Revenge Myopia	comment	It's relatively common that the reason that Alice wants to kill Bob is that Bob killed Charlie. Revenge seems pretty straightforward. But it gets a lot murkier when Charlie was trying to kill Bob first and Bob was just defending himself. They were in a war, it was a fight, Charlie surprised Bob at the worst time, it was an accident, the list goes on. Bob didn't really want to kill Charlie and would have avoided doing so if possible. It's likely Bob regrets it greatly. But all of that doesn't matter to Alice. Bob has to pay for what he did to Charlie. Supertrope to Avenging the Villain, but there are also other cases that it covers where Charlie wasn't specifically killed for committing and/or trying to commit evil. For example, this also applies when: Grey-and-Gray Morality is in effect, such as (but not limited to) wars and family feuds where both sides are flawed/justified to an extent at some point. Charlie is a good guy. Charlie was Not Himself, being possessed or such. Charlie was going about his business when a fatal accident happened, even if he was an Evil Empire mook. A Revenge by Proxy scenario can result. This may be a part of a Feuding Families or Cycle of Vengeance situation. A subtrope of Moral Myopia. Again, if the one killed was a villain, the example goes in Avenging the Villain. Rage Against the Legal System is this when the rager is a genuine criminal. See also Revenge Before Reason. Expect angst and drama and unmarked spoilers.

Revenge Myopia / int_10175749	comment	Black Manta in Aquaman wants to kill Aquaman because Aquaman killed his father. Well, "didn't save" his father. See, Black Manta and his father were pirates who were hijacking a submarine (which involved killing crewmembers), and Aquaman intervened. Aquaman was ready to walk away, when Black Manta's father attacked him, ending up pinned and dying as the sub filled with water. Black Manta begged Aquaman for mercy, and Aquaman refused (not unreasonable, considering the father had just proven he'd take advantage of mercy). Black Manta not only has all the facts, but he witnessed the entire thing and still blames Aquaman.

Never mind the fact that Johnny was a psychopathic gangster who was quite willing to murder innocent people just for being in his way. The fact that he orchestrates the death of his surviving child, who is Tequila's wife, just to spite Tequila only makes it worse.

Revenge Myopia / int_18596868	comment	In Memoirs of a Geisha, Pumpkin enacts her revenge on Sayuri by trying to sabotage her budding relationship with the Chairman. This is payback for Pumpkin not being adopted by Mrs Nitta back when they were in the okiya and losing everything as a result. Except that Pumpkin never had a chance of being adopted, because Mrs Nitta was savvy that Pumpkin would only be Hatsumomo's puppet - and she chose to adopt Sayuri mainly because she didn't want to have to put up with Hatsumomo (and fears that Hatsumomo would use her influence to have them ungratefully thrown out on the street). Sayuri actually begged Mrs Nitta to adopt both of them in an attempt to save Pumpkin, but that doesn't happen again because of Hatsumomo. And when World War II hit, it was Mrs Nitta who kicked Pumpkin out of the okiya because they couldn't afford to keep her.

Revenge Myopia / int_1d051dc8	comment	Grave Peril reveals that Bianca's motivation for revenge against Harry (and the entire White Council) is because he caused one of her prostitute employees' deaths back in Storm Front. The sequence of events went like this: Bianca attacked Harry when he came to question her about the case he was on (which she legitimately had nothing to do with), and he defended himself and left. Afterwards, she fed on the prostitute but was so shaken up that she accidentally killed the girl. Not only does she not acknowledge her role in the debacle, she didn't even know the woman's name (Harry does- her name was Rachel). She may have been manipulated by Nemesis into provoking the White Council to weaken the general supernatural world.

In The Unknown Supergirl, Lesla nullified Supergirl's powers because she was pettily jealousy of Kara's future fame. Then she brainwashed and replaced Supergirl, intending to kill Superman and Luthor and then take over the world, but she was caught by the Kandorian police before she could carry her scheme out. In a nutshell, Kara did nothing to earn her enmity, Kara was not the one who brought Lesla down, and Kara did not even know Lesla exists.

