Here we have Bob. Bob frequently appears throughout the narrative to do what he can to make Alice's life miserable. Sounds like he must be the Big Bad, right?
The problem is that Bob isn't actually essential to the narrative. He might Kick the Dog to inspire an emotional reaction, but this guy barely manages to contribute anything to the story. He'll dash onscreen every so often, twirl his moustache in a Jerkass manner, and then leave with little fanfare. In other words, Bob is a villain who doesn't have anything essential to do with the main plot. Be wary, though, some characters are capable of pulling this while crossing the Moral Event Horizon at the same time doing something with real weight...
Alternately, this guy would qualify as a major villain... in a smaller scale story. As it is, he's one notch above a Bit Part Bad Guy in importance.
This trope can possibly go in line with Designated Villain. If he's there to provide someone to boo because the main antagonist is too cool/sympathetic to hate or a morally neutral/intangible problem (a runaway train, an earthquake, the main protagonist simply making bad decisions), he's also a Hate Sink. Compare with Breakout Villain, Filler Villain, and Orcus on His Throne. Often overlaps with Giant Space Flea from Nowhere in the case of video games. Occasionally it's an example of a Villain of Another Story. When it's an entire unwholesome class of characters who don't seem to do any of the dirty deeds of their profession, it's The Pirates Who Don't Do Anything. Contrast Villains Act, Heroes React, where the plot only exists because it was created by the villain, Not Me This Time, when the heroes assume an established villain is responsible for some unrelated mayhem, and Outside-Genre Foe, where the villain is a legitimate threat because no one would expect them to appear in the setting, who may or may not be plot essential. If there are both types of villains in the same narrative, it is most likely that they will become a Big Bad Ensemble.

Batman: Arkham Asylum has Bane: he shows up once to fight Batman and gets taken down immediately, unlike the other villains who all come back at least once. His indirect role in the plot, however, is much greater: Joker plans to use a derivative of the Venom formula in his blood to make rampaging monsters out of all of Gotham.

Peyo's original comic book version of The Smurfs story "The Astrosmurf" had No Antagonist. The cartoon adaptation, however, put Gargamel in it for some scenes, trailing the Smurfs with a crystal ball to give an added risk of Dreamy Smurf catching onto the plan. He was driven away quickly, and really wasn't necessary for the story as a whole.
There’s more than one occasion where Gargamel appears just for the sake of having a villain in stories that don’t even need him. For example the episode "Happy Unhappiness Day to You" has him track the Smurfs via a Happiness detector, on the one day where they’re SUPPOSED to be unhappy. All for the sake of a secondary plot tying into the first. Nothing comes of this plot point.

The closest Madagascar has to a villain are the fossa — but they are a menace that hardly appears, and mainly to hunt lemurs. The major conflict is both the protagonists being stranded in a strange place, and the sole carnivore of them (a lion) becoming hungry.

In Monsters University, the main conflict was not dependent on the members of Roar Omega Roarnote Though Randall is shown with them as a Start of Darkness for his later role as The Rival in Monsters, Inc. being jerks to Oozma Kappa. They could have been the nicest rival frat ever and the plot still would have happened, given that the story was hinging on Mike's desire to prove himself and his tension with Sulley.

In the majority of Harry Tano: whereupon the arrival of Ahsoka to Surrey where she spirits away young Harry sets in-motion a series of events that ultimately leads to Voldemort becoming nothing more than a complete joke of a Dark Wizard that never got the chance to actually fight against Harry, In the latter half of the story, Lucius Malfoy manages to usurp Voldemorts' leadership over the Death Eaters and become the actual Big Bad of the story.

Played with in Batman: Arkham Knight. Most of the villains don't affect the main story directly, but that's their plan; Scarecrow and the Arkham Knight drive the plot and everybody else is trying to tire Batman out, and are dealt with in side missions. This way they get their turn on the spotlight.

Cortez from The Road to El Dorado. While Cortez is indirectly responsible for Miguel and Tulio winding up at El Dorado, he vanishes from the bulk of the film after the opening, is briefly seen a couple more times and only factors into the plot again very late in the film, with Tzekel-Kan taking over as the main villain for the bulk of the film.

The Miraculous Ladybug story "Fox Rain V2" has Zoe Du Moralle and her father the Prefect of Police, an oc whose main purpose is to fill a plot hole in the original show about a police officer being fired by the mayor (Paris didn't have a municipal police until 2021, only a detachment of the state police that answered to the Prefect of Police)]] and serve as a foil to Lila and Chloé by being much pettier in general and far less effective as an Akuma. She has very little impact on the main plot, centered about Marinette and Lila getting to know each other and the latter maturing beyond her villainy.

His indirect role in the plot, however, is much greater: Joker plans to use a derivative of the Venom formula in his blood to make rampaging monsters out of all of Gotham.
Two-Face in Batman: Arkham City. He is seen once in the main game. With the Catwoman story DLC, twice. The only part he serves in the story is capturing Catwoman for a while so Batman can save her.
Mad Hatter has no actual bearing on the plot, yet his side-quest shows up by actually making you believe the plot is solved. All other sidequest villains, like Deadshot or Hush, don't even bother pretending to belong to the plot. To be fair, they can be mostly ignored. But if it's the first time you're playing the game, ignoring Mad Hatter is really hard to do. And completing his sidequest reveals that he had an important role in Hugo Strange's rise to power.
Riddler, just like in the first game, doesn't actually contribute to the plot, but, again, he certainly doesn't like being ignored, so there's no chance not to run into his sidequest.
Only two of the eight assassins in Batman: Arkham Origins directly impact the plot — Bane and Firefly. Another two — Shiva and Deadshot only show up in sidequests. The other four just show up to serve as a boss fight while Batman's trying to do something else. Two of the latter six do indirectly impact things, however — Electrocutioner's gloves become a very useful tool for Batman after his death, and Shiva provides some futureshadowing for the first two Arkham games.
Mad Hatter is, once again, irrelevant to the plot, but you get an "invitation" to his sidequest as soon as you finish a story mission.
Played with in Batman: Arkham Knight. Most of the villains don't affect the main story directly, but that's their plan; Scarecrow and the Arkham Knight drive the plot and everybody else is trying to tire Batman out, and are dealt with in side missions. This way they get their turn on the spotlight.

