Stubborn, Weak, Overconfident, Selfish, Egotistical, Rude, and mean to others to and always wants the male character to herself. I hate that the most. -___-

Bad writing for starters.


What if the intent a writer has is to make an annoying character? There has to be character traits and writing devices to facilitate such an want other than just being badly written.

I find it funny that people in this thread are so ignorant of the fact that some characters are going to be annoying because that's how the writer wanted them to be.

But there are times when they are annoying and that's not clearly the way the writer wanted them to be.

And?
My talking about intentionally annoying characters doesn't mean no character can be unintentionally annoying. There's no "but", this topic has plenty of mention to how people feel about unintentionally annoying characters.

If a character cockblocks the main couple from kissing or pursuing their love...

When the main character is very loud-mouthed, bratty, and complains a lot in a childish way and not a troll way

It depends on what some of you guys mean by "cockblock". If some characters weren't cockblocked, the anime would have been a hentai instead, and of course most of you critics would bitch about that. I guess some people just don't know what they want.

I don't usually... judge any character as a "bad" character, even if I do not like them. There is such a thing as bad characteristics. ^^

Characters that change personality for no reason.

Characters like Ganta (from Dumbass Wonderland), Amano Yuuki (Mirai Nikki) and Renton (Eureka 7) who just whine a whole lot and when they get thrown into a situation they just freeze up and start crying and denying they are there in a fit of self-deceit.

I hate those sort of people.

- Characters who have no proper writing and development yet they appear everywhere.
- Characters who change everyone's lives and they are worshipped and loved by everybody.
- The normal brown headed boy who gets thrown into a mess and just whine endlessly.
- Females who get easily controlled by their boyfriends, and think their whole life most revolve around that person.
- Males who feels obligated to protect their female comrades although she can probably take on a whole army herself.

This. Although the reason is most probably fanservice BUT STILL. It is annoying.

This is a good one. Nothing more annoying than watching a 'intelligent' character totally fail to realize all sorts of obvious things.

What makes character annoying?
"A Boring Brand of Evil" is the most annoying character type in anime history. So, This one is the best example to answer this question.

Let me introduce, Noumi from accel world.



A boring, scum, and pathetic villain. No motives, no facets, and forget dimensions. The so-called force of evil has no personality perks independent from his thin villainous persona, which is played up to such a ridiculous extent. A pathetic bag of tropes made to illicit as much anger as possible from the audience.

When they're one (or all) of the following:

- Tsundere
- Yandere
- Comic relief with literally one joke being repeated over and over
- Girl with the highest-pitched voice possible
- Dense harem protagonist
- Gary Stu/Mary Sue
Who are you and why do you show your hostility towards a complete stranger whom you've not once spoken with before. Are you seriously asking to get blocked? Well, if that's what your intent is; to tempt me into throwing hands with someone as lowly and insignificant as you, then i may grant your wish provided you articulate yourself a bit better when trying to spite a person of my wavelength.

If a character stays flat throughout the whole series. For me, I don't mind if a character lacks courage in the beginning of the series as long as he/she gets character development as the series progresses and ends up having that courage by the end.

There are a lot of things that can make an anime character annoying. Common things I dislike would be "violent for no reason", "acts dumber to make someone else look smart" and "to cool for everything".

Hell yes. She wasn't only selfish as fuck for no reason, but she was a racist who developed a massive destruction weapon and when it killed thousands she said 'It was unintentional'. Fuck Nina, hell.

if a character has inconsistent motivations or reacts to things in ways that contradict their previous motivation (and their change in behavior isn't dealt with by the narrative).

characters that are just annoying in a more traditional sense don't really bug me i guess.

to me is when:
- is rude to other for nothing
- screams a lot
- does nothing but get in the way of stuff
- doesn't accept when things don't go their way

but to me the most annoying of them all:
when a character is really childish or dumb as hell and do a lot of things that are stupid, negative or bad for other people but no one gives a shit because this character is dumb and everyone is like 'ooh it's just his/her way.. ' god, I don't mind when they are dumb or clumsy or anything like that I just don't like how they are insentive about stuff they do

It's funny how with the exception of Yoshida (who I don't know), both Usopp and Shinpachi are one of my favourite character from their respective anime. However I can see why you can think of them as annoying.
