* ''WesternAnimation/HazbinHotel'': Downplayed with Angel Dust. While calling him outright evil may be a stretch, he's still a violet gangster and very effeminate in both appearance and demeanor.

* ''WesternAnimation/TheOwlHouse'' has Darius, the head of the Abominations Coven. He speaks with an effeminate tone of voice, is very invested in self care, and his BerserkButton is his clothes getting dirty. However, one does not become a Coven Head by being a pushover, and [[AgentPeacock Darius quickly proves himself a massive threat]] by single-handedly capturing the [=BATTs=] and transforming into a massive BlobMonster with scythes for hands when agitated. [[spoiler:Fortunately Darius turns out to be a MoleInCharge, having grown suspicious after the death of his mentor, the old Golden Guard. He becomes a positive influence for Hunter after the kid starts to rebel a little himself, and along with fellow traitors Raine and Eberwolf, figures out the truth about the Day of Unity before anyone else does.]]

** Him from ''WesternAnimation/ThePowerpuffGirls1998''.

to:

** Him from ''WesternAnimation/ThePowerpuffGirls1998''.''WesternAnimation/ThePowerpuffGirls1998'', as demonstrated by the image on the main page. Falsetto sing-song voice (most of the time), women's clothing, bubble baths, jazzercize, you name it. That said, the one time he hulks up (so to speak) it's pretty much the [[BadFuture darkest moment in the series]] next to Dick Hardly.



** The Robot Devil from ''WesternAnimation/{{Futurama}}''.

to:

** The Robot Devil from ''WesternAnimation/{{Futurama}}''. He cries in falsetto when injured, and when he and Fry swap hands he ''still'' finds time to get a manicure while otherwise obsessing and plotting over how to get rid of them.
** The Devil from ''WesternAnimation/TheCupheadShow'' He kicks off his villainy by singing a swaggy VillainSong about how evil he is, complete with calling himself a naughty boy and wiggling his butt, and ''this is him at his manliest''.

* Captain [[NonIndicativeName Hero]] from ''WesternAnimation/DrawnTogether''. His real name is "Leslie", he speaks in a shrieking girly voice with ever-increasing frequency, and he's not picky about ''any'' aspect of his romantic/sexual partners, including [[DepravedBisexual their gender]], [[BestialityIsDepraved their species]], [[ILoveTheDead whether they're alive]], [[BlackComedyRape whether or not they consent]], and [[IncestIsRelative whether or not they're related to him.]]

* ''WesternAnimation/CraigOfTheCreek'': Raj, one of the Honeysuckle Rangers, has some effeminate mannerisms (even aside from wearing a flower-themed uniform).



* Raymond from ''WesternAnimation/OKKOLetsBeHeroes''. He's [[AgentPeacock very flamboyant]], overly dramatic and in "Plaza Prom" he even calls himself the "prince of panache".

* Lil' Gideon of ''WesternAnimation/GravityFalls''. He dresses very finely, obsessed with keeping his pompadour set (when considering ways to attack the Pines family, he dismisses summoning a rain of blood as it might mess up his hair), and is generally a wimp when he doesn't have the advantage. Mabel even considered him like a little sister she can do girly stuff with, like makeovers, at least before he outed himself to be evil.

