Antagonists have many potential on-screen relationships — white-hot hatred, deep-seated desire for revenge, well-concealed sexual attraction, or bitter contempt — but one of the rarest and most satisfying is not hostility at all, but... friendship. Essentially, a platonic Foe Romance Subtext. Over the years, a Hero and their nemesis will share trials, failures, and successes at each other's hands, each becoming enormously important in the other's life and more intimate (not that kinda intimate! ...Well, usually) than many best friends. Over the course of a series' many Story Arcs, the two will develop a grudging respect for them as a Worthy Opponent. It can sometimes grow to the point that the villain will refrain from killing the hero in a "cheap" or dishonorable way, and even start to concoct bizarre excuses to avoid doing so entirely, spare his life, or even saving them. In these cases, the hero and villain are very likely to become strange bedfellows to beat a new villain who doesn't play by the rules, which may lead to Fire Forged Friendship. Sometimes, the villain will decide to admit to the friendship and perform a full Heel–Face Turn. If another villain kills the hero, this one may make sure that the hero doesn't die alone, and the hero will do the same for them. Even if the villain doesn't switch sides, it's not impossible for both to be friends "off the clock", or take time out of their latest fracas to Go Karting, or share a meal, or run errands together. Other times, the opposite happens. A villain may notice that this is weakening him against the hero, and he'll promptly jump off the slope that they've been slowly climbing and undoing seasons worth of Villain Decay by doing something truly vile, like stuffing the hero's girlfriend in a fridge, or just plain pulling out new and lethal tactics when the hero is expecting the same old Harmless Villain. In these relationships, the hero rarely stops trying to catch the villain, while simultaneously making his capture a personal quest or mission. Needless to say, humanizing a person whose capture you've objectified can complicate your priorities. Related to Worthy Opponent. Compare Affably Evil, Friendly War, and Opponent Instruction. Contrast It's Not You, It's My Enemies, Big Bad Friend, Fair-Weather Foe, Go-Karting with Bowser, and With Friends Like These.... See also Did We Just Have Tea with Cthulhu?. See Dating Catwoman for the (explicitly) romantic version. Often goes well with Antagonist in Mourning. Frequently the target of Foe Yay Shipping. Has nothing at all to do with attacking your teammates, nor with Helpful Mooks. There is also the Friendly Rivalry which is essentially a milder version of this trope where the antagonistic characters are just competing (in some kind of sporting event, for example) rather than trying to thwart each other. Can occur in a Hammy Villain, Serious Hero Foil duo, as the villain will tend to be friendly with the hero, who tries to ignore it. |

The Ending of the End - Love and Tolerance Edition: After Twilight and company form an uneasy alliance with the Legion of Doom, Cozy Glow, unsurprisingly, is the one that does the most to buddy up to the heroes. Though mostly Twilight and to a lesser extent, Spike. And despite obvious distrust, tension, and bad blood, Twilight and Spike do manage get along with her pretty well. Twilight and Cozy even both ask each other if they ok with working with people on their respective teams, the other might not be comfortable around. And at one point, Cozy even asks for Twilight's affirmation like she was still her teacher (though how sincere she is is anyone's guess). And when Cozy and Spike are working together on the mission, they wind up getting along so well they almost start flirting and he has to remind himself that Cozy Glow is a very bad pony that he shouldn't get too close to. | |

Megamind: Megamind and Metroman are an interesting example, although they appear to dislike each other at the start, it's later revealed that Metroman likes Megamind, calling him "little buddy", and Megamind loses all motivation when he thinks Metroman's dead. This is because there's no indication that Metroman has a Secret Identity or life outside his heroics, and Megamind spends all his time in prison planning to destroy Metroman, or in his lair trying to do so. Add to that the film's Lois Lane expy never dated Metroman and it all falls into place, they have no life or meaningful relationships apart from each other; they're friends by default. Later, Metroman is the one who encourages Megamind to become a hero, and is sincerely pleased when he succeeds. | |

Fiddler on the Roof: the constable and Tevye. Despite one being a Cossack and the other being a Jew, they both show respect to the other and treat each other well, having a friendly chat every once in a while. When the constable receives orders to perform a pogrom in the village, he is obviously uncomfortable with the idea and warns Tevye in advance out of respect for their friendship. | |