The Joker in Justice. His role during the story? Escape from Arkham Asylum, blow up a significant chunk of Brainiac's compound, and injure Scarecrow while the latter is trying to run away, in that order. All as revenge for Lex Luthor not inviting him into being part of his Legion of Doom. His rampage provides additional insult to injury at the climax while the Legion is getting its ass kicked by the Justice League, but that is it.

Perhaps the most notable example is The Cardinal, the leader of Section One's arch-enemy organization Red Cell, who despite being a top priority target appears in two scenes, does nothing of note, and is captured off-screen.

In a way, Gaston in Beauty and the Beast is this trope, despite his prominence and important actions. Until the climax, he's completely separate from the main focus of the plot: Belle and the Beast needing to fall in love to break the Beast's spell and gradually doing so. From a plot standpoint alone, his only purpose is to cause the Beast's Disney Death in the end, leading to Belle's spell-breaking confession of love. Unsurprisingly he's a Canon Foreigner, not in the original fairy-tale, where the Beast's Disney Death is just due to grief over Beauty leaving him.
Then there’s Forte from the sequel Enchanted Christmas, who, as far as the trailers are concerned, has very little influence on the plot…except for sowing discord into the Beast and leading Belle out into the Black Forest to find a tree.

Harry Potter:
Draco Malfoy is this most of the time in the early books, where he spends his time being Harry's Jerkass nemesis at Hogwarts, and serve as a Red Herring while his father takes on plot-relevant villainy stuff. He only really starts to dovetail with the main villains in book 5, and even that was a role that wasn't needed for the book, especially since he at last got a true plot-relevant role in the following book.
The position of the professor of Defense against the Dark Arts during the events of Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets is filled with the ridiculously narcissistic Gilderoy Lockhart whose only function seems to be providing comic-relief and only making everything plot-relevant accidentally worse... until it is revealed that he is a fraud who is willing to cause permanent amnesia to two 13-year olds in order to hide how incapable he is of dealing with the main problem.
Dolores Umbridge is largely just there to give the main characters something to keep them busy during most of Book 5. She has no relevance to the book's climax, which is a fight in the Ministry of Magic and an explanation of why Voldemort wanted Harry dead in the first place. The only important role she provided was The Reveal that it was actually her that sent the Dementors after Harry early in the book, not Voldemort or Fudge as the reader likely suspected. Umbridge is actually this from the perspective of the Order of the Phoenix members. She's not related to the war they are fighting, but is just as depraved as the opposition. And she at least is a major character in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix.

The main antagonists, Duchess and Terrence, from Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends, were important in the Pilot Movie House of Bloo's and pretty well ignored since. Most episodes of the series proper have No Antagonist, the most frequent source of conflict being Bloo's selfishness or idiocy.

Tokyo Dark has two of these:
Goto is a Fat Bastard who pressures teen girls into sex and tries to do so to one before heroine Detective Ayami shows up and confronts him. His actions can potentially lead to a bad end if Ayami kills him, but he otherwise has no relation to the plot.
The backstory villain Eiichi Higashi is this, in the sense that he is unrelated to the plot of the Mask and the Dark. His only role within the plot is to make the Big Bad Reina even more sympathetic by being her abusive adoptive father- and given how she already suffered at the hands of Tokimassa, a very plot-relevant backstory villain, Higashi can literally be cut out of the plot without changing anything major.

Kid Icarus: Uprising: As memorable as he is, Hades directly contributes little to the conflict aside from being the Greater-Scope Villain. The first 9 chapters focus on stopping Medusa (of whom he is the Man Behind the Man), Chapter 10 focuses on him using an Apple of Discord to trick humanity into starting costly wars, and the next 12 are spent dealing with Viridi, the Aurum, and the Chaos Kin, who all have very little to do with Hades himself. It isn't until everything else is out of the way that the story shifts to Hades as the main villain and Final Boss.

Marathon: While immensely relevant in the first game, by the second game and especially Infinity, the P'for are completely and utterly irrelevant to the plot, as by that time the game transcends to being about the main character ascending to God hood while jumping dimensions and the P'for just amount to bring obstacles who don't do anything in the plot besides standing in your way.

In the Spider-Man (PS4) game, Shocker qualifies again! Almost every other villain has an important role in the story to some extent. Shocker is just there to get his ass whupped and foreshadow The Demons. The next time we heard from him, he's Killed Offscreen by Kraven no less.

In If Wishes Were Ponies, Voldemorts machinations takes a backseat to the political three-way struggles that occur between The Ministry of Magic, The British Parliament, and Equestria in-regards to the existence and very nature of the Statute of Secrecy. All the while Harry himself focuses primarily on learning Magic, spending time in Ponyville with his friends and his adoptive mother Twilight Sparkle, and struggling with the general idiocy of Wizards.

Spy X Family features Cavi Campbell in the tennis arc. He doesn't do any work himself, merely watching his children play anything-goes tennis against Twilight and Nightfall, who are only aiming for his art collection because it contains the painting Lady in the Sun and that is said to have a code for the Zacharis Dossier that could 'reignite the flames of war'. The main source of drama of the arc comes from Nightfall trying to take Yor's position as Twilight's (fake) wife for Operation Strix. And in the end, the Zacharis Dossier turns out to be useless as it only contains Zacharis' diary and collection of theater starlet photos that his wife told him to get rid of. The 'flames of war reignited' never referred to the east and west war, but simply personal affair problems.

