I think it’s mainly a matter of the audience’s preference and the artist’s style. I used to think that villains had to be handsome, and I don’t know why all animations consistently instilled this illusion in me. This was the case with "Brothers 4x4" that I watched since I was a child. Carlo of the Italian team in the World Mini 4x4 Competition, He is the most sinister and despicable person. At that time, I didn’t know why he didn’t hate this person very much. When his life experience was revealed, he actually sympathized with him very much. He would either win the game despicably or go back to pick up garbage. Maybe he was helpless in his heart. When Carlo I actually cheered with him when he won the second game of the finals. As the famous saying goes, the most charming villain turns out to be a fan of me.
Cell from the Cyborg Chapter of "Dragon Ball" explains what it means. I have become more handsome and stronger. In the second form, even Trunks can't beat him. Vegeta insists on it. Look at the third form, it's so good that it satisfies you and your son, and Cellul doesn't even bother to kill them after that. Mr. Akira Toriyama was also very satisfied at first and planned to customize Cell as the closing boss of "Dragon Ball", but the editorial department disagreed. Comparison revealed that Majin Buu is not as good as Cell in terms of personality and appearance in addition to his strength. And the popularity is not as good.
Aizen in "Bleach" still felt ordinary when he was the fifth captain wearing glasses. After he rebelled and went to Hueco Mundo, he completely changed his appearance. To become evil, he must first become handsome. Although personally For a long time, I didn't understand what Aizen's purpose was, but as soon as he appeared in this episode, I had to watch it, just to appreciate Aizen-sama's appearance.
There is one of the most stinking heroic spirits in "The Night of Fate". He is also very annoying and has a bad personality. This character is called Gilgamesh, nicknamed Jin Shining. Anyone who has watched any series of Fate will know it. This guy, despite all the bad things mentioned above, is so popular that he even ranks first in the world. Is it because of his good looks? Is it because of looks? Yeah?
The Akatsuki organization in "Naruto" is completely built according to the idol group. It is rare to see Kisame and Kakuzu, two guys who look like security guards, mixed in. Payne is handsome. , God Itachi is handsome, Scorpion of Red Sand is handsome, Deidara is handsome, the unified Xiangyun uniform, I feel that in reality, you can completely build a combination according to the dress, it is absolutely amazing.
Finally, let me give you another negative example, that is Blackbeard in "One Piece". Oda is really unconventional, and he doesn't even portray him with a high level of character. Every time he wants to Even if you pretend to be cool, you will be slapped in the face. You broke into a big prison, hahaha, and were directly killed by Magellan. The whole group was instantly killed. I thought I could pick up the bloody head of Whitebeard. I only survived by calling my father and begging for mercy. I just said that I was invincible after getting the double fruit. He was slapped by Sengoku and the whole group vomited blood. He was originally a tycoon, and all the navy and pirates were plotted by him. His style of execution was ruthless and bold, and he was often looked down upon by fans from all walks of life just because of his appearance. The above is purely a personal opinion.