Eerie Cuties: Tiffany tried to stake Layla multiple times, but kept failing due to being easily distracted and because of how well they got along. Which was compounded by the fact she's a nice girl who suffers from Chronic Hero Syndrome. Tiffany even saved her from Faith, by allowing Layla to feed on her and called her afterwards to see how she was feeling. It was only a matter of time before they made it official. | |

The Desert Storm: During Ben and Obi-Wan's temporary stay on Tatooine, they become frenemies with a local Tusken Raider tribe. The Tuskens treat attacking Ben and Obi-Wan like some sort of game, with the former practicing Mook Chivalry and politely leaving every time they're beaten in combat. Later, the Tuskens even try warning the Jedi about a massive sandstorm heading their way (albeit by shooting at them with a sniper rifle). When Ben and Obi-Wan visit the tribe after the sandstorm has passed, the Tuskens scold the two at length for worrying them. | |

Prince Igor: the eponymous Prince Igor and Khan Konchak. They often meet on the battlefield… and because of that, know each other quite well and respect each other's honesty, determination and courage. When Igor's taken prisoner, he is in for something more like a five-star vacation than captivity – Konchak's ready to present him with his own hawks, slaves, even his sword, and gives permission for his daughter to wed Igor's son. Which eventually happens. | |

In Wreck-It Ralph, since Ralph is a Punch-Clock Villain and Fix-It Felix a Punch-Clock Hero, neither bears the other any particular enmity and they actually get along pretty well in their off hours, Felix even trying to keep an anniversary celebration a secret so as not to hurt Ralph's feelings, and inviting him in when he does find out so Ralph doesn't feel left out. The Nicelanders, though, treat Ralph as if he actually is a villain, and ostracize him to the point it nearly causes their game to get unplugged. | |

Matt Hardy has also played this trope in a different way, through the first half of his feud with Montel Vontavious Porter in 2007-2008. After a Badass Boast by MVP ended up getting the two a tag team championship title match, which they won, their entire tag team reign consisted of sports mini-games and trying to one-up each other in matches. It was very much like this trope, until Hardy's appendix issues gave WWE the need to write him out for an emergency appendectomy. This translated into John Morrison and The Miz beating Matt and a disloyal MVP for the tag titles, MVP invoking a rematch clause immediately allowing them to beat Matt again, and, afterwards, MVP finally fully turning on Matt by beating him up (all this targeting a knee injury Matt was selling) and claiming that he will always be better than him. | |

In The Order of the Stick, Minister Malack of the Empire of Blood is genuinely friendly with Durkon, despite only having just met him. The two enjoy a conversation about theology over tea (Malack insisting that death gods, his patron god Nergal included, have a bad reputation), and Malack even helps Durkon with his mass death ward spell. When Tarquin "convinces" him to join the Linear Guild, Malack insists that he alone face Durkon and is furious when Nale disregards this request. Then it's revealed that Malack is a vampire and is looking to sire some new "children", and that, his own plans for the continent and Durkon's hatred of the undead destroy their friendship. | |

El Canek and Dr. Wagner Junior were this in AAA. They started as friends in CMLL then became enemies when Canek returned to CMLL since Jr. felt "abandoned" when Canek left the promotion, and its pareja belts that he held with Jr, to try and save Lucha Libre Internacional. During their feud Dr. Wagner Junior turned face for unrelated to Canek reasons and stopped antagonizing him.

Yuki and Sonya of Ménage à 3, sort of and perhaps increasingly. Their acquaintance started with a fight over a man, they can't stand each other, physical violence is not unknown — but they play together in the same band, and if anyone insults the woman they both love (but who they don't, oddly, get to fight over much), they'll snap into a casually sexy embrace like a shot, and make their priorities clear. | |

In Downton Wars, Thomas and Bates actually get along pretty well when they forget they're trying to kill each other. Thomas steps in to help Bates with his lightsaber draw and is very proud when he improves, and Bates amicably helps Thomas stretch while they're on a break from chasing each other around. They both seem quite startled when they realize what they're doing. | |

Chicago: The relationship between prison warden Matron "Mama" Morton and the women in her cells. Despite being their jailer, she's on friendly terms with all of them, and they appreciate her in return. Mama's even willing to sneak them contraband items like cigarettes, provided they grease her palms (or, as Mama puts it in song: "If you want my gravy, pepper my ragout"). Used for the ending. After Roxie Hart murders her lover, she recruits noted attorney Billy Flynn for her defense, and he quickly exploits the public's demand for bloodlust to make Roxie a star. This doesn't sit well with Velma Kelly, Billy's former client and media darling until Roxie steals her spotlight. The two openly express their hate and disgust for each other, and trade barbs throughout the musical—that is, until Roxie is found "not guilty" of the murder and the press moves on to a different, more sensational crime.

