| Arson, Murder, and Admiration | comment |
When two villainous (or at least, Token Evil) characters fight, the less evil one will rail about how Even Evil Has Standards, they've crossed the Moral Event Horizon and what they've done is unforgivable... and it was a nice touch to put lasers on the carnivorous hamsters' heads. Mostly a comedy trope, this shows up as an inversion of Arson, Murder, and Jaywalking with one villain complimenting another on how elaborate their Death Trap, Evil Scheme, Villainous Monologue, Evil Laugh, Villain Song, or they themselves are. Compare Berate and Switch. It won't stop them from fighting it out, but credit where credit is due. A subtrope to Villain Cred, the general respect a villain gets for their evil deeds from other villains. If it's a Villain Team-Up, the Card Carrying Villains will often compliment their allies/rivals for their evilness. Compare Arson, Murder, and Lifesaving. Compare In Love with Your Carnage when a villain falls in love with a hero due to the hero's violence. Contrast Insult Backfire. If a hero or other non-villain (or even some villain types such as the Well-Intentioned Extremist) is on the receiving end, this becomes Your Approval Fills Me with Shame or just Baddie Flattery. Compare and contrast The One Thing I Don't Hate About You, where the hero admits he admires one thing about a villain he otherwise despises. Examples |

TaleSpin: In "On a Wing and a Bear", Baloo has to get his pilot's license renewed after he discovers it's expired. However, this is much easier said than done since his instructor is Ralph Throgmoroton, who is extremely meticulous and insists on having things done in alphabetical order. During Baloo's test, he and Throgmorton wind up on Don Karnage's hideout, where they discover that Karnage has secretly been working with Shere Khan to fake a fuel shortage and raise gas prices. As they evade the pirates, Throgmorton yells at Baloo for his dangerous flight maneuvers, but finally admits that they saved them from Karnage and his Air Pirates, so Baloo gets his license back. | |

Dexter again (this time only the TV show) admits, at least at first, that he admires Trinity for his success in maintaining the life he's led. Downplayed in that Dexter still has every intention of killing him, but not before he can learn how to do the same with his own life. | |

Due to their lack of any actual morality, some Asurans in Guild Wars come off as somewhat evil. In one case, the actions of the Asuran Tekks has instigated a war between two aboriginal frog-tribes. Her rival, Giriff, comments he would be impressed if he thought she'd done it on purpose. | |

In the old Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles cartoon, Shredder and Krang would occasionally compliment each other's evilness (when they weren't getting on each other's nerves). Other villains also got some praise for their evil plans from time to time. | |

Early in Volume 6 of RWBY, Cinder approaches local Knowledge Broker/crime boss Miss Malachite looking for information on Team RWBY. When Malachite's bodyguards go to block her from coming too close, Cinder tosses a hefty sum of cash on the table. Malachite asks if it's her life savings, and Cinder replies "It was someone's." Malachite can't help but be amused and says that the line is "Cute." (It's also not just a line, since Cinder literally did murder a woman and steal all the money she had.) | |

In Knights of the Old Republic and its sequel, the Mandalorians as a whole regarding Revan. Revan thoroughly trashed them in the Mandalorian Wars — but far from being sore, they have instead placed Revan on a pedestal. Canderous in particular describes Revan's use of expert tactics, and ferocity on the battlefield, and even Revan's defeat of Mandalore the Ultimate in tones of admiration. By Mandalorian values, Revan was the ultimate Worthy Opponent, and to face Revan in battle was the ultimate honor win or lose. And where pretty much everyone else is upset when finding out the PC is an amnesiac Darth Revan, Canderous instead becomes the Mandalorian version of The Knights Who Say "Squee!". | |

In Mass Effect, virtually everyone you fight with who comes across Cerberus (including one or two of the people who work for them) expresses disgust at their nasty experiments, human-supremacist agenda, and resorting to the use of Reaper tech in the third game. On the other hand, they did build the Normandy SR-2, which has earned praise from certain characters for its superior engineering compared to the old Normandy. This includes Tali'Zorah, who comes from a species highly adept at technology, and Engineer Adams, who served on the old Normandy SR-1. | |

