Villains in Japanese animation with expressive features and symbolism not always found in other forms of animation. Anime characters (either heroes or villains) are depicted with traits more realistic and/or less cartoonish, especially when compared to Western media. This often overlaps with Manga Villains due to manga being adapted into anime and vice versa.

IMPORTANT: Do NOT add Villains from Western animation, as they belong in Cartoon Villains, regardless of whether or not they were anime-inspired or anime-esque, though they might be considered characters from anime imitations (i.e. The Boondocks, Avatar: The Last Airbender, The Legend of Korra, Castlevania, RWBY, Ōban Star-Racers).
