** ''WesternAnimation/PussInBootsTheLastWish'': Puss faces three antagonists in his pursuit of the Wishing Star: Goldilocks (and the Three Bears), [[Characters/PussInBootsJackHorner "Big"/"Little" Jack Horner]], and [[TheGrimReaper Death]]. Puss, Goldilocks, and Jack want to get the titular wish for their own selfish desires, and Death wants to kill Puss due to how much he disregarded his previous lives. In the end, both Puss and Goldilocks give up their wish, since their journeys through the forest as well as their CharacterDevelopment have made them realize that they don't need their wishes. As for Death, he comes to realize that Puss' journey has genuinely changed the cat's outlook on life and lets him live the rest of his days in peace. The only character who never gets any sort of redemption is Big Jack Horner, who revels in his vileness throughout the entire journey, to the point that the Ethical Bug serving as Jack's "conscience" eventually gives up looking for any good in him and decries Jack as a monster.

* Inverted in ''WesternAnimation/TreasurePlanet'' where BigBad John Silver, being far more sympathetic, is the only villain in the movie to actually be redeemed, while all of his ''henchmen'', especially his second-in-command, Scroop, are instead portrayed as irredeemable scumballs.

* ''WesternAnimation/KungFuPanda4'': While the previous films' villains [[RedemptionRejection refused to change their ways]] in their respective films, they were still shown to be complex and layered characters that could potentially be capable of change if they chose to do so. In stark contrast, [[BigBad the Chameleon]] is shown upfront to lack any of the sympathetic or honorable traits that her predecessors displayed, and the previous villains -- particularly Tai Lung -- quickly [[EvenEvilHasStandards take a dislike to the Chameleon]] when she abducts them from the Spirit Realm and steals their kung fu abilities. After hearing Po's speech about the importance of change - which the Chameleon dismisses -- and then seeing him go through the trouble of restoring their kung fu abilities in spite of their enmity, the past villains all [[VillainRespect bow in respect to Po as the true Dragon Warrior]] and willingly [[FaceDeathWithDignity return to the Spirit Realm]], while also [[DraggedOffToHell taking the defeated Chameleon as their prisoner]].