Girl Genius: Zeetha is cultivating such a relationship with Bangladesh DuPree in the aftermath of the Beast of The Rails arc. Both are eagerly anticipating testing each other's mettle in a fight (but can't at that time due to Sanctuary rules at the Corbettite depot), and subsequently have a "friendly" duel in England. Granted, the high probability that it was Bang's pirates that originally kidnapped Zeetha (and thus, Zeetha who took out the entire pirate fleet) means that they're both looking for vengeance on each other and the "friendly" aspect of this Trope might well be short-lived. | |

Caboose from Red vs. Blue is generally a very nice guy, even to the Reds when they attempt to kill him. The reason for this is because he's an idiot. The Reds themselves don't capitalize on this, though it's debatable whether this is due to them being friendly, or stupid themselves. Eventually all of them become Friendly Enemies when its revealed that Blood Gulch is just a training ground for the Freelancers, and they weren't really at war. Except for Sarge; he's Red, they are Blue, and that's all he needs to know. | |

Santana Garrett and Ivelisse Vélez were described as "frenemies" after the latter was kicked out of Valkyrie. Starting from Florida, the two wound a path to Chile and back, alternating between posing in photo shoots and aggravating nagging injuries. Garrett has another in Chelsea Green, stemming from the fact Green is the biggest rival of Garrett's most famous student(Gabi Castrovinci). | |

While attacking the various Planeswalkers that were gathered in Spark of Creation, half of the enemies are actually rather friendly with them. Despite them being Kage Bunshin of Naruto, he admits the ones based on real people have their personalities shine through. Jhon'ee tells Gideon to consider their fight a friendly spar; Melanie merely wants to teach Nissa humility and chats with Kiora; lastly, old man Timothy is rather happy to hear that Garruk traded the pot he gave him for a spear, since he did get some use out of it that way. | |

The song "Snoopy's Christmas" depicts Snoopy and his archnemesis The Red Baron sharing a holiday toast after a fierce dogfight. Moved by the distant sound of Christmas bells, the Baron could not bring himself to deliver the final shot, even though he had gained the upper hand. The song is set during World War 1 and is based on the Real Life "Christmas Truce" of 1914—indeed, just like in Real Life, it is Germany who extends the olive branch first. | |

Wonderella and Hitlerella. So much so that, in the "Death of Wonderella" strip (which parodies both the Death of Captain America and The Death of Superman), Hitlerella attempts to take up the Wonderella mantle. Both had to work to patch up their Friendly Enemy status after going through a rough patch where Hitlerella felt that her enemy didn't care anymore, and Wonderella was bereft to find her fighting other heroes. Hitlerella challenged Wonderella to "Make me wish I'd killed you years ago." Wonderella even goes so far as to say in her Video Will that she makes in another strip that Hitlerella is most likely the one who killed her, adding, "Congratulations, Hitlerella, now you have nothing to live for." She's apparently even willing to bail Wonderella out of bad dates. | |

Dib and Zim become this over the course of the story. Dib mourns when he thinks Zim is dead, and is willing to sacrifice himself to save him; afterwards, they almost affectionately coexist with each other. |

Fate/stay night: Lancer is a pretty decent guy once you get to know him. He generally finds it distasteful to stab noncombatants to death and allows Shirou the chance to defend himself while trying to silence him, and considers 'once tried to kill you' (or even 'once killed you' in Shirou's case) to be a perfectly natural way to be acquainted with someone; no hard feelings attached. This is in-story Values Dissonance because, in his time, enemies could also be drinking buddies the night before a battle, at which they would slaughter each other mercilessly. He gets annoyed when Tohsaka explains that it doesn't work like that anymore. Assassin is also a good example of this trope, being perfectly polite and courteous to Saber even as he's trying to separate her head from her body, and complimenting her swordsmanship when she kills him at the end of Unlimited Blade Works. In Heaven's Feel, this is the only way to describe Kirei Kotomine's relationship with Shirou. |