Revenge Myopia / int_247422c7	comment	Honor Harrington: Solarian Fleet Admiral Rajampet Rajani states, in no uncertain terms, that he does not care how justified the Manticorans believed they were in killing Admiral Josef Byng, and goes on to say he doesn't care how justified they actually were. His biggest concern is the blow to the Solarian League Navy's prestige their actions have caused and the precedents it could set. This attitude is not helped by the fact that the Manticorans keep Curb Stomping his navy. In Shadow of Victory/Uncompromising Honor, when Manticore comes knocking on Mesa's door, Albrecht Detweiler, leader of the Mesan Alignment, kills himself and his wife with a nuke, triggering more nuclear weapons across Mesa, preventing the Manticorans from finding further proof about the Alignment and framing them for the attack. What do their children do? Organize the destruction of Beowulf's three main space habitats, totaling 43 million people - all because their father killed himself and their mother.

Sure, never mind the fact that Kuyou is a human-hating Knight Templar who abused his status as the head of the Student Police to make everyone at Yokai Academy miserable, and Tsukune defeated him after Kuyou threatened his friends and nearly killed him by burning him alive, purely because he was a human.

Revenge Myopia / int_2efd38a0	comment	Pops up frequently in My Adventures with Superman. Amanda Waller and Sam Lane wanted revenge on Superman because they were Improperly Paranoid and believed he either had ties to or was the mysterious Kryptonian that slaughtered their comrades decades prior. After talking to him Lane realizes that he couldn't possibly be involved, but Waller was a Tautological Templar who refused to entertain the idea she might be wrong and was perfectly willing to hurt even more innocent people in the process for the sake of The Needs of the Many. Mad Scientist Dr. Ivo/Parasite blamed Superman for his downfall, in spite of the fact that he started the fight and Supes saved him from being Hoist by His Own Petard. He was a Psychopathic Manchild to begin with, but losing to Superman triggered severe Sanity Slippage. Furthermore, Ivo's Servile Snarker assistant Alex blamed Superman for him losing his job and contributed to a hit piece against him, disregarding the fact that the company was already failing due to Ivo's mismanagement.

Revenge Myopia / int_30a5ebfd	comment	Naruto: Sasuke starts to fall into this as his sanity goes off the deep end. At first, his revenge plan is reasonable; he just wants to kill Itachi for murdering his entire family (plus mind raping him). Then Itachi dies, and he finds out that Itachi was a good guy all along, but was pressured into killing the Uchihas because they were going to revolt (and his torture of Sasuke was to make his Faceâ€“Heel Turn more believable without having to kill his beloved little brother). So Sasuke shifts his revenge to Danzo, the guy who pressured Itachi to kill his clan, ignoring that the Uchihas provoked it by threatening civil war because they felt mistrusted (Mind you, Danzo was responsible for that very mistrust along with a lot of other, and even less justified, atrocities and nobody would be all that sorry to see him go, but that's not what Sasuke was thinking about. Danzo even points out that it doesn't matter what he actually did, because Sasuke was on a revenge kick and wanted to hurt someone for the Uchiha massacre.). And once Danzo dies, he shifts his revenge to everyone in Konoha for being happy at the same time his brother was suffering.

But when Lizzie bluntly told her that she would need to change her ways to have a successful career (something Lydia wasn't interested in), Lydia was offended and remained furious for a long time, viciously criticizing Lizzie and guilt-tripping her about Lizzie's fear of abandonment and lack of people skills.

