Here's something funny about what I think about Cell.

While most villains get scarier if they get stronger, but I actually saw Cell less scary as he was getting stronger. He was more scary when he was Inperfect Cell, for 3 reasons

1. His way of killing people by liquating people with his tail snucking them dry like a straw and doing this to more than 600,000 people meaning he killed more people in Inperfect form than the other forms. Also the spooky factor was even more emphaized with who saw him do the method

2. The whole buildup to him, Unlike the other main villains he comes out of nowhere and the build up to him is handled well with clues being dropped that something is at work. It's like a horror fic or a movie with an alien lifeform.

3. His rather high intellgence and strategy was good compensation for the fact that - for the moment - our heroes could still defeat him before he obtained the power he needed,  He rarely gloated, doesn't get brash in fighting where it would be more cost effective to run instead. He takes advantage of the fact that the heroes can only react to his actions by striking quickly and then leaving before they have time to arrive. He bides his time and acts very patiently, only taking action when he is absolutely sure he can succeed - and when he does fight, he is ruthlessly efficient. Should anyone stand in his way or attack him, he always makes sure to take care of them immediately if he can and do so quickly, rather than let them escape to continue to thwart him later, knowing that while he could take the others at his leisure he couldn't allow the only beings nearly as powerful as him to continue to act against him.
