If any of his minions so much as thought of disobeying him, he would kill them on the spot. Nearing defeat, he would use the sacrifice of his most loyal general, Golden Mask, as a way to both escape and carpet-bomb Tokyo, causing untold destruction, not even caring about the death of Golden Mask.

Many of his forces are either comprised of the champions of those worlds he'd already conquered, forcing them to fight for him lest he finish the absolute destruction of their homes. Not that he intends to ever let them go back, as his true form is the size of a planet, and he eats the planets he conquers. He also uses innocent beings from the worlds that he’s conquered and forces them to fight for him by forcefully mutating them into his soldiers against there will.

- Tran is a Vyram executive who delights in tormenting others. Viewing humans as playthings that exist to entertain him, Tran frequently sends out Dimensional Beasts to massacre humans for no other reason than to amuse himself. In one particular scheme, Tran uses Ant Bazooka to brainwash a group of humans into becoming ravenous gluttons who devour everything in sight, including live animals. After aging himself up and declaring himself "Emperor Tranza", Tran tortures the other Vyram executives until they submit to him as ruler.

- Kaitou Sentai Lupinranger VS Keisatsu Sentai Patranger: Zamigo Delma, introduced by freezing and seemingly killing multiple innocents, became the Lupinrangers' most hated enemy due to their loved ones being among his victims. Serving the Interdimensional Crime Group Gangler as an informant on the human world, Zamigo fed information to various Ganglers to aid them in their criminal activities. Though his freezing ability didn't actually kill the people he abducted, he murdered several of them and turned them into human disguises to provide to other Ganglers, uncaring if they're used to hurt billions of lives. Throughout the series, Zamigo has supplied lucky charms that turn multiple victims into plants; sent a spy disguised as the Patrangers' old friend to frame and kill Noel Takao; held the Lupinrangers' loved ones hostage to force Kairi to duel him; and had his boss Dogranio Yaboon trap him and the Lupinrangers in his safe so his battle with them can continue uninterrupted. An utter Sadist who's motivated purely by his own entertainment, Zamigo is willing to backstab his own allies and even threaten his boss just to keep toying with Lupin Red, with both teams holding him responsible for the suffering of many people as a result of his role in the crimes committed by the Ganglers.

- Mashin Sentai Kiramager: Emperor Yodon is the ruler of the Dark Empire Yodonheim and responsible for the complete ruination of countless worlds. Originally a lowly snake monster, Yodon crafts an invincible mask and initiates his conquests by slaughtering everyone in sight, consuming their remains to become the most powerful being in the universe. Eventually setting his sights on Crystalia, Yodon curses the Crown Prince Oradin's loving younger brother Galza into a hate-filled monster in order to get him to betray Oradin when the invasion starts. During the final battle, on the verge of defeat thanks to the Kiramagers exploiting how his secretary Yodonna shares a body with him, Yodon kills her, telling her he only cares about himself and she was always a weakness.
- Ohsama Sentai King-Ohger: Dagded Dujardin is the leader of the Galactinsects and self-proclaimed "King of the Universe". Growing bored of his duty as a Destroyer Deity with the role of balancing the universe, Dagded turned to manipulating the inhabitants of each planet into turning on each other in massive and bloody civil wars so they'd wipe themselves out. Setting his sights on Tikyuu once its first human inhabitants arrived as refugees from another civil war he provoked on Earth, Dagded manipulates the royal lineage of Shugoddam by forcing their kings to do war with the peaceful Bug Naraku lest he destroys the entire planet. Centuries later, after Jeramie ascends to the throne of Bug Naraku and makes peace with the other kingdoms, Dagded orders the genocide of the entire nation, with only Jeramie, Gerojim, and a few Sanagim surviving by hiding away. After hero Gira is revealed to have been created by him, Dagded attempts to brainwash Gira so he can be reduced to a soulless living weapon for his own uses. Uncaring about his minions when they are defeated for good, Dagded only takes action once the Ohsama Sentai have defied him too much, spitefully attempting to give them and their planet a Fate Worse than Death, then freeze Tikyuu solid in its devastated state to add it to his personal collection of similarly ruined worlds.
