A. Valid character archetype. There exists the character who is doubtlessly the most heinous in a certain work, and there was an entire anime dedicated to analyzing it; of course, given as definitions vary from people to people, the level of heinousness required as well as the other varying criteria will be different. However, it's still an identifiable trope, and tropes are meant to be played with.

B. We've got an entire subsection on TV Tropes dedicated to subjectives tropes. YMMV. There's dozens out there, and one person's trope or a definition or view of it will always vary.
