Simple rule of life. No one is perfect. People make mistakes, including those who have the role of the hero/heroes. The ones that stand out to me for the moment:
1. All versions of Spider-Man: Granted this is during his short lived stinct as an entertainer, he makes the decision to let a burglar run past him (most versions because he is indifferent whereas Spectacular he does it to get even with the fight promoter for cheating him out of money). As a result, his Uncle Ben is gunned by the same guy.
2. The Legend of Zelda "The Moblins Are Revolting": Long story short. Ganon is trapped in an energy bubble. A bubble that only the Triforce of Power can destroy. So Link, being the goofball portrayed by the cartoon, tosses Ganon around like a ball and nearby the Triforce.
And yet, Zelda chooses not to fire him or lock him in the dungeon. Go figure.
3. The Real Ghostbusters "X-Mas Marks the Spot": The Ghostbusters remedy this one, but still messed up in the first place regardless. The episode begins with them on a drive only for a timewarp to old England. During their time there, they successfully bust three ghosts. The ghosts who are suppose to rehabilitate Ebeneezer Scrooge, unfortunately.
As a result, Christmas through time is rejected by society thanks to Scrooge's book "A Christmas Humbug". Needless to say, Egon is successful in retrieving the 3 Ghosts, and Christmas is restored, but way to mess up guys.
