Childish Villain, Mature Hero	comment	Heroes and villains can be contrasted in many ways: beauty and ugliness, modesty and skimpiness/sexiness, politeness and rudeness, among other things. In this dynamic, the hero is contrasted with the villain in terms of maturity levels. While some works present childishness as an endearing trait, in this dynamic the hero's lack of childishness is what makes them better than the villain. This makes sense to an extent; many immature qualities such as pushing the blame, entitlement, self-centeredness, callousness, pettiness, acting spoiled, etc. are almost always associated with villains and jerks. In contrast, mature traits such as forgiveness, taking responsibility for one's faults, losing gracefully, humility, a sense of responsibility, etc. tend to be related to heroes. This trope can manifest itself in a number of ways. If the hero and villain went to school together, expect the hero to have matured since then, while the villain hasn't grown up at all. If the hero and villain desire or have power, the hero tends to be responsible with their power, while the villain values power purely for the privileges and scoffs at such silly ideas like "obligation." This dynamic doesn't even have to involve heroes and villains; a mature Nice Guy and an immature Jerkass work just as well. A common variation of this trope is to have a younger hero who shows more maturity than an older villain, with the hero displaying wisdom and maturity far beyond their age, while the villain acts very childish for their age. Compare Older Hero vs. Younger Villain, where the hero literally is older than the villain, which this can overlap with. Also compare Snarky Villain, Earnest Hero, Diligent Hero, Slothful Villain, Insecure Protagonist, Arrogant Antagonist, Good Is Not Dumb, Stupid Evil, Not Growing Up Sucks. Contrast Dumb Is Good, Growing Up Sucks. Examples

Childish Villain, Mature Hero / int_12fd5db0	comment	Megamind: Despite his love for theatrics, a belief that his only place in society is being a supervillain, and all his other quirks, the titular Villain Protagonist proves himself to be a lot more compassionate and self-aware than he lets on, as well as having a clear understanding of what it means to be a true hero. In contrast, Megamind's subject for creating a superhero who would fight him, Hal Stewart/Titan, is an immature idiot who thinks having superpowers entitles him to have anything or anyone he wants, as shown by his failed attempts to woo Roxanne and his Big Bad Slippage shortly afterward because of Roxanne rejecting him for a disguised Megamind, who actually treats her as a person instead of an object.

Aladdin is a selfish, lazy Psychopathic Manchild who steals and murdered his own parents because he's too lazy to get a job and seeks to use the genie's magic to make his own life easier. Their relationships also further showcase this tendency: while Jafar is a rather unpopular man who loved his late wife and appreciates any kindness he is shown, Aladdin is a womanizer who abandoned a woman he impregnated and is a parasite who has zero qualms about abandoning and abusing anyone who shows him kindness.

Childish Villain, Mature Hero / int_1869a077	comment	Samurai Jack: Samurai Jack is a humble, kind-hearted, honorable, and selfless man driven to help others out of a sense of responsibility. His patience, while not limitless, is also legendary. In contrast, Aku is petty, immature, callous, and selfish, only wanting to conquer the universe for the sheer fun of it, has a dark sense of humor, and tends to get bored and irritated easily. The episode, "Jack vs. Aku", examines Aku's immaturity further by showing that while Jack believes that fighting Aku is his life's mission and treats it with the utmost seriousness, Aku considers every battle with Jack to be some kind of game (one that is too long and repetitive for him). In Season 5, when Aku destroys every time portal only to discover that Jack can no longer age as a side-effect of his time travel spell, his inability to kill Jack leaves him depressed, but he comes off acting like a teenager or young adult who's simply become bored and confused about what to do with his life. Jack's depression, on the other hand, is seen as more justified, due to his life being full of tragic events (both before and during the series' events).

Mario is a fairly grounded and humble guy who initially wasn't interested in becoming a hero, only agreeing to help Peach save the Mushroom Kingdom if it meant rescuing Luigi in the process. Peach, meanwhile, is a Reasonable Authority Figure, as she is presented as an ideal ruler who loves and protects her subjects at all costs. On the other hand, Bowser is a tyrannical conqueror with the mentality of a spoiled brat who usually responds to criticism or rejection with violence, with his whole antagonism with Mario only happening because Bowser mistakenly believes he's stealing Peach from him.

