Line 71:
** Zig-zagged with Onji in the Dark Tournament. He sports some moves in Team Uratogi's quarterfinal match, but next to his teammates, he looks like a normal, friendly old man. Then he effortlessly beats Kuwabara (though to be fair, the latter's own stupidity plays a part in it), and reveals himself to be the one who gave his members their powerful Items of Darkness. {{spoiler|Then he reveals himself as [[Villainous Harlequin|"The Beautiful Demon Fighter Suzuki"]]...and [[Curb Stomp Battle|gets thrashed by Genkai.]]}}
* ''[[Death Note]]'':
** Although he's frightening to look at, it is easy to underestimate Ryuk. [[Villain Protagonist]] Light seems a lot worse, and with his addiction to apples and other humorous qualities, Ryuk tends to come across as [[Plucky Comic Relief]] and Light's [[The Kid Withwith the Leash|"pet"]]. Then comes the ending of the series {{spoiler|where Ryuk fulfills his early promise that he will one day write Light's name in his notebook, and casually kills Light, who has just had a pathetic [[Villainous Breakdown]]}}. Truly, Light, like the audience, forgot that he was dealing with a ''death god''.
** Not to mention part of the [[Fridge Horror]] left in the ending is that Ryuk is the ultimate [[Karma Houdini]]; there's nothing stopping him from dropping a Death Note into the human world again if he ever gets bored.
* Toshiya from ''[[The World Is Mine]]'' starts out as [[Chaotic Evil|Mon's]] weak-willed bitch, even wearing a [[Villainous Crossdresser|female disguise]] and pretending to be Mon's girlfriend in public. Things begin to change after they're {{spoiler|killed by "Hakumadon"}} and Mon can't stand to kill. In addition to becoming the primary murderer of the two, he's also considerably more tech- and social-savvy than [[Wild Child]] Mon and he becomes increasingly vicious and [[Manipulative Bastard|manipulative]] as the story goes on.
