Well, he is a CHAR. He's very likable and loyal friend.

I don't like flawless characters, but I don't like human trash and amoral characters or sociopaths either.
With most of my favorite characters I would also get along pretty well, I guess.

Especially with Wei Wuxian and he's one of the most likeable characters I have ever seen, but he also has this cocky and bold side on him too, he gives zero fucks about rules most times, he can be annoying towards his environment and short-tempered and when people get him to his breaking point, he can become very hateful to outright scary and he becomes more cynical over time. (but tbh, I understood it very well in these situations) ... but he's still extremely likeable to me. These things just make a character much more human.

It should be likeable, at least to you in some way. How else would you call it your favorite character?

I'm not sure that I have a one single favorite character that reigns over all of the others, but, if I can say that most of my favorite characters are likeable. I usually don't vibe with villains unless they have some sort of secret good intention.

Probably both likable and unlikable. He’s considered one of the most popular characters in all of anime, but there’s a lot of people out there who dislike him too, which is completely understandable. I just love sophisticated characters

She's liked by many, but disliked by some fans of other female characters.

I'd say 4/10 of my favorite characters are absolutely likeable, the other six are debatable. (especially the punpun characters.)

I'm right, you're wrong.

Out of my dozen or so favorite characters, the main unlikable ones I would argue are likable and should be liked, they just happen to be disliked more than liked: suzaku from code Geass and Scar from FMAB. Like the opposite of an anti-hero, an anti-antagonist perhaps

Sakurajima Mai is probably loved by everyone.
Hanekawa, Sakura, and Yui are debatable.

One's own opinion on my favorite characters and if they're good or not is entirely subjective.

I'd say Griffith is the most unlikeable character out there, though his charisma, enigmatic and dynamic personality along with mesmerizing and unsettling dualities is what makes him so compelling and engaging.

Akari is the epitome of likeability. I'd say none of my favorite characters are unlikeable or controversial except maybe Phos

Urara is likeable for a kuudere. I've heard others hate her because of very clingy, so it isn't enough huh?

Yuuichi is not a character someone would see the appeal at first blush like say Luffy. But I think in the narrative a decent number of people would become extremely invested in him like I did. But in general I'd say he's unlikeable

My favorite characters are likeble to me :3
What debating with DigiCat is like according to APolygons2
That's why I thought a discussion would be pointless. It doesn't feel like a debate. It feels like I'm playing chess and somehow lose to an uno reverse card after loosing all my monopoly money lol

To directly answer your question... I can't tell you that, because I really don't think I'm capable of answering such a thing. To me they are very likable characters.

"The only thing I say is, try to think objectively"

To me, you failed immediately when you asked if they are "likable" or "unlikable," something that I find to be severely subjective. How is this even measured? What is it relative to? If the majority accepts them or not? Which in my opinion is hard to determine.
Everyone is different and values different things. It's ok if somebody finds a character likeable, or unlikable.

Not everyone likes a "sweetheart" character. There are many "sweetheart" characters that are my favorite, that many people vehemently dislike. At the end of the day not everyone will always love my favorite characters, and that's ok, and I won't always like theirs.

Or do you mean they are loved in-universe? I think it's a fool's errand to appeal to everyone, just like a hero can not save everyone, but I'm pretty sure me saying that is at best a non-sequitur.

I gravitate to antiheroes and mischievous characters. If they aren't an outright villain then their usually at least considered to be an asshole by other characters.

All of them depend on personal takes from others. What matters is that I like them.
