![]() ![]() Gandalf is dismayed by the new orc-human hybrids he's created, Eomer is incensed by the peace treaty he negotiates with Rohan's ancient rivals the Dunlendings, and Central warns Saruman that if he doesn't keep his operations covert, then the Ents will soon rise up and level everything he's built. Many otherwise-good characters are very perturbed by the rise of Saruman of Many Devices, thinking that he's a rival dark lord as he was in canon.In the end, though, the prospect of no-one being left behind is too tempting for the majority of children to ignore, and Severus gains the upper hand. The House proceeds to split between those who are still aiming to become Death Eaters, versus those who stick by Severus and his reform. Lily, in particular, doesn't know whether to believe her ears, but really wants to. When Severus very publicly declares that he will not become a Death Eater or follow them, that he is leading Slytherin House in a different direction, everyone around is shocked. Even within Slytherin, Sebastian Urquart is unhappy about Severus driving all of the outcast or vulnerable members of the House into the Death Eaters' arms (since they all assume that this new policy of protection and inclusion is coming from them). In The Peace Not Promised, Lily and the Marauders are thoroughly scared when Slytherin House unites around Severus Snape, who decrees that the House must all support and protect each other, and who is known to be affiliated with the prospective Death Eaters.Kaoru specifically often takes responsibility for mistakes that his subordinates make, for which they are grateful. Virgin Love, Kaoru and Chiharu both overwork their subordinates when they want to get things done, but are liked for the fact that they are effective and work equally hard. His neighbors still take issue with a country ruled by an undead, of course, but are hardly in a position to remove Ainz from power. Instead, they are visibly surprised when he brings stability and peace: everyone has enough food to eat, jobs are readily available or created, the undead handle all the paperwork and all races are able to coexist as equals. Virtually everyone, from his new subjects to every other nation in the New World, expects the Undead King to demand massive sacrifices in his name for some evil ritual or another, or launch a genocidal campaign against any who do not submit to his rule. In Overlord (2012), Ainz quickly proves to be this after he takes over the city of E-Rantel and founds his Sorcerer Kingdom.However, once he won the election, he immediately resigned as his entire campaign was just an elaborate troll. He appeared to be a Token Evil Teammate to the rest of the Zodiacs running the Hunter Association, and seemed to be on his way to becoming a President Evil. In Hunter × Hunter, this ends up being the case with Pariston Hill, Arc Villain of the Election Day Episode.Given the characters' ages, it is quite justified. She does appreciate underwear, she just wasn't comfortable with the idea of such young girls showing their underwear in public. In Chu- Bra!!, Tsukamoto-sensei finally is shown in this light.See also Benevolent Dictator, also a person whom the audience would not expect to rule well. ![]() If their redemption occurs once they are no longer in power, it's Break the Haughty. Note this only applies to characters who redeem themselves while in power. Therefore, the Bait And Switch Tyrant may become a regular as opposed to when a Tyrant Takes the Helm the tyrant is almost always intended for only a single episode or Story Arc. When this occurs in a TV series, it will usually be done to introduce the new boss. It is not unknown for him to criticize his predecessor harshly - how else could all his subordinates be so bad? - in order to get them to straighten up. Given enough Character Development, the Bait And Switch Tyrant may soften up or even develop an odd friendship with the rest of the cast even when his onerous ways get good results he may discover that some of them are unnecessary, or relax them for special occasions. When the Tyrant's methods really are as onerous as they seem at first but get results that the underlings love, expect them to make satisfying the hardass a point of pride and brag about it to those with less rigid leaders. In this case, the other characters will eventually quit rebelling against their new leader and try to adapt to the new management style. It occurs when a character who at first appeared to be a tyrant actually turns out to be a pretty decent person or at the very least someone with a few good qualities. This is a common subversion of Tyrant Takes the Helm. ![]()
