Thank you for illustrating my point. Aku's just evil because he is. There's no rhyme or reason to it, he's just hilarious, and unlike the Joker, who's humor enhances his evil, being Laughably Evil detracts it for Aku.

Granted, some of his actions are played seriously, but as you said, it's far too inconsistent to note.
