Depends on the character. Onii-san is a horrible overpowered character, while Ainz-sama is a great overpowered character for me.

It depends. Gilgamesh is OP but he is a good character. If you take the example of Satoru Gojo, imo he is on the same level as Gilgamesh. Personally I always prefer the charcters that are extremely overpowered. Gojo is my favorite character because not only he is extremely overpowered but he is so smuggish. I liked Gilgamesh too because of his narsism with his immense power.

People trying to justify their hate for Kirito based on his age, have definitely never played network games... There are 12 years old beating 20/30 somethings... I bet they hate those kids too...

Incel defending his boy, it could also be the other way in your awful logic.

Yes, I do. Like Madara from Naruto, or 99 percent of One Piece characters at the moment

If they aren’t bland and generic like Touya(Isekai Smartphone) or Kirito(Sword Art Online) then I’m fine with it

I don't hate them, just slightly irritated until actual character development is shown.

I don't hate them, but I think they are increadibly boring and worsen the plot of an anime.
Gojou from JJK is the most recent example. His presence alone makes everything feel unthreatening and he's honestly just lame :x
But hey, most viewers love him, even though he's just the OP teacher trope (at least up to this point), so power seems to be the most important factor for many.

Sorta depends. Tatsuya is OP as fuck but the anime explains like none of it or how their world works and most characters in that universe who are extremely powerful werent totally born that way.

I dont really mind OP characters as long as the story as a whole is good. It isnt a factor in me really liking or disliking an anime.

A character like Subaru from ReZero could be incredibly OP but he just doesnt choose to use it to the max for reasons some maybe good some maybe bad I dunno. There in many cases is effort and the will to be OP in characters that may not be there. It isnt always easy even though it appears to be on screen. LNs sometimes do a better job of making that more obvious many anime just dont.

As someone who likes weak mcs it depends imo. I hate characters whose only personality and role is being strong like Gojou or being cocky like Levi and Hibari. Characters which are generally called badasses. I just don't understand why those types of characters are so popular they're boring imo. But there's other OP characters that I find interesting like Rimuru, Accelerator or Touma. Or if they're characters that start out as weak but we see them progress into being hella OP

Not necessarily, unless the MC is as boring as the dude from Irregular at magic high school.

It's okay, not everyone tends to notice threads getting necro'd (I have fallen victim of them in some instances too).
Thank you for concern, mate ;)

Not if the character is OP in generla, but has an ability, like LIght-kun in Death Note. He is just despicable and worthy to hate, which is a strong word, not to be used too often.

Take care, minna-san

I don't hate specific characters, but I will say this: the power spikes in Promised Neverland ruined the entire manga (and consequently the anime).

There is absolutely no reason some of the demons should be as powerful as they are.

I like them.Especially if the anime's main plot is itself the MC showing his/her power and defeating everyone.

Edit didn't notice at first that this thread was made long ago.

I don't mind overpowered characters when it's good writing involved.

And a character can be well written or not regardless if it's overpowered or not.

I like Gilgamesh as well.....and also Meruem, Levi Ackermann, Guts, Schiercke, Griffith as Femto, Musashi, Thorkell, Claire Stanfield, Shiki Ryougi, Kageyama, Teresa, Saitama.......etc

But I dislike the classic OP character that is brought up frequently Kirito.....and also Kazami Yuuji, Nagumo Hajime, Shiba Tatsuya, the generic overpowered MC from every generic Isekai etc...

It really depends.

For instance, Saitama has a really bland but yet hilarious personality.
He's so funny.

Even tho he's OP as hell, he makes it very entertaining.

So it really depends on the character.

I'd hate them for being overpowered in a way that it's senseless, take for example Rakudai Kishi no Cavalry(the worst anime i've ever watched)

That MC already flunked in school that even if he's OP it doesn't excuse him in being the best knight

On the contrary. They're too fun. I love watching characters like Anos in The Misfit of Demon King Academy just being able to do whatever he wants whenever he likes. It makes for some crazy situations.

I can think of a few examples where it works well, but usually only if it's a comedy or it blends in with the verse itself.
