Wow. And what exactly are the wrong reasons?

[(Anonymous)]

I guess obviously overidentifying with them and then excusing the character's behaviour (antisemitism, being a "nice" guy, disregard for human dignity and life etc.).
Still not my best moments, I admit.

[kaatsu.livejournal.com]

Gotta say, Eridan didn't exactly come off as a Nice Guy to me. He never insulted anyone who turned him down (no "that bitch" "how dare she" etc), he genuinely liked the people he was in relationships with, he never lied or got passive aggressive or manipulative. He just got mopey and clingy and uncertain when broken up with, which is a sin that most people are guilty of.

I mean, he was a bit of a shithead, but in a universe that contains Vriska, he didn't really rate that high on the shitheadometer.

[oflittlebrain.livejournal.com]

i agree that he didn't exactly portray those tendencies in canon. however, people tend to defend him in Nice Guy ways-- blaming feferi for his actions because how dare she reject him, etc.

[kaatsu.livejournal.com]

Ah, that makes sense. I haven't seen any of that sort of thing, and I'm glad to have avoided it.

[insanenoodlyguy.livejournal.com]

You missed some interesting, questionably troll secrets then back in the day.

[insanenoodlyguy.livejournal.com]

At least not until he committed GENOCIDE.

Vriska wasn't trying to muder her entire race. He was and did.

I think Eridan is at the top of the shithead echeladder: Worldhungerfixingfertilizerdome

[kaatsu.livejournal.com]

Everyone has their own shithead ladder! In my eyes, Eridan went wrong because he'd fucked himself into a corner, but Vriska was pretty much deliberately cruel and manipulative the whole comic through, which is much worse to me. This is just a personal view, though!

[insanenoodlyguy.livejournal.com]

I guess it depends on measuring actions vs intentions.

[childings.livejournal.com]

There's a good reason to like Eric Cartman?

[havemy-heart.livejournal.com]

Probably not, but I was going off of what the OP said, especially since Cartman was only one example. I don't even know the other two.

[insanenoodlyguy.livejournal.com]

I suspect the mayuri is the one from bleach, and Eridan (and kanaya) from homestuck.

A sociopathic scientist, an alien nazi hipster and an alien reverse vampire respectively.

[sarolynne.livejournal.com]

Normally I'd say something about people liking characters as characters who they wouldn't like as people, liking what they add to the plot, etc... but idk, Cartman? It's hard to think of anything.

[visp.livejournal.com]

He's hilarious. He's hilarious because he's so over-the-top evil and wrong and sociopathic and weird you just can't help but laugh. And then laugh some more when he gets his comeuppance.

[angelus7988.livejournal.com]

I don't know. Sometimes what makes his antics funny is their success. I refer you to the Scott Tannerman incident.

[visp.livejournal.com]

"Oh, your tears are so yummy and sweet!"

... yeah. That's just Cartman for you.
