The Cash Cow

Moooooooney.

The one who exists Purely For Profit. This is the perfect role counterpart of that UnTrash as it embodies it to the letter. Other roles like the Fan Favorite, Fan Service Doll, Mega Cutie, and Comic Relief can all take a good shot at turning themselves into the Cash Cow, although the remaining quality of their home series would ask them why. To be sure, the Cash Cow is a meta role that orbits around the concept of Fan Service. The audience can take home their own miniature version of their beloved franchise star all while ignoring the creative damage being dealt to what they cherish. The Cash Cow has practically no value in either a familiar or adventurous franchise. They provide next to no dramatic functionality, their journey-faring skills amount to a granule, and they overall reek of being a Useless Character. Whatever in-universe value the creators attach to the Cash Cow often comes off as a desperate excuse for critical viewers to not bash them to no end. Even if the Cash Cow is somewhat important to plot progression, the alert audience members won't fall for the trick. At the end of the day, the Cash Cow's primary objective is to churn out big bucks for their originators who've discarded the thought of the audience's human worth.
