CotD is Temporal Machine God Gabrion. Number 9.

 

Z-ONE becoming good was predictable, yet necessary.

If Aporia and Antinomy went good, and if Antimony's last words to Yusei were to save Z-ONE, why would you think otherwise >.>

Don't know if Paradox went good or not because I didn't see the movie :T

 

It was more of the fact that Z-ONE was Yusei and he had a hell of a good reason to become good too.

Paradox did, I think. Or just realized his errors.

But Z-ONE did have good intentions, so why not have him redeem himself when he only wanted to save the future?

I think the main issue here is how it seems no matter what a villain's done there has to be some sort of shot at not making them a total monster.

 

If anything it just seems like a let down after all the set up. The villain's done so much, hurt lots of people, in this case played a bunch of card games, and the hero finally got super saiyan plot hax cards to put an end to everything, and after all that the show tries to make the villain look like a good person.

 

It's almost like you'd prefer the villain just be a complete monster as that would make a better villain.

 

Anyway, this is one side of looking at villains. Depending on how they're handled, trying to redeem villains can work rather well. But in cases where you want to demonize your villain and then go back and try to make it look not that bad it loses some effect on some people. THis was my main issue with Ulquiorra in Bleach. Complete monster then Kubo tried to humanize him and it didn't really work for me.

 

Oh hey, look at all that rambling, think I'll stop now.

This is why Lelouch and Light were such successes. By not trying to humanize them (as they already were, therefore they used the humanity aspect to demonize them in a sort) the shows ended on good terms. But then again Yugioh is meant for kids, not like Code Geass and Death Note.

 

No Moral questions and all.

It's exactly as Yusei said. He did absolutely nothing wrong. ZONE just wanted to create a new future, after living through one full of despair.

Not entirely. Goodwin and Aporia are like ZONE, in this case. Goodwin just wanted to surpass Destiny with his brother. Aporia was lost in despair until Jack told him about how he had hope in him all along, because he believed in ZONE like Team 5D's believed in Yusei.

 

It's pretty much the whole reason why people liked Aporia more than Team 5D's and viewed him as a good guy before his canon betrayal. It's because, like the others, he just wanted a bright future. They all didn't really do anything wrong.

 

Of course, what I'm talking about probably means nothing to what you're defining. xD

Really, once the villain has gone to complete monster, like Aizen or Ulquiorra, redeeming them is pretty stupid.
