Talk:Mr. Big (Zootopia)/@comment-2145732-20160409220724/@comment-1635429-20160502173707

Mr. Big is a crime boss. He commits crimes, and has a huge reputation for that very thing. We only see one crime (aside from kidnapping), and that's murder. Intentional murder, and out of spite no less, immediately lables a character as a villain. Mr. Big kills anyone who disrespects him. The only reason he didn't kill Nick and Judy was because Judy saved his daughter's life, and sparing them was his way of returning the favor. He has honorable standards, but that doesn't remove his villainy. That simply makes him an "Anti-villain".

And let's not forget, he's so murderous that his own daughter actually made him promise not to kill anyone for at least one day (being her wedding day). That's not a neutral character, that's a villain. But again, it's possible for villains to have redeeming qualities. Not everything is black or white.
