Evil Is Cool / Western Animation

Go To

  • Adventure Time:
    • Although Ice King isn't much of a terrifying menace like the other villains on this page, he's an Evil Sorcerer with power over ice who rules over his own kingdom with penguin minions. Not to mention that he's so eccentric and antisocial it's hilarious, and he even has a tragic backstory.
    • The Lich definitely qualifies. Hes a Walking Wasteland monstrous Undead Abomination whose terrifying yet mixes this with a surprising amount of eloquence and intelligence.
  • The Beast from Over the Garden Wall is one of the scariest, if not the scariest villains ever put to a Cartoon Network show, and the fans love him for it, since he's basically a hybrid of the Operator and the Devil, with a haunting Villain Song to boot.
  • The DC Animated Universe is full of cool bad guys.
  • Gravity Falls:
    • Bill Cipher manages to be both terrifying and entertaining at the same time. Beneath his bizarre sense of humor and simplistic appearance lies a highly competent villain who is all-knowing and manages to successfully torment the heroes multiple times. To this day, Bill remains as one of the most popular characters in the series.
    • .GIFfany is also very popular with the fandom, due to being a Cute and Psycho Yandere with an Animesque design. She's also capable of escaping her home game in order to possess animatronics and other electronic devices, ensuring that the current target of her obsession can never escape her.
  • Kim Possible:
    • Shego lives for this Trope. For starters, her backstory reveals that she started as a hero but turned villain since evil is cooler. And then she does, in fact, become the coolest person in the show.
    • Every time some sort of Applied Phlebotinum brings out goofy old Ron's Superpowered Evil Side, he becomes so damn awesome at being evil (while still being kinda goofy) that he actually scares Shego.
    • Senor Senior, Senior was just a bored billionaire until Ron gave him the idea that it would be really cool if his mansion were an actual supervillain lair.
    • Ron often parodies this trope when faced with Deadly Invention of the Week.
      Ron: That would be so cool if it wasn't going to hurt us.
      • Not to mention the episodes where he becomes evil. When this happens, he is quite possibly the most badass character in the entire show.
  • Code Lyoko: XANA is both this and one of the most terrifying villains. His extremely dangerous, over-the-top attacks and his victories in almost every season finale (and in others episodes too) certainly makes him enter this trope. But ironically, two of his Dragons are even cooler when evil:
  • Ōban Star-Racers: Canaletto, the true antagonist of the series and easily the strongest example in the entire show. As an ancient entity who once served as Avatar, he's as monstrous as they come with his plan to destroy the universe. And yet his insane manipulation skills, theatrical and oddly charismatic personality, creepy as hell design, story stopping powers, and Colin Murdock's cold yet hammy performance make him one of the best things about the show.
  • Mighty Max: the archvillain Skullmaster was voiced by Tim Curry. Luckily, for the rest of the cast, he only showed up in about 5 episodes. But in those episodes, well, he rules hell, and has demon and zombie armies at his command. Oh, and he can outsmart The Smart Guy and beat the Big Guy in a straight fight. Oh, and all of his convoluted plans succeed...except for the last one. Maybe.
  • The Big Bad of Teen Titans, Slade, is the most utterly badass character in the show.
  • Megabyte from ReBoot. While fairly average throughout the first season, in subsequent seasons, he became increasingly hardcore, with impressive plans and still enough time to hand the heroes' asses to them in occasional fights. Being voiced by the late Tony Jay doesn't hurt, either.
  • Futurama:
    • You're watching it, right? The show that does not advocate the cool crime of robbery!
    • Bender is a guy who is loved in-universe and out, by everyone, despite being a hedonistic thief and sometimes a murderer. For example, in "Hell is Other Robots":
    Leela: Bender, we didn't mind we didn't mind your drinking, or your kleptomania, or your pornography ring.
    Zoidberg: In fact, that's why we loved you!
  • On the Halloween Episode of The Fairly Oddparents, every kid wanted to dress as the Jack O' Bots, four villains from Crash Nebula, since the bad guys' costumes were the coolest.
    • In an episode where Dark Laser tries to get Timmy to be his apprentice, he grants Timmy a suit that allows Timmy to use his Force-like "dark powers". Everyone he talks to, including Francis and Trixie, observes that he looks cooler while wearing it, and its abilities allow Timmy to circumvent the limitations of fairy magic. No wonder Timmy keeps the suit (for emergencies) at the end of the episode.
