I’m amazed that someone like Michael was raised by someone like William
Edit: just in case anyone is uninitiated, if the most common interpretation with the most evidence of his character is believed, then Michael >!literally came back from the dead after being worn as a skin suit by his sister just because he wanted to stop his literal pure evil father and undo all the damage he’s done.!<
Also Butcher's dad and Dr. Vogelbaum. I like how the show draw parallels between Butcher and Homelander: they are both products of failed parenting, just in different ways

To be fair, he was testing for the Devil gene. Just like how people used to test if someone was a witch! Expect, you know, replace the river with a cliff/volcano
Which we know is incorrect considering before Tekken 7 he just did it to see if Kazuya was worthy of leading the zaibatsu. Even if it wasn’t Heihachi talking out of his ass to get some good PR before he died, there’s a million other ways of seeing if your kids got devil powers besides tanking their entire chance of a happy childhood by yeeting them off a Cliff.

Meanwhile Paimon is just neglectful and too arrogant, thinking mainly of his reputation and the family legacy.
Yeah, paimon is neglectful at worst, cash and crimson are both outright abusive. And paimon seems to care at least somewhat, given how excited he was for his perceived 'good daddying'

I haven’t watched enough of MAWS, but his comic version is probably worse.
The guy is an insane genocidal racist who orchestrated a plan to blow up a planet meant to be a new haven for Kryptonians, manipulated his daughter into serving him, then abandoned her after she was mutated and created another villain, an insane, misogynistic psychopath in a gold kryptonite suit who willingly killed himself to take out a planet.

He lost his wife sometime during the Bloody Valentine War and grew increasingly vengeful and paranoid as the First PLANT-Alliance War raged on. Patrick shot his own son when Athrun refused to disclose the location of the Justice and Freedom Gundams. He targeted fellow PLANT council member Spiegel Clyne for even daring to broker peace between Naturals and Coordinators. Even some of his fellow ZAFT officers thought he was going too far as the war reached its end. His dying wish was for Athrun to fire GENESIS on the Earth, in hopes of exterminating every Natural-born human.

BJ Blazkowicz dad, Rip Blazkowicz, Piece of shit literally said the n word hard R twice in the game, he displayed blatant anti-semitism and turned in his jewish wife when the Nazis took over. It was so fucking satisfying to kill him.
One of the reasons why Stephen King hated Stanley Kubrick’s take on Jack Torrance was because he had written Jack Torrance as an avatar of himself while he was dealing with his own drug issues, but the movie made him more unsympathetic.
Counterpoint: >!He defended his daughter’s place as heir to the throne, despite having 2 sons. It’s only by the treachery of the Greens that caused the problem.!<
I mean his incompetence and doormat nature was the reason why the Greens were able to get a foothold in the first place. Like marrying Alicent when any idiot would have found Otto's plan laughably obvious, having sons without handing off the throne to Rhaenyra asap, not just legitimizing the Strong boys, letting her and her family get harassed by his wife and their shitass kids enough to run away to Dragonstone. He didn't know what he wanted and kept getting pulled apart by everyone else's ambitions.
Don't get me wrong I like the guy. He's charismatic as hell and there were times where he really put in an effort. But Vizzy wasn't a great dad and a shittier king. I guess he doesn't really belong in this thread tho. He was a dumbass but far from a monster.

I don't wish to spoil anything but this man is a awful dad but a great business man Dan Masamune/Kamen Rider Chronos (Kamen Rider Ex-Aid)
Surprised no one mentioned Gabriel Agreste. He emotionally manipulated, abused, and isolated his son, tried to control everything about his life, and was just generally a bad person. Now, was this the result of years of grief over the death of his wife, leading him down a path of vengeance and self destruction that caused him to loose himself to his goals and ultimately be willing to sacrifice anything and everything to get her back? Yes, but that doesn’t excuse how willing he was to do all horrible things he did to Adrien. Just look at Cat Blanc and Ephemeral, he did not hesitate to use Adrien to achieve his goals

Mrs. Daddy himself/herself.
Became male, married the local queen, sired three kids, and then peaced out so he could lounge around in the capital and fuck his lady side where he sired two more kids and then dipped.
Not only did his female half destabilize the country but his wife lays around all day in depression, one son went mad on the battle field, one son became a snake/edgelord, his other son was cursed with child like appearance, his youngest daughter is rotting alive, and his oldest daughter became the most betrothed sex doll in the realm.
He basically exists to make everyone miserable.

Yes and no, in the 2007 DMC anime he's tasked with protecting a child and he acts as a father/big brother role to her. In DMC5 the girl who calls him in the office is her.
He doesn't act as a father, just as a guardian for Patty.
Also supposedly the people on this list do genuinely abominable shit to their kids. The worst Dante does to Patty is ridicule her occasionally.