Childish Villain, Mature Hero / int_2a8943c0	comment	Miraculous Ladybug: Marinette and ChloÃ© are opposites in many ways, with maturity being one of them. Whereas Marinette is responsible, hard-working, and is willing to put others' wants and needs before her own, ChloÃ© is irresponsible, expects things to be handed to her with no work on her part, and thinks the world revolves around her. Given their upbringings, it makes perfect sense that they turned out this way; Marinette's parents are loving, yet willing to be stern with her, whereas ChloÃ©'s father simply gives her whatever she wants while her mother is outright emotionally abusive. This contrast even extends to their superhero identities: whereas Ladybug is a no-nonsense hero who views her superhero duties as a responsibility, ChloÃ© thinks of being a superhero as an opportunity for fame and popularity, to the point she once derailed a train in order to receive praise for stopping it.

While Alex, Sam, and Clover are teenage girls who often act just as immature as their age, they're otherwise decent people who are willing to mature and move on from any the misfortunes that they face. The villains, despite mostly consisting of adults, often resort to their evil acts and plans (including kidnapping, large amounts of property damage and mass murder, to name a few) over extremely petty grudges and desires (such as getting dumped by their romantic partner, being fired from their job, being rejected on social media, etc.).

This is lampshaded by the Governor and Big Good, Diane Foxington, a professional and insightful authority figure, though, keeping with the trope, harbours a hidden schoolgirl boastfulness about her tenure as the Crimson Paw, a highly successful cat burglar. After Diane influences Mr. Wolf into turning good, he matures as himself becomes a Positive Friend Influence to the other Bad Guys, largely to unite them against Professor Marmalade, a Villain with Good Publicity who in reality is an egotistical Psychopathic Manchild.

Like in the source material, Dash is open about the fact that he has no aspirations in life beyond high school popularity, and as a result, is looked down upon by the narrative and by everyone else, especially the girls he hits on. Danny by contrast, is no longer obsessed with popularity and has ambitions beyond high school, traits that in addition to his kindness, make him quite popular with the ladies.

This continues in season 3, where Rodimus Prime tries his best to be a good leader despite his insecurities over replacing Optimus and Galvatron is a Psychopathic Manchild who's even more insane than his past self Megatron ever was.

Childish Villain, Mature Hero / int_53a0bd32	comment	The Twilight Zone (1959): The episode "One More Pallbearer" features Paul Radin, a Psychopathic Manchild who, despite being extremely rich and powerful, harbors grudges against three people who he claims ruined his life: Mrs. Langsford, a high school teacher who caught him cheating, flunked him, and called him out in front of his classmates; Colonel Hawthorne, his military commanding officer who had Radin court-martialed for cowardice after he abandoned his men to save himself; and Reverend Hughes, a kindly preacher who learned that Radin drove a young woman to suicide and started a public scandal over the deed. Radin creates an elaborate underground bunker, rigs up a fake nuclear war (complete with official-sounding announcements and footage), and summons Langsford, Hawthorne, and Hughes to him, hoping that they'll kneel before him and apologize profusely in exchange for getting to survive the supposed explosions. To his shock, the trio refuse to break and, with maturity and grace, take him to task for his pettiness and mutually agree to Face Death with Dignity rather than sacrifice their honor and dignity. Radin is so shocked at his failures that he breaks down completely and thinks that there really was a nuclear war, because he can't fathom the idea that anyone could be stronger or wiser than him. "A Piano in the House" features Jerkass Fitzgerald Fortune, a Caustic Critic who treats everyone from shopkeepers to his butler to his wife Esther with contempt and cruel jokes. When he purchases the titular player piano for Esther as a birthday present, he discovers that it has magical powers: when a roll of music is placed inside it, someone in the vicinity will share their deepest feelings and secrets without prompting. Fortune spends the whole day agonizing people with the piano, but ends up getting a taste of his own medicine when Esther secretly switches one roll with another that makes him start revealing his true nature as a spoiled, scared, frightened little boy who lashes out at the world because he can't understand things like love and kindness. Rather than get well-deserved revenge, everyone he's tormented instead handles the situation with tact and maturity, choosing to walk away from Fortune and his misery rather than stoop to his level.