  • David Xanatos from Gargoyles, who manages to be both really cool and really fascinating.
    • Thailog. He actually outwits Xanatos, and any time he appears with another villain almost always has him pulling Eviler than Thou on them.
  • This trope might as well be renamed "Star Wars: The Clone Wars Syndrome", thanks to the jaw-droppingly long list of menacing, badass, and sympathetic antagonists, both the returning ones from the movies and newly created for the show. Count Dooku, Asajj Ventress, Cad Bane, Admiral Trench, Pre Vizsla, Bo-Katan, Savage Opress...the list goes on and on. Even the one-shot antagonists like Commander Sobek and Riff Tamson are cool.
    • Darth Maul deserves his own spot on this list. They took one of the movies' biggest Flat Characters and give him the depth, as well as the menace, to justify that terrifying demonic-looking character design. And his lightsaber duels are widely considered to be some of the best in the whole show, if not the franchise.
    • Darth Sidious accomplishes the rare, remarkable balance of being both utterly loathsome and amazingly cool. The series justifies how effortlessly he manipulates the Jedi Council throughout the whole prequel trilogy. Oh, and he also got to hand every other villain on the show their asses at one time or another.
  • Its Sequel Series Rebels is no slouch either in this regard:
    • The Grand Inquisitor, who the staff specifically created with the intent of making a villain who was both menacing and challenging. They succeeded. Same goes for his successors, the Fifth Brother and the Seventh Sister.
    • Grand Moff Tarkin, whose arrival proved that the show was more than capable of going into darker places, and handed the heroes a defeat on more than one occasion.
    • Darth. Vader. Played by James Earl Jones himself. What else can you say?
    • Clone Wars fans rejoiced at the return of Darth Maul. As did everyone else.
    • Grand. Admiral. THRAWN. Legends fans completely lost their minds when they learned that Thrawn was coming to the show, and those expecting him to be just as badass and ingenious as he was in Zahn's books were not disappointed. Combine that with Lars Mikkelsen's sexily-smooth voice-acting and a chilling musical theme and you have one of the best cartoon villains of the modern age.
  • Care Bears (1980s): For some older fans, the main villains of the Nelvana series and movies are more entertaining than the Care Bears and Cousins.
  • The Dreamstone falls under similar territory. The fanbase largely favors Zordrak and the Urpneys over the cutesy residents of the Land Of The Dreams. Granted, for the Urpneys, it may be more a case of "Evil Is Funny".
  • The Spectacular Spider-Man:
    • Green Goblin either in costume or as Norman Osborn is a frighteningly competent and a dangerous adversary who is Laughably Evil while Norman is the unflappable Man Behind the Man.
    • Tombstone, who's essentially this adaptation's version of The Kingpin. Not only is he in-charge of New York's criminal underworld, but he disabuses Spidey's belief he's a pushover by laying him flat on his back within seconds of meeting him. Throughout his appearances, Tombstone shows intelligence, bravery, style, and enough standards/pragmatism to remain a deadly foe and Magnificent Bastard.
    • Hammerhead is quite interesting as a middle-man for Tombstone and (later Goblin) who shows some Evil Virtues (namely loyalty, perseverance) and the animation where he goes into his famous headbutting move is genuinely cool and compelling. Add in that he dresses like a classic '30s gangster (complete with vintage car), and you have a memorable minor villain. The fact that he and Silver Sable are exes makes him pretty interesting.
    • The Sandman gets this especially in his final appearance where he really shows off his powers by attacking an oil tanker in the ocean and does by converting himself into a moving sandbank (lampshaded by the ship captain noting that the beach is coming to them), and the battle with Spider-Man features an entire forest of fists jutting out of the ground, showing the true potential of his powers in a way that Spider-Man 3 didn't do. The fact that he reveals heroic qualities by saving some of the sailors in that attack only makes it cooler.
    • The Venom symbiote becomes self-aware and fights the entire Sinister Six by itself and wins and then provides Peter a Battle in the Center of the Mind that is genuinely compelling and suspenseful. And after bonding with Eddie, Venom wholly falls into Creepy Awesome territory, uncaring about money or power and being solely hellbent on ruining Peter's life while having clever plots (especially in the "Human Development" arc) and complete immunity to Spider-Sense. Eddie having a sadder and much more complex history with Peter helps too.
