The main cast of Chunibyou demo koi ga shitai.(till S1 ep 5)
I know that Humor/comdey is subjective but it's kinda funny how every major character ranging from beta Male mc,stupid eyeptach Rem , Twintail lesbian loli to Normie tsundere jerk girl managed to irritate and infuriate me in just 5 episodes forcing me to drop a series that I was enthusiastic to watch.

Lefiya from Danmachi Sword Oratoria. I really like the first series of DanMachi, but the spin-off was just... meh (for me). I think a little bit was the fault of the story, and also because even if there was aiz as the protagonist was not said much about her, and probably also because I hoped to discover something more about the mysteries of the first season (but you can’t say much about this because it was a spin-off and in the second season you don’t discover nothing about the mysteries of the first season too). But I think Lefiya considerably worsened it. She was so annoying!

Every character from ERASED pissed me off to some degree but the main character was the one to ruin the series for me from episode one. If only he had 50 more IQ points.

The main character from Kokoro Connect embodies everything I hate about whiny characters who don't do anything and do incredibly dumb stuff for the sake of doing dumb stuff. Ruined what would be an otherwise decent melodrama.

I hate many shounen main protagonists like Natsu, Luffy or Naruto because of their plot armour and repetitive "heroic" final battle for every arcs in their series.

Wolfram von Bielefeld has completely ruined Kyo Kara Maoh for me. I find it really annoying how anything he does, including (officially) stalking and abusing Yuuri, is seeing as very romantic simply because he's a bishounen. The series would have been so much better without this overly obsessive self-entitled asshole around.

Deku from Bnha
If only the mc isn't him. I probably won't hate bnha series. He is such a crybaby n very generic battle shounen mc...
Deku was like a crybaby for not even a whole season in the 1st season and hasn't been a crybaby since, so this criticism is basically non-existent.

It definitely didn't ruin the anime, but she did extremely annoy me, Nene from New Game!

I really enjoy New Game and it might be one of my favourite slice of slice shows, but god was Nene annoying, she acted like a brat and her voice made me want to scream every time she came on.

If it helps at all, Taiju isn’t the MC of the show after like ~4 episodes. In fact, he hasn’t been seen once after it.

Yea, all the time. One terrible character is all it takes for me to either drop a series or eternally shit on a show I finished. And I'm not talking about purposefully "bad" characters that serve a role that's appropriate to the narrative, but rather just blatantly poor writing. I couldn't even begin to start naming all the characters that fall into this category for me.

Menma from AnoHana was incredibly annoying, especially in the early episodes, and the loli fanservice of her didn't help either. That was, incidentally, a lot of why I didn't like Shiro from No Game No Life - maybe I'm just weird, but incestuous relationships involving 11-year-old girls don't really appeal to me.

Similarly, Togame from Katanagatari was also annoying and her catchphrase grating, though at least she wasn't an underage girl so the gratuitous fanservice wasn't quite as bad.

Of course there were some characters that ruined the series. For me, I was struggling to continue Nejimaki Seirei Senki. The beginning of the story was enjoyable to watch. And then some characters just.... not for me, I guess (I'm sorry I'm not going to say which characters)

Misa from Death Note. Not only does her recklesssness and stupidity get in the way of the intricate mind games between Light and L, she's the most irritating character I've seen in any sort of media. Part of the reason I enjoyed Death Note so much was the calm, collected characters and the more dark tone. Shoving what is essentially a bratty toddler into the middle of it really hampered my enjoyment.

I'm so sure that's Oikura Sodachi from Owarimonogatari (Monogatari Series).

This is not the worst character ever, but she was introduced by the series that has the best character-development in anime industry so far. All the characters come to scenes are so way adorable, but Sodachi.

They tried to create one more Stundere, then they made a secondaty product. She wasn't as good as Senjougahara was. She didn't affect the story-line hardly too! Did her appearance was just for filling some arc ?? Some longgggg annoying arc ???

Idk about 'ruining' a series, but Fuko in Clannad seriously annoyed me. The entire arc on her was quite ridiculous and even after that the gags with her appearances ruined the mood of the scenes I was enjoying.

The mc of ushio to tora, I've never seen something so generic in my life(though the show is already generic).

The other one may be deku but i actually don't hate him and he didn't make me wanna try the suicide, But sometimes he's pretty annoying but nothing more than that.

Word of wisdom.

The premise of the show is ok, but those 2 mcs are pure trash tier that I dropped the show halfway.

Ayano (pink hair girl) from Stigma of the wind, ugh I hated her and I didn’t like how the show pair her up with the badass MC. She was annoying and useless, she was the worst type of tsundere. The show itself was great but that girl made me despise the show, such a cool MC wasted.

Ahahahha HAH HAHAAAAAAAAHAHHA Tamaki from Enen Shouboutai. An unhealthy obsession of the authors manifested in a trait most foul. I do not usually just stop watching series, if I've gotten past first 2-3 episodes, but the existence of said character tremendously contributed to my hinted decision.

Katsuki Bakugou from BNHA. He annoyed my very much and i was close do dropped the series because of him

Oh yes, I really dislike this sort of characters although he's even a better one, if you could say that.

Not ruined, but now, from Kimetsu no Yaiba: it started great for me until Tanjirou met his companions, and help, Inosuke was annoying af, even more so than Zenitsu. Zenitsu is on the okayish-side while being annoying sometimes, but I think Inosuke is just ... kind of primitive? I know it's the point about him and I hope he'll get even more development then, but nothing annoys me so much as he does haha sorry.
I really don't like the group dynamics now and still don't know how to rate it. I'm between 7 and 8, I think.

Mikan from Jitsu wa Watashi wa
She is such a bitch. She is a school journalists who loves to bully the MC and his friends just so she could have content to share with the rest of the school regardless of how personal that information may be. As she is one of the main characters I had to drop the show.

Ryouta Samakoto from Btooom!
He is the average wimpy MC who continues acting like a bitch whilst being fully aware of what is happening.

Extremly retarded.

I'm sensing a trend here, since the character that I can think of that half-ruined a show (I had it on hold for literal months because of him) is a pink-haired guy. Can't remember his name, but he's the main """villain""" from kujira no kora. So fucking stereotyped, so fucking predictable and annoying that he was really an atrocity of a character.

Also, that cockblocker girl Mikaru from Mermaid Melody season 2, I liked the anime until the moment she appeared and stole the main guy from Luchia, dropped this show 5 years ago and won't pick up this anime ever again.

Yuno and Yuki from Mirai Nikki pretty much make the anime unbearable to watch. Almost every single side character (besides Tsubaki and 11th) is more interesting and entertaining than our two leads.
Kanna, Elma, Riko and Lucoa from Kobayashi's Dragon Maid, which is a shame because I really liked Tooru
Moa and Cyan from Show by Rock!!
