Line 14:
** Rather horribly averted in the film ''The Last Name'', in which he {{spoiler|writes his father's name into the Death Note in order to stop it being analyzed. It doesn't work - and what's worse, Soichiro gets to watch while he does it. [[Even Evil Has Standards|Even Misa was horrified at that and broke down in tears]]. And just when we thought it couldn't get worse, it did: Light ultimately dies in his father's arms, [[Freudian Excuse|begging him to believe that he acted as Kira to put justice into effect]].}}
* ''''[[Pokémon Special]]'s'' version of Giovanni, with {{spoiler|his son Silver.}}
** [[Sure Why Not|Game Freak gave Giovanni this very loved one]] for the [[Video Game Remake|Video Game Remakes]]s ''HeartGold'' and ''SoulSilver'', {{spoiler|1=[[Subverted Trope|only to have Giovanni not show any love]] [[Parental Abandonment|and abandon his son when the kid's 7 or 8.]] [[Nice Job Breaking It, Hero|Because of what you did in ''VideoGame/PokemonRedAndBlue''/''Yellow''/''FireRed''/''LeafGreen''.]] [[The Woobie|And you can't stop feeling bad for the]] [[Jerkass]]}}.
*** Fun fact: It was actually already hinted at (somewhat vaguely) in the Sevii Islands quest in Fire Red/Leaf Green. This is foreshadowing for [[Fan Nickname|PokéSupe]], as it ''did'' come out [[Captain Obvious|before the FR/LG section of the manga]], but who knows how long the manga writers had been planning that.
* They may have been sociopathic assholes, but the three Trinity siblings of ''[[Mobile Suit Gundam 00]]'' did really love and protect each other. {{spoiler|And Nena [[Cry Cute|genuinely cried and mourned]] when Michael and Johann got killed.}}.
Line 77:
{{quote|'''Batman''': He must have friends!
'''Maroni''': Friends? Have you ''met'' this guy? }}
* Pando, the main antagonist of ''[[Two Hands]]'', is an [[Affably Evil]] gangster and a killer -- whokiller—who has a young son whom he clearly adores, watching kiddie TV with him and praising him for the origami pterodactyl he made. This goes back to the main theme of the film that bad people have some good inside them and good people have some bad inside them, as represented by the yin & yang.
* In the Mexican film ''[[El Infierno]]'', which deals with the violence of the drug cartels, "Cochiloco", one of the most ruthless drug cartel enforcers takes the protagonist to his home and introduces him to his wife and children. Cochiloco then glosses over this by saying "What? You thought I lived in a cave and ate human meat?". {{spoiler|However, later a rival kills his whole family in vengeance, triggering his [[Roaring Rampage of Revenge]].}}
* Max Shreck in ''[[Batman Returns]]'' convinces The Penguin to capture him instead of his son Chip.
Line 151:
* This turns out to be a big part of Number Two's motivation in the remake of [[The Prisoner]]. Two loves his coma-stricken wife very, very much. {{spoiler|Too bad she's secretly the real Number One. Her coma is powering the Village (which is actually a [[Dream Land]]) and it will [[Dream Apocalypse|be destroyed]] if she ever wakes up for longer than a day.}}
* Ransik, the [[Big Bad]] of ''[[Power Rangers Time Force]]'', genuinely loved his daughter Nadira despite being a mutant terrorist. {{spoiler|This is what causes him to be one of the very few [[Power Rangers]] main villains to find redemption. Even better, it's [[Redemption Earns Life]].}}
* In ''[[Warehouse 13]]'', [[Woobie, Destroyer of Worlds|H.G Wells]] -- even—even after 110 years, the only thing she genuinely cares and mournes for is her daughter, Christina.
* In [[The Adventures of Shirley Holmes]], Molly Hardy is Shirley's nemesis and quite the manipulative [[Magnificent Bastard]], but when she learns that her horse has to be put to sleep it's the first and only time we see her cry.
* The rural Kentucky villains of ''[[Justified (TV series)|Justified]]'' provide numerous examples of this trope. In season two, [[Evil Matriarch|Mags Bennett]] used her three sons as henchmen and showed great warmth toward her adopted daughter, [[Morality Pet|Loretta]]. {{spoiler|After the deaths of Coover and Doyle, Mags killed herself by drinking poisoned moonshine.}}
Line 215:
** Enor and Ganji are fairly amoral, greed-driven bounty hunters who are willing to kill friends and family members of their collected bounties should they come asking. However, they truly do care for each other, which is another [[Kick the Dog]] moment when Tarquin orders them to fight each other in the gladiator arena, which he sent there because they "tried" to extort money from him by playing out another ''[[Star Wars]]'' reference in a long string of them.
** [[Evil Twin|Nale]] and [[Horny Devils|Sabine]] seem to honestly care about each other, even though she's apparently keeping the secret about {{spoiler|working for the Three Fiends}} from him.
** The ancient black dragon [[Always ChaoticExclusively Evil|was probably evil]] before she ever decided to avenge herself against Vaarsuvius, but she had a very specific beef when Vaarsuvius killed her only son.
** And the only being capable of inducing empathy in [[Heroic Comedic Sociopath|Belkar]] is his cat, [[Morality Pet|Mr. Scruffy]].
* In ''[[Blip]]'', [[Horny Devils|Incubus and Succubus]] care for each other very much; their loyalty to each other is stronger than their loyalty to [[Satan|their boss]]. In fact, when Incubus was seriously injured, Succubus seemed willing to sacrifice herself to save his life.
