| Yes, Mineta’s a subpar character, is a total joke, and is not relevant to the plot. But for a comic relief character, he’s widely hated. Why does he warrant so much hate when there are bigger and far worse offenders (in terms of pervertedness) in anime such as Meliodas? |

| haha welp its too late now To the topic: Unfortunately there are some serious people who do not find characters like Mineta funny. Since that is the case, he is found to be only annoying to them. |
ええ、私はそこにいてそれをやった  |
| Because he isn't funny and he is a piece of shit that always makes the same joke? |
 |
| I'd prefer Meliodas to that little creepy kid any day.... I don't mind a perverted character clearly since Meliodas is in my favorites, there's just something about Mineta I don't like for whatever reason. |
| Mineta and Melodias are both shit characters but I agree Melodias is far trashier since he's a mary sue who gets away with his horseshit antics while Mineta is simply a joke character. |

| 90% pervert, 10% hero. 100% trash. Unnecessary character that can be remove and nothing will change. |

| mineta best boy, a role model to us all |
 |
| Also perverted characters stopped being funny over a decade ago. It's always the same shit and is so fucking stale at this point. Its a sign of a creatively stunted writer. |

| Long story short, I have no reason to root for a chump whose only notable actions are attempts to sexually harass his classmates. Even guys like Miroku from Inuyasha and Master Roshi from Dragonball were at least generally heroic people who had personalities and motivations beyond the gross shit they pulled. Mineta is just an excuse to shove titty on screen against the wishes of the people said titty belongs to. |
| because he's a deconstruction of the anti hero |
| poop |
| Because usually, comic relief characters have at least one redeeming quality. Mineta is simply annoying. Everything about him, from his design to personality, ability, actions, and pervy attitude is made to piss you off. HE just doesn't work as a good character. He has no real role in the story either... With him or without him the story would go the same way. Where in most of other anime, the comic relief character is an important part of the cast, who influence the story... in both subplots and main plot. Team Rocket from Pokemon, for example, is a comic relief trio, but is also one of the main antagonists, Sunohara from Clannad is also a comic relief character, but he plays crucial roles in two arcs at least, one being his own. Yogi from FMA Brotherhood is a comic relief character but once again plays important roles in the events of the anime. And so on. Mineta has no redeeming quality. Even if there are some growth and development, he is simply so annoying that it doesn't work. |

| Because the natural urges of male teenagers are frowned upon in this post-feminist movement even to the point that fictional characters that are a reflection of the reality that these teenagers exist are hated by society to discourage creation of simular characters and to further demonize the real-life equivalent which leads to men believing that because they like the female form and them wanting to reproduce with the females who have said features they are doing something immoral causing them to no longer produce offspring alltogether or produce offspring with not suitable mates lowering the chances of survival for the newborns both of which lower birthrates and will most likely if continued over a long period of time lead to the destruction of our modern western society in itself as it's populace will no longer have the numbers to sustain this society or will simply be dwarfed by other societies that dont discourage the mating ritual of it's male members so it would be wise for us who have realised the destructive nature of disapproving of characters like Minata to instead champion him and by doing this fight back against our current destructive societal norms. |

Why does he warrant so much hate when there are bigger and far worse offenders (in terms of pervertedness) in anime such as Meliodas? Edit: Oops, wrong board I posted in. I love mineta. In this PC era where everything is rape i like mineta pissing people off. Also, at least mineta gets punished and people in the story treat him like a pervert while meliodis never gets punished for the sexual harassment and people ignore his actions. In, addition, if it was not for mineta i would not get fanservice from the girls and i love me some ashido. |
Nine-TailedJosh said: Meliodas is also a shit character dude. I don't respect any characters like them (except maybe Jiraiya, but he wasn't that bad, so...) and I honestly just find them gross. Jaraiya was perverted towards a tranny naruto. That's pretty bad. |
| Because he's so annoying what else? |

Whgedia said: The thing is that MHA has the potential to be really amazing ( right now is pretty good, but is not great ) and having the time wasted on jokes when they could give development to characters that has no depth to them is kinda annoying. One of its genres is comedy. What are you talking about? It is a slow paced show that puts character development first, all the time. You are just complaining about nothing. |
| Like you said he's a comic relief character, but he's not funny. He fails at the one job he has. And tbh he's pretty useless since there's comedy scenes involving the other characters anyways, which are a million times better than anything with Mineta. |

No one's saying you can't have those urges. Just keep that shit to yourself unless you're actually in a relationship with someone where they are comfortable with you indulging in those types of behaviors with them. Otherwise, it's seriously creepy and makes people extremely uncomfortable. Don't go justifying your disgusting actions just because it brings you pleasure. That's selfishly decadent. Man that guy( RandomPerson4) typed a lot. I could see the cosmos has i read it. Anyway, calm down. He is saying mineta acts as a character to escape into and live one's perversions. Perversions that are indeed common to male and females, yep those two only genders. People do over-react to this character as the character was intended for teenage boys to relate there perversions since it is well a SHOUNEN, it is meant for horny teens. Not that horny adults can't also enjoy god's gift known as Momo. IT IS FICTION AFTER ALL. The mangaka said it himself that he made mineta because like him he is "a little dirty sometimes," his exact translated words. It is a fantasy, a work of fiction so people should calm down. |

MHA is not a slow paced show, Monster it´s slow paced show, Blood+ it´s slow paced show, heck even Soukyou no Fafner it´s a slow paced show, but MHA? MHA is fast paced show. I´m answering a question that the OP ask. So if you say that I´m complaining for nothing you´re just wrong... The series is slow paced. The individual arcs are fast but overall it takes quite some time to get from a to b. Three seasons for MC to master 8% OFA. |

I agree with you. So inciting this was. I enjoy mineta as a character. During the MHA movie a lot of people cheered in the theater. I was shocked. |
| comparing meliodas to mineta and why mineta is the most hated character? it's simply because he is ugly bastard. that's why kaminari is not getting any hate even though he is exactly doing the same thing as Mineta. |
| I don't mind perverted characters, but Mineta is kinda boring. His ability is also quite stupid. I don't hate him, but I wouldn't miss him if he wasn't around. |
| He's useless, annoying, and gets away with everything. Somehow becomes a "hero" but he is far from one. |
 |
| I don't watch that anime but I'm trying to blend in here. It's practically what I had in mind, the characters were really not to my liking. Seen a bit on tv. |
| Everybody hatin my dude but once he gets his own arc he might start getting the respeckt he deserves. |
| Signature removed. Please follow the signature rules, as defined in the Site & Forum Guidelines. |
| Because people find him annoying. I personally don't hate him tho. |
 "All that is gold does not glitter, Not all those who wander are lost; The old that is strong does not wither, Deep roots are not reached by the frost." |
| I think Momonosuke from One Piece is a pretty decent comparison to Mineta, going by the comments here, they're short, ugly, perverted.. but! Momonosuke perverse is not his entire character. He's not written in the story to be the comedic relief, or the joke of the series. He has a role to play in the story, and he's coming to understand his role and the importance of his heritage as the series goes along, he's growing as a character and his perverse is only there occasionally for jokes. Where as Mineta has no role to play in the story, doesn't have a defining character outside of his perverted nature, he's literally just there for the joke. And the worst thing? He's got at least 7 years on Momonosuke but somehow is less mature and a lot more hollow characterization wise. They're both side/supporting characters in respective series. Most people who like Mineta only like him not because of who he is, but because of how he's being treated by the community, got nothing to do with his character or anything like that. |

I think it's because his balls keep popping off, and he keeps getting them sticky :D |
| I don't like Mineta. Like at all. I think he's just a waste of space in MHA and his "humor" is stale. Ignoring that, Kaminari is a much better example of a perverted comic-relief character in MHA because his perversion isn't his defining characteristic. He has goals, aspirations, a personality, and a general respect for the rest of his classmates. Yeah, the cheerleader trick wasn't his best moment, but nowhere else does it appear he's intentionally trying to make the girls uncomfortable. The pinnacle of Mineta's hero aspiration is for girls to like him. Beyond being a shallow character, he's very flat. He could be removed from the series, and nothing would change. That's very bad. His character design is unattractive and his power is lame, which I'm sure also factors into it. That being said, I don't think he deserves as much hate as Myne, Shou Tucker, or Griffith, but it's understandable why people don't like him. (I also don't recall Kaminari scaling a wall with his power to attempt to spy on the girls' bath, but I digress!) |
 |
| I don't think Mineta is suppose to be likeable? He's an annoying little creep. |
ロード中です...  |
| He wears a fucking diaper as part of his hero suit. And he utterly fails at his one job, comic-relief. |
My Queens  |
| Probably because he's one of te unfunniest comedic relief characters in all of battle shounen? I mean I don't hate him, but I also don't really see anything appealing or funny about him. He's just kinda there, being slightly annoying and nothing else. |
| I probably regret this post by now. |
| Perverted characters can be great like Muttsulini from Baka and Test for example, but Mineta doesn't do it in a new or creative way which makes it seem forced. He does have a few good moments during the Joint Training arc so I wouldn't say he's a wasted character, but his comedic relief moments are usually not very funny. |
| He is one of those characters, which could not exist in franchise bet all and it will not negatively impact story at all. Literally his only purpose in the series is being a comic relief and he is utterly cringy. |
 |
| OP who are you talking about? Not everyone is as weeb as you. |
madscientist0001 said: Most of the characters in MHA are generic and Mineta is the worst one. He is useless and annoying. His pervert jokes aren't funny. generic and cringy, specially the main character |
