Something I kinda wish you’d brought up is…I don’t know if there’s a trope name, challenging the dreaded, wanting to see if they live up to their reputation. Like in most of those Z era Dragon Ball examples, Goku hears “Terror of a thousand worlds!” And goes “Cool! Let’s go fight him!” Or the numerous people and monsters Alucard fights in Hellsing because they want to take a stab at the vampire king. This is especially prevalent in video games, how many players will intentional challenge themselves to slay those sleeping dragons?

Anyone else hear Vergil’s theme from DMC 5 in their head at the oncoming storm?
