner who frees his own slaves. The Manumitor really is a perfectly apt name. | |

Magic A Is Magic A | |
City of Reality (Webcomic) / int_6c3d1777 | comment |
Magic A Is Magic A: The rules of each world are governed by their respective Aura Stones. When people from one world travel to another, they become subject to the new rules unless they bring a piece of their own Aura Stone with them. Chapter Seven is dedicated to Reality's attempts to formally investigate the interactions of the various stones. One of the rules of the World of Magic is that magic is consensual. With enough willpower, you can resist any spell. Hinto Ama's transformation powers are so frightening because they aren't subject to this rule. | |

Vague Age | |
City of Reality (Webcomic) / int_7f080f98 | comment |
Vague Age: No ages are ever mentioned, and the art style is intentionally cartoonish and vague as to drive this point home. The author has stated that this is intentional, so he doesn't get tripped up trying to write romantic subplots; however by direct inference from the comic the main characters must be at least old enough to graduate high school, but young enough to surprise people who meet them on other worlds, and to have an apparent growth spurt between chapters 5 and 6. It's probable high school ends earlier, with the apparent precocity of nearly all the younger children. | |

Harmful to Minors | |
City of Reality (Webcomic) / int_abc60c5d | comment |
Harmful to Minors: No one seems too concerned with younger teens being exposed to sex in Reality: when AV is touring Reality, a couple tells her a very frank story about their love life, and a prostitute makes a case for her to become one at a later date; AV buys a whip (for fashion) at a sex shop without anyone batting an eye; and when Danny and the Manumitor burst in on sex they think is a rape, no one seems the least concerned at Danny being exposed to it. No one in Reality seems too worried about violence, either, with SUEPR, comprised mostly of teenagers, being the ones sent for missions on more dangerous worlds, something that shocks Magic World. It's presented as part of the same Incorruptible Pure Pureness that lets small children take rides from strangers and train with guns without worry. Kimmy, who doesn't look a day over ten, is tortured in both timelines, and either murdered in the old timeline or controlled by a Puppeteer Parasite in the new. | |

Sadistic Choice: This trope is analyzed with the Bus Full Of Orphans vs Hero's One True Love choice. We get a look at what it would be like if the hero took the selfish choice, telling his one true love that he couldn't bear to be parted with her... while they both watch a bus full of orphans drown. There's a good reason why most of the examples of this trope end with the hero taking a third option. | |

Batman Grabs a Gun | |
City of Reality (Webcomic) / int_d563a53c | comment |
Batman Grabs a Gun: At some point while the group is surrounded by hostile Pazcats, Todo resorts to grabbing a weapon and taking a young Pazcat hostage by shoving it in their mouth. All surrounding Pazcats are horrified by this (though they wouldn't have been had the hostage not been a Pazcat)... Then to Todo's horror, the hostage yells "Pazcats don't lose to fodder!"note Fantastic Slur they use on anything that not a Pazcat and bites down on the weapon, explosively discharging it. | |

Stepford Suburbia | |
City of Reality (Webcomic) / int_d93c5989 | comment |
Stepford Suburbia: Subverted. Immigrants to Reality are sometimes intimidated by the kindness and generosity of the inhabitants, so much so that they assume a darker side beneath. Except there really isn't; everyone is just that nice. Which then makes the conflict with the other worlds so much more dramatic, and in a Double Subversion, acts as a justification for SUEPR Team One's attempt to destroy Magic World. | |

Reset Button | |
City of Reality (Webcomic) / int_d9c4365c | comment |
Reset Button: Literally, in the form of a magic device that allows the user to rewind time, undoing all memories except their own. A bit of Flash is used for an interesting effect: the reader clicks on a reset button on the bottom of a page, and the actual page is overwritten! In a more extreme example, a villain resets half a chapter. | |

Red Herring | |
City of Reality (Webcomic) / int_dbca2c99 | comment |
Red Herring: Todo, AV, and Hawk are told the story of Hinto Ama, who was driven mad by the power of transformation, which she would use to turn people permanently into inanimate objects for petty reasons; before this, in the main path of a Gamebook segment, they'd come across an insane witch resembling Hinto with green skin, who turned AV into stone, intending it to be permanent until talked down, whereas other paths would have lead to the whole trio being permanently turned into flowers, all-female angel statues, water, or miscellaneous objects. Naturally, she's not the one. Also, the very first chapter starts with a shadowy man abducting a little girl under the pretense of giving her a ride home. Contrary to what you would expect, he is just giving her a ride home out of simple kindness, thus quickly establishing what the people of Reality are like. (He's later seen herding a group of children around a museum.) | |

Intentionally Awkward Title: "Reality" takes as its demonyms "Realist" and "Realistic," which, due to the city's hat, generally mean extreme idealism. | |

City of Reality (Webcomic) / int_e34ada78 | comment |
Authority Equals Asskicking: Both the leader of Dark World and the leader of Magic World. Justified in both cases... Dark World is ruled by whoever's tough enough to kick all the ass on the way to the top, and the leader of Magic World was using magic drained out of the rest of the world to power up. | |

City of Reality (Webcomic) / int_fd4f8299 | comment |
Well-Intentioned Extremist: SUEPR Team One are set up as villains for wanting to destroy Magic World, but... are they right? Also, the Manumitor, AKA Hinto Ama, who is trying to make up for her past villainy. She refuses to use her powers out of guilt, and is so full of self loathing and obsessed with reversing the transformations she caused that she cut herself off from humanity. However, the mixture of both means that she is willing to kill those trapped in altered forms rather than have them suffer such fates, but won't use her powers to reverse the changes, basically condemning those her technology can't fix. | |