Revenge Myopia / int_334f9ddc	comment	In Injustice: Gods Among Us, Harley Quinn's main motivation is to get revenge on Superman for his killing of the Joker. What Harley appears to have conveniently forgotten is that the Joker got himself killed on purpose by tricking Superman into killing his wife Lois Lane and their unborn child, thus activating a detonator the Joker rigged to her heart that activated when she died and detonated a nuke that destroyed the city of Metropolis, then going out of his way to torment Superman over this, which he did purely because he was tired of always losing to Batman and wanted to get an easy win over Superman. Or that she herself was complicit in the Joker's actions. So Superman's actions were entirely justified, while Harley clearly has a bad case of Never My Fault about the whole thing. Which is very typical for Harley's character in general, as far as she and her Puddin' are concerned. By the sequel she's grown out of this and opposes Superman purely for moral reasons while admitting that she has far too much blood on her own hands to expect forgiveness.

Revenge Myopia / int_35e05f2a	comment	In RWBY, Hazel Rainart sided with Salem because he blames Ozpin for his little sister's death. Ozpin did not kill his little sister, commit Murder by Inaction, kill her in an Uriah Gambit, or anything like that. Ozpin just accepted her application to Beacon (which was presumably at the age that every other student gets there), and she was killed by a Grimm on a training mission. So he's allied with Salem (who commands the Grimm) to take down Beacon, and thus making sure that even more teenagers suffer his sister's fate. While he hasn't grasped the hypocrisy of his actions, his later reasoning for siding with her (aside from how she's a powerful immortal and that he went with the logic of if you can't beat them, join them) is because of how Ozpin lures people into his shadow war yet leaves the Awful Truth that they're in a Forever War out of it.

Revenge Myopia / int_39bd4a10	comment	Slade Wilson aka Deathstroke has a bad history with this: In his first story arc, Deathstroke blamed the Titans for the death of his eldest son Grant. Except a) the only reason Grant died was that he underwent the same super soldier experiment that gave Slade his powers but which proved fatal to Grant and b) Grant died trying to kill the Titans. And despite not wanting his son to follow the same path as him, Slade chooses to blame the Titans for Grant's death rather than go after H.I.V.E., the organization that performed the fatal experiment on Grant. In Infinite Crisis, Slade destroyed BlÃ¼dhaven, the city Nightwing protected by dropping the super villain Chemo, a monster made of radioactive energies, into it. When confronted by Batman, Nightwing, and Robin (Tim Drake) Slade goes into a rant about how Nightwing had turned his family against him when in reality Slade had either turned his back on his family or did a good enough job on making them hate him himself. Interestingly Slade did learn a lesson after this, arranging a complex gambit to get his children Jericho and Rose to fully embrace the Titans as family because he felt he couldn't be a good father to them.

Revenge Myopia / int_3aeb1c75	comment	Dragon Ball: Both the Crane Hermit and Tien Shinhan are furious at Goku for killing Mercenary Tao, their younger brother and mentor, respectively. Goku calls them out on it, pointing out that Tao was a Psycho for Hire who was hired by the Red Ribbon Army to kill him and killed one of his friends, and he was only defending himself; neither of them cares. Though Tien later gets over himself and becomes one of Goku's allies. Dr. Gero wants Goku dead because Goku destroyed the Red Ribbon Army and cost him his funding. This is ignoring the fact that the Red Ribbons were an evil group who terrorized innocent people and wanted to Take Over the World, and Gero willingly built killer robots to help them. Later material elaborates that Gero also wanted to avenge his son, who died fighting for the army, but it's still incredibly myopic considering that Gero's son still died for a leader who didn't care and a cause that would've made the world a worse place.

When he goes to confront his uncle, Lord de Winter, who also played a role in the execution, de Winter explains to his nephew how awful Milady was and all the terrible things she did. Mordaunt responds by saying quite clearly that he doesn't care. De Winter and the Musketeers killed his mother, and so he's going to kill them in revenge.

