Misuse of the page/link, Hijacked By Ganon would apply if Ouranos were previously a villain in the story. Or if Oranous was built up as a new villain, only to be hijacked by Apollo or Kronos (i.e. previously established villains).

* FreudianExcuseIsNoExcuse: With the ''possible'' exception of eating them alive, Ouranos was as nightmarish to Kronos and his siblings as Kronos was to his sons. Fighting his father off was an experience that Kronos never really recovered from and his terror would eventually seep into all of his motivations and interactions with his subjects. As Hera points out, this DOESN'T excuse his being monstrous to everyone around him.

**[[spoiler: Zigzagged as it turns out: While she wasn't happy about how it played out, Metis knew what her fate would likely be from the beginning and had more or less accepted it. Her only request was that Zeus use her and only her powers and to leave Hera alone. While Zeus doesn't treat Hera the way Ouranos treated Gaia, Kronos treated Rhea or even how he treated her mother, Zeus was still at the beginning of the story siphoning Hera's Fertility Goddess powers without her knowledge.
