IMPORTANT: I WILL NOT COUNT VOTES FROM THOSE WHO DO NOT VOTE FOR EACH FIGHT. ALSO IF I SEE OR NOTICE SOME SUSPICIOUS ACTIVITY THAT ENTRY WILL BE DISQUALIFIED.
In this round in this thread we will have 8 villains, which means 4 fights.
FIRST FIGHT
Il Dottore from Genshin Impact
Il Dottore from Genshin Impact
Dottore is the Second of the Eleven Fatui Harbingers, one of the two main antagonist groups in Genshin Impact. The ranking number is based on the person's power and overall contribution to the organization. The top three ranked members are said to possess powers that rival the gods and even the Archons.
Dottore is known to be an ambitious and prideful scholar and will do anything to acquire any knowledge. It has been shown multiple times that he doesn't care about human lives and is only interested in his inhuman/crazy experiments. Be it children, adults, subordinates or even fellow Harbingers, he will use them as test subjects without compassion.
Most notable/messed up things Dottore did in the game/manga:
Manga
- Killed the most significant threat in Mondstand, so the city's people would trust him -> making it easier for him to gather test subjects.
- Killing subordinates and turning them into robots
- Literally not caring about the death of Fatui Diplomats
- Experimented on Collei / treated her Eleazar illness in a messed up way
Game
- Got chased out of his hometown because of his crazy ideas
- Inhuman Eleazar treatments on patients in a hospital and is the only person who can actually treat this illness
- Strangling a student and making it look like a tiger did it
- Got expelled from the Sumeru Academiya for experimenting on the locals
- Sabotaged the Tatarasuna Furnace-> indirectly killing tons of workers and citizens
- Tried to kill the Kabukimono out of jealousy. He was accepted into society even though he wasn't human, unlike Dottore who was cast out.
- Cut out the heart of Niwa and put it inside the Kabukimono. Niwa and the Kabukimono considered each other family.
- Heavily manipulated the Kabukimono and recruited him into the Fatui, who later became another Harbinger, so he could become his perfect test subject
- Tortured and experimented on Scaramouche for like 400 years
- Managed to overwrite the Akasha Terminal which was powered/controlled by the God of Wisdom
- Turned Scaramouche into an artificial god even though he knew the experiment was going to fail. Dottore just wanted to see the results and kill Scaramouche in the process cuz he was not useful anymore
- His most selfish segment erased every existing clone because of a deal with the God of Wisdom
VS
The Major from Hellsing
SECOND FIGHT
Shinobu Sensui from Yu Yu Hakusho
Shinobu Sensui: The Quintessential Sociopath
The predecessor to Yusuke Urameshi, Yu Yu Hakushoβs protagonist, Shinobu Sensui was the former acting spirit detective chosen by Koenma to safeguard the border between the living and spirit world. Gifted from a young age with heightened spiritual sensitivity, Sensui was a stalwart defender of humankind whose strength and charisma inspired admiration in allies and adversaries alike. Sensuiβs fatal weakness was ironically his greatest strength; his unerring moral compass between right and wrong. Purpose-driven to the point of obsession, Sensui believed that humans were purer than demons who, by their nature, were considered an scourge worthy of being extinguished. That is, until he witnessed the Feast of Human Vices, a bacchanalian celebration consisting of humans torturing and executing demons in the cruelest methods imaginable. Sensui snapped, killing everyone in attendance as his mind splintered in the wake of his guiding philosophy being upended. Sensui retreated into reclusion, manifesting several split personalities each with their own host of unique powers, resurfacing only years later with a plot to destroy the world he had once swore to protect. His partner Itsuki said it best, β[Sensui] can be violent, courageous, spiritually pure, and even fragile.β He is a paragon of some of humanityβs greatest qualities, combined with an unwavering cause for justice. All of which make him a compelling antagonist and villain.