Try telling that to Mariya's other students, who are hunting for Jin throughout the series to avenge him. Particularly notable is Not-So-Harmless Villain Ogura Bunta, who managed to hold his own against Jin when he finally encountered him. The shame of his defeat, however, caused Bunta to be Driven to Suicide, according to Jin's Unknown Rival Yukimaru. For his part, Yukimaru doesn't care about their master, and just wants to kill Jin to absorb the reputation of the thousand man killer.

Revenge Myopia / int_6e1d5f36	comment	Farscape: In the very first episode, Crichton accidentally crashes into a ship piloted by Bialar Crais' brother, killing him instantly. Crais becomes insanely obsessed with ferreting out Crichton and killing him, an obsession that lasts most of the first season, to the point where eventually Crais loses his job because his priorities are entirely focused on revenge — despite the fact that Crichton continually tries to convince him that it was an accident. In an episode where an Evil Sorcerer brings both of them (or, at least, their minds) into his "temple", he does his best to fuel Crais's desire for revenge. Crichton once actually manages to almost convince Crais that it wasn't Crichton's fault by pointing at simple facts: Crichton's Farscape One pod is nowhere near as advanced as a Peacekeeper Prowler (no weapons, minimal defenses, pitiful maneuverability), so there's no way his brother's death could have been intentional. Unfortunately, Malgus chooses this moment to show an image of his brother burning to death, knowing how Crais will react. After Crais becomes a temporary ally, he admits that his own career was waning, and he was projecting this frustration onto his brother's "killer".

When Lindon was faced with Kral, an opponent far above him, he bowed politely, reminded Kral that the two of them had no real quarrel, and promised to leave. Kral seemingly accepted this, then dropped a poison cloud on Lindon's head when his back was turned. Lindon managed to kill him. Jai Long called this a dirty trick and murder, and Lindon is only saved by Eithan revealing that he is by far the most powerful person in the room. When Jai Long relates this story to Kral's father and Jai Long's sister, he still speaks of it as murder, and in their later duel, he repeatedly calls Lindon a coward for using tricks against a stronger opponent instead of just dying.

Harrison seeks revenge on Admiral Marcus and ends up killing Christopher Pike in his attack on the admiral. Pike's death then drives Kirk to swear revenge on Harrison.

So in retaliation, he murdered her father in New Krypton, tried to kill and rape her several times in story arcs like Who is Superwoman?, Codename: Patriot and The Hunt for Reactron-, and in War of Supermen he murdered her mother and blew up her planet and race. In Action Comics #544: Luthor Unleashed, Lex Luthor has been living on planet Lexor for a while, where he's hailed as a hero and cherished by his wife and son. Even so, he goads Superman into Lexor and attempts to kill him. During the battle, Luthor's warsuit shoots a blast which accidentally hits one of his doomsday devices. Lexor blows up, Lex's family dies, and Luthor, who is all but physically unable to take responsibility for his own actions, swears revenge on Superman. The Girl with the X-Ray Mind: After escaping prison, Lesla-Lar plots her revenge against Supergirl, even though Supergirl literally did nothing to Lesla. In The Unknown Supergirl, Lesla nullified Supergirl's powers because she was pettily jealousy of Kara's future fame. Then she brainwashed and replaced Supergirl, intending to kill Superman and Luthor and then take over the world, but she was caught by the Kandorian police before she could carry her scheme out. In a nutshell, Kara did nothing to earn her enmity, Kara was not the one who brought Lesla down, and Kara did not even know Lesla exists. The Leper from Krypton: Criminal ringleader Ventor wants to kill Superman to avenge his brother Bruno, not caring that his brother would not have died in prison if he had not committed crimes that forced Superman to catch him. The story makes a point that Bruno's death has eroded Ventor's sanity, though, since he alternates between declaring he'll avenge his brother's death and claiming his brother is still alive and he will kill Superman to protect Buno. Who is Superwoman?: Sam Lane seeks revenge against Supergirl for the death of his daughter, the titular villain. This is ignoring the fact that Superwoman died because her super-suit malfunctioned while she was attempting to murder Supergirl. This is also ignoring the fact that Superwoman both put on that suit and started that battle at Lane's behest.

