Zanzenburger 05/20/21 11:52:09 AM #1:	As in, they are not a loser or some normal nobody that is only important because they are a protagonist. I got to thinking about this because media tends to explicitly focus on the underdog, or the person who is seemingly invisible or hated in school, work, or the community. It would be interesting seeing works where the popular person faces obstacles that are not necessarily tied to being popular. Bonus points if the plot doesn't solely focus on said popular person learning compassion and humility and/or giving up the popular life. The only example that immediately comes to mind is Clueless. Any others? --- Congratulations! Your post was deemed response-worthy. <cite>Zanzenburger posted [p:954112201] in What are s...
