(He is evil, really. Okay, he had issues but he's still evil (orgies, pills, causing destruction of city, killing large chunks of the city's biker population, trying to squish Kaneda with a forklift truck, bullying small wrinkled children and being mean to Kaori. Yup, evil. EEEVIL.)

(I'd forgotten that. But he so is.)

(I should really stop trying to rewrite the entire theme tune to apply to him.)
