>>18239971sorry meant to use this picture
>true beloved protagonist>has a tragic villain arc>a redemption arc right afterwards
>>18239973No, that'd be the irredeemable, cartoonishly evil villain.
if nobody takes the role back that does seem logical
>OP character appears out of nowhere>presented as the antagonist of the arc>causes catastrophic damage>is forgotten and pushed into irrelevance for every following arc
>gets robbed, looted, house burned down by a coalition of the most evil human empires>struggles and overcomes addiction, starvation, and ignorance. builds back what he lost>revenge arc is ongoing and involves afflicting the villains with more potent versions of weapon they tried to use against the protag: predatory loaning, fentanyl, COVID, outsourcing.
>comedic relief
>The quiet kid who seems kinda nice but keeps an automatic pistol in his backpack
>weird bonus story at the end of the volume>completely detached from the rest of the story>gets discontinued and then awkwardly integrated into the rest of the story
>could have been so much more>still the greatest
>character that peaked and was very important in the early arcs but fell off at some point and became a joke
>>18240173that applies to both
>sidekick, superficially presented as a pussy>is actually incredibly cool and a fierce fighter>was the largest threat in one of his antagonistic arcs, took many heroes to defeat him, as well as many tries>almost every member of the cast owes something to him

>stealsWhere do you think they got their money from?Britain basically gave it to them on a silver platter.>You want independence? Sigh OKAY THEN>You want tariffs while we have no tariffs which is slaughtering our old fashioned industries desperately in need of investment? Sigh, FINE.>You want investment capital to start up new companies that will outcompete ours in scale and tech? Ok how much do you need? These emerging market interest rates are better than our domestic ones anyway. America grew in basically the best possible situation a new state had ever been founded in. Weak neighbours, geographically isolated from the strong ones; loads of land and resources; and most of all, major powers like Britain who treated them like brothers even when they blatantly disliked Britain and were no longer even "English" beyond. Britain's thinking "this is my descendant" while their elite becomes increasingly German and Irish
>>18242137>>18242175It's the Dutch colony of New Netherlands (founded circa 1614) which became New York after Robert Nicolls claimed it for England under the orders of James II in 1664, just 4 years after Charles II's restoration to the throne following Cromwell. The Dutch East Indies Company that it was founded under largely neglected it (which is why I said it could have been so much more) during the 30 years between its founding and British acquisition, BUT when the Brits did take over, Nicholls didn't lay siege to it and wreak havoc on the colonists that called it home. Instead, things carried on as before, and even more importantly, he allowed the Dutch merchants, captains, sailors, etc. that were all routine visitors to the New York harbor ports and those further up along the Hudson to continue on as before - meaning the intricate network of trade between the Carribean, continental Europe through Dutch re-exports, and the eastern coast of North America (and the interior, through the fur trade) now included Virginia, the British Islands of the Carribean, and England proper. By keeping their Dutch cultural legacy, including the Five Boroughs that are still central to NYC today, the future US benefited astronomically - hence "still the greatest". >>18242182>>>/int/nigger
>>18242830I know it's a dutch colony in north america, I am just asking where did you come from. You seem to post about New Amsterdam every time you can.
>>18242860I came from your mom's house. >You seem to post about New Amsterdam every time you can.Because it's the most kino colony of the 17th century.
