* DisproportionateRetribution: After being restored by Buu following Piccolo's attack, Babidi vows to make Piccolo and the kids suffer for it and so has Buu kill countless people cities at a time in an attempt to find them (he intentionally delays wiping out the planet for this mind you). When Goku asks him to stop, he then declares that he'll have even more people killed.

Trope was cut/disambiguated due to cleanup + covered by Karmic Death


* AssholeVictim: He's easily the ''least'' sympathetic of Buu's victims unless you count Van Zant.



* HateSink: Like Raditz, Babidi seems to be made to be as unlikable as possible and thus all the more satisfying [[AssholeVictim when Majin Buu kills him]]. He's a sadistic, utterly callous villain who's also [[StupidEvil an idiotic]] DirtyCoward, in stark contrast to the much more likable Majin Buu and Dabura. He's up there with Frieza in being utterly despicable without even the excuse of being born evil, and as horrible as Frieza was, even he was competent and had EvilIsCool going for him. Babidi is just a BigBadWannabe.

* KickTheSonOfABitch: Not a single damn was given once Buu killed him, even though Buu went completely on a rampage without anyone to control him.



* AssholeVictim: In spite of their AlasPoorVillain moment and the fact that they were brainwashed the entire time, it's noticeable that when Bulma uses the Dragon Balls later on the same day to bring back everyone who died and wasn't evil they're not among those resurrected, since they were only brainwashed due to ''willingly'' going to Babidi for power.



* AssholeVictim: Alongside Babidi, he's easily the ''least'' sympathetic of Buu's victims.