Westeros: An American Musical: The play's version of Daenerys Targaryen. "I'll Be Back" reminds the audience that she doesn't have an heir and can't have children. "The Storm's End" has her point out that the turmoil that has happened by the end of Act II would make it a good time for her to try getting the throne... but that she first needs to conquer three different major cities on another continent than the one on which the rest of the characters live. "The Storm's End" is not only the last the audience sees of her, but the last song of the entire play.

In Persona 3, Strega actually accomplishes very little beyond being a personal nuisance to SEES and killing/incapacitating Shinjiro. The plot to instigate The End of the World as We Know It happens completely outside of their sphere of influence, and during the final months all they really do is start a doomsday cult that amounts to nothing more than background flavor and then fight you on the last day.

Persona 4: The game's True Final Boss is seen by many as this, especially in the original PS2 version as their presence was barely alluded to throughout the game before finally being revealed in the last few hours. By the time you face Izanami, Big Bad Tohru Adachi had finally been arrested for the series of murders throughout Inaba that have been the primary focus of the game's story. The game tries to justify this by revealing that Izanami was the source of Yu and Adachi's Personas, but that falls flat because Yu had his first Velvet Room vision before he even met Izanami. Defeating Izanami is supposed to put an end to the Midnight Channel, but spin-offs render that pointless. You can even skip the fight, and still get the good ending without any indication of negative consequences. Many people believe the game would have been better off if Adachi/Ameno-sagiri was the game's final boss and Izanami's presence only served to drag the game longer than necessary. This is thankfully rectified in Persona 4 Golden, where the boss gets foreshadowed much more often.

The insane simulant in the Red Dwarf episode "Justice": Aside from providing an excuse for reaching the space station, he had no purpose other than to tack on an (admittedly funny) action sequence after the plot proper was resolved. Need to get the crew in a Wild West simulation? Simulant. Need a reason to get Rimmer on his own planet for 600 years? Simulant. Need a way to introduce a drugged-up twin brother of Kryten? Simulant. The only Simulant that appears that is directly related to the plot of the episode is The Inquisitor, and really, he might as well not be one, as his motivation isn't the killing of humans, but replacing them in history with those who in his opinion deserve life more.

Parodied in the American Dad! episode "Don't Look a Smith Horse in the Mouth", where Roger is riding Stan in a horse race (Stan's mind is temporarily in a horse's body). Roger mentions his regret that he doesn't have a rival to race against and make it more exciting, so when Stan points out that it isn't too late, Roger deliberately picks a fight with another jockey just to create a rival.

Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots: The B&B Corps are almost entirely irrelevant to the plot, to the point that you could remove almost every single instance of them and nothing would change in the narrative. They exist solely to keep up the series' tradition of having a Quirky Miniboss Squad for boss fights, except that FOXHOUND, Dead Cell, and the Cobra Unit were all integral to the plot and could not be easily removed.

Funny Business has two sets of these, since the main conflict isn't with any of the villains, but rather the main character's extreme self-loathing as a result of her powers. Isabella serves as the Alpha Bitch who harasses and bullies Jeanette, but can't actually make her feel any worse. Later, a group of Moral Guardians is convinced that Jeanette is a witch and a threat to society, but the only thing they accomplish is getting her family to move to where they live at the start of the story.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder's Revenge has Captain Zorax of the Triceratons. While every other villain tries to reassemble Krang's body, acts as a line of defense or at least gets in the way on purpose, Zorax spearheads an invasion that has nothing to do with the main scheme, and his troops even ignore the Foot Clan so they can attack the heroes. If nothing else, their level provides a memorable setpiece.

Humma Kavula from the The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (2005). Oh yes. He's given little Backstory, his motives are only hinted at, and seems to exist only to push for the inclusion of the MacGuffin used to save the day at the end. No doubt if sequels were made he'd have a larger role, but sequels seem unlikely at this point. And the most aggravating point is that the movie already had villains! Do the Vogons chasing Zaphod for kidnapping the President (himself) and stealing a ship not count?

Multiple examples in Klaanon. Some Nazorak officers, namely Colonel 437, are there just for the action sequences, and then there are the personal nemeses of some characters. But considering that the whole purpose of Klaanon was to create something huge from separate fanfics, it is only natural. Considering that, it is rather marvelous how the many, many characters, including villains, have been incorporated into the main plot, and you can never know which character will go from irrelevant to very, very important.

Two-Face in Batman: Arkham City. He is seen once in the main game. With the Catwoman story DLC, twice. The only part he serves in the story is capturing Catwoman for a while so Batman can save her.
Mad Hatter has no actual bearing on the plot, yet his side-quest shows up by actually making you believe the plot is solved. All other sidequest villains, like Deadshot or Hush, don't even bother pretending to belong to the plot. To be fair, they can be mostly ignored. But if it's the first time you're playing the game, ignoring Mad Hatter is really hard to do. And completing his sidequest reveals that he had an important role in Hugo Strange's rise to power.
Riddler, just like in the first game, doesn't actually contribute to the plot, but, again, he certainly doesn't like being ignored, so there's no chance not to run into his sidequest.

Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest: The whole Pelegosto tribe eating people alive sequence qualifies; they've got absolutely nothing to do with Davy Jones or the East India Trading Company, and they never appear again once Jack and company escape their island. The Prison Dog is left stranded on the island, however, and is last seen being chased into the distance by the entire tribe... only to somehow appear unscathed in Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End, apparently with the help of "sea turtles."

The Sword in the Stone has Mad Madame Mim, who has been described as filler for a good reason. She does spice things up and provides an entertaining battle, but most of the film could have happened without her, as it is about Merlin giving Arthur life-lessons. She's best appreciated as an amusing single encounter in a highly episodic narrative, rather than as some type of overarching antagonist.