Childish Villain, Mature Hero / int_569093cc	comment	In DuckTales (2017): Scrooge and Glomgold's rivalry takes this form. Scrooge is a mature, frugal, Honest Corporate Executive who prefers to focus on running and expanding his business over satisfying petty grudges and rivalries. Glomgold on the other hand, is a hot-headed, wasteful, and dishonest duck who puts more energy into trying to kill, one-up, and annoy Scrooge than he does running his company. Their reactions to their life's setbacks push them further into the trope; whereas Scrooge used his misfortunes to shape himself into the great man he is, Glomgold sees his mishaps as an excuse to stay a bitter, miserable Psychopathic Manchild. Mark Beaks is a joint Shadow Archetype to Scrooge, Huey, Dewey and Louie with his immaturity. Unlike Scrooge, who is hard-working, prefers to let his actions speak for him, and cares little for fame, Beaks is a Lazy Bum who chases fame and would rather focus on looking good than being good. Whereas Huey is orderly and selfless, Beaks is a selfish Control Freak who becomes furious when things don't go his way. Dewey is Hot-Blooded and insecure, yet willing to overcome these flaws. Beaks, on the other hand, allows his emotions and insecurities to consume him. Even Louie, who is similar to Beaks in his desire to become rich without work, eventually grows out of this behavior, while Beaks keeps trying to take the easy way out.

Childish Villain, Mature Hero / int_5921531b	comment	Persona 4 has two antagonists who contrast with the protagonists in their unwillingness to face reality. Mitsuo Kubo, while a teenager like the protagonists, is an Attention Whore who lies and exaggerates about himself in order to make himself look great, and resorts to murder when his claims of being the town's Serial Killer aren't believed. In addition, while the protagonists are able to accept their flaws and become better people as a result, Kubo stubbornly denies his flaws and insecurities to the end, ending up all the worse for it. The Culprit, Tohru Adachi, despite being a grown man, has an extremely petty motivation: unlike the teenaged protagonists, he is bitter about the harsh but true reality that sometimes, Hard Work Hardy Works and that there will be people who are better than you without really trying. He commits two murders and tries to bring the end of the world simply because he feels the world owes him success and relationships because of his hard work, something the teenaged protagonists call him out on.

The Collector is a powerful Reality Warper, but also effectively a small child who can barely grasp the severe consequences of their actions, putting numerous lives at risk with their idea of a game.

This enables Luz to help the entity make a Heelâ€“Face Turn by showing him how what she, Eda, and King overcame shaped them. Luz can also be contrasted in the Big Bad, Emperor Belos. Belos, or rather Philip Wittebane, fantasized of being a Witch Hunter who sought to destroy the forces of evil, similarly to how Luz wanted to be a good witch fighting evildoers. However, whereas Luz was able to live in her fantasies in a way that allowed her to mature and find friends who accept her for who she is, Philip refused to let go of his belief that all witches and demons are inherently evil despite being on the Boiling Isles for centuries, to the point that he was even willing to murder his own brother just for falling in love with a witch and create countless Grimwalkers in an vain attempt to make his idea of his brother a reality. Because of this, Philip had no real friends to bring him down to reality and he remained an immature, self-centered, and inculpable Knight Templar who became so lost in his witch hunter fantasy that he refuses to grasp the possibility that human values might change over the centuries.

