you know what’s a really good trope? “the power of friendship” but they’re all VILLAINS. just a bunch of sexy, unhinged, & morally bankrupt characters who would do anything for each other. absolutely unparalleled

Villains are usually better written, more developed characters while the good guys are just good for sake of being good.
Also, villains are often coded as minorities, whereas the heroes are basically the mainstream.
I remember an animated show where the reason why the villain was evil and how they were defeated was because they were aromantic
I keep identifying the the villains, but eventually, I realized that the writers of mainstream media are heavily invested in the status quo.