Prince Hans from Frozen (2013) is largely indirect from the conflict with the eternal winter, taking advantage of a situation instead of causing it, with his main purpose being someone for Anna to protect Elsa from and perform an Act of True Love. A strange example, as there is a reason for Hans existing (to inadvertently start off the conflict by trying to take the throne), but not much reason for him being a villain besides being part of the moral about true love.

Earthworm Jim has, along with the main plot of defending his super-suit and rescuing Princess What's-Her-Name from their main enemies, a lot of time-outs in various planets that are not much of a break since he has to contend with a variety of villains who inhabit those planets and wish to either lay claim on the suit or on his flesh. These include: Evil the Cat who welcomes any weapon that can help him into getting the universe into his planet in a handbasket; Bob the Killer Goldfish whose megalomaniacal plans fit perfectly with the suit's powers; the territorial and xenophobic redneck Chuck; and Doc Duodenum who is an organ of simple pleasures content with the much humbler life-goal of consuming whatever passes through its domain. Major Mucus isn't a clear case however, as it was his desiring of the Suit and willingness to fight Psycrow over it, that led it into Jim's worm body. And Professor Monkey-for-a-Head doesn't qualify either, as he was the one who made the suit to begin with- it was just bad luck that Jim wound up in his lair.
The special addition and the sequel add in addition to the aforementioned ones: the eternally hungry and unstoppable Big Bruty, Pedro the Puppa who is a slimy unicycle-riding maggot with religious fundamentalist issues and a Flamin Yawn for good measure.

Ice Age:
Ice Age: The Meltdown features Mesozoic predators who stalk the main characters incidentally and show how out of water the herd really is (the marine reptiles Maelstrom and Cretaceous).
Since Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs doesn't turn into a Walking with Dinosaurs documentary, the focus on predatory dinosaurs like Rudy the Baryonyx and the Guanlong is limited to their attempts to prey on the Herd during their journey through their territory. The same can be said for the pack of blue and orange pterosaurs.
Averted by Ice Age: Continental Drift, where Captain Gutt does directly oppose the heroes at several points, even if it was his fault for capturing them in the first place.

Joe from Help! I'm a Fish became the Big Bad of this film as a result of the antidote accidentally being dropped into the sea by Fly and Chuck while searching for the now-starfish Stella, who only became a starfish to begin with because she accidentally drank Mackrill's potion; Joe and his shark companion are turned intelligent by the antidote and they start their empire. The whole thing would have never happened if Stella hadn't drunk the potion.

Puss in Boots: The Last Wish: Downplayed with The Wolf. He isn’t directly involved in the main plot, since, unlike the other main villains, he is not interested in the star, but rather, he acts as a catalyst for Puss’s Character Development. Throughout the film, he really doesn’t have much presence and doesn’t have much overall impact, but he still chases Puss, and his presence still slows Puss down on his journey. It turns out that The Wolf is actually Death, and the reason that he’s chasing down Puss is because of how he wasted all of his previous lives and wanted to take his last as vengeance. When Puss proves that he values his last life, Death leaves him be, and lets him live the last of his days in peace.

Apart from briefly hindering the protagonists' attempts to return to the present, the villains from Dino Time are largely incidental to the plot.

Super Mario Bros.:
Paper Mario:
Paper Mario 64 has Jr. Troopa. He fights you in the prologue because you intrude on his turf, then shows up in nearly every chapter after that trying to get revenge. He has nothing to do with Bowser or the Star Spirits, he just can't let it go that you beat him.
Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door: In a way, Bowser ends up in this role. His entire story arc basically comes from the fact that somebody else usurped his role of Big Bad for the game and Bowser's desperate attempts to make himself relevant to the plot. Aside from serving as a boss fight in Glitzville and when he finally manages to meet Mario at the end of the game, he's around as a comic relief role. Then he's never mentioned or seen again after Mario defeats him.Other examples of this trope include Hooktail, who has nothing to do with the Big Bad and is simply just a dragon who likes to torment people (granted, Hooktail, alongside her two older siblings, have connections to the Shadow Queen, but that's about it), the chapter 3 antagonist, who just happened to find one of the Crystal Stars and is using it for their own selfish gain, the chapter 4 antagonist who is just turning people into pigs for his own amusment and steals Mario's body, though he ends up joining the Shadow Sirens after Vivian pulls a Heel–Face Turn on them, and Cortez is just guarding his treasure.
Paper Mario: Sticker Star: Bowser Jr., carries on the tradition. He spends his first two appearances attacking Mario to force him to hand over his rare stickers. He only becomes relevant when he uses an airship (implied to have been given to him by Bowser) to prevent Mario from reaching Bowser's Sky Castle in his final appearance.
Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars: Punchinello comes out of nowhere. He has zero relevance to the plot and the only reason he even attacks Mario's party is to get himself fame and attention. Even Mallow outright says he's never heard of the guy. Punchinello stands out in that his Star is the only one apart from the fourth one (which is found on Star Hill, which doesn't have any bosses) that does not involve fighting Smithy or one of his minions.

The Cartel in Cyberia serve no role in the plot at all, and only exist to be enemies in the rail-shooting sequences of the game. Seeing as how these are universally considered the weakest part of the game and could easily be removed without any bearing on the plot, the Cartel themselves thus could also be completely eliminated.

Bela from Hotel Transylvania 2. He enters the narrative in the third act alongside Vlad, and does nothing but hang around seething with fanatical, murderous loathing for humans while his boss Vlad actually interacts with the main characters. Bela eventually, and with very little in the way of a trigger, calls in an army of his brethren just so there can be a climactic final battle, after playing a minor role in triggering Dennis to prove he is a vampire. His main purpose is to relieve Dracula of the antagonist role he's carried up to then by allowing him to finally act in the interests of his family and grandson, but the fight scene jars with the rest of the plot.

