From any and all series, cartoon, comic, movie, etcetera, which single character was Flanderized the hardest? With the obvious exception of Ned Flanders.

>went from a cunt to being an evil cunt
that's not much of a leap, butch never gave his characters any depth

Not nearly close. Her personality and her wickedness remained almost the same; they simply increased her "power level."

Disregarding Ned, I feel like a lot of other simpsons characters fit the bill anyway. Krusty, Barney, Burns, Skinner... they're all parodies in a way that makes it weird seeing them in the early episodes when they weren't what they are now. Here's Abe playing the piano.

How did Barney change? He was a weird alcoholic in the first episode. Except he was blond.

Is there such a thing as de-flanderization

You could call it the Quagmire Quagmire.

is quagmire an actual word?

Yes

Randy Marsh is a big one, he went from being a kind of clueless family man with at least some scientific competence to a retard who gets excited for whatever the new thing Matt & Trey wanted to lampoon was

Homer had it worse than Flanders. He wasn’t inherently dumb or lazy in the first season or the Ullman shorts. He was supposed to be a straightlaced Dad until the rage of his family’s dysfunction causes him to act foolish.

below average human cock can fix her

You're asking for a single character, but I submit Rick and Morty's entire cast of characters. If every single character in a series devolves then surely that's the greatest example of flanderization.
>>
>>155275120
Most of The Fairly OddParents were reduced to this. Cosmo is dumb and gross. Wanda nags. Timmy's parents got dumber. etc.

Rick and Morty started as a straightforward parody of Doc and Marty then developed a bunch of contradictory backstory and melodrama. That's not flanderization.

>>155275326
He stopped drinking for a few seasons

The characters used to have traits which were erased to project a particular central characteristic. That's flanderization.

And the show wasn't a 'straightforward parody' of Back to the Future, that was just the original idea, which was then completely reworked. The actual show that was made was distinct.

Think about the character of Jerry. Or don't. Just go fuck yourself is my point.

everyone in Teen Titans Go
>>
>>155275045

still mad that Teen Titans Go turned robin from a respectable, emotionally centered leader with good detective skills and the skill to stand up to superpowered threats with martial arts, into a manlet incel with control issues.

>inb4 trendy to hate TTG

the other characters in TTG at least retained a flanderized version of their original personality: beast boy and cyborg were the party bros with a codependent relationship, raven was the brains and sorcery expert, starfire was a genki girl / cloudcoockoolander

robin was a flanderized inversion of his original character. that takes extra

>With the obvious exception of Ned Flanders
despite being named after him Flanders isn't even the most flanderized character anyway

I think Stewie would be a better example