Childish Villain, Mature Hero / int_6da4c85c	comment	American Horror Story: Freak Show: Elsa Mars is a White-Dwarf Starlet and Anti-Hero, but she's also a responsible businesswoman who genuinely cares about the "freaks" in her Cabinet of Curiosities, treating them with respect and kindness even as she uses them to pursue her dreams of fame. Her opposite number, Stanley, works as an agent for another freak show, the Museum of Morbid Curiosities, but he's a petty, scheming man who sees freaks as toys to be collected rather than human beings, to the point where he's out to kill and stuff as many as possible just to make a quick buck. He also resorts to blackmail and mind games to get the freaks to work for him, while Elsa, though slightly underhanded, offers the freaks a good home and is transparent about her plans. The ultimate trio of heroes for the season—conjoined twins Bette and Dot Tattler, "lobster boy" Jimmy Darling, and Desiree Dupree—are mature, responsible people with dreams of building a better life outside of the freak show. They're also hard workers who take their jobs in the show seriously and help to protect the other freaks, especially those who can't help themselves. By contrast, Big Bad Dandy Mott is the very definition of a Psychopathic Manchild: he lives in a gigantic playroom full of toys, has a mother who endlessly pampers him, and thinks that his money allows him to do whatever he wants without any consequences, including trying to buy Bette and Dot to be his personal girlfriends (apparently not realizing that you can't buy people).

Childish Villain, Mature Hero / int_701f0ece	comment	Berserk: Used as one of the many aspects by which Guts and Griffith act as foils to each other. Guts, for his faults, gradually begins to care about things beyond base survival, and even after the horror of the Eclipse, eventually the meaningless and destructiveness caused by his revenge quest as the Black Swordsman, moving past it to prioritize protecting those that he cares about and finding his own meaning in life. In contrast, Griffith, despite his Wicked Cultured exterior, is a Psychopathic Manchild who refuses to ever move past his initial childish goal of achieving a kingdom even when it's flatly told to him this desire was deliberately inserted into him by the Godhand, is incapable of viewing people outside of their relation to him, and is willing to sacrifice anyone, even those he has grown to care about, in pursuit of it. And to drive the whole point home, as Art Evolution progresses, Griffith is drawn to look increasingly child-like and cherubic despite the fact that he's at least 2 to 3 years older than Guts is, showing how childish Griffith is deep down.

By contrast, Hero Antagonists Tessa Dithers and Mattie are both thoughtful, compassionate, and much more serious — to the point that Mattie often wonders if he deserves to be called a hero. Indeed, Braun finds Mattie's maturity so boring that he uses his control over the simulation to regress Mattie right back to the start of his life — inflicting a horrific pregnancy on Tessa in the process — in the hope that he can be raised and indoctrinated into a fellow Psychopathic Manchild.

Ratchet, Clank, Rivet, and Kit all have their personal flaws (Ratchet can be sarcastic and hot-blooded, Clank can be naive, Rivet has I Work Alone tendencies and a Fantastic Racism towards robots, and Kit suffers from a Guilt Complex for taking away Rivet's arm), but they are still good people who do what's right in the end and help other people during their quests. Dr. Nefarious, while a childish villain himself, is still far more mature than Emperor Nefarious since heâ€™s willing to accept and learn from his defeats, be happy with the victories he does get, and will also fight his enemies when the going gets tough. Emperor Nefarious, on the surface seems like everything Dr. Nefarious wanted to be as a successful villain and conqueror, but ultimately turns out to be a bully with a fragile ego that Dr. Nefarious can't stand at all once he gets to know him. He also believes in winning above all else, which Dr. Nefarious points out has left him miserable because he equates happiness with success and achieving absolute victory has left him without a purpose now that he's conquered his entire dimension. Instead of taking the time to consider that he should stock happiness in more than just conquest, he concludes that he hasn't conquered all dimensions and thus hasn't truly won. While Dr. Nefarious is so used to defeat that he's satisfied to get at least one victory, Emperor Nefarious is so used to winning that he can't even consider the possibility he could lose and undergoes a Villainous Breakdown and Suicidal Cosmic Temper Tantrum when he finally suffers his first true defeat. And while Dr. Nefarious is determined and willing to get his hands dirty when the situation calls for it, Emperor Nefarious is a Dirty Coward who will only fight battles he thinks he can win, and when he's finally being dragged down by a Kraken, he shamelessly and pathetically begs his counterpart to save him, with Dr. Nefarious refusing to help him.

