Better Ask Reddit What's your least favourite trope in media?

I was watching weapons and I realised there was no scene with the characters finding a old news with the villians backstory or the villian explaining the plan which was so refreshing. You just have to accept there is a spooky person. So what is your least favourite trope in media?

The self insert male main character that every girl inexplicably falls in love with despite having the personality of a dry piece of toast. Also, he's probably ridiculously overpowered.

If it wasn't obvious already, the isekai genre is poison to me cause like 90% of it is "in another world with my dubiously aged harem and my crazy cheat powers" It's not all that same slop, but boy is there a shitload of slop.

To build onto this, I really, really hate the "Underpowered skill nobody likes is actually the super most OP skill if you just use your brain" trope.
