Today’s Update is one I’ve been putting together for quite a while now. I know/we all know how awesome the villain versions of our favorite protagonists are. Just take a look at Shadow the Hedgehog who’s the villainous doppelganger to Sonic the Hedgehog, Nagito Komaeda who’s the darker version of Makoto Naegi but is still considered a protagonist, Vanitas who’s literally Heartless Sora but also Venom who’s Spiderman’s villainous side. They are all fan favorites for the main reason that they are the villainous doppelgangers of their respected protagonist.

Let’s mention a few non-canon fan favorite protagonists gone evil: Villain Deku, Evil Elsa and lastly Villain/Upside Down Eleven (Yeah, a lot of my friends love the idea that she could’ve gone evil but I personally don’t)

Clearly, it's no secret that most people like villains better than the heroes themselves. Therefore, this update looks into MHA characters and which other anime villains they’d become. Some of the results are shocking! Also, some characters are compared to multiple villains as some MHA characters would have multiple motivations to become a villain and therefore would take multiple different routes.

To start off this list, I chose Dabi as he was an easy decision. Lunatic, AKA Yuri Petrov, is an anti-hero of the Tiger & Bunny series. Some people like to straight out call Lunatic a villain as he’s a serial killer. However, much like Stain, Lunatic had understandable yet arguably heroic motives that led him down his dark path. Dabi is a follower of Hero Killer Stain as we all know and Stain’s ideals consisted of purging those who called themselves heroes who weren’t heroes for the right reasons (Wealth, Fame, Etc) & that only the true heroes like All Might were allowed to remain. Lunatic was the exact opposite, sort of. Lunatic purged villains who didn’t deserve to walk the earth as well as heroes who shouldn’t be heroes in the first place (Basically, Stain’s ideology). Dabi does exactly what Lunatic does. Dabi has been known to murder heroes and villains alike. Out of the ideology section… Lunatic and Dabi are, assumed, to have extremely similar backstories. Both Lunatic and Dabi were born with insanely powerful blue fire quirks as well as born into families where their fathers are incredibly abusive pro heroes. Due to their fathers abuse, Dabi and Lunatic left their families and turned to a life of villainy where they strive to make sure Heroes like their fathers never happen again. On top of all this, Dabi and Lunatic have nasty burn scars on their body. While Dabi embraces his scars, Lunatic hides them with make up.
