Sakura Haruno.
Everyone seems to hate on her and deems her to be weak and worthless. But I think she's very strong and determined.

When I think back on it, I didn't mind Shinji for most of the series. What I don't like is the "trend" he has created, where anime creators give characters as much angst as possible because they think "well evangelion did it so it must be cool." It's the same when they imitate Rei's character. It was cool when Eva did it because that was the first show I had seen with such a character, but I don't want to see emotionless girls over and over. I could have done without Anya in Code Geass. I could have done without the alien girl in Haruhi. It's getting to the point where they clearly just throw them in everywhere to please the fanboys.


This. I hate 90% of the Shinji knockoffs. I don't necessarily think it's a bad idea to have a Shinji-like character, but I find most anime just can't pull it off, and we end up with pathetic losers who mope around for no good reason until they have a really dumb epiphany to snap out of it and save the day. I like Shinji though.

I also like Suzaku from Code Geass and Rossiu from Gurren Lagann. Sure, Suzaku was always getting in Lelouch's way, but he was such a great foil, and somewhat complex at that. Rossiu might seem like a jerk, but he was doing what he thought was the right thing, I mean, can you imagine how painful it was for him to do what he did? He was so level-headed, but I guess being reasonable had nothing to do with succeeding in that show, lol.

This guy. Absolutely.
Misa Amane, too. I don't see why people are always hatin' and calling her unimportant to the plot.

Also, adult Rossiu.

Near (Death Note) – He’s not that bad. Sure, he’s a total L wannabe and he uses hax, but who wouldn’t in his situation?

Kurumi (Kimi ni Todoke) – One of the better characters in the show, I think (along with Yano). I personally couldn’t stand Sawako. Kurumi’s arc was the best part of the show for me.

Suzaku (Code Geass) – He’s hilarious.

Since we already have a thread for characters you hate that everyone else likes, why not try to opposite as well?

I personally liked Minori from Toradora, I didn't notice that she was hated until I finished the show.

Believe me, we have these kind of threads too, many times. The only remaining options are:
- which character you love but everyone loves
- which character you hate but everyone hates

Really? If there really is another thread that is the same as mine, then I guess this one will be locked soon enough.
I've only seen the "_____ you hate that everyone else loves" kind of threads so I was just trying to make things a bit more positive here.

Maybe there should be a thread and discussion about the people who make anime, and how they seem to hate certain characters.

Example:
Well whoever wrote the episodes from D-Frag seems to hate Sakura, skipped a chapter in the anime, which killed off her characterization and the start and reason of her interest in Kazama.
The anime also shows more focus on Roka than Takao, therefore they like Roka more and hate Takao more.

Is Sekai hated a lot by fans? I know personally I didn't hate her character, I just felt sorry for her.

I'm going to say the other character from School Days, Makoto Itou. He did what any testosterone filled teenager would do if he found himself in the middle of a harem. I definitely did not hate him, I enjoyed his character and felt sorry for him.

It felt like a lot of people didn't seem to like Near or Mellow from Death Note, I kinda liked them!

Maybe everyone was kinda just bitter about L? Not sure, I thought they were pretty cool though.

I did like Mello but Near pisses me off because he's an L ripoff. At least Mello was his own person. Though I can see why people like Near, especially with what happened near the end of Death Note.

Suzaku from Code Geass comes to mind. I love him to bits, and was honestly so surprised when I found out the extent that people hate him!

Also, I know that she is fairly popular, but I think that Kaname Chidori of FMP! gets some hate. I understand that some people dislike out-spoken, fierce, tsundere-type characters but she's just so utterly lovable!

Most ppl hate his noble attitude towards lelouch while he doomed his country when he did what he did to his OWN father...Damn, and that as a child!...Suzaku would be a mental case in irl...



The one that comes to mind is Aizen? He kept me entertained and had one of the best intro's ever<3

Koko in Golden Time and Yuno from Mirai Nikki

Like, come on guys, there's some fun to be had with the crazy bitches.

(especially when they are crazy for legit reasons)

They are entertaining to watch so I don't know why people dislike them other than they aren't perfect "waifu" material or something.

Thou I'd probably fuck both just sayin'.

I like Twilight Sparkle and Fluttershy a lot. If only their show was called "Guitar Ninja: Friendship Conquers All", more non-bronies would have been super pumped to watch it. Guitar Ninjas are the definition of awesomeness!

The only ones I can think of that I like but other people hate are...

Taiga of Toradora fame, as tsundere characters are always controversial.

Satoko of Higurashi, who is disliked for being bratty and obnoxious.

and finally, Sakurako of Yuru Yuri is pretty much a combination of the above.

Damn, I just could never like Shinji no matter how hard I tried honestly (Watched all Evangelion related material besides Death and Rebirth). He was extremely whiny and indecisive throughout the whole anime, and just had an unlikable personality that I hated (along with Asuka, although I may have liked her a little more than him). I tried to empathize with him after learning about his background and seeing how his dad treated him, but I just couldn't in the end.

Even when protagonists are like that (very whiny, indesisive) I feel like it is okay if they A) Don't stay like that for an exorbitant amount of time and B) their character actually develops enough and they become more mature or a better person at some point in the series. I feel like both of these things are missed in NGE.

I liked Suzaku and Near.

The thing is though that Evangelion doesn't actively try to get the viewer to feel sorry for the characters. That'd be a bit contradicting to the fact that it spends a fair amount of time showing you that the characters are actually bad people. It's a pretty objective show where emotions and opinions don't mean much when discussing it. Essentially, you can try to emphasize all you want with the characters, but if you don't understand and accept why the characters are who they are, you've missed part of the point.

And I mean that in the most sexually painful way possible.

I didn't actually mind him being wimpy, as I doubt anyone could really know if they'd have more guts in such a situation. However I hated his "zombie" state in EoE.

Like some of the people here, I didn't find Shinji too wimpy. In fact, I thought his actions were perfectly normal (minus the last 2 episodes) for a socially withdrawn 14-year old.

He is a walking shounen stereotype that's also relatively annoying. Of course people will hate him.
