Characters you dislike in media you like.

[philstar22]

Who are some characters you dislike in media you like. Or media you used to like.


For me, it would include Ted Mosby, Xander Harris, and Severus Snape. There are two that completely ruined media I used to like: Will Hallstead and Booth from Bones.

Weasley twins. They seem cool, I mean they gave Harry the map, but they annoy me to no end, especially in fics.

Marry Watson because I never like killers. I dislike even thief characters, so she had no chance.

Re: Characters you dislike in media you like.

[philstar22]

I don't hate the Weasley twins but I never adored them the way most of the fandom seemed to. I don't find pranks funny, and some of theirs could really have hurt someone.

Re: Characters you dislike in media you like.

[kaijinscendre]

Tony Stark. I mostly just dislike is overwhelming presence in movies, I don't mind him in fanfiction.

But I don't dislike him as much as I hate Darcy.

Re: Characters you dislike in media you like.

[philstar22]

Ugh, Darcy. Forgot about her. And agreed on Tony. I debated whether to put him on my list, but I don't actually hate him when he's done right. I just hate that he took over the MCU even when other characters were supposed to be in the spotlight. And I hated how the Avengers movies ended up being Tony+friends by the end rather than a true ensemble.

I don't mind Darcy in the movies - "quirky" gets old fast, but she doesn't take up all that much screen time, so it's fine by me... but holy FUCK she is INESCAPABLE in fanfic! I am *this* close to blacklisting the word "darcy" on AO3 just so I can avoid all the "collections" of fics where every fucking dude in the goddamn multiverse gets it on with Darcy-bloody-Lewis!

Re: Characters you dislike in media you like.

[(Anonymous)]

+1 to both of these for sure!

I like your thinking, OP. It seems like you have no patience for butthurt, insecure, self-righteous, and patronizing "nice guys." I feel very much the same.

My own personal number one is Ross Gellar. God, fuck him.

Re: Characters you dislike in media you like.

[(Anonymous)]

I still remember an old TV Guide I found when I was like seven. They made a list of 'the most annoying characters in TV history' or something. I didn't recognize a lot of the listed, but the writers made a huge point that 'of course, the number one spot goes to who else by Ross Gellar.'

This was most certainly (I think) published during the shows air... so, yeah. Ross has been the worst for a long time now...

Katara. Asami. Claudia from The Dragon Prince (I used to dislike Soren too, but the latest season changed my mind).

An unfortunate pattern emerges!

Re: Characters you dislike in media you like.

[(Anonymous)]

Katara is starting to get on my nerves but that's only because of her portrayal in fics, I don't mind her in the series.

Re: Characters you dislike in media you like.

[(Anonymous)]

Katara is the worst. She's so overpowered- to the point she can take Crazed Azula down in a single move, despite not even being able to follow simple instructions from the scroll she literally stole from the pirates, even when Aang was trying to teach her... And what? after three seconds of watching the bloodbender work her magic, she can immediately imitate a move this one single waterbender learned/created herself thoughout years of practivce in captivitly? I think not.
I won't even get into her horribly racist personality like... yeesh. I've seen people rightfully knock Sokka for his sexism, but he get's over that very quickly. Even by the end of the series she hates pretty much all Firebenders, but of course that's a-okay!

Re: Characters you dislike in media you like.

Billy on Stranger Things. I did like how he got used in Season 3, but I won't be sad to see him go.

Re: Characters you dislike in media you like.

[(Anonymous)]

Hard second

Re: Characters you dislike in media you like.

[rosehiptea]

This.

Re: Characters you dislike in media you like.

[(Anonymous)]

I liked his character-- as "problematic" as he was-- because he brought conflict to the story. It's just fiction; I didn't get worked up as everyone else did because they thought he was a racist f*ckhead.

Re: Characters you dislike in media you like.

Ignis stans have completely ruined Ignis for me, which sucks.

Also I seem to be the only person in the entirety of the FFXIV fandom that is completely ambivalent to Estinien? I don't dislike him, but I seriously don't understand the huge amount of love for him, and I don't really ship him with Aymeric, so I have no idea what I'm missing.

Re: Characters you dislike in media you like.

stiles on teen wolf. he was an insufferable asshole but i was supposed to think he was 'funny' when he insulted everyone around him constantly.

sabrina on the chilling adventures of sabrina. which i gave up on because i found her so annoyingly stupid and selfish. all the other characters are so much more interesting than her tbh.

tony stark in collaborative movies, i like him in his solo ones because he gets the room he needs to actually work as a character. he's too much of the focus, but without the same room to make him likeable, in avengers movies and it's annoying.

keith on voltron. he was a boring jerk, got everything handed to him on a silver platter without trying, but was the show's golden boy so i had to put up with it metaphorically sucking his dick the entire time.

lance on voltron was also annoying, but at least he got a little better. a little.

Re: Characters you dislike in media you like.

[(Anonymous)]

Oh god, Booth. He had the potential to be a good character, but it all went downhill so fast.

Steven Universe is easily the worst character in Steven Universe.

Re: Characters you dislike in media you like.

[philstar22]

Booth could have been good if he ever compromised or learned something and grew. But no, the show made him always right even when he wasn't. Brennan had to change who she was to get together with Booth, but he didn't have to make any sort of similar sacrifice. I shipped them in the beginning too. But ugh, I can't even rewatch the earlier seasons. Just seeing an episode of Bones makes me angry now.

Re: Characters you dislike in media you like.

[rosehiptea]

Simon on In the Flesh. I felt like everybody loved him because he was in a canon gay pairing and I just did not like him. Even his sad backstory didn't make me feel all that bad for him.

Aunt Lydia on Handmaid's Tale. You're supposed to hate her but even when they tried to give her a backstory where she wasn't as bad (yet) I found it completely cringey.

Vicious on Cowboy Bebop. Usually I'm into bad guy characters in that type of media but he just seemed like such an asshole.

I stopped as soon as I realized I have over a thousand;;

[(Anonymous)]

Yukari from Persona 3. She is such a self-centred bitch, I cannot stand her.

Sam. Uncharted 4. Would be first, but I'm not about to put that rat first any where! /being irrational (probably) I'm trying to replay the game right now, but every scene with him gets worse and worse, and I'm not sure I can stand going through the whole game again, even with all the filters.

Max, Black Sails. Just no.

Franklin, GTA V, calling your girlfriend in the middle of a strip club begging her to get back with you after she's moved on to a bigger and better life in not acceptable.

Ryou Bakura, from Yu-Gi-Oh. He either doesn't have a personality/too weak will to be relevant or willing lets a vengeful spirt try to kill his friends on a regular basis, both of which are a no go for me. (also the love he get's from the fandom get's annoying)

Anders, Dragon Age 2. Terrorists are bad.

Eames, Inception. So annoying, and also I hate Tom Hardy...

Re: Characters you dislike in media you like.

[(Anonymous)]

Tyler on ST:Disco. I sort of lost sympathy for him after they flip flopped on his rape trauma, and he became the endlessly promoted plot device.

Re: Characters you dislike in media you like.

[(Anonymous)]

As much as I loved Uncharted 4 (and the whole Uncharted series for the most part) I hate Rafe Adler with a passion. Yes, he's the villain and is supposed to be unlikable, but I hate him oh so much.
