* ''Series/{{Dexter}}'' again (this time only the TV show) admits, at least at first, that he admires Trinity for his success in maintaining the life he's led. Downplayed in that Dexter still has every intention of ''killing'' him, but not before he can learn how to do the same with his own life.

* {{Averted|Trope}} in ''WesternAnimation/RickAndMorty'' when our Rick finds a machine created by the evil Rick of another dimension that tortures Mortys to maintain a stealth field around his fortress. Our Rick says this is a bad thing to do, [[DoWrongRight but is actually more hung-up with]] how ''poor'' the design is, as opposed to the grudging admiration he certainly would have had if Evil!Rick had used Rick's design (which he insists was only done on paper as a hypothetical).

* Early in Volume 6 of ''WebAnimation/{{RWBY}}'', Cinder approaches local KnowledgeBroker[=/=]crime boss Miss Malachite looking for information on Team RWBY. When Malachite's bodyguards go to block her from coming too close, Cinder tosses a hefty sum of cash on the table. Malachite asks if it's her life savings, and Cinder replies "It was someone's." Malachite can't help but be amused and says that the line is "Cute." (It's also not just a line, since Cinder literally did murder a woman and steal all the money she had.)

* ''WesternAnimation/TaleSpin'': In "On a Wing and a Bear", Baloo has to get his pilot's license renewed after he discovers it's expired. However, this is much easier said than done since his instructor is Ralph Throgmoroton, who is extremely meticulous and insists on having things done in alphabetical order. During Baloo's test, he and Throgmorton wind up on Don Karnage's hideout, where they discover that [[VillainTeamUp Karnage has secretly been working with Shere Khan]] to fake a fuel shortage and raise gas prices. As they evade the pirates, Throgmorton yells at Baloo for his dangerous flight maneuvers, but finally admits that they saved them from Karnage and his Air Pirates, so Baloo gets his license back.
-->'''Throgmorton''': What you did was A. absolutely terrifying, B. breathtakingly scary, and C. C... quite simply the best flying I've ever seen!

* On ''WesternAnimation/TheVentureBrothers'', when Dr. Richard Impossible becomes evil--well, more evil than he had been up to that point--he makes his Manhattan office building PoweredByAForsakenChild, that is the energy from his former brother-in-law's [[Comicbook/FantasticFour Johnny Storm]]-like ability to burst into flames. Unlike Johnny Storm, however, the victim has no ability to control his powers and is in constant agony whenever he's conscious. Phantom Limb praises this as the most evil thing he's ever seen.

* In '' VideoGame/KnightsOfTheOldRepublic'' and its sequel, the Mandalorians as a whole regarding Revan. [[TheStrategist Revan]] thoroughly trashed them in the Mandalorian Wars -- but far from being sore, they have instead placed [[WorthyOpponent Revan]] on a pedestal. Canderous in particular describes Revan's use of expert tactics, and ferocity on the battlefield, and even Revan's defeat of Mandalore the Ultimate in tones of admiration. By Mandalorian values, Revan was the ultimate WorthyOpponent, and to face Revan in battle was the ultimate honor win or lose. [[spoiler: And where pretty much everyone else is upset when finding out the PC is an amnesiac Darth Revan, Canderous instead becomes the Mandalorian version of TheKnightsWhoSaySquee]].
