Character 'hate' debate

[ayooz.livejournal.com]

Apologies if this sort of post has already been mentioned. But I'm really curious with why people hate dislike certain characters from Code Geass.

Personally I really don't like Shirley. I could pull out the generic character card, but there are a lot of characters that can apply to this (I'm looking at you, Euphemia/Lacus clone). But to be realistic, not EVERY single character in Code Geass is going to be original. Hell, some say Lelouch is a Light rip-off. I would hate her less if she wasn't set up to be a romantic possibility for Lelouch. But I just don't like her personality type. Though, to be superficial, what the character looks like is also a factor ^^; For example, I actually don't think Euphemia is all that bad.

Basically, state the character that you hate/dislike and explain your reasoning. I'm interested in those who aren't fond of Suzaku (I'm sort of surprised why some do). It can be anything as long as it isn't incoherent character bashing.

[Edit: Dislike is a better way to put it. Doesn't mean you can't hate either xD]

i like your... explanation? of suzaku's character. it gives me a deeper look at his character, cus with my lulu bias i'd probably not bother to think FOR suzaku that much. tho it's not like i think FOR lulu that much xD im on his side simply cus he's... voiced by junjun >.> *gets smacked*

anyway... hope sunrise will try to show more of suzaku's delicacy in the future anime... not just leaving it all to the other media (manga, drama, novel... who the hell are gonna read/listen to all those -_- not a die-hard fan) or maybe they did show his delicacy but i just didnt care enough to pic them up and think through them =/

but what, it's deemed to be a sad story >< im thinking just hoping all of them would have a happy end would be too much of a wish...

XD; Sadly, I think about Suzaku's side of things the most. I didn't like him much in the beginning when he really started to fall into the 'FOR RIGHTEOUS JUSTICE' role, but when I found out he killed his father I had to stop, go back, and look at him again from the start with a different view. There's actually a lot revealed about him and it all matches up.

Yeah, there won't be a Happily Ever After for anyone, I think. The series sets you up with these notions of black and white, but they blend throughout. There's a lot of emphasis placed on the good and evil that exist within humans. To have an ending where good triumphs would completely undermine everything so far.
