Near Pure Evil villains who fall in love with someone special in their life. Pure Evils never feel love and even if they did at some point it's either subverted or, in rare cases where its still genuine, is outright sadomasochistic in nature. Conversely, Near Pure Evils are capable of feeling genuine love, which is often their most notable prevention from being Pure Evil. Some examples include Injustice Superman, Kingpin, Baek Jun Ki, Masamune Dan, Cletus Kasady, Thomas Wayne, Byron Hadley, Tilda van der Meer and Dominic. This also applies to Near Pure Evils who are only implied to be in love, such as Yoshikage Kira and Doma. If the Near Pure Evils who truly love someone crave affection and love for someone more specific and cause great harm to many people, they can be considered Yandere. Esdeath is one such example.

Only Near Pure Evils who are truly in love can fall under this category. Near Pure Evils who appear to be in love but are truly not should fall under False Lovers instead.
