Love Robin, by your twisted logic Nazi officers and the like are not "villains" because they simply followed the rules of their land - if the rules are unjust and they take deliberate pride in enforcing those laws then they are by default a villain.. he's also beyond the "Dennis Nedry" minimum scale for villainous jerks.

"legal is not always just" nor is always an auto-free from villainy.. in fact some of the worst people in history (even in fiction) do so legally.. everything Frollo did (up until the end of the movie) was legal and supported by society, shall we remove him as well?

Chi-Fu isn't nearly on the same level as Frollo but you saying "nothing he did was remotely villainous" is very much wrong.

a jerk ceases to become a jerk when they become a serious threat to a hero's survival and Chi-Fu went above and beyond his "duty" in his petty excuse to kill the main hero for no reason other than 1) her gender and 2) his own position of powerr (which he desperately wanted to cling to)

if he was the Tea Lady, fine.. she was antagonistic but just a jerk.. she was a bully but she never harmed Mulan or her family.. Chi-Fu is a much more tangible threat and he upped it from the Trea Lady anyway.. while Tea Lady was a jerk who truly was enforcing society's laws (albeit in a horrible manner) Chi-Fu was not enforcing anything out of love for his Empire, it was out of love of his own position of power and his actions and portrayal were shown as such.

this is a Disney animated movie, not all of the villains are city-burning Huns but in Disney you sure as heck can be a villain by trying continually to have the main "princess" of a movie executed.
