Why does fandom seem to hate Suzaku?
I have been nosing through the fandom for some time and I couldn't help but notice the rampant Suzaku hatred. So, I decided to find out why this seemed to be the case.
'Hypocrite' seemed to be the biggest complaint, but (and yes, I am a Lulu fangirl as well before you kill me) Lelouch is one, too. So I was wondering just what made Suzaku seem to be such a target of ire.

I'm just interested to see what dynamics make people like or dislike certain characters in this series.

Like they've never been a hypocrite a single day in their lives or not screwed up themselves. ._.Mainly the complain is that Suzaku's viewpoint is too narrow, and his thinking too naive, simply because he believes that he can change the system from within. But these people can actually find new reasons to hate him with every single episode. One hand, they're saying that URGH he thinks he's Kira Yamato, lookit him struggle as he protect the people mwahaha sucker. And on the other hand, after another episode, they say WTF he just went in and didn't give a damn whether he'd kill these people whatta heartless Eleven. >_>";;;
Other people complain about him being too KIRAYAMATO godly. I have no opinions on that because frankly, I do dislike a certain character for being too perfect as well. X)

It just seems people need to justify their hatred for him and other characters, I dunno why personally.
The recap ep was really what spurred me to ask this as people went crazy on some boards about it being so Suzaku-centric but I found it nice.
