Character shields (also known as plot armor or plot shield) are plot devices in films and television shows that prevent important characters from dying or being seriously injured at dramatically inconvenient moments. It often denotes a situation in which it strains credibility to believe that the character would survive.
"The art is nice, but the concept is obviously pretty stupid. Hell, just the fact that they're using the most broken character with plot armor as thick as fangirls' raging hardons for him, from Naruto, against someone who was shown to only be a mediocre bender at the beginning of the series (the form of Zuko used here) should tell you something."

Get the Arizona State University mug.Arpi is so many amazing things.She is the most wonderful person and will become friends with you instantly.She is always trying to make you laugh and smile.She is really shy but once you get to know her you'll be surprised. She doesn't know that she's really beautiful even though she is, oh yes and she's super kind. She would never hurt anyone not even a bitch. She tells you all her secrets the second you meet her. Once she falls for a guy she never stops loving him. Arpi is also really smart but doesn't show it much. She spends her days laughing and smiling and her nights crying. She always picks herself up after she falls, even when no one is there to help her.
"Why is she eating like she just saw Michael Jackson rise from the dead riding in on a wild pig while singing his next hit?" "Oh Arpi"

Get the bts army mug.Person of the 'alternative society' bent who would claim a desire to 'smash the system'. Their chosen means of smashing the aforesaid system would be to get really drunk and/or stoned and mouth-off raucously and belligerently to those already aware of our non-working class hero's political ideology, usually to the strains of seriously non-commercial underground sounds.
