I've mentioned at number ten a villain so goofy yet effective You have to enjoy him in Dr Nefarious. And a devious yet very deranged rollicker and lover of fun at any cost in Xenagos. Now however we get into a different kind of villain. The one you love to hate.
If you've seen my review of soul eater you may recall I mentioned Medusa Gorgon
and her offspring Crona. Now while medusa is in her present actions more or less a twisted scientist who experiments with people both mentally and physically. Now I love this kind of villain and fun fact The name of this blog site is named after the bleach chapter that introduced a similar character in Mayuri Kurotsuchi.
Love this villain but I've long since stopped paying attention to bleach so uh let's just get back to business.
Like I said Medusa is a scientist determined to spread madness and one of the ways she has is by using her own child as someone to spread it against their will. Lemme describe Crona gorgon to prove just how fucked up medusa is. Keep in mind medusa made crona this way.
Keep in mind this is an anime so the pink hair is normal.
First of all they are insanely skinny and seem to be malnourished. This is proven in the fact that during a flashback it's shown they were basically kept in a small black room around the age of five to kind of convince them to do what they're told and fed little. Some of which gets eaten by that thing on their head. that thing on their head is raganrok. Ragnarok is their blood. It is a weapon (weapons meaning a living being that can turn into a weapon in this context) who was melted down in weapon form and mixed with her blood. So it's not just her own offspring she's a dick to.
Medusa basically fused a bully into their blood that steals their food and hits them but here's the kicker. Who knows what other things they did because crona....well
I think I used this joke before but eh.
They have no gender. The english dub says it's a guy but they also said that they did this to avoid calling them an "It" which they said would be disrespectful. They with lack of a better term mutated their own child to cause them to become deranged and turned their blood into a weapon just so they could become a demon god (or kishin)
One of the other things with Medusa is their ability to manipulate people. I mean their child is one thing but they also disguised them self as a nurse in the weapon school to experiment with them as well. Because mutating their own child for personal gain just wasn't enough she wanted to experiment on EVERYONE ELSE'S TOO!!
And not just kids. She seduces another teacher named stein (and yes it's a Frankenstein joke) who was already a bit wobbly on the sanity part and tries to bring them to the dark side. tricking another witch into believing shibusen (said weapon school) killed their sister when they did. threatening to kill a somewhat innocent witch name Eruka who is scared out of her mind most of the time because of her. She forces crona against their will to implant a magic hex inside of stein girlfriend which warps him even more so. Dies.....then comes back by possessing a little girl. Betrayed her own sister leaving her for death ( to be fair on that one her sister arachne is kind of a bitch too but nowhere the uncrowned queen here.)
Here's the kicked though. She evantually takes arachne's body for her own once the little girl becomes more of a hassle to her ( she was okay in both versions but she did use her as a kind of hostage) she then fucks around for a while (fusing her child with a being of pure madness and helping to turn a priest to the dark side as well may I add ) And makes crona basically nuke a town in russia. afterwards she in a weird moment...
Welcomes them home in a loving manner and makes them their favorite food?
What happens here is up to debate but in the end this was the final straw for crona. I sincerely doubt that they just became good but crona's actions were to her delight anyway. Crona snapped and killed medusa with her last words being " I love you" Whether it was to cause such a whiplash they'd go nuts and kill her and emphasize their guilt to make it worse even after (kill me and taint yourself how very johan/joker of you) or not is again debatable but considering her it wouldn't surprise me at all.
The only real downside to medusa as a villain is that she never really gives a reason for why she wants to spread chaos other then she's so smart she's insane but honestly she's so determined in her mission to spread chaos that she'd do anything. romantic manipulation, Mutating children including her own child. manipulating innocents and semi innocents (seriously what is your deal eruka) and then the very johan-esque death just to make her child even more deranged.
Jesus christ what a bit...
O.O
She also makes this face....intimidation....forgot to mention that one.
