A pattern with anime villains
I have noticed that there seems to be a trend that when individual underlings have episode arcs (Shittenou, Witches 5, Sailor Animamates) they end up dead and if only the underling group as a whole has an arc (Ayakashi Sisters, Amazon Trio, Amazoness Quartet) they are redeemed. Any theories as to why the pattern had this design?

Re: A pattern with anime villains
That is an interesting pattern. But we know Kaori, Eudial and Mimet are not redeemed and they have a huge arch each. Also Nephrite was redeemed and he had his own arch.
I think the anime just fell into the rythem of having villains be redeemed. Which is funny since everyone in season 1 ( except Nephrite) are not redeemed while future seasons feature multiple redeemed villains ( S being the exception)....But the manga has the Four Kings end up being good spirits with just about everyone else not turning good. The exception are the Amazon Quartet. |