Revenge Myopia / int_90b916ba	comment	Batman: The Animated Series: The Clock King, Temple Fugate, is obsessed with taking revenge against Mayor Hill. Years ago, Hill gave him some advice, which essentially boiled down to "take a coffee break at a different time than normal to try and relax", and Fugate taking this advice inadvertently led to him losing a $20 million court case. Fugate devotes his entire life to revenge against Hill, believing Hill somehow did it on purpose because he belonged to the law firm that had filed the case. He completely rejects the notion that Hill had genuinely tried to help him and holds onto the idea that Hill somehow did it on purpose, even though Hill barely knew him (even forgetting his name when they first spoke) and that there's no way that is how Hill would have tried to sabotage him. This is The Mad Hatter's, well, hat. In his first appearance he becomes so obsessed with gaining the affections of a girl Alice he begins brainwashing everyone around her to make it happen and, when all else fails, he brainwashes her as well. When Batman calls him out on this, he very briefly reflects on what he's done before simply blaming Batman for "forcing him to do it". He holds this revenge-grudge against Batman for the remainder of the series, and this even becomes his "testimony" in Trial for how "Batman created him" even though he had become the villainous Mad Hatter before Batman even got involved.

Carl and Donut manage to escape them, though Carl leaves behind a trap he hopes they might trigger. Later, he meets them again and finds out that their daughter was injured by the trap, and Maggie had to Mercy Kill her because she was wearing a magic ring that prevented healing. Both of them want to kill Carl for this, even though he was reasonably defending himself and didn't know anyone else was with them. Frank is at least self-aware enough to know he's a hypocrite, he just wants revenge anyway, but Maggie really does think that everything is Carl's fault, and ruins several other lives trying to get to him.

The heroes thrived on punishing them for trying to steal the title stone and ruin dreams (often far more severely than the crime itself). They never take notice of the fact they are The Drag-Along in every instance, either due to being Press-Ganged by Sgt Blob and Urpgor or because Zordrak threatens to execute them if they don't. It's implied the heroes went through a great few Urpneys in this manner before Zordrak simply got bored of offing minions. Later episodes try to make the heroes more pragmatic, as well as give them a much better provocation so their vendetta seems more proportionate, though the fact nearly all Urpneys are unwilling slaves is still never remotely brought up between them.

Khan ignores the fact that Kirk, in simply exiling Khan to his own planet, was more charitable than he had to be given Khan's actions both on the Enterprise and as a fugitive from international justice 300 years ago. Kirk could have easily taken Khan and his people back to Earth and put them in the hands of Federation justice, which might end in a number of ways unfavorable to Khan, his crew, and his girlfriend. Plus, Kirk left them on a very nice planet, and it's hardly his fault it underwent a drastic climate change and Khan's wife died.

An exception, however, is "Neighbors", in which Dan learns that new neighbors (who are much nicer and Dan never liked to begin with) are now moving next door to him. It takes a pie they baked him to fall on his car to finally take revenge on them, ignoring the fact that Dan was the one who dropped the pie on his own car in the first place. Interestingly inverted in "Telemarketers", where Dan's imposter stalks and tortures Dan via telemarketing as revenge for getting him locked up in "Dan", which was for trying to steal Dan's identity and life in the latter episode.

