Spent forever looking for art of these two, but all I did was discover that there are rather more people named “Diane Butler” and “Butler Diane” in this world that you might initially guess. So have some screencaps instead.

I’m pretty fond of Butler (and not just because he’s a cute ex-Magma). He’s quite fleshed out for a one-shot antagonist (flashbacks! backstory! a girlfriend!), and his character growth in the film is such that you could have completely removed Ash and company and it would have done nothing except make the film better. Granted, I’m contractually obligated to say that about everything, but I think you could literally have erased Ash, May, Brock, and Max from the script and it would have barely affected the plot, because all of the character development happens with Butler.

A couple of people have questioned whether this or that movie villain survived the end of their film, and the answer is always “yes.” The rule of thumb seems to be to kill them off for real in the manga adaptation, and to leave it ambiguous in the film itself but then show them alive in the credits (if not of their own film, then of the next one). I scraped together this illustrative screencap collection for reference/reassurance. Left to right, top to bottom:

  1. Annie and Oakley in prison, reading a book about Lawrence III
  2. Butler and Diane in Forina (background)
  3. Captain Phantom and Galen sharing a prison cell
  4. Newton Graceland visiting Zero in prison, showing him a surviving copy of Infi
  5. Marcus working the land behind Damos
  6. Kodai and Goone being carted off to prison

Also I’m not sure what the theme is here, given that it’s MOSTLY bad guys…except for a few. Also shouldn’t Alberto want a hologram of Alice? Sure he’s an egomaniac but he’s also got a weird crush on her.

Also Jackie that had better be a phone and not a pack of cigs (it is admittedly difficult to tell).

…and with this reblog I now have my first post with something of the dude from the fourteenth movies (“Damon,” I believe it is). I should get around to watching that (them?) sometime.

I’m surprised Butler isn’t more popular, considering he wound up being a pretty big woobie. Sure he has intensely stupid hair, but that hardly is an issue unique to him.

Thanks for the submission! I’m…pretty sure this is the first Butler thing that’s ever been on here? I can never find art of him.
