Sometimes they're attacking sorcerers that attacked them first, but other times they're attacking [[WouldHurtAChild children]] or [[ActualPacifist Druids]] that have never harmed anyone

* ''Series/TheFallOfTheHouseOfUsher2023'': The first few minutes of the first episode tell the audience that all six of Roderick Usher's children are dead; the rest of the series reveals in flashbacks that none of them were good or nice people, which makes you feel slightly less bad that [[spoiler: their father and their aunt made a literal DealWithTheDevil in which they would get disgustingly rich by creating the opioid crisis, and in exchange, they and all their descendants would all die at the same time.]]

** ''Series/PowerRangersRPM'': The GreateerScopeVillain organisation Alphabet Soup is basically no more after Venjix's successful attack on the world with it's members either dead or imprisoned. Yet given that they kidnapped and lied to innocent children for being smart and pretty much caused Venjix's threat level by refusing to let Dr. K stop it, nobody's going to miss these guys or care what happened to them either way. Venjix himself become this first when he is crushed in his final form by the falling Corinth control tower [[spoiler: and later as Evox in ''Power Rangers Beast Morphers'' when he is destroyed by the rangers corrupting him entirely with human DNA.]]
** ''Series/PowerRangersDinoCharge'': As the most evil of the main villains, surpassing even Sledge, there's not much sympathy to be had for Lord Arcanon when Sledge and Snide betray and kill him, considering he's responsible for the destruction of Heckyl's homeworld Sentai 6 and twisting two good guys into monsters who they are forced to share a body with. His lackeys who also get killed at the same time also count as this.:
*** Singe who, in addition to assisting Arcanon with his goals, manipulates Heckyl as a double agent, callously endangers innocents in his first attempt to kill the rangers, had Tyler corrupted with a computer virus, tried draining the rangers powers with the Zotak Rings, and having a petty rivalry with Fury.
*** MOTWs Conductro and Screech who under Arcanon's orders, create a music box made to zombify all of Amber Beach and use the whole population as human shields.
** ''Series/PowerRangersNinjaSteel'': Madame Odious became the big bad of the second season after backstabbing and causing the death of her boss Galvanax, a complete jerk who (seemingly) killed a young Brody's father and then enslaved him on his ship just for the Nexus Prism and was very cruel to his subordinates, even Ripcon and Odious herself. Due to this, not even the surviving Galaxy Warriors were particularly heartbroken about his death and even Cosmo Royale never once questions Odious taking over his show and attacks.

** ''Series/PowerRangersLostGalaxy": Captain Mutiny Mutiny, a slaver pirate who is indicated to have literally worked his slavers to death and tried to subject the Terra Venture to the exact same fate, is killed alongside his crew and ship by Trakeena as soon as he steps foot on the main galaxy. Unceremonious as it was, he definitely had it coming.
** "Series/PowerRangersLightspeedRescue": Queen Bansheera. Being sealed away forever in your own tomb where the spirit of her former minion Diabolico ensures she suffers as her own horde of demons attack her for eternity is a [[FateWorseThanDeath harsh way to be defeated compared to being destroyed. But since she also planned to unleash said horde to the world in addition to other crimes, and his more-than-the-usual-villain cruelty towards not just her subordinates, but also her own loyal son, nobody (not even Vypra who returns to be the main antagonist of their teamup with Time Force) is set to lose sleep over her fate.
** "Series/PowerRangersWildForce":
*** Viktor Adler, who freely turned into the next Master Org out of petty jealousy so he can murder Cole's parents and then try to do the same to Cole himself when he was a baby, gets thrown off a cliff by Mandilok who was resurrected by Toxica and Jindrax whom he frequently abused. While he does return to life as a vessel for the original Master Org to use, when Master Org is finally destroyed for real and Adler with it, Cole is the only one who mourns the late doctor in the end.
*** Mandilok himself was no better than Master Org when mistreating Jindrax and Toxica and ended up using the latter as a HumanShield, only to end up being killed himself by the revived Master Org. Unlike Adler, there's no special grave for him.

** "Maternal Instincts" plays with this: the victim, who browbeat her HenpeckedHusband into stealing a baby for her, is deserving of this status, but when the now-teenaged boy's parents learn of who killed her, they express that they want her killer to go free. Unfortunately, said killer is just as nasty as she is, being a manipulative and arrogant doctor who killed her in front of the boy as a child after she refused to continue hooking up with him, knew his circumstances and still left him with his "mother's" corpse instead of returning him to his family, and sat on the information for fifteen years.
