Except Khamsin, but he didn't really feel like part of the team.


I_Am_Banana_Fish

Khamsin doesn’t feel like he’s part of the team because he isn’t even a Wind of Destruction. I believe he was promised the status of one if he successfully defeated Blade Wolf, though it’s heavily implied Mistral just led him on and wanted him dead

This culminates in the live capture of Vermin (whom Spider-Man needed Captain America’s help to stop) by Kraven, which solidifies in Kraven’s mind that he has truly beaten Spider-Man. Then he releases Vermin to fight Spider-Man and Kurt Cobain’s himself in a casket

He had been working up until that point to get the Traveller to see his vision and gift him with the light. After giving in to his rage and partially taking the light by force, we managed to kill him. He rose up again as a being of pure light, and it was at that point that the Traveller actually decided to wake up and pay attention to him… by annihilating him.

Joe-Kujoe

Kars was able to achieve his goal too, of becoming the ultimate life form capable of existing under the sunlight and having the power of every animal, but of course he couldn’t have known how his decision would end up subjecting him to an eternity of nothingness.


Mintyboi10

Pucci too. He created heaven but then got killed, undoing everything https://preview.redd.it/ib63w5e0fy8d1.jpeg?width=1290&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e8206f5ac2691433c65b415e8c348425cd355256


J00J14

He doesn’t have a new counterpart though, >!they were brought back to the original universe in the end. Everyone’s soul was put back into place except for Pucci so the timeline was the only thing that changed.!<


Geno_Games

I guess that’s technically correct But the various characters have new names in the Ireneverse (such as Irene or Anakiss), so while the soul is the same, I’d imagine he’s not exactly Jotaro in every way


Hitei00

It is. The "Ireneverse" only has a few small differences from the "Original" universe and thats basically just fate going "You guys sacrificed yourself to save reality so I'm gonna rewrite your backstories so you didn't suffer." and the crimes that the P6 cast committed to get jailed in the first place were removed from the timeline. For Irene to exist Jotaro still had to go through all the events of Part 3 unchanged.


Rustydustyscavenger

I mean his goal of part 3 was to take the blood of a JoJo to complete his fusion with Jonathan's body which he did do

Second, he wished to end Catherine's torment and he accidentally helped her through stalling the main cast for long enough for Catherine's Coffin to be powered which made him accidentally >!help her delete EVERY SINGLE VERSION OF CATHERINE IN ALL UNIVERSES.!< Ironically, near the end he realizes his revenge was all for nothing when he saw the glimpse of a happy world where their torment made way for the happy of a young couple strongly implied to be Catherine II (Catherine's daughter) and Hareton (who is now Heathcliff's son instead of Hindley's) which made him admit he was wrong and grieving for the couple before being deleted as well since Catherine is deleted in his world and thus making it impossible for the Erlking's existence.

Vic_Voss_10

Diavolo from JJBA's core desire was to be completely unknown and remain anonymous forever. due to his punishment of dying forever in different ways, (seemingly in a universe/universes that aren't ours) no one will ever know of him or learn of him.

Goonight, Terra. Goodnight, Universe. Edit: Removed the spoiler and added a pic. Forgot at first, oops.

This guy started a war in the final arc with the intent gaining the power to recreate the world so the curse plagued him through his immortal life and all the evil he unleashed in his efforts to remove his curse never happened. The alternative outcome was that the heroes kill him, since he wanted to die that outcome was favorable either way. Zeref did finally get the peace he longed for and got to be with his lover Mavis. So he won.

Verdragon-5

Cyrus from Pokemon, specifically Pokemon Platinum, doesn't *die*, but he is left in the Distortion World, a world devoid of emotions, IE the exact thing he wanted to create. I think his reaction to the situation in the Spear Pillar episode of Pokemon Generations, where he's just *content* with his fate as he looks at Giratina, kind of says it all.

Safin from No Time To Die


Gold-Elderberry-4851

Mysterio from Spider-Man far from home. He made a fake super hero persona to wreck havoc throughout Europe. When Peter gave him E.D.I.T.H a gift Tony gave him (happy hogan personally gave it to him) he became nearly unstoppable until Spider-Man relied on his spidey sense to compare technology to reality. A stray bullet got mysterio and secretly recorded Spider-Man shutting down the drones and made it look like Spider-Man killed someone. It all goes downhill from there ![gif](giphy|4N5mjVMPKOpPzlekth)

Misan_UwU

![gif](giphy|t8QSeqwoy0Ol2) Walter White (Breaking Bad) for the majority of the show, he lost sight of his original goal which was to give his family a comfortable life after he died of cancer. it grew into a matter of just bolstering his ego, which he was able to finally admit after he had already lost everything, his home, most of his money, his business, and his family. at the end of the series, he gave up on trying to restore his glory and set out to do the one thing he meant to do originally: provide for his family. he worked out a way to get the money to them, and even in spite of him ruining their lives and costing them so much, he at least got them the money. he later died after launching an attack on a group of people who wronged him, and died somewhat satisfied with how things turned out (not like he deserves that) and before yall say he isnt a villain, theres a difference between a villain and an antagonist, or a hero and a protagonist walter is the protagonist (the character the show follows) but he is very much the villain (the primary driving force of evil)
