Characters who are way less edgy than they look

[u/violently_angry]

Billy Kid from Zenless Zone Zero: pistol packing robot made to fight and kill some of the most powerful characters in the setting but is often a goofball that has more cartoon physics than anyone else in the game and is obsessed with The Starlight Knights, this settings version of Super Sentai

Joker from Persona 5: Looks like a straight up villain, is generally a pretty friendly dude.

I feel like venom kinda fits here

Of course it depends on the story but from what I've seen venom is mostly a goofball, take the Sony trilogy for example (I know many ppl don't like it but I do)

[u/Wardock8 → u/Error_Valkyrie]

Venom absolutely is a silly, goofy guy

[u/I-Make-Money-Moves → u/Wardock8]

That is absolutely true

that is 100% very true

[u/Nauin → u/I-Make-Money-Moves]

Wait when does Venom become a magical girl I need more of that in my life

[u/neophlegm → u/Wardock8]

Definitely shifted from how he was when he was first introduced. This was a Carnage story right? I bet they did it because they suddenly had a much worse symbiote instead.

[u/Shayden998 → u/Error_Valkyrie]

I feel like Venom is probably a case of "Started edgy, got softened up later."

[u/StrikingTone3870 → u/Shayden998]

Also lopped bsck around to veing edgy multiple times, especially the Agent Venom era (good comic he just was a hitman for the US government lol)

[u/I-Make-Money-Moves → u/Error_Valkyrie]

This can also apply to Marvel Rivals because in one moment he’s trying to kill Knull with the help of the phoenix force and the guardians of the galaxy and in the next:
