Characters that you hate but other people love?

I always feel like I never liked him myself. He's improved overtime I guess but I still think he's even more mediocre than the unpopular guys. Kinda wish there was more focus on the other port mafia members, I like Kouyou, Ougai, Tachihara, Higuchi, Hirotsu, (pardoning her obsession with akutagawa) and Gin (lol yeah) way better than akutagawa.

Kirito is such a self centered asshole I tried to like him but he comes off as a jerk his harem qualities is annoying and he treats his so called girlfriend as a object.

Chiibi said:
I hate Chii. She's overrated as f*ck. Everyone thinks "she's the most adorable girl ever" but I think in order to be "adorable", you need a....what was it? OH YEAH, A PERSONALITY?

"She's a computer! She's not supposed to have one!" Really? Sumomo and Kotoko are computers too and they have personalities. (Koto's sarcasm is +A) Chii really doesn't develop at all. She's exactly the same as she was at the start of the series...except she can say more words.

Chii's mentally on the same level as a four-year-old girl and considering that she's supposed to be the main love interest of Hideki (who is also incredibly bland) that is f*cking creepy, guys. Chobits is one of those series I used to love and now I can't stand it. It's gross. There is nothing "romantic" about this thing; it's like "adult taking care of a handicapped kid for the rest of his life"; not a guy and girl come together in love because they have great chemistry and are meant for each other despite being human and robot like the series pretends it is.




I disagree. He REALLY respects Asuna and treats her like an equal. At the start of Alicization, he asks her to go with him on his career trip, whereas a lot of anime/manga boys just take off and expect their girlfriend to just wait around for them to come back in three years.

But Kirito is way above that.

hack5 said:
but I think its the author fault with the way their relationship feels,maybe object is too strong a word but something is not right with their relationship

and I don't find it romantic when your girlfriend is part of your harem.

Chiibi said:


If you read the novels, it's absolutely the anime's fault if you feel that way. :/ Kirito is always narrating how much he treasures Asuna and has faith that she is a strong-spirited girl; that is what he is attracted to. He certainly sees her on his level...actually I'm sure he thinks she's "way above" a guy like him but he's always been a touch self-loathing.

Okay cool if you say so



*sighs exasperatedly* It's NOT a "harem", it's a "party of friends gaming together"! Klein and Gil hang out with them too! And the girls give Kirito and Asuna their space when they want to be alone together. They absolutely know their boundaries.

I’m a straight woman but I think he’s ugly as sin. There are way better looking male characters in battle shounen than that turd.

hack5 said:
when every season its some new girl/s who is always into him and add on to his little gang of girl-friends

when the author himself put asuna in certain jealous situations

Chiibi said:
You have a weird definition of "harem" then....

Same too you harem comes in all shape and sizes it have many harem where the main mc has THE girl who is his pick/main heroine but that don't stop the
bit-ches from flocking I will admit kirito harem girls know there place but until (how many are there)gets themself a love interest of their own and stop hovering around then I could see them as good friends instead of I still like him but he has a girlfriend



Oh come on, it's not EVERY season; it's only been two so far; also it's for marketing purposes; anime sell better when there are lots of girls on-screen; no question.


Every season is more than one and I think we are at THE THIRD SEASON


Such as when? o_O Asuna's barely EVER shown jealousy over the other girls. She even had her OWN "girlfriend" at one point or did you forget about that?

Iroha Isshiki from Oregairu comes to mind.

•Megumin is a one-dimensional character with one gimmick, and, like everyone else in season 2, is unjustifiably douchey to Kazuma
•Kirei is a monster, who ruins and kills those who are moreally and ethically better than him, like Lancer, Irisveil, and Kariya.
•Light was interrsting before his villain decay that turned him into a generic "awful for awful's sake" maniac who was also dumber.
•Kira Yamato is the definitive precursor to Suzaku, with hypocritical pacifism, a roulettes whwel moreal conpass, and a bunch of other circumstances in SEED that made me hate him. Plus, he's a Mary Sue that survived impossible circumstances 3 different times.

Some characters in Shingeki no Kyojin. I wouldn't go so far as to say that I hate them, it's just that I could barely care about them or that I don't understand the hype surrounding these characters.

Marco - seriously? Why is he so popular with the fans or more specifically, the fangirls? To me he was just titan food. He's boring and didn't leave a strong impression on me to even feel for his death. Fans have been making memes mourning his death in Facebook, Tumblr and similar websites and I fail to comprehend why they put so much importance on a throwaway character. He's like air who just passed through when I binge watched the anime. They even ship him with Jeanne which I, even as a fudanshi myself, can't possibly understand the connection between these two.

Petra - reasons are mostly the same as Marco. She's uninteresting and people seem to only pity her just because she's implied to have some affection for fan favorite Levi. Basically all the characters, which are just side characters by the way, that have died so far never left an impact to me so I don't understand all the fuss about them.

Mikasa - she's just a Mary Sue character whose entire life revolves around Eren. Badass? Sure. Interesting? Barely. Just an action girl who's got nothing else going on for her.

Jeanne - he's just another noisy character in the show, which is ironically full of noisy characters shouting every goddamn time, whose temper is on par with Eren.