In Heart of Ashes, Lord Beronor, the head of the most powerful noble house of Dorwinion, brings Kathryn to the largely insensitive court of his king as entertainment. He does this to gain more favor in his ambition to create a lasting dynasty for his house, and he slaps Kathryn when she outright refuses to obey him. He doesn't do much anything else, however, and as soon as Kathryn first leaves the capital, Beronor's put in his place by the widowed Queen Lalemwen, and he makes no other appearance.

The General's Daughter: Colonel Kent may have been the one to kill Elizabeth, but other than being one of the men she had an affair with, he played no other part in her downfall. He wasn't one of the rapists, an officer who was involved in the coverup, nothing but a jilted lover. When Brenner accuses General Campbell of killing his daughter, he points out Kent's the one who strangled her. Brenner's response is that all he did was put her out of her misery and that the Parental Betrayal is what killed her.

Mor'du in Brave is only tangentially related to the main plot of the film. He's just an incredibly vicious bear, who likes to eat things... like a bear. Even the fact he's also the result of the same curse afflicting Queen Elinor with her own transformation into a bear is inconsequential to his specific role.

The position of the professor of Defense against the Dark Arts during the events of Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets is filled with the ridiculously narcissistic Gilderoy Lockhart whose only function seems to be providing comic-relief and only making everything plot-relevant accidentally worse... until it is revealed that he is a fraud who is willing to cause permanent amnesia to two 13-year olds in order to hide how incapable he is of dealing with the main problem.

Unlike Shere Khan, who causes the wolves to send away Mowgli starting the The Jungle Book (1967) with his mere presence, Kaa just reminds to everyone that danger lurks everywhere in the jungle, even in trees unapproachable by tigers. King Louie and his monkey subjects exemplify this to an extent even greater than Kaa, by becoming so immersed in their festive mood, that their scheme becomes irrelevant to even themselves.

Code Geass has Mao, who merely serves to distract Lelouch from the first season’s real Big Bad, his sister Princess Cornelia, for a few episodes, and to provide a bit of exposition (even in this he doesn't actually explain anything himself, but his actions cause others to explain things). He ends up forcing Suzaku to remember killing his father. In this case, Tropes Are Not Bad, especially as Mao became an Ensemble Dark Horse. However, he's still left out of the Compilation Movies.

Yumemigusa, Tsukiuta's Shinsengumi AU, has a villain named, of course, Sakamoto Ryoma (a historical enemy of the Shinsengumi). He has a backstory in that he's a Sole Survivor of a world that was destroyed, and he wants to bring pain and suffering to this one. But the story already has enough pain and suffering because Arata or You (In-Universe double-casting) is dying of tuberculosis (because he's Okita Souji). The villain is essentially just there for some gratuitous Flynning fanservice. On top of that, he's very over-the-top and cheesy, and as such, the actors have parodied that character in the comedy portions of later entries in the series. The actor who played, him, though, has returned for the 3rd, 5th, 6th, and 8th entries, as a total of 7 characters so far.

Past Thanos from Avengers: Endgame serves as this in direct contrast to his deceased present counterpart as the only reason that he becomes part of the story is because he discovered the Avengers' attempt to undo his future self's fingersnap that turned half the universe into dust. He is absent for most of the plot and only confronts the heroes in the climax of the movie, with the only contribution he made in the overall story (aside from giving a spectacular Final Battle) is to facilitate Tony's own Heroic Sacrifice to wipe out his entire force.

While Final Fantasy VI has quite a few boss fights that have little relevance to the plot, the most obvious is recurring boss Ultros, the wisecracking octopus. His first boss battle takes place at the end of a river level, so it makes a little bit of sense, but you fight him three more times over the course of the game with less and less relevance to the plot in each fight.
Seymour Guado in Final Fantasy X becomes this after his plans get thwarted at Bevelle, only appearing to challenge the party in impossible attempts to take back Yuna so that he can become the next Sin. His main claim is showing up as That One Boss in one such appearance, but not even the characters take him all that seriously by the end when they run into him yet again after already making it impossible for his scheme to succeed anyway.

Azog the Defiler in The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey. Yes, he did kill protagonist Thorin's grandpa, and the two have shown enmity towards each other, but the main plot isn't about it — it's about a group of dwarves trying to retake their old city of Erebor from Smaug the dragon. In the original novel, he's only briefly mentioned, and was killed over a century before the book, but his inclusion in the movies helped pad the film adaptation into a trilogy. Azog's role in the films could as easily have been by his son Bolg, who seeks vengeance for his father's death in the book. Subverted in that Azog does become heavily important in the second and third movies as he and Smaug are both revealed to be working for Sauron the whole time and Smaug's takeover of Erebor was actually to pave the way for a potential invasion of western Middle-Earth areas like Rivendel and The Shire.

Hamilton: King George III is technically the main antagonist of the first act, being the king the main characters are revolting against, but plot-wise... he doesn't do anything. All the main characters are in America, and he's in England, so they never tangle with him directly, and, obviously, once the Revolution is won, he has no influence over them anymore. You could cut him out of the script and nothing would really change. So why is he there? To sing not one, not two, but three showstopping Villain Songs, and be hilarious. And the fans love him for it.

Since Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs doesn't turn into a Walking with Dinosaurs documentary, the focus on predatory dinosaurs like Rudy the Baryonyx and the Guanlong is limited to their attempts to prey on the Herd during their journey through their territory.