Epic Rap Battles of History: In one episode, this is subverted. Martin Luther King Jr. is depicted as a Nice Guy who openly admires his rap rival Mahatma Gandhi, and his raps are mostly just light-hearted teasing and Badass Boasts. However, Gandhi prefers personal attacks and comes across as a bit of a Jerkass. Another episode pitting Bill Gates and Steve Jobs plays it straight. They take shots at each other, but compared to other episodes these two had the least animosity between them in their raps (more of each one's raps was building themselves up rather than tearing the other one down). Jobs would Ascend to a Higher Plane of Existence; Gates outright admits he considers him a friend, and the rest of his verse implies that without a brilliant mind like Jobs' to challenge him Gates falls into Pride and megalomania... leading to the creation of HAL-9000. Done again for Jim Henson vs. Stan Lee, where they mostly limit themselves to shout outs. When Stan Lee actually says something hurtful he apologizes, and then the two spend the rest of the "battle" commiserating until Disney shows up and buys out both companies. |

Warhammer 40,000: Orks have no concept of "friend", but they do have a word for "favorite enemy." During the Second War for Armageddon, Warlord Ghazghkull Mag Uruk Thraka found himself a proper nemesis in Commissar Yarrick, and when Ghazghkull captured him in a subsequent campaign he let Yarrick go (after the requisite amount of torture) so the planned Third War for Armageddon would be more entertaining. Ghazghkull considers Yarrick the one humie who knows how to fight, and has been known to kill any lackey who insults the commissar. After all, "good enemies iz 'ard ta find, an Orks need good enemies ta fight like they need meat ta eat an' grog ta drink." Note that this is entirely one-sided: Yarrick despises Ghazghkull and has vowed to pursue him to the ends of the galaxy to avenge the billions killed for his amusement. | |

Shadowrun: Before his demise, Matador, AKA Colonel Juan Samuel Pererya, was quite amiable with Shadowland member Winter Rat, who was on the payroll of the Winter Systems MegaCorp. The two had fought several times in the past but were on quite good terms — they even took to betting on where would be the next place they'd face each other again. This is in stark contrast to the undying, spiteful enmity between people like Neon Samurai and Nightfire. | |

Team Hell No was a tag team consisting of Daniel Bryan and Kane that ran on this trope. There was so much animosity between the two that they argued constantly, stole each other's title belts, and even cost each other singles matches.

In Chapter 30, Captain T-Bone joins the party, making the organization MI4. After the events at Omatsuri Island, Vice Admiral Jonathan joins, making the organization MI5. And in Chapter 40, Vice Admiral Tsuru joins, making the organization MI6. Vice Admiral Jonathan stays friendly with the Straw Hats, Cross in particular, throughout their confrontation. Upon losing, his only reaction is to respectfully acknowledge their success. It stays this way when he joins Marine Integrity as well, making it MI5. |

Ring of Honor was founded on this principle, to a degree, with its code enforcing this kind of behavior, in theory. However, too many wrestlers ended up rejecting the code and so it was abandoned (then brought back by fan demand but with less concrete rules and no penalties for breaking it). | |

In his self-proclaimed role as the Red Panda's archnemesis, Red Panda Adventures supervillain the Mad Monkey is generally quite friendly toward the Red Panda, even as he's trying to kill the mystery man. He's less cordial towards the Flying Squirrel, since he considers her an extra. As time goes on, the Mad Monkey's plots revolve more around fighting the Red Panda, and because, more often then otherwise, the Monkey doesn't put human life at serious risk, the Red Panda seems to reciprocate. At the end of "Stop the Presses", when the Red Panda is forced to let the Mad Monkey escape to capture all of Archangel's goons, he takes the time to make sure the Mad Monkey sees him waving his fist at him angrily. | |

Homestar Runner: Homestar Runner and Strong Bad evolved from generic enemies to this trope, and finally to Vitriolic Best Buds. Strong Bad is also this in relation to Strong Sad and The Cheat. He's a bit harsher on Strong Sad, and quite a bit friendlier to The Cheat, but all of the relationships have a bit of friend and a bit of enemy in them (usually on Strong Bad's part). There was also the time Blue Laser invited the Cheat Commandos over for Thanksgiving dinner (except the overzealous Gunhaver). |
