A really good one, especially considering his arc took so long.

The flip side is that he didn't actually murder anyone though, so not as bad a villain as the others

Yeah, his reincarnation made it hard to determine if it was two different people or the same person. DBZ having him fuse with Kami didn't help either.

Pretty sure they poked fun at it in DBZ Abridged too.

False. He was the hero all along.

Hannibal Lector ( sort of )



In the movies, he was given a pass for sure. He was transformed into a sympathetic character and that completely ruined him.

In literature however he always remained the ice cube he was in Silence of the Lambs.

The TV show Hannibal had it's problems but the character didn't. He was just as unsympathetic and charismatic in the show as he was in the books.

Elsa from Frozen.

Almost killed her sister twice and caused her to sacrifice herself again at the end to save her while triggering an ice age and eventual starvation for her entire kingdom before finally fixing things at the very last minute.

Goes on to be a hero to millions of little girls because she is really good at singing.

Apollo Creed goes from bad guy to hero. He has the most interesting arc of any Rocky character.


Does he?

He’s not really a villain. He’s an antagonist but he doesn’t do anything evil. shite, 2 of Rocky’s coaches are killed by other boxers.

He was the bad guy in Civil War. Got a pass for his actions in the 18 and 19 Avengers movies

That time Boone became a vampire in a teenage drama, and was the bad boy and was really mean. And then, just like that, he was the good guy banging the hot chick.

Spike rapes Buffy, and he is one of the single most popular characters on a show with a huge feminist fanbase.

Never forget that Luke Skywalker murdered 1,148,309 people when he blew up the death star in A New Hope.
