Walter White's evolution into Heisenberg is one of fiction's prime example of great character development.
Once a meek, subservient normal everyday man, Walter's life as a chemistry teacher and family man drastically changes when he's diagnosed with stage 3 lung cancer following his 50th birthday. A terminal illness.
He's in shock. Falls into a little bit of despair. A little bit of disbelief. How can he manage to provide financial stability to his family in the event of his passing, when they aren't very stable in the first place?
Along comes Jesse Pinkman, a college dropout who White himself failed. Together, (with white's chem knowledge and Pinkman as the cook) they would go on to create a new era of meth empire which takes the cartel and other members of the underworld by storm.
Throughout 5 seasons of cooking, killing, cleaning, running from the law, and stacking, the once run of the mil boring and kind family man slowly turns into a cynical, manipulative, cold blooded Kingpin.
His initial goal of providing for his family is slowly left in the dust as he's making far more than he could ever spend in 10 lifetimes, and all that remains is his pride, and a deep rooted narcissism that craves for recognition. He wants people know it's him. He wants people to fear him, acknowledge that's it's his product, wants them to worship his intelligence, he's wants them to acknowledge that he's powerful. No longer weak. And he gets to do all that through his 'alter ego' Heisenberg. As a man who's lived a very average and boring life (his only ever achivement being a part of group who helped in getting a Nobel prize some 20 odd years ago) , giving into this new persona is a gratifying experience, and unsurprisingly comes easily.
Yet, even as he falls deeper into the rabbit hole, becomes more aggressive, ruthless and starts lying as easily as he breathes for his own objectives, on occasions you can still see the Walter White in him. He is still there, cracks within the Heisenberg. In moments of extreme panic, plans go to shit or when he's talking to his family he's still there. After going through so much together, and even psychologically abusing the kid, even at the peak of Heisenberg, he still had enough love and humanity remaining to grant Jesse freedom. That's the beauty of such a character.
In short, Heisenberg is what happens when a man has nothing to lose, everything to gain, meets one final opportunity.

Prince Zuko from Avatar
Zuko is introduced in episode 1 with the single minded goal of capturing Aang, and the show's intention at first is to portray Zuko as a clear villain and antagonist. All Zuko does for the first few episodes is say "gotta capture aang! gotta capture aang! gotta capture aang!" over and over again. You could go as far as to say that Aang is living rent free in Zuko's head. So yeah, first impression is that Zuko is another generic and bland villain.
We then learn that Zuko is a far more nuanced character. We discover that the reason he's chasing the Avatar is because he was banished for caring about the lives of his country men, which shows that Zuko isn't the one dimensional villain that we thought we was in episode 1. This shows that all Zuko wants deep down isn't to capture the Avatar, but that he simply wants his father love and he desperately wants to go home.
Zuko getting banished and getting his scar!
The ironic thing is that Zuko has an uncle who loves him and treats him like his own son, but he's so obsessed with getting his father's love and approval that he turns a blind eye to his uncle's love. Zuko is so obsessed with winning his father's respect that he goes so far as to betray his nation and commits treason by setting the Avatar free after some Fire Nation soliders capture him. This is where Zuko starts to blur the line and where the viewer starts to question is Zuko is really an antagonist and villain. Zuko is fighting the bad guys from his nation in order to free the main character. Even if Zuko is only doing this just to capture Aang himself, you can't help but feel there's more to Zuko"s character.
Zuko saving Aang and betraying his nation!
The rest of Season 1 is Zuko constantly trying to capture Aang and constantly catching Ls so let's skip that and fast forward to Season 2. Season 2 gets more interesting for Zuko's character development since now Zuko's father has sent Zuko's sister to capture Zuko and his uncle. So now Zuko is being hunted after by his own countrymen, the same countrymen that he tried saving in the first place which led to his banishment.
Zuko being declared a fugitive/traitor and being hunted down!
As the stress of Zuko being hunted down as a traitor and fugitive gets to him, we see Zuko slowly and slowly go further to the dark side. He starts robbing people all day everyday, constantly disrespects his uncle, and just acts more and more unpleasant. Eventually his sister Azula needs his help and she offers Zuko a way to return home, as long as Zuko helps her capture the avatar and their uncle. In other words, Zuko has to choose between returning home and getting his father's love, or standing by the uncle who lived with him in exile when he had nobody else. Zuko decides to betray his uncle and side with his sister, the same sister that was trying to capture him all throughout season 2 lmao. Zuko's lowest and most shameful point by far.
Zuko betraying his uncle! Boo!!! *throws tomato at Zuko*
So Season 3 starts and Zuko finally faces his father. His father praises him, he got a girlfriend off-panel, the citizens of the Fire Nation all praise his return. Zuko finally got everything he wanted.
Zuko returning home and everyone cheering for him!
And yet despite getting everything he's finally wanted, Zuko is still not happy. The guilt of his uncle rotting in prison while he's living the 10/10 rich life gets to him. Eventually Zuko realizes that he doesn't need his father's love and approval, and that the Fire Nation is an evil and tyrannical nation that has caused countless amount of death and destruction. Zuko then decides to confront his father and tell him all of this. Zuko's father is proud of him after hearing all of this and tells Zuko he leave the Fire Nation in peace. Just kidding, Zuko's fathers first reaction is to murder Zuko after hearing this. Zuko's sister also tries killing Zuko after hearing this.
Zuko's crazy father trying to kill him!
Zuko's crazy sister trying to kill him!
Zuko then joins Aang's group and becomes Aang's firebending teacher. In other words, Zuko goes from a villain and an antagonist to now becoming a good guy and one of the protagonists. Zuko ends up teaching Aang firebending quite well and he manages to integrate himself with the main characters quite well, going on 1 on 1 trips with Aang, Katara, and Sokka, (sorry Toph lmao).
Eventually though, Zuko challenges his sister to a duel to determine who the next Fire Lord will be. Azula loses the deal and Zuko becomes the new Fire Lord and the 100 year war is finally over.
Zuko's sister getting her ass kicked!
Zuko becoming the new Fire Lord!
Zuko's character development is phenomenal and it was beautiful watching him start off as a villain and antagonist and slowly turning into a protagonist and good guy over 3 seasons