He becomes so determined to bring Martel back to life that he'll cross any lines to get her back. When Martel finally intervenes and calls out Mithos for his actions, pointing out that this goes against everything they fought for, Mithos refuses to accept her words and goes Laughing Mad, and then deliberately misinterprets her last request to restore the world to the way it was by taking her soul and the Great Seed to Derris-Kharlan just to be with his sister forever, no longer caring about the world. When he's finally put down, he states that he doesn't regret any of his actions and he would do them all over again if he could. Lloyd Irving on the other hand, while his ideals also clash with the way the world works, is willing to yield when it's clear he's in the wrong and actually learn from his mistakes, allowing him to undergo Character Development and become an All-Loving Hero. Lloyd's party members also share some of Yggdrasil's insecurities, but they are able to overcome them by choosing not to go with the easy solution like he has.

Puss is an outlaw Anti-Hero who, despite his pride and selfishness towards his allies, nobly fights for the people and is resourceful enough to outwit his foes. Meanwhile, Goldi is a wanted criminal who, while having a notorious criminal record, confronts her victims reasonably as long as they don't try to defy her, and cares for the Three Bears as her adoptive family (even if she plans to separate herself from them because she thought she was the outcast among them). Both Puss and Goldi also give up on their respective wishes for using the Wishing Star upon learning the big picture by the time of the film's climax. Jack, on the other hand, is a spoiled Psychopathic Manchild who, on top of having a front for his crimes, is Driven by Envy of fairy tale creatures, wants to have control of all the magic in the world (with no intention of sharing any of it), and doesn't care about who has to die (whether it be his enemies or underlings) to get his wish.

Childish Villain, Mature Hero / int_959f1374	comment	Naruto: Obito, Madara, and Black Zetsu have different levels of immaturity, but they all serve as the childish villain to the mature heroes: Obito, as a result of witnessing Kakashi impale Rin because the latter took his attack to ensure she wouldn't be used to destroy Konoha, sought to replace reality with an illusion because he couldn't accept a world with Rin dead and his team permenantly broken apart. The illusion he seeks to create is one where everyone can be happy and the good guys always win, but he's also willing to kill countless people for the sake of his goal, reasoning that they'll all just be brought back in the illusion. That being said, deep down he does regret his actions, but he didn't have his friends to serve as his moral compass and is trying to convince himself that he's committed to the plan. Naruto and Kakashi had all of their friends help them grow and mature to be better people, as well as to keep them from going down a dark path. Naruto would have succumbed to Obito's temptation after Neji's death if Hinata hadn't snapped him out of it, and Kakashi admits that while the system is flawed, Naruto's journey helped him to regain faith that things can get better. Because of this, both are able to reach out to Obito and convince him to regain his idealism and undergo a Heelâ€“Face Turn. Madara Uchiha, despite his usual stoic demeanor, is also a Smug Super and a self-pitying loser who wants to cast Infinite Tsukuyomi on the world partially because of an ego trip and a desire to see himself as the savior and ruler. Despite claiming that life is horrible, it's become clear that most of his problems were self-inflicted. Despite claiming to wish for peace, he also takes a lot of pleasure in battle and treats his new powers and his battles as toys and games for him to play. Hashirama, Tobirama, and all who follow the Will of Fire on the other hand, for all their flaws, still take their responsibility to protect the village seriously, never blamed life for their problems, were able to keep moving forward despite their struggles because they still had friends and family to watch out for them, and fight for the sake of protecting their comrades. In the end, it takes being backstabbed by Black Zetsu and learning that he was an Unwitting Pawn all along for Madara to realize that Hashirama's way was superior, allowing him to at least make peace with his former friend before dying. Black Zetsu, The Man in Front of the Man to the Akatsuki, Obito, and even Madara, is revealed to have been seeking Kaguya's revival so he can be alongside her for all eternity, with everyone who suffers along the way being an afterthought as they're all just a part of his story to bring about the return of his mother. Naruto, despite having grown up without his parents to raise him and losing people he cares about throughout his life, is able to grow from his experiences and he never treated people as expendable in his goals. He even calls Black Zetsu a spoiled brat who still wants to cling to his mother's side and has no right to compare himself to the shinobi who left their marks on history.

