Re: What are your favorite underrated or less popular villains in media?

I don't know if he's technically underrated because I'm pretty sure that literally everyone who has played Suikoden 2 thinks Luca Blight was terrifying and amazing. Just, you know, there are a lot of people who haven't played the Suikoden games.

Vayne in Final Fantasy XII gets some major points for basically pulling off the "turning myself into a villain for the sake of my family" thing but genuinely being a villain and not the slightest bit sympathetic. (I absolutely do not buy the late-game implication about his intentions. If anything, he and Venat were both playing each other.)

Also speaking of Ivalice, of course there is my pet fandom, Vagrant Story, where I love every single character in some capacity, including the villains. I have come to appreciate Guildenstern a lot more than I initially did in the early years, having seen more nuance in his character with repeated playthroughs. And Rosencrantz is just the most disgusting vile triple-crossing scumbag, utterly devoid of any sort of honor or morality, and he does it with such GLEE - which means I love to hate him and I also love to write him. (And I would include Sydney, but... it's not much of a spoiler to note that less than halfway through the game, it's already obvious that while he's an antagonist and definitely not a good guy, he's not a villain, no matter how delightfully creepy he is.)
