173, Not!Secret 6, too big 3
N!S 6) YOU'RE WRONG. SO WRONG. Angel? Is a three-dimensional character. His creepiness is shown to be a BAD thing. He's a dork, and can be an enormous dick sometimes. But the important thing is that his dickishness gets him actual consequences. When he flies off the rails and does something out of line, his friends get PISSED AT HIM. It's 100% clear that Whedon did not intend for Angel to be ZOMG TEH PERFECT MAN!!!1, but rather a flawed person trying to offset some of the sins of his past.
What's more, Angel actually DID distance himself from his OTL when he realized how doomed their relationship was, and he would never DREAM of making Buffy into a vampire, even if she wanted him to. Because that would be irredeemably selfish of him.
tl;dr: If Edward had been handled the way Angel was handled (i.e not made into a steaming pile of Marty Stu), I probably would have liked him too. But he wasn't. So there.
Too Big 3) Please elaborate on HOW the characterization was inconsistent.