VS
The Major from Hellsing
The Major from Hellsing is one of the most evil and insane villains in anime that I've ever seen. Hes the lowest of low and his plans has resulted in the deaths of many people. but, for some reason I cant root against him. During the entirety that we have seen him on screen this man has not changed his demeanor once. He is always seen smiling. Even in death he is seen smiling.
The major knows only one thing. and that is war. his love for warfare goes beyond what is normally accepted. even if it means to ruin the lives of millions of people. He is an insane man devoid of reality that will put his love for war above anything.

THIRD FIGHT
Yami Marik from Yugioh
Yami Marik from Yugioh
Hands down a favorite enemy in the Battle City Tournament story arch of the manga and anime. He was vicious, driven, entitled, yet regal, articulate, and charming when he needed to be: the ultimate manipulator. His backstory tore at the heart strings of fans, revealing the scared, hurt child that Marik really is, and we all flipped when his dark side entered the picture.
He was born to a family of superstitious overly traditional nutcases who kept him and his sister Ishizu locked underground their entire lives. Marik's mother died in childbirth so he never knew her. Meanwhile, his father forcefully carved the Pharaoh's secret onto his back with a flaming knife WHEN HE WAS TEN.
Marik obviously became resentful toward the Pharaoh as a result. Shortly after this ritual, Marik also developed a second personality, Yami Marik, to cope with his pain. Later, I think a year after the ritual, Odion/Rishid, Marik's adopted older brother, helps Marik and Ishizu sneak out to see the outside world. When they get back, they find their father punishing Rishid for their actions, whipping him until he falls unconscious. Seeing this drives Marik over the edge. His more evil personality, Yami Marik, takes over and stabs his father to death with the Millenium Rod (in the dub, he sends him to the Shadow Realm) and threatens to kill Ishizu and Rishid next. However, Rishid wakes up and Marik returns to normal, having been essentially unconscious when his other personality took over. So he has no idea who murdered his father. Despite his father's abuse, Marik is still horrified at his father's death.
After Marik returns to normal, a follower of the Pharaoh appears, warning Marik that he has chosen a dark power. In the sub, he blames this follower for his father's murder and since no one tells him otherwise, Marik vows to get revenge on the Pharaoh, leading to his betrayal and turn to villainy five years later. (The dub cuts the part about him wanting revenge for his fathers murder and doesn't acknowledge it at all.) As a villain, all Marik cares about is getting revenge on the Pharaoh. He wants to gain all three Egyptian God Cards and the Millenium Items in order to gain the Pharaoh's powers. He's desperate to get revenge for all the pain the Pharaoh indirectly put him through. It lines up well with his character. His only personality, Yami Marik, only cares about spreading as much destruction and misery as possible, cackling with glee as he tortures everyone he duels against. That's a lot more simple but Yami Marik only exists as a result of Marik's anger so it kind of makes sense. He's like Hyde and Marik is like Jekyll. It's kind of a cool concept.
Even before his darker side took over, Marik was a really good villain. He used the millennium rod to mind control and kind of terrorize his minions all while hiding in the shadows so when the heroes actually see him, they don't even realize it's him.
However, he didn't just use his mind control powers on his minions. At one point, he also mind-controlled Joey and Tea, forcing Joey and Yugi into a duel in which the loser is dragged into the ocean and drowns. And if Yugi tries to escape mid duel, Tea will be crushed to death. That's pretty messed up.
Then things get worse when his other personality takes over during the Battle City finals. His first duel is against Mai. He made this duel a dark game, or shadow duel, where the rules are more twisted and real pain is brought to the players of the duel. In this duel, Yami Marik makes Mai forget her friends one by one, torturing her psychologically. Then he traps her and nearly murders her with an attack from the Winged Sun Dragon of Ra, only for Yugi to save her by taking the hit. Yami Marik wins the duel then uses his Millennium Rod to knock Mai unconscious and essentially make her die a slow painful death, slowly forgetting everything about herself and her friends until her mind decays completely, leaving her as an empty shell.
In the dub, he sends her to the Shadow Realm... you can see why I keep referring to the original version now I assume. In both versions, the fact that he's psychologically torturing her is obvious but the dub still downplays how messed up it was. It also downplays the intensity of Marik's duel against Joey. In that duel, Joey and Marik feel the pain their monsters are in when they are attacked or destroyed. Joey is about to win this duel but falls to the ground before he can call his final attack, giving Yami Marik the win. Yes, Joey came that close to defeating Yami Marik. But as a result of the duel being a Shadow Game, Joey was nearly killed. Marik essentially killed three people (Mai, Joey, and Bakura) in duels.
Then, in his final duel with Yugi, he put one of Yugi's halves and normal Marik up for sacrifice so depending on who loses, one of them will die. And according to Yami Marik, if that one is Yugi, both Yugis will die.
Yami Marik is an excellent villain and one of the best out there.