    • Doctor Octopus starts out as a pawn in Norman's schemes but eventually becomes much more independent and actually runs his own schemes from within prison walls. He's also Affably Evil, as he's good friends with the other Sinister Six members (especially Vulture and Electro) and once kindly allowed two elderly women to run away to safety before fighting Spider-Man. Oh, and he has a coffee mug that says "evil genius".
  • Victor Veloci, the villain of Dino Squad, is seen by many of the show's few viewers as the only interesting character.
  • Avatar: The Last Airbender;
    Zuko: WHY AM I SO BAD AT BEING GOOD?!
    • Koh the Face-Stealer was also pretty cool.
    • The Dai Li!
    • The Ember Island Players pretend to depict Team Avatar as good, but really want you to root for the villains. As a result, Fire Lord Ozai looks cooler in the play than he does in real life.
  • The Legend of Korra:
    • Amon. He's voiced by Steve Blum and therefore has a deep voice that he uses in frightening threats, a cool and scary mask, doesn't flinch when fire blasts into the room he and his mooks are in (incapacitating them) and can resist the assault of a powerful rogue bloodbender, something only an equally powerful waterbender has been shown to do. Finally, he absolutely terrifies Korra. A guy who claims to be a non-bender manages to terrify the most powerful bender in the world. Just as she's starting to get her confidence back, he ambushes her and delivers a Breaking Speech so effective that she breaks down into tears afterwards. He achieved true Magnificent Bastard status in record time. It took only six episodes to achieve it and he's only had a major part in THREE!
    • His Mooks, the chi-blockers, also count. Not only do they look cool, but are also some of the most competent and dangerous mooks ever put into Western Animation. They're like an army of Elite Mooks. Two of them can put up a strong fight against two very powerful benders.
    • Varrick in the show's second season, surprisingly. At first appearing to be nothing more than a Cloud Cuckoolander, and a downright hilarious one at that, but The Reveal that he was a villain turned him into such a Manipulative Bastard that it made him even more appealing. Suffice it to say he was far more interesting to watch then the shows actual villains that season.
    • The Red Lotus from Book 3; criminals who all possess a form of bending that is impossible or unnatural under normal circumstances, their combined strength is enough to challenge even the most powerful fighters in the world:
    • Kuvira the Final Boss of the series also deserves mention as well since she became beloved in the fandom thanks to the trailer from Book 4 alone and the first episode of the season cemented her from then on. Admittedly she's a bit of a Base-Breaking Character with some members of the fandom but for others in the fanbase she's still quite beloved for her numerous badass feats (hey when you can go toe to toe with the Avatar and win and your finishing move in the series is to attack the Heroes city with a giant mech you definitely deserve to be on this list).
  • As mentioned above under Film, the Decepticons in most Transformers franchises fall under this, as they tend to have more distinctive personalities than the heroic Autobots.
    • Of note is their leader, Megatron, in any incarnation. He's usually depicted as an imposing, badass, no-nonsense megalomaniacal leader who rivals (or surpasses) Optimus Prime in power, though his various incarnations emphasize some traits and downplay others. Though the original Megatron loses points for being a General Failure and for his alternate mode being a tiny handgun, he still has a ton of admiring fans, and has been depicted as more threatening (with more imposing altmodes) in later G1-based continuities.
    • Also, G1 Megatron's Leonard Nimoy-voiced alter ego Galvatron and, as mentioned above, his Tyrannosaurus Rex (later dragon) Magnificent Bastard successor from Beast Wars, also called Megatron.
      • G1 Galvatron managed to amass a sizable in the Marvel Transformers comics by asserting himself as virtually unbeatable, his popularity leading to his Joker Immunity for most the comic's run, and the sheer number of things he survived arguably added to his appeal due to how unkillable it made him seem. All this in spite he was FAR more evil than his cartoon incarnation.
    • Shockwave, also across his various incarnations, is a coldly logical Mad Scientist who's able to, and in some cases willing to, throw down with Megatron and live.
    • Predaking from Transformers: Prime is one of the most powerful Transformers in the series, period, and has an awesome black dragon for an alternate mode. The only thing that could beat him in a straight fight was Unicron.
