Abstract: An extremely overpowered character/item who's sole purpose for existing is to easily beat/counter any obstacle put in front of them.
A Little Timmy Character (abbreviated as LT character in this) is a character in fiction who's purpose is to be powerful/more powerful than a previous powerful predecessor. Most LT characters are products of insecure people projecting themselves with OCs that can solo all of fiction, or bad authors creating a bad plot. The isekai genre is infamously chock full of LT characters, most of which being the "person who appears weak but is actually really fucking strong" sub-genre.
The naming derives from the power logic of elementary children, as almost all of their powerscaling arguements boil down to "nuh uh, because my character can actually _____ which just so happens to convienently counter your character's ______."
A good way to identify a LT character on the fly is to check two things: their role in the story and their powerscaling's simplicity-to-power ratio. However, this method can be unreliable if the character's reasoning for existence requires more research compared to the average read session, so take the results of this test with a grain of salt. It is heavily recommended to do your own research on the character's, well, character first.
Important note: Not all overpowered characters are Little Timmy Characters. No examples will be provided due to controversy with differing opinions :P

"Dude, Cortium is such a little timmy character. He can literally erase space and time passively. What an unbalanced result of poor writing."

Get the Little timmymug. The little Timmy effect is essentially the little Jimmy effect but it benefits a certain age group in general, so for example if a kid were to make a painting and it looks ugly as shit, and the older brother of that kid makes a fucking beautiful work of art the parent would most likely pick the little kids painting to keep him from balling his eyes out.
Brother: Mom look at this thing I made!
Little Brother: Look at mine!
*the little brother shows a disgusting piece of shit ever*
Mom: Hmmm.. I like you little brothers
Brother: Its the fuckin Little Timmy Effect.

Get the Little Timmymug. an occupationally obese, prepubescent or early teen, who acts edgy online, most likely because his mommy didn't make him pizza rolls for lunch
