Riker had, like, 2 good episodes. Other than that his job was to repeat what Picard said for the american fans who didn't want to root for a frenchman. He was a sidekick and little more. he wasn't a bad side kick, but he wasn't especially stand out either.

And Kira had, basically 3 epidosed types:

"I was a terrorist and now I'm struggling to deal with that" which were generally pretty great, I grant you.

"My stupid religion is making me do a stupid thing, but I'm going to stick with it no matter how obviously stupid it is" which I didn't like but at least it was consistent with her extremist character.

and the "I'm in love see how terrible I cant really be!" episodes. I hated those.

...

Oh and the "Look at me, playing a sexpot from another dimension even though I don't quite know what sexy is" episodes. I don't count them because they're not REALLY Kira, but they didn't make me like her any better.

judging characters primarily by their highlight episodes is just plain wrong IMO

No, I'm taking them as a whole. Kira was about even split between "Terrible / Meh / Great"

Riker was mostly Meh, with a couple of high points, and a lot of weird / off putting acting spliced in (He didn't learn to smile without looking alien for the first 4 seasons).

So far, 2 seasons in, Chakotey is Mostly Meh, with some notable high points (Belting that Marquis who was giving Tuvok a hard time. Resquing that alien kid and letting him earn his nae) and no cringey weirdness. Puts him, on balance, ahead of Riker and Kira.

Just wait. At least both Riker and Kira get characterization and lots of great moments later on. Chatokay basically remains flat throughout and is never really given much to do past season 3.