    • Two words: Soundwave superior. He's been the most popular Decepticon since the first series, And it was taken up a notch in Transformers: Prime in terms of design. He's popular mostly because he's so powerful and savvy that he could take down Megatron in a one on one fight and win. However, he prefers to stay out of the line of fire and take care of the Decepticon missions from a safe distance so he'll have a higher chance of winning. To further this trait, he doesn't even do any dog kicking or have fun performing evil. It's just business.
    • Beast Wars:
      • Blackarachnia is very popular amongst the fanbase — like she says, she's hot, poisonous, and deadly. (Also, a Femme Fatale with the sort of body most fanboys only get to look at, that might also have something to do with it.)
      • Other popular Predacons include Megatron, Inferno, Tarantulas, Quickstrike, Rampage, and Waspinator.
    • The villains always have cooler names. The Autobots have "Optimus Prime", "Bumblebee", "Ironhide", "Ultra Magnus", "Trailbreaker", "Cliffjumper", "Bulkhead", "Wheeljack", "Smokescreen", and "Blurr", but how do they compare with Decepticons "Megatron", "Starscream", "Devastator", "Demolishor", "Frenzy", "Bonecrusher", "Barricade", "Blitzwing", "Shockwave", "Skullcruncher", "Ruination", "Predaking" and..."The Fallen"?
  • Heloise on Jimmy Two-Shoes is undoubtably the most popular character on the show. The sheer number of evil tropes that apply is staggering.
  • Rick and Morty:
    • Rick is undoubtedly the Villain Protagonist but he's so clever, cunning and Crazy-Prepared that you root for him instead of the villains trying to give him his just desserts.
    • Evil Morty is one for being one of the very few Mortys to be a genius and outsmarts the Council of Ricks, the Shadow Council of Ricks by becoming president, and our Rick, "The Rickest Rick" and the part of the Multiverse keeping their Ricks as the smartest in their universe.
  • An in-universe example: in one episode of The Simpsons, Bart dismisses the entire genre of Christian rock because "everyone knows the best rock groups are affiliated with Satan."
    • Despite being a minor recurring character on the show, Sideshow Bob has a big fandom thanks to (in addition to being an unhinged attempted murderer) being a genuinely talented actor and singer (voiced by Kelsey Grammer) with a Freudian Excuse (years of being abused while working as Krusty the Klown's assistant).
  • My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic, any significant villain that appears at the start or end of a season:
    • Nightmare Moon in the pilot. While not especially interesting personality wise, fans loved her design, hamminess, and that despite being a Starter Villain was reasonably savvy.
    • Discord from the start of the second season, a manipulative Reality Warper that has touches of Creepy Awesome through Mind Rape and Crazy Is Cool through the his sheer hilarity.
    • Queen Chrysalis at the end of season two- she's a G-Rated succubus with shape-shifting powers who looks like the demonic lovechild of a zombie pony and a giant insect. She manages a Near-Villain Victory after singing one of the best Villain Songs in the show.
      • Chyssi comes back in the Season 6 finale, and does it again! Not the song part, but the near-victory part, and she also manages a very creepy Dramatic Entrance. It looks like something out of a horror film.
    • King Sombra, while a Base-Breaking Character due to his lack of personality, is this a portion of the fanbase for his menacing design, competence, often applied the use of horrifying Black Magic that meant earned him a Near-Villain Victory despite spending most of his screen time as a looming background menace.
    • And then there's Lord Tirek, who starts out weak and helpless, only able to absorb the magic of one pony at a time, he manages to outwit Discord and make him have a Face–Heel Turn, steals the draconequus's magic, fights Princess Twilight in a fight that looks like something out of Dragonball Z and ends up defeated by being essentially sent to Tartarus, which seems to be the pony equivalent of Hell.
    • And then there's Starlight Glimmer; firstly, she's the unicorn leader of a town of ponies she's brainwashed into giving up their special talents. Then we learn that she's a mage powerful enough to equal Twilight Sparkle in combat. Then she actually manages to escape the ending! She appears in the background of several episodes after, establishing that she's not just a Revenge Before Reason villain, and that her Roaring Rampage of Revenge will be something special, indeed. And it is. In the finale, Starlight fixes a time travel spell Twilight messed around with three seasons ago and attempts to Ret-Gone Twilight's friendships. She ends up creating a series of increasingly Bad Futures and is only stopped when she agrees to a Heel–Face Turn.