Arachnid dedicates 3 volumes to Setsuna Dinoponera, a powerful and mean Mirror Character of the protagonist Alice that beats the snot out of several people until she's finally defeated but has no relevance to the plot other than being a stepping stone for Alice's growth. And then she just gets ambushed by another villain and is tossed to get raped offscreen by zombies like trash. Setsuna manages to get better in the sequel, which explains the reason the poor girl was called from Thailand to Japan to take part in the Carnival of Killers... was in fact to get raped. The oh-so-amazing excuse is that Setsuna's Dinoponera ant venom, that only by coincidence Alice had forced her to stab herself with, was meant to make her an ambulant cure to the zombies' virus. She's promoted to being part of the main cast from then on, though she also suffers from severe Redemption Demotion and turns into a Butt-Monkey.

The Stranger/Baldur from God of War (PS4) ultimately comes down to this, as the story is about Kratos and Atreus trying to form a stronger father-and son-bond as they embark on a journey together, as well as spread the ashes of Atreus' mother from the highest peak in all of the realms. The Stranger tries to hinder their progress, but his reasons for doing that have nothing to do with Kratos and Atreus personally. At the end, their final confrontation has nothing to do with their quest or Baldur's own mission, but over something completely unrelated: protecting his mother Freya from him, since he wanted revenge for her curse causing him to Feel No Pain.

In Red Daughter of Krypton, Blaze breaks free from a containment cell, slays several guards while making her escape and looks for allies to strike Supergirl. Nothing to do with the main storyline, and Supergirl doesn't even run into her once. Blaze was supposed to be dealt with in a later story arc, but Tony Bedard was kicked out of the book before he could advance that particular subplot.

Seymour Guado in Final Fantasy X becomes this after his plans get thwarted at Bevelle, only appearing to challenge the party in impossible attempts to take back Yuna so that he can become the next Sin. His main claim is showing up as That One Boss in one such appearance, but not even the characters take him all that seriously by the end when they run into him yet again after already making it impossible for his scheme to succeed anyway.

Part 3 of JoJo's Bizarre Adventure has a large amount of mercenaries hired by DIO. Most of them have no narrative importance other than slowing the heroes down on their journey. Depending on who you ask, this might be a good thing as these fights allow the heroes to show off the more creative uses of their seemingly straightforward abilities. Later parts also have a few such enemies, but they make up the minority of encounters.

Doctor Who: In "The Beast Below", the Smilers don't appear to do anything of note except look a bit grumpy. They're eerie enough, fitting three faces on a two-sided head, and they appear in some very creepy scenes, but it's never clear whether they're actually causing trouble or they just happen to be there at the time. The closest they come to participating in the plot is marking a child's homework in the Cold Opening.

Akivasha in Conan the Barbarian book The Hour of the Dragon is a vampiress encountered by Conan while exploring the Stygian tombs in search of the Heart of Ahriman. While a very sinister foe that makes for a memorable encounter, she has no relation to the plot or with the main villains, Conan chooses to flee rather than fight her, and she never appears again in the story, making her one appearance a Big-Lipped Alligator Moment.

Cobra Commander only appears in G.I. Joe: Retaliation to have him escape from prison, killing the warden in the process, and pulling off a Villain: Exit, Stage Left in the climax to set up a Sequel Hook. Zartan is the one doing all the dirty work what forcing the other country leaders with nuclear weapons to give them all up. Cobra Commander may be Zartan's superior, though his limited screen time makes him rather irrelevant to the movie's plot overall for world domination rather choosing to only pop up at the end.

Enforced and discussed in both versions of True Grit (as well as the book) with Ned Pepper. He has all the makings of a true antagonist, being a gang leader and having a history with Rooster, but he has nothing to do with any of the events of the story. It's actually his drunken idiotic henchman Tom Chaney who killed Mattie Ross's father, thus dragging Ned into it with him. Ned even scolds Tom for this.

The Jabberwock in Alice in Wonderland (1985) is an unnecessary addition to the "Through the Looking Glass" portion of the film. In the original book, the Jabberwock never appeared outside the poem "Jabberwocky". Irwin Allen, however, believed the story needed an equivalent to the Boogeyman, so he made the Jabberwock appear and scare Alice when she reads the poem, and then turn up again twice later (once at the end of the Humpty Dumpty scene, the second during the climax). But really it contributes nothing to the story, aside from allowing the producers to put in a climax somewhat more comprehensible than the book's rather bewildering finale.

The Wizard of Oz: The Wicked Witch of the West's appearance in the episode "The Marvelous Milkmaid of Mechanica" is basically irrelevant to the plot, which is about Tin Man and his lost love Miranda trying to stop the evil ruler of Mechanica, The Clockmaker.

Raggedy Ann & Andy: A Musical Adventure: Hoo boy. It is to be expected in a movie where half of the things that happen are irrelevant to the central plot which is saving the doll Babette from the toy Pirate Captain. There's both Greedy and King Koo Koo and his minions, both notably more memorable than everyone else due to their sheer zaniness and creepiness. In fact, King Koo Koo causes the real climax of the story by inflating his importance and rendering the Captain one more bystander and victim.

Superman stories provide plenty of examples:
In Who Took the Super out of Superman?, Solarman has zero to do with the main plot, his actions are completely unrelated to the Big Bad's scheme, and he becomes even more irrelevant after Superman destroys his power suit and takes him away.
In Red Daughter of Krypton, Blaze breaks free from a containment cell, slays several guards while making her escape and looks for allies to strike Supergirl. Nothing to do with the main storyline, and Supergirl doesn't even run into her once. Blaze was supposed to be dealt with in a later story arc, but Tony Bedard was kicked out of the book before he could advance that particular subplot.
Jackhammer's only purpose in Two for the Death of One is to pad the story by keeping Superman too preoccupied with his antics to look for a way out of his predicament, caused by the real Big Bad, during two issues.
Rebel's role in Many Happy Returns is bothering both Linda and Kara until Supergirl tells him he was nothing but "something to do" until their real enemy revealed itself, and she angrily tells him off. Kara frightens him away so badly he goes away and is never heard of again.
In Death & the Family, Silver Banshee appears, has a brief fight with Supergirl, and teleports away after getting what she was looking for. Her actions are completely unrelated to the real Big Bad's scheme and have no effect on the main plot.
In Power Girl (2009) it looks like Shazam!'s enemy Dr. Sivana is being presented as a future threat to Power Girl, but after selling weapons to Ultra-Humanite and Satanna, Sivana makes clear he couldn't care less for their grudge or Kara, and he'll not get involved further.

