His Good Ranking[]
What Makes Him Admirable?[]
- When young Gru stole the Zodiac Stone from the Vicious 6, he told him to keep walking to be safe from them.
- While he initially didn't care for the girls Gru adopted, even calling Miss Hattie to bring them back, he eventually started to care for them.
- When he realized that the Moon was going to regrow pretty fast, he went to warn Gru.
- He saved Gru from falling off Vector's ship and helped him save the girls from Vector.
- He let a stray cat go unharmed after accidentally sucking it.
- He was affable to Gru even after Gru was trying to stop El Macho's plot, saying that it was nice to see him.
- After El Macho captured Lucy, he told Gru about it and told him that El Macho knows he's a member of the AVL.
- He invented an antidote to cure the mutated Minions, putting it in a batch of jellies to be able to hit the Minions, thus completely undoing his most heinous action.
- He saved the girls from a mutated Kevin and allowed them to help him cure the Minions.
- He saved Gru from a bunch of mutated Minions that tried to kill him by curing them, before going to cure the rest of the mutated Minions.
- He defeated El Macho by shooting at him with a fart gun.
- After unfreezing himself from carbonite, he stayed by Gru's side, abandoning villainy, supporting his friend and redeeming himself.
- He reverted Gru Jr. back to normal after Maxime Le Mal turned him into a cockroach monster and returned him safely to Gru and Lucy.
- Also it is implied that he also reverted Maxime's mutation when Maxime got recaptured by the AVL.
What Makes Him Inconsistent?[]
- He helped El Macho in his plot to destroy several cities, which makes him too heinous, especially since his redemption is due to wanting to protect his family.
- Despite redeeming himself, he is an anti-hero, as he only turned against El Macho due to wanting to keep his family safe rather than standards against El Macho's crimes.
- He can be considered incompetent and reckless as he carelessly froze himself in carbonite for a long amount of time.
