Added DiffLines:
* FatalFlaw: As is the norm for ''Dragon Ball'' villains, {{pride}}. Van Zant's determination to kill Buu just so he can get all the victims for himself and lack of regard for the power discrepancy between the two both result in Evil Buu being born and killing him.
Added DiffLines:
* TheFatalist: Has no problem going on a killing spree because his victims are already destined to die when Buu destroys the Earth. {{Deconstructed|Trope}} because by shooting Bee and making Fat Buu ooze out Evil Buu, who in turn eats Fat Buu to become Super Buu and unleash the Human Extinction Attack, Van Zant hastens his own prophecy that Buu will destroy the Earth.
Added DiffLines:
* ItsAllAboutMe: He cares about nothing but his own opportunistic bloodlust. During his EstablishingCharacterMoment, he admits it's nonsensical for him to not kill if Majin Buu is, bragging "All bets are off now when I'm cashing my chips in". Eventually, he decides to kill Buu just to get all the kills for himself, uncaring of how powerful the latter is.

* 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.

* 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.

* 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.
