Villain Critique: Thanos from MCU

Hey there, everyone. Sorry I took so long to finally get this out, but here it is. The reason why it took me so long was because I got a little distracted and had to focus on other projects at the time. But now the time has finally come for me to continue with this series.

But before I unveil today's villain, let's go over the typical rules for this series, shall we?

First, if you haven't seen, read, played, or heard of any of these villains and/or the media that they appear in, there will be spoilers. You have been warned. Also, keep in mind that I haven't seen, heard of, and/or known a lot about every villain out there, so if you have a villain that you want to show me and I haven't known about him or her yet, please be sure to lend me some information through either reply or via PM.

Second, This is all just my personal opinion and you don't have to agree with me if you don't want to. Just please be nice, constructive, and considerate, especially when telling me why you disagree in the comments down below or via PM.

And finally, I don't just do movie or cartoon villains. I also do villains from video games, comics, television, and even fan-made OCs.

Anyway, let's get started with one of the most powerful and most popular villains in the Marvel Cinematic Universe: Thanos.

Now, like the Star Wars Universe, I haven't actually watched the respective movies of Infinity War or Endgame. However, I have seen, heard of, and watched a lot about Thanos from videos, reviews, and his own wiki page and from what I can tell, he's a very well-written character and villain. So, here's what I like about him:

1. Design(s): His design is very imposing, intimidating, and greatly detailed, but not to the point where he's too scary or hard to look at. He also looks great and powerful with his iconic Infinity Gauntlet and Infinity Stones. He's so amazing-looking and distinct that you can tell who he is and/or what he's going to be based on his design alone, which is what a great design (character or not) needs to do.
2. Personality: His personality is well-written as well. Despite his intimidating, serious, and ruthless demeanor, you can still see a very sympathetic side to him if you got to know him more in spite of his actions. His flaws and strength are well-defined and make him a three-dimensional and realistic character as he thinks that his actions will be the only salvation for the universe in spite of what others think about it. He's also very honorable and willing to accept his death with dignity once his job was done.
3. Backstory: His backstory is very tragic and heart-breaking. It shows that why he is the way that he is in a very poignant and heart-wrenching way. His planet's entire population (minus himself) gets destroyed by over-population, despite his warnings, and he wants to prevent that from happening to the rest of the universe by any means necessary, even if it means sacrificing the one person that he truly loves and cares about, which breaks both his heart and possibly ours as well. The way in which it's presented and built upon makes it a very sad and tragic backstory. Probably one of the most tragic and sympathetic backstories in recent years.
4. Abilities: Even without the Infinity Gauntlet, he's still a very powerful figure in his own right. He has super strength, speed, durability, and longevity. But once he gets the Infinity Gauntlet and all of the Infinity Stones, however, he becomes a force to be reckon with. He's able to control space, time, life, and even reality itself with just a literal snap of his fingers.
5. Weaknesses: Despite all this power and strength, Thanos does have his weaknesses. His first weakness, as he says himself, is decapitation. And his second weakness is the Infinity Gauntlet itself as after he used all six stones twice, he nearly died and left in a weakened state. His former weakness is his arrogance, which he had better control of in 2018.
6. Character Arc/Development: Besides Miscellaneous, this is the one category that I don't know too much about for Thanos. However, he's still a well-developed and well-built-up character for not only the movies he appeared in, but possibly the entire Marvel Universe as a whole.
7. Miscellaneous: I still don't know that much about him in this category. Sorry.
8. Overall: Thanos has really proven his status as one of the most powerful and popular villains in the MCU, if not of all time. He really lived up to the hype that was built-up for him for so long and I can't wait to see what the future movies have for not only him, but other villains as well, for better or worse.

Now, if you have a favorite villain (movies, cartoons, video games, etc) that you want me to critique, let me know either in the comments down below or via PM. Also, be sure to give me some information of your villain if I don't know that much about them.

What do you think of both this critique and this villain? Do you like them both? If so, why or why not? Please let me know.

Have a fantastic day.
