Who would make the best anime villain?

Alright guys it's about that time and today's question of the day is: Which anime character would have the most interesting character arc if they became a villain? As of the making of this chapter 6 people responded and it was mostly a mix between Naruto or Deku.

Okay so starting dead last would be Denji. Like I get it he lost his parents at a young age, his mother to a heart disease and lost his father after killing him in self defense because how drunkenly aggressive and feared for his life, yes he was forced to work for the Yakuza to pay off his father's debt, yes I know he eventually met and saved Pochita who was wounded after a battle with the Four Horsemen and Weapon Devils where they all jumped him, yes I know that the Yakuza would go onto betray him, and yes worst of all he's manipulated and psychologically abused by beautiful women who all promised him boobs, asses, and naked bodies so he can have sex with only for them to use him as pawns for their own gain and always take everything from him like how Makima killed Power and all of his other friends. But what in the absolute Hell would be interesting about a villain Denji arc like what would his motive be for being a villain? Is it like women are all bad because they all mostly abuse him and use him for their own schemes? That would honestly be one of the lamest villains I have ever seen because he would basically be a misogynist incel because while I get it he was abused by women not all of them would be as abusive or do what Makima, Yoru, Raze, and Fumiko did. I don't know I feel like Denji would have the weakest villain arc on this entire list.

Next one out is Yuji. To be honest I think this one would be just as weak and uninteresting due to the fact that Yuji wouldn't even be around to be a villain because Sukuna would be in complete control of his body the entire time. Like I guess if Yuji feels enough despair maybe he'd willingly hand his body over to Sukuna but that would be lame as fuck because how the Hell would Yuji even have an interesting villain arc when Sukuna is at the driver's seat the entire time? Yeah that would confuse me.

Next one out is Tanjiro because while yes he did lose his entire family except for Nezuko to a demon (which is ultimately Muzan but he didn't know it at the time) that's not a good enough reason to be a villain because pretty much everyone agrees that demons are the scum and disease of the Earth. The only argument you could make for Tanjiro being a villain is if Giyu managed to kill Nezuko but even if than how in the Hell is he supposed to get revenge because Giyu was doing his job and didn't realize Nezuko still had humanity? That would be the equivalent of someone wanting revenge on the entire police force after they shot someone they cared about either in self defense or they were resisting arrest despite the fact said person that was shot was mentally unstable and the police were doing their job. Like the way Tanjiro was at the beginning, the Demon Slayer Corp would literally destroy him especially the Hashira it's not even close.
