[QUOTE="ayase, post: 558405, member: 183"] As a less Nadia focused aside, I think [USER=159]@Professor Irony[/USER] was correct earlier in stating this particular villainous trio trope can be traced back to [I]Time Bokan [/I](I can’t recall any earlier examples though I’d be interested to know) though probably moreso via its sequel [I]Yatterman[/I]. It’s kind of amazing just how influential the Doronbo gang has been on subsequent media, not only the likes of Grandis & Co and Team Rocket but in western cartoons as well - Off the top of my head the villains of cartoons I watched as a kid like [I]The Smoggies[/I] and [I]Gadget Boy[/I] also fit the mould. Appropriately enough, it could perhaps even be argued it appears in a gender swapped form in [I]Dominion[/I] with Buaku and the Puma Sisters. [/QUOTE]