Childish Villain, Mature Hero / int_960062b7	comment	My Hero Academia: Izuku Midoriya and Tomura Shigaraki are the series' most focal protagonist and antagonist respectively and are heavily contrasted by how they're mentored by the most powerful hero/villain of their time and are built up to be the symbol of peace and evil. Outside of their alignments, Midoriya is known for being a polite, humble, considerate, and mature boy for his age whereas Shigaraki is akin to a childish, petty brat, though this is because he suffered a tragic past that severely damaged his perspective on the world and his mental psyche, and nonetheless ends up developing into becoming a much more emotionally mature, more mentally sound and calculative individual. By extension, Midoriya and Shigaraki's predecessors, All Might and All for One are the symbols of peace and evil and the most powerful hero and villain of their time respectively. Most of Midoriya's personality traits are inspired by All Might, who is just as wise, compassionate, and level-headed. All for One initially appears to be a subversion, looking to be more mentally sound and calculative than his apprentice was until the end where it's revealed that All for One is even more immature, insane, and childish than Shigaraki could ever be shown to be, being a petulant Psychopathic Manchild whose ultimate motivation for being a supervillain stems from reading comic books when he was a child and being an extreme fanboy of its villains (especially the Maou the Demon King ones), so all he wants is to become one to show how this kind of villain would go in reality to the point where he outright rejects the fact that the villains lost, making him a childishly delusional chuunibyou of all things, and throws destructive temper tantrums when things don't go his way. All of this comes to a head when Shigaraki calls him out for using him and the League of Villains he's founded as disposable tools for accomplishing his childish goals before ripping his metaphysical vestige apart from the inside out, which alongside Lady Nagant turning on him, causes All For One to throw a massive tantrum like the pathetic child he really is.

Childish Villain, Mature Hero / int_b517d654	comment	Infinity Train: Used in Book 3 as part of Simon and Grace's wildly diverging character arcs. Grace is responsible for Simon turning into the person they are in the first place along with found The Apex to begin with, but when confronted on the the truth about the train, and the humanity of the "nulls", realizes how horrifying her actions are and tries to make amends for them and care for the children under her wing. In contrast, Simon is so emotionally dependent on both Grace and the narrative that's been fed to them that they deny blatant reality when confronted with their horrible actions, attempt to kill Grace multiple times, and take over the apex while posing as an edgelord fantasy villain before being horribly melted to death by a Ghom while incoherently laughing and crying from a mixture of shock, grief and terror like the small, scared little boy that he ultimately was.

Childish Villain, Mature Hero / int_b89bf586	comment	Ninjago: Season 4 introduces Master Chen, the former sensei of Garmadon who despite being a master manipulator often acts like a bratty child who throws tantrums when things don't go his way. This is in contrast to his ex-student and the ninja, who are usually level-headed, humble, responsible, and diligent in their duties to protect those around them. Season 8 introduces The Quiet One, aka Harumi. Once Lloyd discovers her true nature, she reveals her demeanor to be that of a bratty child who throws tantrums when things don't go her way and gloats about her victories, real or presumed. It's revealed that Harumi was originally a fan of the Ninja until the Great Devourer's attack on Ninjago robbed her of her parents and she blamed the Ninja for failing to save them, while idolizing Lord Garmadon for being the one to kill the Devourer. This led her to secretly become founder of the Sons of Garmadon so she can resurrect him as a being of evil and stand at his side taking over Ninjago. Despite calling the Ninja "kids playing dress-up" because Ninjago nearly fell under their watch, Harumi fails to see her own immaturity and realize that her own actions will cause the same pain and trauma she suffered to befall onto other people. The Ninja, while not perfect, still do their best to protect Ninjago, and while they each suffered a painful experience, are able to learn from these experiences and keep moving forward rather than remain stuck in the past. Notably, while Lloyd matured and grew up loving his father for the good man he was, Harumi grew up only valuing the evil Lord Garmadon like a little kid indulging in an evil fantasy.

