Both like to mess around and "dance", both have super-sized egos, and both gank DNA from everybody to power up. But, who is the superior villain in your opinion?

Madara,

Cell had no other desire than to find the strongest opponent.

Madara is just too full of swag, and to be honest I didn't watch DBZ fully, only the beginning.

Cell. He doesn't take his opponents lightly. He got beaten fairly by a stronger opponent.

Lets see what Madara does in future...

Cell is just villain with power who fights. No personality, no huge and emotional effect on the verse or protagonist, no bacsktory, no motives, and practically no character. This applies for all DBZ characters. The series focuses on power.

In the other hand, you have Madara, who lost 5 brothers, his parents, and clan's trust due to the system, and now his motives is to enslave the world where everyone is under his control, thus bringing law. He structured a plan, and manipulated Obito and almost every villain to do it for him, and then killed Obito without remorse to revive himself. He has darkness in his heart for reasons and has depth and interest as character.

Villain/Antagonist, is supposed to have reasons for his change, massive effect on protagonist and story, personality, and motives. Madara has all of them, while Cell has none.

too bad the villains in dbz only wanted to takeover or destroy the world for no apparent reason & frieza wanted immortality.
I know the androids were programmed with certain objectives . Should've given them "flashbacks" honestly lol

ot: they both look great & had wonderful voices

So much irony in that post. Madara is a crap villain, but he's the best in his series.

Cell is legendary only due to gohan. Had he been legit he'd kill gohan b4 he even tried ssj2

Cell wanted to anger Gohan so Gohan could awaken his power & his picking on Gohan theme probably came from Vegeta's cells. lol Cell would watch the saiyans do things with their saiyan abilities and perform them for himself later. Like after Trunks went Ussj , Cell also performed it , and after Gohan went SSj2, Cell performed it when he came back . Although I wish the villains had other goals in mind for the long term.

You criticized Cell for being a villian that's only about power,Madara is the same way.In a way your post could apply to Madara as well since he wanted power to achieve his goals.