* Richard De Longpre in ''WesternAnimation/AllenGregory'' is a narcissistic, malevolent, incredibly self-centered gay man who brutally mistreats his life-partner Jeremy, to the point it's made clear that [[MaritalRapeLicense sex between them essentially consists of Richard raping Jeremy]]. It's an appallingly toxic relationship, but it gets even worse with TheReveal that Jeremy is actually ''straight'' and that Richard, having become infatuated with him upon their first meeting, took to [[StalkerWithACrush stalking him]] until Jeremy was forced to accept Richard's hand in marriage in order to protect the wife and children he already had!
* The [[WickedWeasel Creeper]] from ''WesternAnimation/{{Animalia}}''. It's that super-lispy voice of his.
* Roger from ''WesternAnimation/AmericanDad'' is this trope. While not consistently villainous, he can frequently be found at the root of problems for the main characters, seeming to enjoy stirring up trouble, and other peoples' misery.
* Downplayed by Ares in the Franchise/DCAnimatedUniverse. Although he's very much a PrettyBoy, he's all about war, weapons, and destruction.
* Played with a couple of times on ''WesternAnimation/DextersLaboratory'':
** In the episode "Jeepers Creepers Where Is Peepers", blatant anime parody villain Hookocho is an evil [[GalacticConqueror alien warlord]] that Dexter fights to save Dee Dee's imaginary world.
** In one MissingEpisode of "Dial M for Monkey", the [[ComicBook/SilverSurfer Silver Spooner]] is an effeminate expy, who is ultimately defeated by [[spoiler:distracting him with a claim that Judy Garland is present, allowing Monkey to hit him over the head with his own spoon]].
* Captain [[NonIndicativeName Hero]] from ''WesternAnimation/DrawnTogether''. His real name is "Leslie", he speaks in a shrieking girly voice with ever-increasing frequency, and he's not picky about ''any'' aspect of his romantic/sexual partners, including [[DepravedBisexual their gender]], [[BestialityIsDepraved their species]], [[ILoveTheDead whether they're alive]], [[BlackComedyRape whether or not they consent]], and [[IncestIsRelative whether or not they're related to him.]]
* Stewie Griffin from ''WesternAnimation/FamilyGuy'', especially in the earlier seasons. Not surprising, since he's largely a {{parody}} of various villain tropes.
%%* Professor Hinkle from ''WesternAnimation/FrostyTheSnowman''.
* The ''WesternAnimation/{{Futurama}}'' episode "Raging Bender" has Bender become a pro wrestler, though after his popularity dies down, he's forced to become a cross-dressing sissy heel called the Gender Bender.
* ''Franchise/GIJoe'':
** Cobra Commander, often described as a "faceless effeminate screechy man." Where other villains go into rages, Cobra Commander throws ''hissy fits''. His threat level seems to be based on how deep his voice is.
** The original Cobra Commander and the original Starscream were voiced by the same actor, Chris Latta. CC and Screamer obviously partnered in ''Franchise/GIJoe[=/=]Franchise/{{Transformers}}'' crossovers, comic and cartoon. Chris Latta himself was a bit bitchy and ended up being fired for all the trouble he caused the studio.
* Lil' Gideon of ''WesternAnimation/GravityFalls''. He dresses very finely, obsessed with keeping his pompadour set (when considering ways to attack the Pines family, he dismisses summoning a rain of blood as it might mess up his hair), and is generally a wimp when he doesn't have the advantage. Mabel even considered him like a little sister she can do girly stuff with, like makeovers, at least before he outed himself to be evil.
* In one episode of ''WesternAnimation/TheGrimAdventuresOfBillyAndMandy'', Endsville is plagued by a nasalmancer, a wizard who practices nose magic. ("It's not a very popular school of wizardry," says Grim.) The guy wears wizard robes that look like dresses and usually uses his skills to sell women's cosmetics.
%%* From ''WesternAnimation/HeManAndTheMastersOfTheUniverse1983'': Skeletor.
* The ''WesternAnimation/IronManArmoredAdventures'' version of Justin Hammer has a light voice, enjoys fine cuisine, and takes a lot of pride in his appearance. He also invites Tony Stark to dinner.
* Senor Senior, Junior is the ''WesternAnimation/KimPossible'' variant of this, [[CampStraight as metrosexual as it gets]], overly concerned with hair care products, boy bands and far more [[TheDandy interested in looking good]] than doing bad.
* ComicBook/LexLuthor's pet iguana Ignatius from ''WesternAnimation/KryptoTheSuperdog'', even though he had a crush on a female iguana in one episode.