Mr. Incredible has gone through many hardships, from being forced into retiring from heroism after getting sued for saving a man's life, to losing his insurance job for trying to help someone; despite this, he ultimately remained a hard-working, responsible, and heroic person, both as a superhero and a father. Syndrome, by contrast, became a mass-murdering supervillain who chose to let one single misfortune (i.e., not getting to be Mr. Incredible's sidekick) define his entire life, with his Evil Plan being motivated to satisfy his ultimately petty grudge.

Childish Villain, Mature Hero / int_babeae6a	comment	Godzilla vs. Kong: The main human heroes on Team Godzilla and Team Kong are largely mature, intelligent and responsible people: especially Madison (a teenaged, Wise Beyond Her Years veteran of the war against King Ghidorah who takes it upon herself to resolve Godzillaâ€™s mysterious rampage when she realizes no-one else will act effectively); and Jia (who is calm, dignified, intelligent, and more perceptive than even her adult peers despite her being barely into the double-digits). The only really immature hero is Bernie Hayes, and even this gets somewhat amended in the novelization, where he has very deep and personal reasons for wanting to bring the bad guys to justice. The grown villains on Apex Cybernetics, on the other hand, are very petulant and childish for all their corporate power. The late-middle-aged Walter Simmons is a self-absorbed, delusional, disaster-engineering Psychopathic Manchild who sees the fate of the world as nothing more than a glory contest, cackling like an excited child or throwing sulky moods depending on his temperament; Ren Serizawaâ€™s motives for being one of the bad guys, according to the novelization, are unresolved daddy issues which drive him to scream for his neglectful fatherâ€™s attention in horrific ways long past the latterâ€™s death; and Maia Simmons is a "Well Done, Daughter!" Girl who has all the manners of an entitled seven-year-old and half the brains to go with it.

Childish Villain, Mature Hero / int_bd449a95	comment	Monirobo: Naoya and Kakeru were old classmates in high school who later began working at an IT company. Naoya often acted as a gofer for Kakeru, who was the typical Big Jerk on Campus; popular with girls, a star athlete, and a cocky attitude. Naoya, while unpopular in high school, managed to rise through the ranks at his company through hard work and maturity. Kakeru, as an adult, is a perfect example of someone who peaked in high school: acting like he's a big shot because he was popular as a teenager, looking down on his former victim Naoya, who is now his boss, on the "logic" that Naoya was a gofer in high school, trying (and failing) to seduce his adult, female coworkers by bragging about his highschool accomplishments, and overall being insufferable, arrogant and immature.

The latter represents Kratos' past self as he seeks revenge on his mother Freya the same way Kratos wanted revenge on his father Zeus, but it's also apparent that beneath his godly exterior is an angry child lashing out at his mother for giving him immortality without his consent at the cost of taking away his sense of feeling. Even when he finally loses the immortality just as he wanted and regains his ability to feel again, he still wants revenge on his mother and will no longer listen to reason, forcing Kratos to Mercy Kill him after he refuses his Last-Second Chance. Kratos, having already learned that Vengeance Feels Empty and is working to become a better person, tries to dissuade Baldur from his path, only fighting him in self-defense and killing him when it's clear he's beyond help at this point.

The latter, meanwhile, while nowhere near as malicious as other members of the Man of Steel's Rogues Gallery, being a mischievous prankster more than anything else, is nonetheless rather childish and immature, being a Mad God who uses his powers to treat everything in his environment like one big playground.

Childish Villain, Mature Hero / int_d5ddd6c1	comment	PokÃ©mon: The Series: This becomes the dynamic between Ash Ketchum and the Team Rocket Trio. While Ash was immature and arrogant at the start of the series, he (and to lesser extents his traveling companions) display or develop the maturity to stop when things aren't working, accept defeats with dignity, and grow and learn from their experiences. Meanwhile the Trio remain arrogant, refused to admit their mistakes while any realizations don't stick, and continue even when they'd be more successful with anything else. The final episode highlights the contrast: Ash has grown to the point he's achieved his goal of becoming the worlds best PokÃ©mon trainer, and then accept that it didn't give him the satisfaction he'd expect and adopt a new goal. Meanwhile the Trio's failures in their goal to capture Pikachu reach the breaking point of destroying their friendship, only to get back together because they refuse to stop and change.
