Oh, no, I was responding to the idea that "every villain is insane", not that "every villain is genocidal". I don't see most villains as insane and I think even Buu has a lot more going on than simply being a rapid monster (remember the sub-plots with Mr. Satan and the "evil Buu" and so on). To be fair, you could make the case the Moro is insane, maybe, though I think it makes more sense to argue that's "he is very very hungry". Ultimately we just don't know enough about him which, to be honest, doesn't bother me much.SupremeKai25 wrote: ↑Wed Jun 16, 2021 12:13 pm Yeah, it is. Literally all the people you mentioned were genocidal. Frieza even committed genocide on-screen. Cell doesn't want what Goku wants, Cell wanted to terrify the entire human population because that gave him fun. Plus Goku never tried to spare Cell so I don't know why you mentioned him. Buu is literally the definition of insane, he's just a rabid monster.
If Zamasu wasn't sincere in his actions then he would have embraced Gowasu when given the chance. He was given many times the option to atone for his actions and stop his plan, he refused every time. That's because he was genuinely convinced that what he was doing was right. That doesn't mean couldn't have tried to spare him since, again, he tried to spare a goat demon whose only purpose is eating people.
Anyway, as you said, Zamasu WAS given many chances to atone and repent. Whether he refused because he's blinded by his own confused ideology, or simply because he's completely insane, I suppose it doesn't matter. For me he was a deeply unsatisfying and tedious character, one of the low points of Super, sadly.