    • A hypothetical one as she only appeared in a dream, but Celestia's Superpowered Evil Side, Daybreaker. Imagine Nightmare Moon with more spikes and flame motif, whose radiance can and will reduce everything to cinders, plus a high dose of Evil Is Hammy, and you get the idea.
    • Season 8 introduces us to Cozy Glow, a cute little filly... who is actually a Manipulative Bitch and has plans to permanently drain all of Equestria's magic. In doing so, she traps the Main Six in Tartarus, Starlight in an energy bubble, and turns the students of the School of Friendship against Chancellor Neighsay. The only reason her plan fails is because of the Tree of Harmony's last-second intervention, and even then, she seems to take her defeat fairly well.
  • Sonic the Hedgehog (SatAM) gives us possibly the most evil incarnation of Robotnik ever, and also one of the most popular. Being voiced by Jim Cummings (1952) helps.
  • Tangled: The Series:
    • Cassandra. Cool earthbending-like powers, glowing blue hair, a snazzy Form-Fitting Wardrobe (which is black) and a BFG? What more needs to be said? Granted, perhaps having a built-in fanbase from her good-guy days could have something to do with it.
    • Hector has quite a few fans who find him cool, which isn't surprising given his striking golden eyes, Ax-Crazy personality and the fact that he has a pet rhino. That he rides on. He's also the first antagonistic member of the Dark Brotherhood that the heroes encounter.
  • X-Men: The Animated Series: Many of the villains, especially the bigoted ones, just fall into Hate Sink. Apocalypse on the other hand is an unapologetically theatrical would-be mutant overlord who chews the scenery every single time he shows up while plotting the destruction of mankind and mutantkind alike. He's also easily one of the most powerful characters on the show, such that it takes the entire X-Men team to even slow him down.
  • Kaeloo: Mr. Cat may be a sadistic and Ax-Crazy Jerkass and Villain Protagonist, but he owns many cool weapons (like guns, chainsaws and bazookas), he is both incredibly smart and incredibly athletic and does cool things like single-handledly stopping a Zombie Apocalypse. It's taken to the extent where not only the fans, but even the characters in-universe think he's cool.
  • Codename: Kids Next Door: Cree Lincoln. She's got awesome battle armor and near-unmatched fighting skills.
  • Arcane:
    • Silco has proven to be quite the enthralling villain to watch. His suave demeanor, intimidating nature and high level of intelligence have gained him a pretty decent following.
    • Sevika has also become pretty popular on account of her design (especially her Shimmer-enhanced mechanical arm), the physical challenge she poses to Vi, and having a fair amount of villainous swagger and character depth. Many fans have called for her to become a Champion in League of Legends, even suspecting she might be the new support character planned for 2022.
  • Castlevania (2017).
    • Dracula. I mean, c'mon. It's not just Dracula, but Castlevania Dracula. The addition of a very sympathetic backstory for his villainy certainly doesn't make it any harder to be on Dracula's side.
    • Isaac is a badass and skilled Forgemaster who serves Dracula with loyalty and efficiency, even deciding to raise his own army once his service to Dracula is done. Thanks to an incredible voice performance and a sympathetic motive, he's considered by many to be a highlight of the series.
    • The Council of Styria (Carmilla, Morana, Striga, and Lenore) are very popular with the fanbase due to their teamwork, cool designs, and varied personalities. Many have praised them as a very unique variation on a Decadent Court and love the way their strengths make up for each other's flaws. Season 4 exacerbated this, with Carmilla and Striga both getting cool fight scenes that show off that they're not all talk, and Morana and Striga being the only antagonists in the show who Know When to Fold 'Em.
    • After two seasons of him enduring torture and being ineffective, getting to see Hector finally show his utterly fantastic stuff as a plotter and remind everyone that he is a threat is nothing short of awesome, even if his endgame is to revive Dracula.
    • It's telling that fans utterly rejoiced at seeing none other than Death in the show's final season, looking absolutely awesome and manipulating people to his own ends right under their noses, not to mention being voiced by Malcolm McDowell.