OMORI has Sweetheart. She has nothing to do with the disappearance of Basil (the driving force of Omori's wacky Headspace adventures), and yet her antics make the story longer and only serve to distract the heroes from finding Basil. This was very likely invoked by Omori, as he is trying to distract Sunny from the Awful Truth for as long as possible.

Pokémon: The Series:
Gary Oak in the first season of Pokémon: The Original Series. He's a Jerkass antagonist to Ash for absolutely no reason, and continually antagonizes him in ways that never add anything to the story. In his defense, the anime was originally only going to last through this first season before the franchise became such a phenomenon, and the original ending had Ash vs. Gary as the final battle, so had that happened, his previous antagonism would have actually been building the rivalry up so that the story's climax was more satisfying. Incidentally, this ends up happening in the Johto season, but by that time, he had already lost most of his Jerkass tendencies.
The Team Rocket trio sometimes fall into this, particularly in Hoenn and Sinnoh. While they often help pivot the plot (or accidentally solve it) through their schemes, sometimes they only show up to keep up appearances, with Ash's team treating them as little more than nuisances to their own situations. Later seasons try to downplay this omitting them from the occasional episode where their presence is unnecessary. It's played straight though in nearly all the movies, where they usually serve as comic relief.

Escape from L.A.: Snake is sent into L.A. to find the President's daughter (who has the key to a Doomsday Device) as World War III looms in the background. Along the way, he's captured by the Surgeon General of Beverly Hills, who wants to harvest him and his female ally for their organs. Despite the threat the Surgeon General faces to Snake and Taslima, he has nothing to do with the main conflict between the President Evil and the Shining Path terrorists. He's content to rule his own little corner of LA Island so he can conduct his experiments and the protagonists just happened to wander into his territory.

Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door: In a way, Bowser ends up in this role. His entire story arc basically comes from the fact that somebody else usurped his role of Big Bad for the game and Bowser's desperate attempts to make himself relevant to the plot. Aside from serving as a boss fight in Glitzville and when he finally manages to meet Mario at the end of the game, he's around as a comic relief role. Then he's never mentioned or seen again after Mario defeats him.Other examples of this trope include Hooktail, who has nothing to do with the Big Bad and is simply just a dragon who likes to torment people (granted, Hooktail, alongside her two older siblings, have connections to the Shadow Queen, but that's about it), the chapter 3 antagonist, who just happened to find one of the Crystal Stars and is using it for their own selfish gain, the chapter 4 antagonist who is just turning people into pigs for his own amusment and steals Mario's body, though he ends up joining the Shadow Sirens after Vivian pulls a Heel–Face Turn on them, and Cortez is just guarding his treasure.

In the first season of Yu-Gi-Oh! 5Ds, there was Demack, one of the Dark Signers; while most members of this group had extensive backgrounds, motivations, and some sort of connection to the heroes, Demack had none whatsoever in all three areas. He was a Card-Carrying Villain who seemed to despise the Signers for no known reason. (The Yu-Gi-Oh! 10th Anniversary Animation Book explains that Demack was originally intended to be from a demon worshipping cult and was sacrificed to the Earthbound Gods, but then reborn as a Dark Signer.)

Despite causing the revolution and being responsible for Anya's amnesia, Rasputin in Anastasia essentially zigzags with this for the rest of the film. Although he provides moments of danger throughout, the focus instead falls on Anya learning how to act like a princess and rediscovering her past. The protagonists aren't even aware of Rasputin until the climax. The Broadway musical adaptation drops the character entirely and replaces him with General Gleb, who also doesn't have much direct plot relevance but gets significantly more to do anyway.

Beauty's sisters in the original fairy-tale of Beauty and the Beast. Their selfishness and meanness contrast with Beauty's goodness, but apart from manipulating Beauty into extending her home visit too long (leading to the Beast's Disney Death By Despair), they have nothing to do with the central plot, which is Beauty taking her father's place as the Beast's prisoner and then gradually falling in love with him. Their villainy is so plot-irrelevant that adaptations easily leave it out altogether, either making them perfectly nice, loving sisters and having No Antagonist (as in the two Robin McKinley retellings), or else replacing them with an entirely new villain like Disney's Gaston.

Only two of the eight assassins in Batman: Arkham Origins directly impact the plot — Bane and Firefly. Another two — Shiva and Deadshot only show up in sidequests. The other four just show up to serve as a boss fight while Batman's trying to do something else. Two of the latter six do indirectly impact things, however — Electrocutioner's gloves become a very useful tool for Batman after his death, and Shiva provides some futureshadowing for the first two Arkham games.
Mad Hatter is, once again, irrelevant to the plot, but you get an "invitation" to his sidequest as soon as you finish a story mission.

By far the most persistent villain in the series, she is the Big Bad for a whole slew of subplots, including Afin's subplot, Matoi's backstory, Marg's chapter in EPISODE 5, Phantasy Star Online 2 EPISODE 0, Phantasy Star Online 2: The Animation, and even a reference in Phantasy Star Online 2es as the source of one villain's Mind Control powers, but ultimately 95% of her contribution to the plot could be removed or reduced to a footnote and make absolutely no difference to the narrative.

