    Vegeta embodies the rage that all of us feel and has one of the best character arcs of all time IMO.

    he had his entire life stolen from him by the monster that took him in, not out of pittance, but out of a sick sense of entertainment.

    he then spent the next 20-ish years trying to become stronger to complete his desire for vengeance, and even then he wasn't enough.

    he literally had everything stolen from him. beaten from him. was mocked relentlessly because of who and what he is. they took everything but one thing. That one thing that could never be taken from him. His pride.

    I learned so much about myself as a person as I watched his character develop. I keep a figure of him on my desk to remind myself of how far I have come and to protect my pride.

    he is, by far, one of the most influential characters in my entire life.

    Add the fact that he becomes a decent family man and you have one heck of an arc.

    There's a hilarious canon scene where Vegeta proves to be a better dad than Goku (granted that doesn't take much)

        An Anti Hero is basically a good guy who is kinda bad, or does good things for bad reasons. Deadpool's a classic example of an Anti Hero

        After watching Andor, I guess Luthem Rael fits that title. Dude's absolutely savage. Forced to use the tools of his enemy to fight for freedom that he'll likely never experience. He sacrifices good people on order to protect the whole

              I've got to go with a classic in Tony Soprano. He's a real piece of shit, and yet I can't look away.

                      Somebody has not read the older comics. Movie Deadpool is pretty mild in comparison to comics.

                      Things he has done to Blind Al or the time he used his child as a bait and she survived only because Quicksilver saved her

                        Woody Harrelson's character in Zombieland was perfect.

                            To be fair, after the swallowing he sometimes puke. It's not a total sin, but just a eating disorder.

                                    Which one?

                                    The Irredeemable Ant-Man is an interesting one - he's a low level, lazy SHIELD worker who steals an Ant-Man suit and uses it for selfish things. But you probably meant Scott Lang. I'd say Scott is more of a regular hero.

                                        Yeah Scott Lang's not an anti Hero by any stretched imagination. I would hope he doesn't mean him.

                                          Darrow from the Red Rising series. I think he fits the bill a bit, but he does flip flop between hero, anti hero, and villain, so maybe not a complete fit.
