My favorite is Bog king from Strange Magic - Has a song talking about how evil he is. But all he does is prevent the spread of dangerous mind control magic, and quarantine people under the effects of said magic. Yes he greatly annoys people doing so, but honestly? If I get hit by a love potion, please quarantine me.

    Melkior/Morgoth, they saw that Arda was a deeply flawed creation and attempted to correct it before existence was sung into being.

    After the fact their actions are certainly viewed as evil by the world they tried to change but had the rest of the Vala joined his song the world simply would have been different, not worse.

    Megamind. Dude raised in prison and bullied his whole life, he just want attention from Metroman. Once he got the attention of Roxanne the act basically stopped.

      He did more-or-less kill, and then steal the identity of, the museum guy. He’s not a paragon of virtue, either.

    Literally Satan.

    Among his greatest sins: trying to be a bro and let Adam and Eve know that they were naked in some perv’s garden

    Edit: come to think of it, it’s not entirely accurate, as I don’t think Satan ever claims to be evil. But there’s a lot of anti-Satan propaganda in the Bible.

      TV show Lucifer is a fun watch. The Devil gets tired of running Hell and decides to relocate to LA.

          More like a latte move.

          Because you can’t get a good latte in Hell and he’d have to move to get one and…

          Laugh damn your eyes, laugh!

        It would be so much of a better show if it wasn’t such a copoganda. The writing is great, actors are great, but their insistence to suck cops dics and portray the police as this noble organization that is making the world the better place one brutalised civilian at a time is just tiring.

          Get over yourself. If you can suspend your disbelief to watch a show about the Devil running a nightclub, you can watch ‘copaganda.’

          You remind me of the people who complain about bad language in rap music; if you’re going to be offended by something, it’s your job to stay away from it.

            nah, it’s a legitimate complaint, and exactly the reason I stopped watching after a couple episodes. They portray cops like they’re “angel helpers” and it just reeks of bootlicking bullshit. The main character is Lucifer Morningstar, or the guy who’s main schtick is questioning authority, and yet he’s 5-0’s best friend. It completely destroys the idea behind the show, when the obvious corrupt organization is never taken to task. Atlanta shows cops as they are, this show is just copaganda.

              It’s a TV show, produced to sell advertising in the USA.

              You might as well complain about the lack of vegan options at McDonald’s.

    Gentle Criminal

    Ð poor guy always wanted to be a hero and is basically ð showcase example of how badly a well intentioned mistake can ruin someone’s life.

    Luckily he got ð protag punch of friendship and goes on to help save ð entire world, but he literally made his initial career being an internet celebrity self declared criminal.

      Hate to break your heart over this, but it ain’t gonna happen. Give up on your dreams of arbitrarily changing orthography with an inconsistent look to the past, and realize that we have “th” in place, which was already taught to English speakers, and is present on every keyboard.

      I got two languages on my phone, and I’m not about to install the goddamn Icelandic keyboard so I can triple-tap past Japanese and type some sort of bullshitty shortcut to “th” which were already present on my second keyboard, English.
