Line 275:
* [[Doctor Doom]] in Season 5 of ''[[Spider-Man: The Animated Series]]''. He's created a utopia in what is otherwise a wasteland and helped out one of the heroes by improving his powers. True, he has ultimate power over the place, but there are no signs that he has abused it. To be fair, he later obtains power he can't handle, but it's not like the heroes knew that would happen.
* ''[[Ed, Edd 'n' Eddy]]'':
** It has the unique distinction of having Designated [[Villain Protagonist]]s, in the form of the Eds. They [[Butt Monkey|always lose and end up being treated like crap]] by the end of nearly every episode, and Eddy is theoften onlythe one that evertruly deserves any of it, even if they didn't even do anything that bad. Add to this the fact that most of the rest of the cast [[Karma Houdini|gets away with]] being [[Jerkass|insufferable little assholes]] who are unconditionally mean to the Eds with [[Law of Disproportionate Response|little]] or [[Kafka Komedy|no]] provocation.
** Though Eddy's main schtick is [[Ambition Is Evil|scamming the other kids and being exceptionally greedy]], he's often forced to pay the price for attempting legitimate business ventures. More often than not, he (or the other Eds) put a lot of effort into these businesses. An example of this is an incredibly elaborate theme park ride that showcases the sort of [[Bamboo Technology]] we might expect from the future, not unlike the kind people ride frequently at Disney World. {{spoiler|They eventually manage to break out of their role in [[The Movie]].}}
* There's a few cases on ''[[The Fairly OddParents]]'' when characters are designated villains as the result of a wish (Jorgen in "Action Packed", the popular kids in "[[Halloween Episode|Scary Godparents]]", as well as Timmy himself in "Nega Timmy") or the circumstances, as Tootie in "Dread and Breakfast".
