Jack horner. He's a mother fucker with no good things about him, but he's written so well. Literally a perfect villain

u/Naps_And_Crimes avatar

It's not his fault he grew up with a loving family a thriving business and money useless crap like that

u/Wolveyplays07 avatar

Such a tragic backstory😔

u/CT-5995 avatar

Literally every character in the “you missed the point by idolizing them” starter pack

u/Ozuk_true avatar

The only one that I am even close to idolizing is Electra heart (an alter egos by the music artist marina and the diamonds) but mostly just the style, like, damn I love that aesthetic, she is the reason why I am not cis

Careful, someone might take this as "celebrity turned someone not straight."

Homelander

Horrible person but very well written

I'm suprised he has a cult following online

Patrick Bateman. He can make you laugh one instant and disgust you the next. Great character but a POS person.

Even ignoring the murders…

He’s just such a jerk. At least Hannibal Lector is polite

u/IntentionNecessary77 avatar

I think that’s the part incels need to learn, just because the hyper misogynistic sigma male is well-written does not mean he needs to be the idolized…

I watched the movie after seeing all the memes and I was so creeped out by his behavior the entire movie. Christian Bale is a phenomenal actor

So many people need to hear this, legit had to explain to a person that just because The Joker is my favorite character doesn’t mean I’m like an incel who wants to go commit crimes or whatever.

i feel this. don’t know why it’s so hard for people to comprehend. then again our country is mostly just idiots

Val is about to get unceremoniously fucked

Wait till Ozzie hears how he treats his employees

Oh now I NEED to see Ozzie come in to pimp smack the fuck out of Val in season 2, as long as angels gets his own licks too at least

u/Low_Distribution3524 avatar

I am reading a fan fiction right now and Valentino did meet Ozzie and Ozzie RIPED Valentio’s BALLS and…other part right off…WITH HIs HANDS 🤣🤣🤣

WE LOVE TO HATE THAT MOTHERFUCKER

u/WolfPony64 avatar

I really don’t understand why people hate on the people that like him. They aren’t condoning what he does neither do they agree with his actions. They just like the moth pump because he is a good villain. But yet everyone simps for Alastor as if he ain’t a psychopath himself

u/MrSpiffy123 avatar

If I had to guess, it's because those people were already looking for excuses to hate fans of the show, and Valentino gave them an outlet

Liking Light Yagami as a character ≠ Mentally unstable / Edgy 14 year old. He's just a well-written and complex character that people love to downplay

"By the way, I might have left something in your room. Let me know if you find it. You're not scared of centipedes, are you?"

“Jax!! That is my worst fear WHY WOULD YOU DO THIS???!!!!”

"Oh my god, his character changed. He's such an asshole to the main cast."

Tf you mean he changed?! He was always an asshole...

u/theuntitledproget avatar

I think the reason people think this is because they watch too many knock-off versions of the show

Even in the knockoffs I saw he was a sexier asshole, not less of an asshole. Idk what rabbit hole Twitter stuffed their head in

More replies
u/Brilliant-Noise-2398 avatar

Exactly

u/Demonskull223 avatar

Arguably episode one made him a loveable asshole. Episode 2 is just him being the worst kind of person.

More replies

Yea, that’s honestly why I like him his sass is hilarious. However I do think there’s a difference between being a jerk and being a horrible person.

I think the reason why people think that he changed was cuz how much MORE of an asshole he was. like we all knew he was an asshole but no one knew he was an absolute dick. and ya know what? I love It

If anything, we saw more nuance in episode 2. He loves blood, violence, and explosions, and he's been stuck in a place where that never happens for years. Candy Kingdom is endless tedium for him, and tedium is not good for mental health. He's cracking up, but if he gives into it, he Abstracts, so he has to keep pushing the sardonic act.

I also saw him pushing Pomni as an attempt to toughen her up, which, to be fair, she needs to survive, dick move or not. He probably feels like he can't afford to care (God knows how many friends he's seen die), but he can shove newbies in the right direction.

Ah, shit. Ever realize you're too invested in a character? 🥲

More replies

Agreed. He's still my favorite character, and if anything he showed more emotion in the second than the first (the half second clip right before the funeral).

Darth Maul. Great character. Literally kills a village to draw out Obi Wan.

Similarly, Darth Vader. I think he's also a great character. But definitely not a good person.

u/That_0ne_Gamer avatar

I would say palpatine and dooku. Palpatine being a master manipulates both sides of the clone wars and hides te fact that he is a sith lord under the jedis noses and corrupts the chosen one, he is the devil of the star wars universe. Dooku on the other hand became disillusioned with the jedi and the republic, he saw how the republic only served the core worlds leaving other worlds in poverty and the jedi was complacent in this status quo. He made a deal with the devil to create a new government that will serve the people better and in doing so became corrupted and betrayed.

A good example is Jax (TADC) and Adam (Hazbin hotel)

I feel Valentino is more hated but still a great character