VS
Younger Toguro from Yu Yu Hakusho
My pick for best villain is younger Toguro from Yu Yu Hakusho. Toguro is an amazing villain because of how Togashi masterfully peels away at the layers or his character. At first Toguro is a standard thug who believes might and power will solve any problem. As his arc progresses, viewers learn that there is more to his character. He is a walking contradiction who is full of self loathing and fear. Toguro witnessed the death of his students to the hands of Kairen. This in turn causes him to go mad with grief. After defeating Kairen in the previous Dark Tournament, Toguro is still full of self-hatred. In turn, Toguro forgoes his humanity and becomes a demon as a way to punish himself for his failures to protect his students.
Furthermore, Toguro has an impact on Yusuke Urameshi. Like Toguro, Yusuke believes that strength and might are everything. Yusuke even admits that he admires Toguro. After all, Toguro is untouchable and everybody fears him. However, itβs Yusukeβs mentor Genkai who explains that Toguroβs actually a coward because he couldnβt cope with the fact of growing old and becoming weak. Remember, Toguro couldnβt protect his students and thus hates himself. Toguroβs self hatred causes him to turn into a demon who wishes to be eradicated by a human. Furthermore, Toguro realizes that Yusuke is the human who has the potential to kill him, however, Toguro needs to unlock that potential through any means necessary. Every interaction between Yusuke and Toguro just builds until their final battle, which is ultimately one of the best fights in all of anime because of how emotionally satisfying it is.

FOURTH FIGHT
King Bradley from Fullmetal Alchemist
King Bradley or Homunculus Wrath is a major antagonist in the series- Full Metal Alchemist.
As a man turned Homunculus, peasant turned King he has little to no choice over his life. The only place he truly shines is in battle, and also at making some really awesome quotes. Living as a puppet while doing all the dirty work, the only joy he gets is fighting for his own life.
SCENE 1
SCENE 2
SCENE 3
He even died like a beast with a long winded speech lol.
A rather complex individual who was antagonistic to the plot rather than being a villain just for the sake of it, he's just a very badass tragic grandpa which is why I love him.

VS
Mahito from Jujutsu Kaisen
Summary:
Mahito is a complete antithesis of the MC of Jujutsu Kaisen, Yuji Itadori. He is ruthless, coldblooded, and a mericless murderer who goes out of his way to experiment on those he kills just to test the limits of his power.
But he is also a twisted mirror image of the protagonist - they're both "new" in the Jujutsu world and are learning at a frightening pace; they both have a group of people they respect; and both of them hate their enemies and have no qualms killing them.
What makes Mahito so compelling is the fact that he is a curse born from humanity - our hatred, jelaousy, dishonesty, deceit, is the mother of Mahito which makes him irredeemably evil. Yet that same humanity makes him human as well, making him curious and adaptable, vengeful and fearful.
His powers of Soul Manipulation are as much a power as they are a theme that surrounds him and his oponents - he "kills" his oponents' souls both physically and emotionally. The one person whose soul he cannot physically alter is, ironically, Yuji, who thus becomes a target of Mahito's mental torment killing his mentor and two friends, and crippling another friend, all in front of Yuji.
Pic: Mahito kills Yuji's mentor in front of Yuji
Pic: Mahito does an unprecedented Jujutsu feat after only seeing it done once, just minutes before.
