I read hornets vlog on pure of heart and I'll say this, I'm not much of a fan of that category, and like you said just because someone is always smiling and is always being kind no matter what doesn't always mean they are pure, spongebob is an extremly kind and caring individual, but honestly he never goes through any sort of dilemma to prove his purity, unlike samurai jack and aang(although I honestly don't count him as such) who have gone through extremly difficult dilemmas but always proved they are incorruptible, spongebob and Riley from inside out have gone through no such ordeal. They just make stupid decisions and then go back on it, that's not exactly a dilemma.

And then there's cm, just because a villain is constantly being cruel and shows no positive traits whatsoever (case and point: numerous dragonball z villains and full metal alchemist villains) doesn't mean they automatically count, but everytime there is a villain with no positive or sympathetic traits they are immediately added. Frieza and drago bludvist proved how savage and cruel they are in their limits. The ones mentioned above might have gone that far, but they are either killed too early or don't have much to go with to truly count.

Honestly I have problems with both tropes, many cms don't seem vile enough or don't go far enough and numerous poh have shown faults or have gone through no conflict to prove their purity.
