  I would’ve disagreed with you but then I remembered the end and…
  Yeah
- SEENABEAN 4y
  I don't think he himself was poorly written. I just think everything around him was terrible so it made the whole ending terrible. Specifically the whole tone of the series toward him. That was just poor decision making on Isayama's part.

  I agree with you. Eren is a terrible written character in the end.
- 02Val02 3y
  In the first few arcs yeah, other than that it's probably one of the best.
  a crime, really.
WhiteDevilNanoha 4y
I only have one person for that spot and only one, no contenders

https://anilist.co/character/497/Artoria-Pendragon
- Aspect 4y
  explain?
  WhiteDevilNanoha 4y
  Glorified tiger paper. Pushed as a major badass, but is figuratively and literally the series' local jobber. A knight who should be used to this ends up acting like a child once she gets inconvenience like she did in the middle of her own route. Not to mention treated as a joke by most of the characters and was legit only thought of as a sex object by one of the final antagonists, hard to find her credible honestly. Strong female character, she isn't.
  ZzKolin 4y
  The idea was to make her hateable or to at least make you question about her, as a character, one who is objectively speaking shallow her only trait being her status as a knight and a king.This is furthermost evidenced in the Kings Banquet in Zero and throught more discussions and analyses.So to conclude your hate for Saber is what was intented altough maybe not to such an extent.(btw this is viable for all the fate cast members)
  WhiteDevilNanoha 4y
  There is "You hate her cause she is a good character who flaws actually work within the setting" and "You hate her cause she contrasts greatly with her environment". Her status as a knight and king is regularly mocked. Iskandar and Gil essentially roasted her, Shirou didn't even acknowledge as more than just a woman in her own route, and her own knights were baffled at her such a person could be in a position despite their loyalty. I would have liked it if she actually shone through her flaws instead of proving other characters' points about her immaturity and uselessness.
- Tsun 4y
  I didn't think hating saber was even possible!
  WhiteDevilNanoha 4y
  I mean I dislike most of FSN's cast tbh.
  PurgatoryOnigiri 4y
  Only good characters were Gilgamesh and lancer
  MaicolThePigeon 4y
  Fate (anime) doesn't has good characters besides Kiritsugu
  WhiteDevilNanoha 4y
  Eh, Kiritsugu isn't a character I'd say is great either. I liked Sasaki and Medea, but that was about it.

  Hated that anime with a passion
  ZNote 4y
  Boat is best character
  Pete 4y
  rightfully so. it's not the worst thing I've seen but it's still a terrible show
  ZNote 4y
  As sad as this may be to say...the VN is better XD
- Hentaro 4y
  We all know the Nice Boat was the best character
- Lovethyenemies 4y
  Honestly I liked School Days' approach to the reprucutions of a IRL harem but the MC had me yelling at the TV the entire time. Also, they're highschoolers so immaturity and annoyance are to be expected.

Absolute garbage in s2, kinda cool in Sinners 1, okay in s3. And the positive change wasn't any form of development, it was a different team of writers.

  everyone listed here was like, okay. imo. i mean i do like hawkeye but the focus wasnt on her too much so she's not fully developed. winry is ass cant even lie about that
  
  idk monster
  
  k-kon is like them all playing idk it doesnt really get into them? theyre fine
  
  akane was pretty good but i mean tbh. just because shes a good one doesnt mean a lot are

  k-on has best characters imo
  I stared at this post for too long, I had to say it

  what about the female cast of monogatari
  boylettuce 4y
  i dont know the monogatari series
- KomiiHMT 3y
  Don't mind me, I just gotta let this out...
  
  Rukia was so badass when they first introduced her then idk what happened for the rest of the show. Freakin Orihime had such interesting abilities (like the little fairies can literally reject reality) so why does she need to be saved 80% of the time. Don't even get me started on the Reborn girls. I wanna frkin cry everytime they're on screen. I'll skip Sakura since she's literally the icon of this trope. Why tf are they always getting Lucy naked?
  boylettuce 3y
  exactly lmao
Spauw 4y
sakura, yamsha
- NurAhmad 4y
  Why it's always them lol
  (In my country, Sakura being burden/useless is pretty much common joke)
  Spauw 4y
  yh but let's say naruto's writer didn't add sakura? Nothing in the story would've changed
  NurAhmad 4y
  Sakura actually helped a lot. For example:
  
  If she didn't helped Naruto and Sasuke During fight againts Kaguya, Naruto and Sasuke won't be able to sealed her
  
  Spauw 4y
  again same point even there, if there was no sakura then it would've been someone else or only naruto and sasuke
  MetaStag 4y
  I've been into this rabbit hole. Sakura, as a main character who got so much screentime, barely did anything compared to the rest of the main characters (both good and bad). Just for example,
  Just consider the fact that she was too scared to stab Obito in the eye, the literal enemy general in the middle of a war. Pretty sure literally anyone else would've done it in a flash, and Madara would never get the Rin-ne-gone

  Do you think he's actually poorly written or do you just hate him as a person?

  Yeah I thought about this specific thing before posting. I don't like him and I think he is poorly written.
  @setok this also answers you kinda.
  SEENABEAN 4y
  You trippin. How on earth is he poorly written?
  Weeble 4y
  i want what you're smoking. he's a character with actual complexity believe it or not

  i dont like him too but his character is very well written imo

NurAhmad 4y
I'm honest here. I'm going with Johan Liebert from Monster. Everyone around me hyped him as the greatest anime Villain, But I've seen him and I don't find anything interesting about him. The Main reason why I dropped monster anime. (For me, Villains like Izaya Orihara (Durarara), Gilgamesh (Fate) and Char Aznable (Gundam) are much better than Johan)
- HibikeEuphonium 4y
  Char is king.
- Barusu 4y
  People seem to like Johan because he's scary, and like a force of nature that Tenma has to overcome. But I agree, he's kind of forgettable and doesn't actually do that much anyways. Like, he hardly even shows up in the series and when he does, what he ends up doing isn't particularly impressive? The characters that have met him hype him up to an incredible degree, and his actions just don't live up to it. At least, in my opinion.
- burningcherry 4y
  There was a moment when Johan was called not a "monster" but a "devil": "You must not… look at the devil… You must not play a part in the devil's plans." – for a moment, those lines made him deeply terrifying: you cannot fight, you can only look away so that he has no power.

  @Godsen Which Code Geass characters would not be included here?
  Weeble 4y
  I'd say Kallen, Lulu and a little bit of Orange boy. also whoever Suzaku's girlfriend was whom i can't remember the name of, her character remained decent cause she was killed off fairly early
  StardustNobody 4y
  Personally its Lelouch and Suzaku who are the standouts for me. C.C. and some others have their moments, but think those 2 are probably the only ones I'd put in a "phenomenal" standing. Despite Suzaku's level of annoyance, I think he serves a pretty good purpose and is a good equalizer and opposition to Lelouch