Star Wars: The Old Republic: On the prison planet of Belsavis, it turns out that the Republic was conducting experiments on alien prisoners by forcing them to fight one another and comparing the performance of each species. If you are playing an Imperial character, you can overhear the following conversation between two NPC scientists on the Imperial side. Consular companion Tharan Cedrax makes a habit of it. He's nominally a pacifist, but his For Science! motivation and belief that knowledge is valuable in and of itself, means that while he doesn't necessarily approve of the damage some WMD, technology-based Artifact of Doom, or highly unethical research project will cause, he will approve of the cleverness it took to come up with it. Some Mandalorians and the codex itself mention that they sided with the Empire at least partially to get opportunities to fight the Jedi. In Revan's absence, they'll settle for the rest of the Order, believing that the Jedi are the most powerful warriors in the galaxy. After all, what better way to gain prestige than to fight and defeat the same people who trained Revan or held onto some of Revan's teachings? note This means their work for the Empire is a Stealth Insult to the Sith, who they don't consider worthy of a good battle, and Mandalore the Vindicated openly expresses disdain for the Sith and Imperial military, saying that the Empire wouldn't be able to win an argument with the Republic if the Mandos weren't doing their fighting for them. |

In Noob, Gaea discovers that the leader of the top guild of an enemy faction has a tax on all of the faction's guilds. She initially acts shocked, but ends up calling the guy a genius due to the fact it's actually the kind of thing she'd do if she could. She still has a personal reason to be shocked since she just recently pulled a Heel Face Turn, she's one of the most greedy fiction characters out there, and she was made master of guild that happens to be very late in its payments. | |

During the ReBoot episode "Identity Crisis", after Sirus had stolen a file containing the PIDs for a sector under Megabyte's control: It must be in the code, because Megabyte's "sister" (it's complicated) Hexadecimal once woke up to find herself imprisoned, damaged, in BONDAGE, and literally used as a power supply. By Megabyte. Her literal response was to have a psychotic expression on her unique face and bellow out "WHO DID THIS TO ME!? IIIII (changes her mask-face to a smile) like it!" |

Some Mandalorians and the codex itself mention that they sided with the Empire at least partially to get opportunities to fight the Jedi. In Revan's absence, they'll settle for the rest of the Order, believing that the Jedi are the most powerful warriors in the galaxy. After all, what better way to gain prestige than to fight and defeat the same people who trained Revan or held onto some of Revan's teachings? note This means their work for the Empire is a Stealth Insult to the Sith, who they don't consider worthy of a good battle, and Mandalore the Vindicated openly expresses disdain for the Sith and Imperial military, saying that the Empire wouldn't be able to win an argument with the Republic if the Mandos weren't doing their fighting for them. | |

Played with in Rush Hour, in which the chief pretends to be doing this ("Two officers were shot — one man lost a pinkie; you destroyed half a block; you lost lots of evidence; what you did was dangerous and completely against policy; and not only that... you did a good job"), but he's actually using it to convince Carter to accept his new assignment, which he regards as an insult to the entire LAPD. | |

In The Venture Bros., when Dr. Richard Impossible becomes evil — well, more evil than he had been up to that point — he makes his Manhattan office building Powered by a Forsaken Child, that is the energy from his former brother-in-law's Johnny Storm-like ability to burst into flames. Unlike Johnny Storm, however, the victim has no ability to control his powers and is in constant agony whenever he's conscious. Phantom Limb praises this as the most evil thing he's ever seen. | |

Steven bullies him into helping get her back by threatening the woman Hawkwood is caring for. As Steven has been portrayed up till now as rather bookish and ineffectual, his father laughs and notes with approval, "You're as ruthless as I am!" Steven just replies grimly, "When I have to be." | |

Buster proceeds to try and tell him of some examples of where he shows his compassionate side. By the end, Bugs tells Buster, "I've seen enough! You're a rude, conniving, disrespectful little rabbit!" And then in a much lighter tone, Bugs adds, "You done me proud!" | |

Hondo invokes this again in the Star Wars Rebels episode "Brothers of the Broken Horn," when he learns Ezra's claim of being Lando Calrissian was a lie. Later in the season, Ezra more or less cons information from Hondo, promising him a finder's fee and then bluntly refusing to give it once he has what he wants. Hondo's response is pride in Ezra for learning so quickly. Maul is highly amused when he finds out that Ezra once stole a Jedi holocron. |

While Whirl in The Transformers: More than Meets the Eye is on the side of the heroes...sort of...he gets a shot at this during the Holiday Special. A Doorstop Baby the Lost Light picks up is revealed to be a fake; instead of a true Cybertronian protoform, it's a vicious swarm of scraplets. Whirl, who had risked his life for the fake child, mentions that they "manipulate[d] me into putting my life at risk by feigning kinship...all just so they could live to kill again." He is incredibly proud of them for this. The scraplets do seem to appreciate it on some level, at least; they turn out to be Androcles' Lion in the final showdown with Getaway. | |
