What characters do you think are underrated?

I assume you mean South Park, in which case I have quite a few picks actually.

In my understanding "underrated" means "this character's impact on the show is disproportionate compared to their popularity in the fandom", which imo would disqualify most one-off characters. I'm gonna ramble for a bit under the cut

The answer I'm most confident about is Classi, she had a huge role in TFBW and helped resolve the conflict in season 19's arc, and yet I barely ever see any fanart of her!

Another character I almost never see fanart for is Mr. Adams, which wouldn't be that surprising if he wasn't Mike Makowski's stepdad, which I think has so much potential for both silly and serious fan-content. Speaking of vamp kids, I always found that One Grown Ass Man Vampire very memorable and funny too.

Scott Tenorman is featured in the highest rated South Park episode and is absolutely crucial to Cartman's character development, but fanart and fanfic featuring him is... rather sparse. Something something not shippable enough I suppose

Shelley has been getting more attention in the fandom recently, but she's still sometimes forgotten or demonized, especially outside of the tumblr fandom echo chamber. She deserves a spot here.

Alejandro is one of the few one-off characters that I actually think is somewhat underrated when compared to other one-offs, especially the "Foreign Kid" clique. He has surprisingly a lot going on and let's be real here, he's more of a Foreign Kid than Damien.

I had some empty space left in the corner of the canvas so I added Jimmy who has gotten a lot more fandom love in the recent decade so he's not quite in the same league as all the other characters here let's fucking goooooo On a similar note, I've also noticed that many of the adult characters have been getting more attention on here as well, good for them, good for them

any thoughts on Classi ?

Let's break down Classi. Or, ahem...

Classi with an I, and a little dick that hangs off the C that bends around and fucks the L out of the ass.

She has no pimp. She takes no shit. She's whipsmart. beat the shit of Nathan and saved Jimmy. She and Jimmy stayed on good terms - He takes her to his house in FBW and she's perfectly comfortable.

She doesn't lie to the kids or sugarcoat shit. If they wanted, Classi could fulfill the Chef role pretty easily - frankly explaining questions about relationships and sex.

Classi sends them on errands, which means she trusts them to succeeed. She treats them as capable little humans.

In FBW you help her out and afterwards she'll help you out as a summon. There was never a previous agreement she'd ever return the favor. She doesn't have to do that. Which means she lowkey appreciates New Kid + the Boys helping her out and saving her from the racist ass cops, even though she doesn't really vocalize it.

Her hair and outfit slay. She has a brand, complete with a logo and a car that I'm pretty sure is a reference to one of the most iconic black movies ever: Friday. (aka the origin of the phrase "Bye Felicia")

Do I like the fact that she is sex worker? It's complicated.

Classi doesn't roam the streets. If I had to guess, she is a classic Backpage girl. Soliciting online or through hookup apps. She's never hit or been assaulted that we know of.

Despite being a sex worker, she's not some sponge of black women's sexual trauma they wring out on screen for white consumption.

Classi is the only girl/woman in the game that fills the (honest to G-d) damsel in distress role. She's kidnapped by police and she's a victim of politice brutality, but she isn't a victim, you know what I mean? The boys focus a lot on helping her, Jimmy calls her a girl (emphasizing youthful feminity) and advocates for her safety. She's never the butt of the joke in FBW - She's the one who makes the jokes.

We don't even know why or how she got into sex work, I think the answer to that would color our perception of her more than anything. I'm sure everyone assumes she was forced into it by poverty or sexual violence, but I like to think she was just a middle class girl who needed money and liked the hustle.

She recognized the importance of free, independent news sources in a world that's increasingly spoon fed ads and propaganda - then smiles and asks for more. Suggests a level of intelligence and independent thinking.

I feel like some people would expect me to hate her but yeah, I kinda love her lol.

THE woman ever

[real-south-park-confessions]

Please tell me I'm not the only one who's bothered by little things like: Liane being bothered by Classi (did not think she had standards or does she think what she does is different?) or Craig (sometimes) acting OOC to Stripe (he likes us shoot at the poor things, thinks badly when talking to him just get his laptop, and technically calls it 'that) in TFBW. Please tell me I'm not alone?

CLAAAAASSI, with an I, and a little weiner hanging off the C that bends around and fricks the L out of the A-S-S . . . We’re family friendly here !
