I might have agreed with you before I came across Levi from SnK. I know I'm not alone on that. Levi physically abuses and yells at a young girl, and people blame the girl saying she deserved it. Because Levi is so popular he's got more apologist and he gets away with it. It makes a lot of people uncomfortable. So in this case fandom ruins a character through it's apologists and how overwhelming the support for him doing bad things is.

Don't understand why people would hate Makoto b/c of fanbase because he is a genuinely kind person. His character might not appeal to everyone, but he hasn't done anything deserving of hate.

You assume that everyone hates characters because the character does something that might be considered "morally bad" by someone.

I hate characters because they're boring or shittily written characters.

Levi physically abuses and yells at a young girl

What? When? Was it a recent chapter? I'm not in the fandom anymore, but there was no mention of anything like that, so I'm assuming it's new. And Levi was already popular back when I was in the fandom. So if this indeed happened, he's probably excused because he was popular already. And/or if he beat the girl for similar reasons as to when he beat Eren during the trial (which was the big controversy about him that I remember), because context is very important.

I'm a little bit confused by your comparison because that sounds like an instance in which the character was disliked or neutral before the fandom response. I'm talking (and I believe OP is talking) about an already-liked character.

uhhh do you mean that time Levi spoke sharply and... I can't remember, did he slap? one of HIS SOLDIERS? Seriously? Physically abuse?

It's one thing to say his actions were wrong. But to call Historia a "young girl" (and take away her work as a soldier, and lower her to something of a child) is pretty horrible. And my god, if you tell me we're not allowed to even yell at some of these characters...

Oh, AYRT is talking about Historia? No wonder I had no idea what they meant.