Levi - what made him so popular anyway? Because he kicked Eren? Because he's a clean freak? I never found his appeal. He didn't even contribute to the plot in any way in the first season.

*Megumin is the most interesting character in Konosuba who enhances every scene she's in. Part of what makes her great are her "douchey" interactions with Kazuma which obviously are just comedy. Kazuma is by your logic is the most scum shit person in the series.
*Kirei is meant to be a villain and is very much brilliantly written, he is a "monster" because he is a villain. Villains are not bad because they are evil.
*Light never believed what he did was evil.In his mind his cause has not changed since the beginning and his goal was still to make a new world. The best tricks he pulled were after he killed the FBI member and became "evil".

(dont know the last guy)

CodeBlazeFate said:
No, Kazuma, at least early on, got the right amount of shit he deserved for being a shitbag. In season 2, he's barely even a sleezy dickbag anymore and got hit harder to the point where the non-Aqua girls rarely got shit on anymore. Also, Megumin was primarily just a gimmick one-trick meme character. Outside of just making things worse for Kazuma, the only thing she does is yell EXPLOSION. That's it. She ain't a versatile meme character like Chika from Kaguya-sama turned out to be.

You do realize hating a character isn't the same as making him bad, right? Kirei's pretty great as a villain, so much so that he caused me outrage over his actions.

Light lost a lot of his intelligence and sorta became boring as a character and villain tbh. Then again, it's been years since I've seen this one and I don't care to revisit it, particularly cuz of this final arc.

Glad to see someone shares a similar view on Mikasa as a character. Everywhere i look, she's somehow everyones favourite character, despite the fact that she isn't a character, she's just obsessed with Eren and has no personality. I guess she's kinda badass, but it feels forced, its not organic or believable, its just forced onto the viewer, she's the definition of overpowered. Anyway, glad to see someone with some sense.

Hoddrs said:

*Kazuma is still fucking around in season 2 like he is in season 1 BECAUSE IT IS A COMEDY, Megumin is giving Kazuma shit BECAUSE IT IS A COMEDY it's not meant to be taken seriously and I guess is not meant for oversensitive people who can't figure out that stuff like that is written into the script because it makes things funnier and therefore more enjoyable BEACUSE IT IS A COMEDY. Megumin has always had many things that make her great outside of her EXPLOSION which is a signature move that's recognizable to most people who watch anime.
*People like Kirei because he's a great villain, basically by writing Kirei into this list of characters you hate just because he "does bad things which he should not do" even though he's a villain you should also write a hundred more beloved villains.
*As I said many of Light's more intelligent tricks came AFTER he killed Raye Penber and became "evil" the series as a whole only started to downgrade after L's death and that is a problem with the writing as a whole not just Light. An example is Near who got answers just by intuition and not proper detective work.

CodeBlazeFate said:
Yeah it's a comedy, a shitty comedy that reuses jokes and takes the mean-spirited humor to a new level without having the characters earn the karmic, comedic suffering. Also, name one standout thing Megumin has aside from EXPLOSION! I can't, even if my life depends on it.

Umm no, that's not how that works. It's mainly that I cared so much about everyone that what he did to them, which often involved the kind of awful fate that you don't see too much of in anime, really made me wanna see him get beat the fuck up.

Did you not hear me say the second arc is where it started sucking and stopped being an interesting case of someone mentally going downhill via a god complex and taking "justice" to extremes, and became your typical antagonist with a god complex character. I definitely agree with your points on that last arc going downhill; it's a mediocre and frustrating arc. I could have more explicitly highlighted with the villain decay began tho, that being in that shitty second arc.

Hoddrs said:


*OK we finally came to the source of your frustration since you obviously don't like the whole series I don't know why we bothered arguing about just Megumin but c'mon "mean spirited humor" cry me a river, If you don't like the humor because It's mean spirited how did you make it to s2? Did you just force yourself to watch even though you obviously knew you didn't like it? And I don't know if you want me to name a standout thing about Megumin in terms of how she makes the series into a better comedy or how she's helped the cast, If you're going on about how she hasn't helped the others in the team the series prioritizes the comedy over that so it's irrelevant and since you don't like the entire series and humor is subjective it's obvious you won't accept my answer that she's funny in every scene she's in.

*I understand that and agree that he's a great villain, I made the reply because you didn't seem to understand that It's obvious villains will do evil things. The grim reality of fate/zero is exactly why it's the best fate for most people.

*I made the reply because you seemed to think they made Light dumber after he did things that made him a villain like killing Raye Pember and the FBI which was the turning point for his character when in reality his best trick was after that and the series went downhill after L's death.

Subaru from Re:Zero. The guy is stupid, shouts for being edgy, and is still stupid.

TheoPKTNS said:


The guy died a lot of times and saw his friends die a bunch of times too, I think the dude has his reasons xd

A single episode is enough for that nonsense gruntled face animation coupled with incoherent shouting to show your supposedly good character progression.

That whore Senjougahara from Monogatari
That blonde whore Kaori from your lie in april
That whore louise from zero no tsukaima

Holo from spice and wolf is also boring and annoying at times.
