  • Heroic Spirit
rdfs:comment
  • Heroic Spirits (英霊, Eirei?, localized as "Legendary Souls") are spirits of heroes who achieved great deeds in life, having become objects of worship after their deaths.
  • The spirit of a true hero is an awesome thing. The heroes can do anything if they are driven enough. They will not surrender, they will not stay down. Death, The Virus, Wangst, they are all to be shrugged off when the chips are down. No Despair Event Horizon for them. Now this seems to be strictly idealistic, but get an Anti-Hero against the ropes, and the same spirit will show up, even if manifested in different forms. A Super-Trope involving: Compare Humans Are Warriors, Heroic RROD, Honor Before Reason. Not to be confused with the Servants. Or literal Heroic Spirits.

abstract
  • Heroic Spirits (英霊, Eirei?, localized as "Legendary Souls") are spirits of heroes who achieved great deeds in life, having become objects of worship after their deaths.
  • The spirit of a true hero is an awesome thing. The heroes can do anything if they are driven enough. They will not surrender, they will not stay down. Death, The Virus, Wangst, they are all to be shrugged off when the chips are down. No Despair Event Horizon for them. Now this seems to be strictly idealistic, but get an Anti-Hero against the ropes, and the same spirit will show up, even if manifested in different forms. A Super-Trope involving: * The Anti-Nihilist (Life is a meaningless struggle? Fine, he'll create some meaning himself.) * Determinator (if it's the hero) * Plucky Girl - The Deteminator's younger / more traditionally feminine Distaff Counterpart; the Action Pollyanna. * Doomed Moral Victor (if only the spirit holds, but not the body or the good luck) * Heroic Resolve (The inspiration a hero recieves from seeing someone else in danger) * Heroic Second Wind (the second wind he receives after he is beaten to a pulp by the bad guy) * Heroic Willpower (fighting off, controlling, or otherwise retaining sense of self when infected by the The Virus or something similar.) * Nerves of Steel (This hero's mind is as heroic as his heart) * The Eternal Churchill (the heroic spirit of the entire human race) * What You Are in the Dark (The heroic spirit that endures even if nobody would ever know that it didn't) * Worth Living For (As it gives the hero a reason to keep fighting) Compare Humans Are Warriors, Heroic RROD, Honor Before Reason. Not to be confused with the Servants. Or literal Heroic Spirits. Examples of Heroic Spirit include:
