What the title says. Also why?

Seems like something rare so I thought I'd ask to see if anyone had that experience.

I think the closest thing for me that was "like to dislike" would be Tanda in Seirei No Moribito. Although, he went more from promising to boring. I thought he'd bring something at least a little memorable to the show and he never did. Likable but in the painfully dull sense. There were many things they could have done with the character and it just never happened.

The entire cast of Code Geass, ESPECIALLY Lelouch. The only exceptions would be Nunnally, who I did not end up hating, and Suzaku, who I've hated since the beginning.

Zero Two from Darling in the FranXX... I remember I thought she was the best thing ever when I first saw her, but as the show went on her character seemed to only revolve around her relationship with the MC and she just became less interesting.


What's the difference?

I guess I would say Eren Yaeger*. I understand the way the show wants to portray him, but he's still annoying lol.

Ichimatsu in Osomatsu-san. When I first watched it I liked him but as I looked back on it and watched the second season, he’s boring and his negative/scary gimmick gets old fast.

Definitely Ichigo and Ash Ketchum. Both of them started off kind of interesting, but they developed into boring and bland characters.

At first, I really liked Subaru, and thought he had "depth". But as the anime progressed, and I thought about it, I realized his, "character development" was absolutely rushed, and many of his actions made no sense. Also, I grew to really hate his quirky personality.

It was especially painful for me because she was my first anime crush. Well, you know the saying... First is the worst.

Not sure if you're talking about the comic but Eren changes an unfathomable deal therein as he ages wherewith the TV series has not yet caught up.

Fans seem to either love or hate the change but suffice to say that Eren is now a calculating, cool and collected strategist with no anger left in him willing to sacrifice the lives of the few for the benefit of the many.


It is obvious that "obscenity" is not a term capable of exact legal definition; in the practice of the courts, it means "anything that shocks the magistrate".

Shinji Ikari. I know it's commonplace for people to bash on him for his constant whinning and how he keeps running away from his responsibilities, but I was able to sympathise with him somewhat given what he, a young teenager, was put through. And when he actually confronted his father as well as try and form a relationship with his friends and co-workers...oh and, y'know, got inside the Eva without persuasion, yeah I actually cheered for him, even as the situation slowly turned bleak with the introduction of the dummy plug and Kaworu. But then I watched End of Evangelion and lost all the credibility I gave him as he left Misato, Asuka and everyone in Nerve HQ to die.

I think Index fits this.
At first, seeing index I'm pretty attracted to her. White haired character will always get a plus no matter how bad their personality is for me. And tho green isn't my fav color, her eyes were pretty, and the fact she's a loli is cute.
Too bad, as I'm watching the anime, she's too whinny and bites without even willing to hear reasons... Somehow that has stepped over my bottom line even for white haired character...


I'm starting to get embarrassed by my own forum signature line.. XD

Kosaki Onodera, she seemed like a cute character but there were scenes were i just couldnt stand her later on.
And.. Gon from HxH, i didnt mind him too much at the start and while i acknowledge he is good written, i still despise the moments where he's just selfish or totally ignorant.

Makoto Tachibana. I KNOW, he's a fan favourite, but he isn't mine as of season 2 and forward. The obsessive behaviour thinly veiled by a constant sunshine smile really irks me. He could've been a better character had the writers cared more about fleshing him out rather than focusing on others, but it is what it is.
if you told me we were dreaming, i would pinch you to prove we're awake.

The Louise–Saito dynamic was great in the first season but it seems like after that point when they more-or-less became a couple they needed to come with ridiculous excuses to continue to keep Louise perpetually angry. "I'm embarrassed about my feelings for a peasant and overcompensate." was a cute dynamic but "I get angry about everything and Saito is constantly cheating on me so it's not unjustified." is not
