He is shown favoring Gaston most of the time. He is a lousy man with a drunken personality. Gaston keeps taking advantage of him, and he keeps shut through the animated film, precisely like a sidekick is believed to be. He is intentionally made to look inferior to Gaston, being a timid guy who accepts all kinds of violence from him.

Voiced By – Wanda Sykes
Granny is, for the time, featured in Continental Drift. She is an old sloth with a hunched and stooped body. She is primarily unthankful to people around her. She usually befriends terrible people; it’s safe to say her instincts are poor.
11. Denzel Quincy Crocker
Cartoon name- The Fairly Oddparents
Role- A sadistic teacher obsessed with fairies
Voiced By- Carlos Alazraqui
Mr. Denzel Quincy Crocker is an ugly character beyond description. He has grotesque disposition traits with his weird teeth and ears. He is oddly intelligent in some instances, but it doesn’t take away attention from the fact that he does some heinous deeds obsessing over fairies. The Nickelodeon presented show The Fairly Oddparents showcases this character as an elementary-level school teacher. His hunchback adds to his horror. Fans describe him as an obsessed disciplinarian.
12. Mother Gothel
Cartoon name– Tangled
Role- Evil lady
Voiced by Donna Murphy
Mother Gothel is a witch in the animated movie Tangled. She is a pretentious lady who is masking her ugliness and declining health before a pretty form and shape. Tangled was released in 2020, where we got one of the cruelest villains like her.
13. Mackey
Cartoon name– South Park
Role– Teacher
Voiced By– Tery Parker
Clear from his nerd look, he is a teacher with ugliness dripping all over his face. Mackey sometimes flaunts his superficial knowledge, but he isn’t as bright as he shows. In the sitcom South Park, his role is of a monotonous dimensional teacher at South Park Elementary, granted with the catchphrase “mKay.”
14. Squidward Tentacles
Cartoon name- SpongeBob Squarepants
Role– Pretentious Neighbour of SpongeBob
Voiced By– Rodger Bumpass
Squidward looked like a limbless character with hands and paws similar to that of a penguin. But the fact is he was an octopus, which makes us wonder where his other tentacles are. He is a six-tentacle octopus with two of four tentacles being shown as legs in pairs of two on each side. The rest of his body is skinny, which explains his nasal voice.
15. Gargamel
Cartoon name- The Smurfs
Role– Villian, He was before the Smurfs
Voiced by Paul Winchell
His hairline was reading, which made him look too old, probably a middle-aged villain. Throughout the popular franchise of the Smurfs, his motive is to capture The Smurfs, which he repeatedly fails at, but every time, he keeps trying. His pointy nose adds to his ugly features, and his fashion sense makes everyone laugh. His horror isn’t limited to the looks, but his actions are the same. Being the main antagonist, he might intentionally be dressed in black.