* Subverted in ''WesternAnimation/TheMagicSchoolBus'' where there is a fey British scientist, who runs a place called Herp Haven, who seems to want to do in the chameleon Liz and prances around a bit. [[spoiler: However, it turns out he's a good guy who runs a habitat for reptiles and was just trying to adjust Liz's habitat.]]
* The Lepodopterist from [[Creator/VanBeurenStudios "Molly Moo Cow and the Butterflies".]] He's not even evil, but a giddy, cowardly fool who prances around and flicks his wrist, and brags about how he'd rather catch butterflies than hunt for tigers or lions. The only reason he's even a villain is because he's [[ObliviouslyEvil oblivious]] to the fact that catching the (sentient) butterflies is robbing them of their freedom.
* [[MadGod Discord]] from ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic'' is not above jumping around and skating on soap like a ballet dancer, or even occasionally cross-dressing.
* The phenomenally campy and [[LargeHam over-the-top]] Scaramouche the Merciless in Season 5 of ''WesternAnimation/SamuraiJack'' is a ''robotic'' version of this trope. He dresses in a purple trenchcoat with an orange scarf and magenta high-heels. His powers involve playing a flute to control rocks and ''scat-singing'' to control a levitating sword. He judges Jack's look like he was a fashion designer judging a model, and also addresses everyone as 'babe' or 'baby,' including both Jack and ''Aku''. He also destroyed an entire village and murdered its inhabitants solely to get Jack's attention.
* {{Satan}} is done this way so often it's now [[FlamingDevil a trope of its own]].
** Him from ''WesternAnimation/ThePowerpuffGirls''.
** The Red Guy from ''WesternAnimation/CowAndChicken''. They're almost identical: swishy gay depictions of Satan. They met once in a commercial to hit on WesternAnimation/JohnnyBravo and plan to take over Creator/CartoonNetwork.
** The Robot Devil from ''WesternAnimation/{{Futurama}}''.
** ''WesternAnimation/SouthPark'' -- except for the fact that ''South Park'''s {{Satan}} is more of a ManlyGay AntiVillain...
** In ''WesternAnimation/GodTheDevilAndBob'', The Devil is rather flamboyant, incredibly prissy, and prone to occasional crossdressing and singing showtunes, as well as being very physical when talking to Bob.
* ''WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons'': Parodied by the Scoutmaster, played (in-universe, obviously) by Creator/PaulLynde, a villain from the [[DeconstructiveParody campy]] [[Series/{{Batman}} 1960s version]] of the ShowWithinAShow ''Radioactive Man''.
-->[''addressing his mooks''] ''Don't be afraid to use your nails, boys! Muahahaha!''
* ''WesternAnimation/StarWarsTheCloneWars'' has Jabba the Hutt's uncle, Ziro, whose voice was allegedly based on Truman Capote's.
* ''Franchise/{{Transformers}}'':
** Starscream moves up and down a Sliding Scale of Girlishness and Childishness depending on the series and translation, but is consistently bitchy. [[ShesAManInJapan Some have mistakenly made him a girl]], [[WesternAnimation/TransformersAnimated some]] [[OppositeSexClone have given him a female clone]], some have made him an outright giggling fool and some have even made him a somewhat serious air commander... with a childish attitude and a girlfriend to complain to about how his lord and master mistreats him. Expect every incarnation to be a narrow-waisted, whiny, flighty asshole prone to [[TheStarscream backstabbing]] his lord and master for insults and ambition. ''WesternAnimation/TransformersPrime'' is one of the most extreme examples, where Starscream is given an ''extremely'' feminine body shape and CombatStilettos.
** ''WesternAnimation/TransformersPrime'' gives us Knock Out, a metrosexual Decepticon who puts great concern with his vehicle form. WatchThePaintJob. Seriously, [[BerserkButton don't scratch his paint job,]] [[ChainsawGood he has a giant buzz-saw.]] (He's still much more masculine looking than Starscream, though.)
--->'''Knock Out''': I like the way I look in steel-belted radials.\\
'''Knock Out:''' I'm not only an automobile, I'm also an automobile enthusiast.
* ''WesternAnimation/TheVentureBrothers'':
** The Wild Fop appears to be a member of the Guild of Calamitous Intent, in spite of his demonstrated "inappropriate behavior".
** The Monarch is a minor example, being a very skinny, flamboyant LargeHam and having a butterfly theme as his schtick (complete with wings on his uniform and the uniforms of his henchmen). It's somewhat lessened though by the fact that he has a girlfriend...[[CrossdressingVoices with a very deep, manly voice.]]
* Jack Spicer in ''WesternAnimation/XiaolinShowdown''. Frequently screams like a girl, to. Is even called a sissy in one episode, and accidentally declares himself Queen of The Black Vipers, prompting looks from everyone.
