Superhero/hero teams composed of these five characters:this is actually a broader trope
- Charismatic beefy main dude
- Similar dude but more rebellious and sneaky
- Technology guy
- girl
- comic relief
One character tends to be the protagonist (who can really be like anything!!), another, the “Lancer”, is basically the opposite of the hero I think, there's definitely a scientist involved usually, while there is a girl she's probably not the only one, and… pretty much anyone can be comic relief. Everyone likes comic relief- instead there's usually a brute strength-type guy

The girl typically is kind of the heart of the group. The heart can be male. There's also sometimes a sixth member and a mentor.Superhero/hero teams composed of these five characters:this is actually a broader trope

The main villain having the full potential to foil the good guy in a certain instant (the good guy most likely being trapped) but taking too much time to explain his plan for plot convenience and gives the hero a chance to escape.

One member of a group acting a certain way means the rest act the same.

The main villain having the full potential to foil the good guy in a certain instant (the good guy most likely being trapped) but taking too much time to explain his plan for plot convenience and gives the hero a chance to escape.Or a background character giving away the plot.
EXAMPLE:
*KATS (Karate At The Supermarket) Agent walks past*
Purple Tanooki: What if KATS find us?
Rainbow Dog: I'm pretty sure the sound of crashing shelves will attract passing police cars.
Purple Tanooki: And KATS will be caught red-pawed!
Rainbow Dog: And probably arrested.
(The plot of the film is that the KATS attempt to sabotage a supermarket, but the police hear them and arrest them)
That film doesn't exits BTW

If there's a fat character they're either a villain or comic relief- if not, part of their character arc is losing weight.
