Bad or lazy writing. Do I need to say more? Haha.
Honestly, I think the thing that is killing me right now is the “genius” or “predictive” character. You know, the guy that knows everything that’s going to happen and makes the perfect counter plan. It’s best (by best I mean worst) when there are two or more of these characters fighting. Here is an example:
“Muhahaha, I’m evil and I knew you would attack me, so I used a spell that made anyone who attacked me die!”
“I’m the hero, and I knew you would use that spell, so I made your henchmen attack you while using an illusion spell to make you think that it was me attacking you!”
“Well, I knew you would try to trick me, so I used a bigger illusion that made you think that I killed my henchmen when he is really right behind you!”
“Ha! I knew you would do that too, so I put a lion behind me that is eating your henchmen!”
“Exactly as I planned! My henchmen is a werewolf that eats lions!”
“Perfect, since I predicted that, I poisoned the lion!”
“That’s why I made an antidote that cures your specific poison, which I predicted even though there are millions of poisons that you could haves used!”
“Checkmate, I made a better poison that can’t be detected and isn’t poison until you take an antidote for my other poison, it will kill your henchmen when you try to cure the other poison!”
“Nooooo! How did you know to do that?”
“I locked eyes with you two episodes ago and just realized it from your smile.”
Hope you get the idea… it’s horrifying to read stuff like this. For some reason it seems popular with both heros and villains right now.