Revenge Myopia / int_98b697e9	comment	Scream: Many of the villains fall into this trap. Scream (1996): Billy Loomis murdered Sidney's mother and framed an innocent man for it because she had an affair with his father, which led to his mother abandoning him. The following year, he goes on to murder five other people (three by disembowelment) who had nothing to do with his family falling apart and try to frame Sidney's father for it, all because he hates Sidney's family that much. (Two of their victims, Casey Becker and Steve Orth, are implied to have been picked out by Billy's accomplice Stu Macher, because Casey broke up with Stu to date Steve.) Not once does Billy realize that it takes two to tango and hold his father responsible for his part in the affair. Scream 2: Debbie Loomis, Billy's mother, wants revenge on Sidney for killing him. Never mind the fact that Sidney killed Billy in self-defense after Billy did all the things listed above, not to mention how her own abandonment of Billy played a lot into his psychosis in the first place. But she's sick of people using that old Blame Game on her. She even attempts to get Cotton Weary in on this, noting Sidney falsely accused him of the crimes her son committed and intentionally framed him for. Scream 3: Roman Bridger, Sidney's half-brother, is revealed to have been the one who manipulated Billy into killing Sidney's mother and going on a murder spree. He did all this because he hated Sidney for having the mother he didn't and for getting the fame that he felt he was owed. Except Sidney didn't even know about him and it is made quite clear that none of the fame she has as a survivor of the Ghostface murders is worth the years of isolation and mental trauma she has endured. This is the point where Sidney has flat-out had enough of killers targeting her for such petty reasons and calls Roman a selfish brat who refuses to accept responsibility for his actions and only kills people because he enjoys it. In Scream VI, the Bailey family wants revenge on Sam for killing Richie in Scream (2022). They even extend this to everyone else that was connected to his death and are willing to kill random bystanders who get in the way of killing their targets. The fact that he instigated a murder rampage that left six innocent people dead and died trying to murder the woman who ultimately did him in and all for the pettiest motivation of any Ghostface (being a Loony Fan of a film series who hated the direction the most recent film took and wanted to create his own murder spree to inspire a better sequel) is immaterial.

Revenge Myopia / int_9d47a2a2	comment	In A Song of Ice and Fire Lord Karstark wants revenge against Jaime Lannister for killing two of his sons. He does this by killing two of Jaime's relatives who were held captive, killing several men allied with him to get to them. It's pointed out that killing defenseless prisoners and your own allies is not the same as killing an enemy in battle, but the distinction seems lost on him since he's basically half-mad with anger and grief by that point. This also extends to his soldiers: Karstark's execution by Robb Stark for murder causes them to abandon House Stark, their rightful liege lord, despite the fact that their lord did break the law and was punished accordingly. There are other instances where someone (Balon Greyjoy, the Sand Snakes) acknowledges that the people they spent years plotting revenge against are all dead, yet they still want revenge against their house. It gets rather ridiculous with Balon, who blames Ned for the death of his eldest son because Ned fought on the opposite side to Balon and his, one of Balon's sons having died in a battle Ned wasn't even present for. Granted, Ned also held his last son hostage. The Martells seek vengeance against Ser Amory Lorch, Ser Gregor Clegane, and his liege lord Tywin Lannister for the murder of Princess Elia Martell and her children during the overthrow of the regime that she married into. True, it was war and the children were in line to the throne, but it was a particularly brutal and unnecessary murder. Tywin tries to get around it by blaming all the murders on Lorch after their death. Oberyn Martell is granted the chance to fight the Mountain in a duel...and when he loses fair and square, his children, the Sand Snakes, start clamoring for revenge against the Lannisters for his death, even though Gregor admitted his crimes and died rather agonizingly of his wounds anyway, and Lord Tywin died of unrelated causes (namely, Tyrion finally getting fed up with his father and killing him). Cersei Lannister is also guilty of this after A Storm of Swords, where she loses both her eldest and most beloved son and her father. She constantly sends people out to hunt Tyrion down, despite the fact that her eldest son was a psychopath who wasn't even killed by Tyrion (instead poisoned by Olenna Tyrell, who refused to let such a monster marry her granddaughter Margaery) and that her father really had it coming; not only was he about to execute Tyrion under false pretenses because he was The Unfavorite for being a dwarf (and because Tywin's wife died giving birth to him), but Tyrion had just found out that Tywin falsely led him to think that his commoner wife was a whore. It was really just a matter of time before somebody whom Tywin and/or Joffrey wronged succeeded in killing them, but Cersei doesn't see it that way.