Stathis Borans in The Fly (1986) is a seriously played with example. He is Veronica's editor and ex-lover, who becomes a Stalker with a Crush as he realizes that Seth Brundle is interested in her and tries to sabotage the relationship that follows...but only over the course of the first act; he stands down when she confronts him over an attempt to blackmail her into leaving Seth. But because Veronica sees Stathis as a personal nuisance, she doesn't let Seth know about this...so he doesn't know exactly what's going on when she leaves to confront Stathis. Seth has never been in a relationship before and is intensely dedicated to whatever is important to him; he jumps to the conclusion that they're still lovers based on what he does know. He gets jealous, then drunk...and decides to become Professor Guinea Pig as his teleportation device's first human subject, and not noticing the fly in the transmitter pod with him it's the beginning of his slow transformation into a literal and figurative monster and the film's true villain. Stathis was just an Unwitting Instigator of Doom with his actions, compounded by Deuteragonist Veronica's mistake. Stathis returns to the narrative in the third act as the despondent Veronica's confidant, and he slowly becomes a Hero Antagonist whose actions are as important to the climax as anyone else's.

Walhart the Conqueror from Fire Emblem: Awakening has no connection to the game's main story arc involving Plegia and the Religion of Evil that seeks to revive the Fell Dragon Grima, he's simply the ruler of a foreign Empire who happens to invade at the time. He mainly exists to give the game's second act an Arc Villain, while the main plot of this act involves simply gathering MacGuffins for the Fire Emblem. The only real plot relevant role he serves is having someone for Basilio to pretend to die fighting, and one of his underlings secretly working for the Grimleal (although this is only revealed in throwaway dialogue and isn't relevant in the grand scheme of things).

The Killer That Stalked New York, a 1950 film Very Loosely Based on the 1947 New York City smallpox outbreak: Whereas the Big Bad is smallpox causing an outbreak in New York City and The Heavy is Patient Zero Sheila Bennet for (unknowingly) spreading the disease, the villain of the story is Sheila's husband Matt, who doesn't affect the outbreak but who is really terrible to Sheila in several ways.

American Mary has Ruby's husband as a minor villain — so minor, in fact, that he isn't even named. He appears in literally two scenes, and his only role in the plot was killing Mary at the end, and even then, it comes off as a Diabolus ex Machina to keep Mary from being a Karma Houdini.

Alice in Wonderland: There's not much of a plot to begin with, but the Queen of Hearts appears during the last twenty minutes of the film, after Alice has been through all sorts of wacky adventures and wishes to return home. She does make her wish that more than ever, though...

Mrs. Brisby has to deal with a lot of danger to learn the The Secret of NIMH and save her son. At the same time the rats of NIMH are threatened by the titular organisation and have to take action to survive. The scheming rat Jenner, who is a member of the group, doesn't have anything to do with either of those plots, as he appears late in the story and tries to merely seize the opportunity to take over. In fact he comes across as very deluded and as vulnerable as the other rodents to the scientists who chase them and his power-hungry plans are doomed from the start, making the threat that he poses to the heroes unreasonable even for a megalomaniac.

Kazar the wildebeest in The Wild has nothing to do with the main conflict of Ryan accidentally ending up in the wild, and doesn't actually enter the plot until the main group ends up in Africa about halfway through the movie. He mainly exists to make the goal of rescuing Ryan from Africa before the volcano erupts more difficult, and to tie up Samson's arc by having him fight an actual wildebeest.

Hotel Transylvania: While a few outside factors interfere with the plot, there's no central threat, apart from Quasimodo's small role and the peasants who murdered Dracula's wife all of the conflict comes from Dracula just trying to keep his daughter safe.
Bela from Hotel Transylvania 2. He enters the narrative in the third act alongside Vlad, and does nothing but hang around seething with fanatical, murderous loathing for humans while his boss Vlad actually interacts with the main characters. Bela eventually, and with very little in the way of a trigger, calls in an army of his brethren just so there can be a climactic final battle, after playing a minor role in triggering Dennis to prove he is a vampire. His main purpose is to relieve Dracula of the antagonist role he's carried up to then by allowing him to finally act in the interests of his family and grandson, but the fight scene jars with the rest of the plot.

Octopath Traveler: The endgame reveals that all of the travelers' main antagonists have some connection to Lyblac and her plot to resurrect Galdera. The sole exception is Miguel Twinspears, who's the closest thing Alfyn has to a main antagonist; he's just a mercenary turned criminal who forces Alfyn to realize that not all lives are worth saving.

Gary Oak in the first season of Pokémon: The Original Series. He's a Jerkass antagonist to Ash for absolutely no reason, and continually antagonizes him in ways that never add anything to the story. In his defense, the anime was originally only going to last through this first season before the franchise became such a phenomenon, and the original ending had Ash vs. Gary as the final battle, so had that happened, his previous antagonism would have actually been building the rivalry up so that the story's climax was more satisfying. Incidentally, this ends up happening in the Johto season, but by that time, he had already lost most of his Jerkass tendencies.

Although he's a very memorable character, the plot of The Nightmare Before Christmas happens without Oogie Boogie, and the Final Battle happens after the climax as a way of tying off loose ends rather than causing any resolution or character development (specifically, a need for Jack to visibly demonstrate his repentance for ruining Christmas to Santa Claus). Tellingly, in the original poem (found on the blu-ray narrated by Christopher Lee), Oogie Boogie doesn't appear at all despite the movie following the rest of the poem. However, Oogie does fill the Plot Hole regarding Santa's whereabouts during the climax. Averted in the prequel and sequel video games, where his origins and taking revenge on Santa and Jack (respectively) are the basis of the plot.

The Punisher (2017): The main plot is Frank Castle hunting down the people behind Project Cerberus and the massacre of his family. The subplot of Lewis Wilson going from PTSD sufferer to Timothy McVeigh-esque terrorist and going on a rampage has absolutely no relationship to this at all, but it do provides a Deliberately Bad Example to measure Frank against.