  • Accidentally happens in VeggieTales with corrupt chocolate factory owner Mr. Nezzar in the episode "Shack, Rack, and Benny."note  He performs a Villain Song demanding his workers reject morality and worship a giant chocolate bunny representing himself. "The Bunny Song" is meant to be blasphemous—the three heroes are visibly uncomfortable watching him—but it just so happens to be one of the most catchy songs ever written for the show, resulting in little kids singing "I don't love my mom or my dad, just the bunny...I won't go to church, and I won't go to school/ That stuff is for sissies, but bunnies are cool!" Parents naturally wrote to complain, so the animators had to rerelease the episode with different song lyrics to downplay the blasphemy.
  • Seraphim from Blood of Zeus. Cool name aside, is a handsome looking demon with incredible powers, has a bident whose movements he can command, and rides a winged lion.
  • Schoolhouse Rock!: The Pool Cat from "Naughty Number Nine" may be a complete and utter Jerkass who gets no comeuppance for tormenting an innocent mouse, but it's hard to deny how awesome he is with his snazzy, Minnesota Fats-inspired design and being able to circumvent television mandates regarding smoking.
  • The Legend of Vox Machina: The move from Actual Play web series to slick animation has done wonders for many of Vox Machina's foes.
  • Several examples from She Raand The Princessesof Power:
    • Catra, whose interesting and rounded character traits, cleverness, and combat skill rendered them among the most popular characters in the show even as her villainy comes to make her miserable.
    • Hordak is a fresh, pragmatic take on the Evil Overlord who has a cool voice and an intimidating design. He only became cooler with the revelation that he's a seriously determined individual and that he had Hidden Depths.
    • Double Trouble, a non-binary shapeshifter and master actor, who relishes their role as an agent of chaos with pure, sadistic glee and ends up one of the only characters to never truly be defeated.
    • Horde Prime exemplifies this more than any other character in the show, partly because he's the one character in the show to be completely irredeemable. He's the kind of evil espouses the traits that made Emperor Palpatine and Thanos great villains, namely the former's cold, calculating, efficiency, not to mention his ruthlessness, and the latter's imposing figure with Dark Messiah characterization and his menacing Badass Fingersnap. As such, while the other villains are gradually humanized, all of Horde Prime's screentime is devoted to making him as despicably awesome as possible, all delivered by a chillingly effective Cold Ham performance that Keston John effortlessly distinguishes from Hordak.
  • From Class of the Titans:
    • Cronus is a suave, controlled gentleman who defines Faux Affably Evil. He also has a Sinister Scythe with an amazing number of powers.
    • Out of all the minions Cronos recruits, Sybaris is among the most popular, primarily because she is given a sympathetic backstory (which is based on real myth, if considerably watered down to make it kid-friendly), has a terrifying voice, and comes incredibly close to actually successfully killing one of the heroes, along with getting a great fight scene with Hera.
  • The Amazing World of Gumball: Dr Wrecker aka Rob became this after becoming the show's Big Bad, due to his complexity, tragic backstory, and being a genuinely menacing villain when he gets serious. It also helps that he's responsible for the show's most serious episodes.
  • Amphibia has several cool villains:
  • Masters of the Universe: Revelation has a few:
    • Skeletor, of course. His performance by Mark Hamill was well-received, his powers are awesome as usual, and while he doesn't get much time to shine, when he returns from his seeming death, he takes the Power of Grayskull and becomes a god! Definitely a solid showing from the self-proclaimed Lord of Destruction, especially one who (in the original franchise) lived only to get made a fool of by He-Man every week.
    • Scare Glow was well-received in his brief appearance due to his imposing nature, voice, and awesome fight scenes. Many called his fight with Teela, as duplicates of He-Man and herself respectively, highlights of the show, noting their gorgeous animation and his brutal deconstruction of her.
    • Evil-Lyn was was already well-received in Part 1, but she absolutely reclaimed the "evil" part of it in Part 2, when she turns on Skeletor and becomes a bigger threat than he ever was, claiming the Power of Grayskull, before having a lengthy and constantly escalating brawl with Adam, Skeletor, Orko, and even a Sorceress Teela. The fact she's a remarkably complex character doesn't exactly hurt either.
  • Masters of the Universe: Revolution continues the trend:
  • Vinod Chanda from Pantheon. Between his cool design, creative use of his UI powers, and moderately sympathetic goals, it's hard not to like him even if his actions are horrifyingly destructive.