It's made clear that his reform and desire to help the woman in any way he can in penance for his crime are genuine.

However, Renly was trying to usurp the throne which Stannis had more right to and intended to kill his brother despite Stannis offering to make them his heir. Brienne even has the audacity to call Renly "the rightful King" before she murders Stannis. Unsurprisingly this change has proved very controversial, making Brienne The Scrappy for many viewers. Following the death of Oberyn Martell in a legal trial-by-combat against the Mountain, Ellaria Sand and her Sand Snakes become obsessed with revenge to levels that go above and beyond "murderous bitch" — they murder Oberyn's brother and nephew to seize power in Oberyn's "name" and are also responsible for the murder of Myrcella Baratheon, and they don't intend to stop there. Even Cersei's detractors can easily find themselves rooting for her over the Sands when she takes revenge on the last two survivors in Season 7.

This is revenge for the bullying she has been suffering her entire life, which admittedly many of her classmates did take part in. But the incident that triggers this is the prank that Chris and Billy pulled; no one else at the prom knew about it and, while they laugh at first, it's out of shock rather than maliciousness. Some of the people who get killed in the conflict were actually nice to her, ironically enough. The adaptations play around with this; the 2002 movie has Carrie go into a complete trance when the revenge happens, and she doesn't even remember anything when she comes out of it. The 2013 one has her spare people who were nice to her (such as Miss Desjardin) and actively target her tormentors (in this version, far more people are implied to have been in on the prank).

Revenge Myopia / int_c3aeab6a	comment	In Mystery Skulls Animated, Lewis has come back as a ghost hellbent on getting revenge on Arthur for his murder. Unfortunately, he is either unaware or doesn't care that Arthur was possessed at the time and was visibly horrified at Lewis's murder at his own hand. Further complicating matters, Arthur seems to have forgotten Lewis's death and is now desperately seeking his missing friend on a visible lack of sleep that may be causing hallucinations meaning he's not likely to recognize Lewis's flaming skeletal ghost and wouldn't be able to even try and explain what really happened if he did.

She's completely ignorant that her village was a horrible place to live, that the villagers there were under duress and threatened with imprisonment and borderline torture for any dissent, or that the entire reason Twilight ruined it was in order to free herself and her friends after being kidnapped, imprisoned, and borderline tortured into joining her cult. Queen Chrysalis sought revenge against Starlight some time after she reformed. Starlight's crime? For saving her friends and the heads of Equestria after Chrysalis kidnapped them in order to take over Equestria herself and for inspiring her Changelings subordinates to give love rather than take it and disown her as their ruler, especialyl when she makes it clear she's only doign this for herself.

Except a) the only reason Grant died was that he underwent the same super soldier experiment that gave Slade his powers but which proved fatal to Grant and b) Grant died trying to kill the Titans. And despite not wanting his son to follow the same path as him, Slade chooses to blame the Titans for Grant's death rather than go after H.I.V.E., the organization that performed the fatal experiment on Grant.

Revenge Myopia / int_cd63e81d	comment	This crops up a few times in the Ace Attorney franchise: Manfred von Karma blames Gregory Edgeworth for ruining his perfect trial record so much that after he was murdered in the DL-6 incident, von Karma took in his son Miles and raised him to be a cold and ruthless prosecutor, the kind that his father fought valiantly against. And, for good measure, it turns out von Karma is the one who murdered Gregory -- he tries to frame Edgeworth for the murder of the man who defended the man who was falsely accused of Gregory's murder years ago, and when Phoenix and Maya disprove that, he tries to convince the court that he's not the one who fatally shot Gregory. The thing is, the only reason Gregory was able to put a mark on von Karma's record was that von Karma brutally interrogated Jeffrey Masters, the suspect of the IS-7 incident and Isaac Dover's murder, by threatening to indict his daughter for the crime; Master finally broke down and gave a false confession to protect her, but Gregory was able to prove in court that it was manufactured, forcing von Karma to take the penalty. But Investigations 2 adds another layer by revealing the fact that von Karma did this because the chief prosecutor, Blaise Debeste, conjured up a false autopsy report (because they couldn't find Isaac Dover's body) and lied to von Karma about it, presenting it as real, which drove him to extort the false confession so they would have something to take to court and make the indictment stick. Dahlia Hawthorne considers Mia Fey her mortal enemy for catching her over several murders she committed. In revenge, she works with her mother on an overly-elaborate plan that involves her being channeled after her execution so that she can murder Mia's sister...after Mia herself was already dead. Eesh...

