Redeemed villains don't count. Once you cross the Moral Event Horizon, there's no turning back.


* ''Anime/HugttoPrettyCure'': Even if all the Criasu Corporation members [[spoiler: got redeemed in the end]], it can't be doubted that they did some horrible things along the way:
** If [[DarkChick Papuru/Pappuru/Papple/Pupple/etc]] didn't cross it before by [[BadBoss forcibly turning Charalit (who had been tortured in an unseen dark room for god knows how long) into an Oshimaida]], then she no doubt definitely crossed the line when she mortally wounded Ruru with an electromagnetic beam for disobeying her orders.
** Dr. Traum's crossing is either when he tries to murder Daigan, seeing him only as an asset, or when he freezes all of ''Pretty Cure'' spacetime.
** Bicine crosses it when he removes the gold chain that keeps Harry from turning into an EldritchAbomination.
** George has multiple potential crossing points. Was it when he revealed himself as the main villain to the Cures, including Hana, whose trust he had obtained earlier in the same episode? Was it when he cheated on his female minions or tortured Charalit? Was it when he performed inhumane and cruel experiments on Harry? Or was it any of the moments where he froze time throughout the series? Either way, he surely crossed it long ago.

Although ''Anime/PrettyCure'' makes it a point to give villains a chance, they still have those who don't get any.

Aiwarn has a HFT


** Any hope of Aiwarn joining a long line of teen-girl Pretty Cure villains who turned a new leaf (some even became Cures) - you know, [[Anime/FreshPrettyCure Eas]], [[Anime/SuitePrettyCure Seiren]], [[Anime/DokiDokiPrettyCure Regina]], [[Anime/GoPrincessPrettyCure Twilight]], [[Anime/KiraKiraPrecureALaMode Bibury]], [[Anime/HugttoPrettyCure Ruru]] - goes out the window when we learn that she's done stuff way worse than all of those people combined:
*** She turned the residents of Planet Rainbow into stone, including [[WouldHurtAChild children]], all because they refused to hand her one of the Princess Pens. And THEN she sold the valuables to fund her [[MadScientist unethical experiments.]]
*** She hacks into Planet Saman's computer systems and takes over the AI Mother. [[EvenEvilHasStandards Even Tenjo is surprised with what she is doing.]]
*** [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking She fuses all three major commanders including herself into one massive Nottoreiga against the wishes of the other two.]]

Inappropriate comments are essentially dick moves, nothing especially heinous. Though I don't mind a more heinous example for Director who's a Complete Monster. Some things/people have names. More copyedits.

we're really gonna put a joking comment by a teenager in moral event horizons huh guys


** Even ''Cure'' Marine crossed the MEH by asking the Desertrian crowd if they could destroy Middle School when Cobraja tells them to destroy Elementary School because they hate homework. Emphasis on "Cure" because they're the ones who must protect children from evil monsters when this one made such a sickening comment that goes against evervthing Pretty Cure stands for. Indeed Coffret was quick to call her out on that stupidity.

** George undoubtedly crossed it at some point. Was it when he revealed himself as the main villain to the Cures, including Hana, whose trust he had obtained earlier in the same episode? Was it when he cheated on his female minions or tortured Charalit? Was it when he performed inhumane and cruel experiments on Harry? Or was it any of the moments where he froze time throughout the series? Either way, he surely crossed it long ago.

** Speaking of HumansAreTheRealMonsters (no, Nightmare, Eternal, and Criasu don’t count because they can summon monsters) the next best thing for the franchise is [[StrawMisogynist Masato Aisaki]] who crosses the MEH the second he declares that only men can be heroes and [[StayInTheKitchen that women can only be protected]]. Since this is a show where girls [[spoiler:(until then, thank you Cure Infini)]] make up all of the major cast, it's very fitting to see a character [[WhatDoYouMeanItsNotPolitical demonstrate that misogyny is a special kind of evil]].

->''I wanted to take away the very source of hope [[spoiler:the princess]] stood for!

* In ''Anime/FutariWaPrettyCure'', [[RelativeButton Gekidrago trying to kill Cure Black's little brother in front of her,]] and Poisony not only mind-controlling ThoseTwoGuys into believing they are the Cures, but also into either attacking the real Cures or [[WouldHurtAChild deliberately putting themelves in danger so Honoka and Nagisa would get distracted in battle trying to save them]]. Both of these are not very impressive in scale compared to later MEH's in the franchise, but it was the first especially despicable act of villainy the franchise ever saw, and it's notable in that it resulted in Cure Black ''killing'' Gekidrago.
