The Edgiest Character in Fiction

[DMUA]

Cole killed Thousands just because he wanted to be a little bit more Stronk.

 

[Schnee_One]

Okay, Evil Cole IS rather edgy.

 

[Js250476]

Is he more edgy then Kratos?

 

[TeenAngel101]

That was Evil Cole, but I see your point.

Basically, my definition of Edgy is:

Not cringy = Dark

Cringy = Edgy

 

[DMUA]

And Delsin killed his entire family just because they banished him for killing loads of people.

 

[TeenAngel101]

And Delsin killed his entire family just because they banished him for killing loads of people.

Yeah, that was just...bullshit.

There is literally no reason he would've done that. There's no reason for him to be evil, PERIOD.

 

[DMUA]

Not cringy = Dark

Cringy = Edgy

......


......


.....


You're right.

 

[Js250476]

Pretty much there are a ton of stories that are dark but not cringe

 

[DMUA]

And Delsin killed his entire family just because they banished him for killing loads of people.

Yeah, that was just...bullshit.
There is literally no reason he would've done that. There's no reason for him to be evil, PERIOD.

You could argue the same for Cole, really. Neither of them have any reasons to be evil.

 

[Js250476]

Well Evil Cole is non canon so that probably explains it

 

[DMUA]

Evil Delsin is also likely non canon.

 

[TeenAngel101]

Well, for Cole, he was just a normal guy, who got framed for a crime he didn't commit, and everyone hates him for it, including his girlfriend, telling him to go die in a fire and throwing stones at him. I'd say he had a pretty good reason to say **** the world.

But for Delsin, his goal is to save a little old lady and his dying friends. And it wasn't like he was an outcast or something, he was a delinquent who spray-painted.

So what reason does he have to make any of the ridiculously evil choices in the game like murdering countless hordes of non-violent protestors?

 

[DMUA]

I've only got one thing.


Ow ThE eDgE

 

[TeenAngel101]

Yeah, I think Cole was dark, and Delsin was edgy.

And the reason he was edgy is because he did it for NO REASON.

 

[Js250476]

Also for a good example I think Starkiller is a great example of anti-hero done right imo

 

[TeenAngel101]

Yeah, but LORD Starkiller was pretty edgy.

 

[Schnee_One]

To be honest I see Cole being evil in the first game and good in the second game, that seems to really conclude his growth

 

[Js250476]

Thank god it's non canon even In Legends

 

[TeenAngel101]

Holy crap, I completely forgot about Anakin. Guy was so edgy I think he tried to slit his wrists.

 

[Js250476]

Kylo Ren is even worse tbh

 

[TeenAngel101]

Not cringy = Dark
Cringy = Edgy

You're right.

Basically, there's the dark that makes you:

"Holy shit, that's ****** up."

And then there's the "dark" that makes you go:

 

[Js250476]

Basically things like DMC,Hatred And Shadow The Hedgehog give most people that expression

 

[GreyFang82]

Oh yeah remember that time Plankton tried to kill himself due to being harassed by Mr. Crabs and then Mr. Crabs laughs because of it. That was a '''really bad''' episode. I think that episode was called one course meal i think.

 

[Js250476]

Yeah it was one of the worst episodes of modern spongebob

 

[TeenAngel101]

That's pretty edgy.

 

[Matthew_Schroeder]

I would say that ANGRON is pretty up there.

>Lived as a slave in an apocalyptic world

>Got brain surgical implants that made him angry 100% of the time

>His Legion was infamous for being completely composed of bloodthirsty maniacs, like Khârn

>Becomes the Daemon Prince of the literal embodiment of Wrath, Blood, War and Murder

Plus, his name is freaking Angron.

 

[Schnee_One]

**** YOU FOR CALLING ANGRON CRINGEY!

 

[Matthew_Schroeder]

He isn't cringey. I love Angron, he's an amazing tragic character.

But he is really ******* edgy.

 

[Lorenzo.r.2nd]

prolly the kid from evangelion lol (that shit was for real though...)

 

[Schnee_One]

That was Evil Cole, but I see your point.

Basically, my definition of Edgy is:

Not cringy = Dark

Cringy = Edgy

Dunno? I do think Abbadon seems more edgy.

 

[MrKingOfNegativity]

Oh. Ohhh.

You wanna know who's really edgy?

...

The Goddamn Batman.

No, not The Batma.

The Goddam Batma.

 

[Matthew_Schroeder]

Abaddon isn't edgy if you actually get to know him in the Black Legion books.

 

[Js250476]

I'm surprised Sasuke was only mentioned in this thread once

 

[TeenAngel101]

Yeah, but let's not bullshit ourselves. No one beats the original.

 

[Schnee_One]

Abaddon isn't edgy if you actually get to know him in the Black Legion books.

Really...?

Yeesh I need to get some books already.

 

[Lorenzo.r.2nd]

nope. this kid called cole, in my school... if u say ******* hell in front of him, he says "is awesome" back at u..

 

[Js250476]

Also while I do like him a lot Mewtwo is pretty damn edgy to being honest

 

[Arrogant_Schmuck]

This guy has quite a few edges.

Am I doing this right?

 

[TeenAngel101]

He was edgier in the English version actually. In the original Japanese, he only went with Giovanni because he was confused and alone, and didn't want to hurt anyone else with his power.

Then 4Kids or whatever studio in charge of the dub made him totally evil for no reason. No actually, there was a reason. Because the kids can't understand "complicated moral issues" and we needed a black and white bad guy to root against.

 

[Js250476]

I remember in the Japanese version Mewtwo was pretty much Shadow before Shadow existed in terms of backstory
