What scene or action(s) really tells you Aku is as evil as he boasts and not a villain always played for laughs?

Lulu being almost certainly dead.
Holding the Princess's planet hostage.
Killing all of those sea people.
Sending that one guy to the mines, after stealing all of his people's water.
Killing Demongo so brutally.
Crucifying all those doggo slaves.
Literally all of the scenes in Japan with Aku/his minions.
Creating the Ultrabots.
Jack being infected by Aku.

Those are just the ones that spring to mind that we see on screen, and not the implied things like "enslaving billions upon billions of people for millennia."

The time he date-raped Jack via a false-identity

The graveyard episode where he becomes a bunch of evil tentacles and almost kills Jack

> killing Demongo

That's not really bad though seeing who/what that is.

The scene when the lava monster tells his story to Jack.

It tells you how evil he is though, it isn't about the net good killing Demongo caused. He iced that fucker, despite coming so close to killing Jack. He didn't even give it a second thought, just straight up crushed him in the palm of his hand.

>Lulu

...

Sweet thing.

>someone help aku out of desperation for his help
>Aku: "I changed my mind."

I'd say it's harder to find times where he's a villain played for laughs.

Off the top of my head, the only thing I can really think of is the time he gets insecure that the children don't enjoy his story telling.

But that can be mostly chalked up to him having a childish sense of justice and that the story telling is a reflection of how he views the world.