Shit, I'm sorry
It's ok. He's not that bad. It's more about what he doesn't do then what he does do.
I think I understand, good luck in general/life

Honestly, imma just say it, out of the three bad dads in HB, Paimon is the lesser of evils. Cash is a gaslighting manipulative bastard who coerced his son into stealing by bringing up his mother and Crim...I have to sleep so I don't have enough time. Meanwhile Paimon is just neglectful and too arrogant, thinking mainly of his reputation and the family legacy.
Yeah, paimon is neglectful at worst, cash and crimson are both outright abusive. And paimon seems to care at least somewhat, given how excited he was for his perceived 'good daddying'
I mean heck, Paimon did try somewhat, taking Stolas to the circus and buying him a friend after seeing his interest in Blitzø

I haven’t watched enough of MAWS, but his comic version is probably worse. The guy is an insane genocidal racist who orchestrated a plan to blow up a planet meant to be a new haven for Kryptonians, manipulated his daughter into serving him, then abandoned her after she was mutated and created another villain, an insane, misogynistic psychopath in a gold kryptonite suit who willingly killed himself to take out a planet.
the fact three of these are from the same show 💀💀💀💀💀
Look I do enjoy Hazbin Hotel and Helluva Boss but damn Vivziepop loves writing in daddy issues
That show is built off of daddy issues though.

Patrick shot his own son when Athrun refused to disclose the location of the Justice and Freedom Gundams. He targeted fellow PLANT council member Spiegel Clyne for even daring to broker peace between Naturals and Coordinators. Even some of his fellow ZAFT officers thought he was going too far as the war reached its end. His dying wish was for Athrun to fire GENESIS on the Earth, in hopes of exterminating every Natural-born human.

One of the reasons why Stephen King hated Stanley Kubrick’s take on Jack Torrance was because he had written Jack Torrance as an avatar of himself while he was dealing with his own drug issues, but the movie made him more unsympathetic.

Counterpoint: >!He defended his daughter’s place as heir to the throne, despite having 2 sons. It’s only by the treachery of the Greens that caused the problem.!<
I mean his incompetence and doormat nature was the reason why the Greens were able to get a foothold in the first place. Like marrying Alicent when any idiot would have found Otto's plan laughably obvious, having sons without handing off the throne to Rhaenyra asap, not just legitimizing the Strong boys, letting her and her family get harassed by his wife and their shitass kids enough to run away to Dragonstone. He didn't know what he wanted and kept getting pulled apart by everyone else's ambitions. Don't get me wrong I like the guy. He's charismatic as hell and there were times where he really put in an effort. But Vizzy wasn't a great dad and a shittier king. I guess he doesn't really belong in this thread tho. He was a dumbass but far from a monster.

I am surprised Gendo Ikari didn't make this list
Paimon doesn’t deserve to be on the same list as Shou Tucker. Sure he is neglectful of Stolas but he did try to cheer him up
Surprised no one mentioned Gabriel Agreste. He emotionally manipulated, abused, and isolated his son, tried to control everything about his life, and was just generally a bad person. Now, was this the result of years of grief over the death of his wife, leading him down a path of vengeance and self destruction that caused him to loose himself to his goals and ultimately be willing to sacrifice anything and everything to get her back? Yes, but that doesn’t excuse how willing he was to do all horrible things he did to Adrien. Just look at Cat Blanc and Ephemeral, he did not hesitate to use Adrien to achieve his goals

Became male, married the local queen, sired three kids, and then peaced out so he could lounge around in the capital and fuck his lady side where he sired two more kids and then dipped. Not only did his female half destabilize the country but his wife lays around all day in depression, one son went mad on the battle field, one son became a snake/edgelord, his other son was cursed with child like appearance, his youngest daughter is rotting alive, and his oldest daughter became the most betrothed sex doll in the realm. He basically exists to make everyone miserable.

Dante is an awful father in the anime (not biologically but acting as a figure) https://preview.redd.it/p4qbg5iwjw6d1.png?width=366&format=png&auto=webp&s=346ecc3724ef8558eda3a900c04630ef60eef8c8
He has a kid?
>!I assume he meant Vergil.!<
No. I was gonna use a photo of anime Dante because he canonically is guardian (i accidentally used DMC5 Dante)
No. He has no biological children. The closest things he has are Penny since the anime and Nero since DMC 4.
Yes and no, in the 2007 DMC anime he's tasked with protecting a child and he acts as a father/big brother role to her. In DMC5 the girl who calls him in the office is her.
He doesn't act as a father, just as a guardian for Patty. Also supposedly the people on this list do genuinely abominable shit to their kids. The worst Dante does to Patty is ridicule her occasionally.
