Dr Doom and the daughter of Reed Richards and Sue Storm, Valeria Richards.
Valeria considers him to be her uncle, and she’s one of the only people he genuinely cares about.
Yeah, but he’s always care for her and looked out for her, and she grew attached to him since she was a child, as he genuinely enjoyed being around her when she was a kid.
Dr Doom is the best villain, and I love him so much. He can be such a sweet guy, but will do anything to spite Reed, like being the godfather of his daughter
He has two. He adopted Lee as well for the sole purpose of screwing with Kazuya more.
Hell, he has three if you count Lars, but he didn't even know Lars existed for a while

Dr. Eggman and his daughter Sage. I love their relationship, I wish they had more screen time together though.

Even some of the heroes get his begrudging respect. In Frontiers (easily one of his most nuanced/sympathetic portrayals, but still), he calls Tails “Young Prower” and says Tails has loads of potential. Amy is described as clever and tenacious and he says she’s come a long way since they first met. He even calls Sonic’s speed impressive for an organic creature.
Is Jesse really an antagonist though? He’s the deuteragonist I’d say. And even from the perspective of Walter as the protagonist, Jesse is never really the main villain
Very true. I thought the comment was referring to Jesse’s soft spot for kids, but Walt’s soft spot for Jesse is a good example. The relationship is interesting compared to the others because it’s hard to tell how much is genuine love vs manipulation from walt
The original probably was, Jesse is definitely a bit of a villain but his desire for normalcy and his love for people like Brock and Jane is genuine.
I did a recent re-watch and you're absolutely right, he does fluctuate between genuine love and manipulation. Even hatred when Hank ends up meeting the white power folks. But he also protects him multiple times from people who would be just fine removing Jesse altogether. Almost like it's a "he's mine and I love him so I'm the only one allowed to play with him", and Walt is undeniably selfish.
Ehh…I am going to put a pin in that for now. We did see him swear on Ryan that he wouldn’t kill that one Vought employee then immediately went back on it. And in the most recent episode it seems like he’s manipulating Ryan’s sense of justice and actually helping people to twist it around into making him evil
Interesting. >!Did Homelander realize he genuinely cared for Ryan and do better, or did he just realize how to manipulate him the way he was manipulated?!<
Hmm…I think the second one seems more likely. We did see Homelander talking about the Seven becoming like gods to the people of Earth, and he and Sage were talking about starting civil warfare among the people and coming in and stopping it. Notice how Homelander encouraged Ryan to have that one intern(?) hit the director over and over again. Is that not a small scale version of Homelander and Sage’s plan?
Tbh I don't think he actually cares about Ryan. I think if Ryan went against him enough (and no one can blackmail Homelander to make him fuck off) he'd pop him like a grape.
(I haven't started s4 though so maybe I'm wrong!)
He doesnt really care about Ryan, he cares about himself. He wants Ryan to be an extension of himself instead of caring about who he is as an individual
He also took away Ryan's milkshake that one time, which is the most evil thing he's ever done
Nah. That’s only Ryan and only because he’s his son.
Remember when there was this teen that wanted to jump off and kill herself and he was just so mad that in the end she went back on it and he forced her?

The Central City Rogues have 2 rules:
No murders
No kids
I’ve heard someone compare Flash and Superman like this: morally they’re the same, but people look up at Superman like a god or some other idealistic figure. Meanwhile the Flash is seen as that really helpful neighbor you can always rely on.
Yeah. The only real problem is that sometimes Reverse Flash, Zoom, or Godspeed will show up and engage in city-wide “Tag for Keeps” but as long as you’re not directly involved with the West-Allen family you’ll be fine

technically more of an anti-hero nowadays but should still count
Depends if Sans, Flowey/Azrael or Chara count, as they have technically killed a maximum of one kid per game, but if you count every reset (Oh and I guess genocide Frisk counts too, as some of the enemies are kids)

Ashad, The Lone Cyberman from Doctor Who.
Bit of a weird example because he's such a criminally underused character but he's essentially this homicidal cyborg who unlike pretty much every other cyberman willingly volunteered for the process of being converted from his original human form; only for it to fail and his conversion be left incomplete.
As such he tries to embody what it is to be a cyberman by acting like an emotionless, cold and calculating machine but this is clearly not the case as their are plenty of times his emotions are on clear display. Something he's self aware about yet still tries to reject.
The most interesting example being in his debut episode when Ashad discovers a crying baby which had been hidden to keep it safe. Completely alone with nothing to stop him it's expected that The Lone Cyberman will kill or abduct the child. However, instead he delicately picks up the baby and rocks it gently to sleep before putting it back where he found it before moving on.
No one else sees this but they did hear the baby cry and then abruptly stop so assume the worst. As such, upon finding out Ashad hadn't harmed the baby the doctor tries to use this appeal to his humanity and sense of mercy, only for him to brush her off and dispassionately say that "it wasn't a threat". Of course, this convinces the doctor but not the viewer since he clearly acted in a very paternal manner towards the child.
Unfortunately, this hasn't really been explored any further since Ashad was unceremoniously killed a few episodes later. However, this is Doctor Who we're talking about so hopefully a future writer might decide to bring him back and develop this very unusual cyberman further.
Silco, but just to his adoptive daughter Jinx. I wouldn't say he was a great father to her, but he did geniunely love and care for her to the point that he'd sacrifice his goal for Zaun just to protect her >!and even comfort her as he was dying from a wound she accidentally inflicted on him!<

Michael Myers (mostly) never bothers children, always leaving them be
Doesn’t really count.
Michael had tried to kill Jamie, his niece in the Thorn Trilogy, comic book expansions to the H20 continuity depict him harming and killing children, and the Blumehouse Trilogy had him explicitly kill kids.
However, the Rob Zombie version of Michael does have a soft spot for young children.

Deathsaurs from Transformers Victory
He even has his own son to boot
Many believe the Bite of 87 to have actually been an attack on an adult. FNAF 2 establishes the animatronics' warmness towards children, so it'd be a bit weird for the animatronics to do a total 180 and attack a kid in the same game where that is established.

I kid you not, Deathsaurus' original profile says he routinely spares the children of the worlds he conquers because he doesn't think it's right to kill them.
Riddick.
He stands up for Jack and saves her in Pitch Black, and it's mentioned in canon thst John's lured him out by executing children unless he surrendered himself.
Clearly his childhood was nightmarish.

Nice pfp.
God bless The Enclave 🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅
But in this one, he *did* kill kids or was implied to.
Well they WERE bullying the ugly kid and with Jason’s origin you can put two and two together and see he WONT tolerate that crap

Yeah, but he’s always care for her and looked out for her, and she grew attached to him since she was a child, as he genuinely enjoyed being around her when she was a kid.
I like it when villains are good with kids, it’s nice :)

I swear the only city in DC worth living in is central, the villians are all chill and their main hero is everyone's buddy
I’ve heard someone compare Flash and Superman like this: morally they’re the same, but people look up at Superman like a god or some other idealistic figure. Meanwhile the Flash is seen as that really helpful neighbor you can always rely on.
Yeah. The only real problem is that sometimes Reverse Flash, Zoom, or Godspeed will show up and engage in city-wide “Tag for Keeps” but as long as you’re not directly involved with the West-Allen family you’ll be fine

Doesn’t she have like 50 of her own? Of course somebody with that many kids must have a soft spot for children.
Shes a terrible parent though
I mean that’s why she had 50, more chances of getting it right
Tama moment Child powerful **FEAR HER**
Abby is the bright light of that movie honestly Protect that child, if she dies in the sequel I am gonna riot
Abby was a consistent delight throughout the whole film. Honestly, top tier FNAF character, which is really impressive when she's competing against Hutcherson's Mike Schmidt and Lillard's William Afton

Stalker from Warframe
RAHHHH JADE LIGHT BIRTH MINIGAME RAHHHH (god what the fuck was that quest)
Peak, it was peak
it was VERY good, and Gianni matragrano voicing the stalker made it peak.

The TV Tropes term is [Morality Pet.](https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/MoralityPet)
https://i.redd.it/hbp1w7guhi9d1.gif He's really nice, but he feels pressured to do his thing.
He kills children more than anyone in undertale.
Tbf, he doesn’t want too and he believes it’s the only way he can save his people, but still pretty messed up
Depends if Sans, Flowey/Azrael or Chara count, as they have technically killed a maximum of one kid per game, but if you count every reset (Oh and I guess genocide Frisk counts too, as some of the enemies are kids)

OPs own example with Amity is an antagonist that turned into a protagonist, so we’ll take it.

Bit of a weird example because he's such a criminally underused character but he's essentially this homicidal cyborg who unlike pretty much every other cyberman willingly volunteered for the process of being converted from his original human form; only for it to fail and his conversion be left incomplete. As such he tries to embody what it is to be a cyberman by acting like an emotionless, cold and calculating machine but this is clearly not the case as their are plenty of times his emotions are on clear display. Something he's self aware about yet still tries to reject. The most interesting example being in his debut episode when Ashad discovers a crying baby which had been hidden to keep it safe. Completely alone with nothing to stop him it's expected that The Lone Cyberman will kill or abduct the child. However, instead he delicately picks up the baby and rocks it gently to sleep before putting it back where he found it before moving on. No one else sees this but they did hear the baby cry and then abruptly stop so assume the worst. As such, upon finding out Ashad hadn't harmed the baby the doctor tries to use this appeal to his humanity and sense of mercy, only for him to brush her off and dispassionately say that "it wasn't a threat". Of course, this convinces the doctor but not the viewer since he clearly acted in a very paternal manner towards the child. Unfortunately, this hasn't really been explored any further since Ashad was unceremoniously killed a few episodes later. However, this is Doctor Who we're talking about so hopefully a future writer might decide to bring him back and develop this very unusual cyberman further.
 He's an antagonist in the first movie (Gamera)
Gamera he takes kids into his van touches them like no other can please don't tell on gamera (deathbattle has this stuck in my head)
 Silco, but just to his adoptive daughter Jinx. I wouldn't say he was a great father to her, but he did geniunely love and care for her to the point that he'd sacrifice his goal for Zaun just to protect her >!and even comfort her as he was dying from a wound she accidentally inflicted on him!<

This is mostly true, but he did kill multiple children during the Alexandria bombing in Season 8. As he is a major hypocrite with most of his actions.

Doesn’t really count. Michael had tried to kill Jamie, his niece in the Thorn Trilogy, comic book expansions to the H20 continuity depict him harming and killing children, and the Blumehouse Trilogy had him explicitly kill kids. However, the Rob Zombie version of Michael does have a soft spot for young children.

I love how Bowser can easily go from fairly intimidating to incredibly fit for a marketable plushie due to sheer cuteness. Usually when placed near Bowser Junior, but not exclusively. He's a treasure.

The bite of 87 would like to speak with you
Many believe the Bite of 87 to have actually been an attack on an adult. FNAF 2 establishes the animatronics' warmness towards children, so it'd be a bit weird for the animatronics to do a total 180 and attack a kid in the same game where that is established.
