And that's a large part of the problem. PerfectGaryStu!Aya gets really damn old really damn fast. There are only so many times you can watch him reading Walt Whitman, making amazing omelets and being lusted after by an entire club's worth of horny gay males, in between sweeping Ken Hidaka off his feet, before it starts to get extremely irritating. Doubly so if everything he says is treated as an Amazing Revelation of Profound Truth that leaves his teammates awed or shamed or both.

Canon Aya doesn't bother me at all, but fanon Aya I could quite happily strangle. He's too damn IRRITATING for words.
