Villainous

Alan Ituriel leads this 2021 animation, which subverts traditional heroic narratives by shifting the perspective to the antagonists. Dr. Flug, Dem, and the experiment 505 run a consulting business dedicated to helping other bad guys solve their tactical issues and overcome various heroes.

The show thrives on a specific brand of dark humor. By focusing on the complications that arise when villains interact, it finds a strange logic in their dysfunction. Viewers who enjoy stories interested in how evil organizations function behind the scenes will find this approach far more amused than the average cartoon.