Said brother was leading an unprovoked invasion of the Nephites at the time, conquering cities and slaughtering the inhabitants, on a mission to drink the blood of their chief captain, and his death was in the field, at the hands of an enemy soldier, with a standard weapon. (And why did he want to drink Moroni's blood? Because Moroni's innovative city defences foiled the previous unprovoked invasion.) Ignoring all this, Ammoron calls it murder and wants revenge.

Because he tried to brutally and permanently maim her and erase her memory of it. And why would he do that? To get revenge for her family pushing his out of the joke-inventing business — except that the real reason for that happening was because his father, finding himself falling behind, turned to inventing Deadly Prank items that caused legal trouble and had to be recalled, so shops like Zonko's didn't want to do business with him. The Marauders didn't even push him out of the market deliberately, they just invented better products. Nonetheless, Lee blames the Marauders for all his problems, and wants to watch "Rigel" die slowly and painfully as their hope for the future, nevermind that Harry has already told him she's not interested in going into the business.

Revenge Myopia / int_de6659ec	comment	Once Upon a Time: Regina's vendetta against Snow White was because the girl was partly responsible for getting her fiance killed. Except it was Regina's mother Cora who did the actual killing. Snow did reveal the secret she'd promised to keep, but it was mainly because of Cora worming it out of her. Season 2 however started showing more backstory to reveal that Rumpelstiltskin slowly corrupted her over several years (with Regina trying to move past the incident at first), exploiting this for his master plan. This seems to run in the family; when Regina's half-sister Zelena shows up, she wants revenge on Regina for getting everything instead of her. Except Regina had no clue Zelena even existed, let alone that Cora had another child. It was their mother who decided to abandon her firstborn so as to not inconvenience her social climbing. But since Cora was first trapped in another dimension and later Killed Off for Real by the time Zelena came to power, Regina was an easier target to focus on. This defined the relationship between Captain Hook and Rumplestiltskin. Hook had fallen in love with Rumple's wife, Milah. Rather than leave a Dear John letter, Milah and Hook faked her kidnapping and let the then-human Rumplestiltskin and his son believe she had been murdered by pirates. When the current Dark One Rumplestiltskin found out about the deception, however, he murdered Milah and cut off Hook's hand. Swearing revenge, Hook vowed to find a way to kill him. However, since Rumplestiltskin is near-unstoppable as the Dark One, most of Hook's attempts have involved hurting Rumplestiltskin's true love, Belle, who has never done anything to Hook.

Unfortunately, his son Danny overreacts and rouses half the settlement to resisting (and dying). The militia may be bad guys, but this particular scene was a pretty clear-cut case of self-defense. The heroes don't see it that way. "No Quarter" has one militia soldier guilty of it as well, in a far more blatant and infuriating fashion. Danny Matheson kills one of the militiamen (Templeton) and the friend of this militiaman (Private Richards) gives this speech about how "that soldier had a name and a family", clearly trying to up the guilt for Danny's "senseless slaughter". When Danny coldly points out that said soldier killed Danny's father first, just seconds earlier, as the first shot fired in the battle, the soldier's friend simply chuckles and says, "Well, let's be honest, that was no big loss."
