| NOTE: Only Drakken Joe from Universe 1 and 2 qualifies as a hate sink, as his Universe 0 counterpart has too many redeeming qualities. |
Drakken Joe is the main antagonist of the Sakura Cosmos Saga from the Edens Zero anime and manga series. He serves as the overarching antagonist for the Guilst arc, Digitalis arc, and Sun Jewel arc before becoming the main antagonist of the Belial Gore arc. He is a vicious loan shark that offers painful punishments to loaners who fail to pay him back his money. His criminal activities are what led to Guilst becoming a planet full of criminals and the people that live inside his Belial Gore are trapped in villainy from his debts.
