Characters that you Hate or don't like

and maybe it isn't because you hate the character itself, but perhaps the idea or concept or cliches of those said characters.

I'll start.

Female Thor - Yes, I know, comic book character but still. outside of the writing being very bad in this series, what really kills me is the promotion. they promote her as Thor is a woman, but the fact of the matter is that regular thor is still there and he has lost his powers which were given to a woman....that isn't "female thor" that is "female with thor's powers"

Ramona Badwolf (Ever After High) - the very concept of Ramona enrages me. Okay so we have Cerise Hood, daughter of Red Riding Hood and the Big Bad Wolf. she is a very distant woman whom hides under her hood, afraid to be found out as a freak that shouldn't even exist. Everything that we have seen of her has heavily hinted at that she is an only child, that she is one of a kind (2 episodes focuses heavily on her family and a book that focused heavily on her home life.)
her first scene appearance did zilch, she literally stood around doing nothing - could have had the whole scene without her.

Hmm tough question. I can think of plenty of characters whose concept I like but dislike their execution but not the other way around.

I guess Bania from Seinfeld fits both bills? I personally never found him funny, just annoying and cringeworthy.

While I don't dislike the concept of his character I must say that Chase was my least favorite member of House's team.

I didn't dislike Mona Lisa. Although I'd have preferred her to have always been an animal instead of a human pre-mutation. That makes her whole interest in Raphael a bit creepy. I'm not disappointed she was only in one episode, anyway. I've never cared much about the Turtles having love interests.

I guess he doesn't qualify as African American to cubed because he doesn't say things like "yessa massa", "sup dawg", "yo", "kill whitey" and "shee-it negro!"

I really don't like Black Widow in the Marvel movies. She was the only major flaw of Winter Soldier for me, her and her dumb jokes.

I didn't really dislike the original one, mostly just her fans. I'm more put off by the new one.

Second this.


Harry Potter. Such a boring twat. Frankly, almost every character in each book is unbearably obnoxious.

Han Solo. Annoying with his bad boy routine. Indy is better.

Darth Vader. So silly with his helmet and asthmatic voice.

Kamala Khan: Her Inhuman connection is barely touched upon, and on top of that she's a fanboy hero, and that type never works. You want to live vicariously through these heroes, but you don't want these heroes pointing out all the cliches and trappings of their world in a meta sense as it shatters the illusion.

Don't get me wrong, it's a nice education on muslim culture, and her home life is pretty interesting, and I like a lot of her supporting cast, but she let her best friend hook up with someone else because she was too selfish about her own superheroics, making me feel sorry for the current girlfriend because Bruno is clearly only settling for her. Kamala's all pouty about it now and she's the one to blame for it.

Batgirl of Burnside: Started off as a fan, but as the title advanced, it became too obvious it was catering to hipster tumblrities. Babs acts nothing like she used to, she acts like a repressed teenager in a twenty-something body. Once upon a time, she was the one who acted more maturely than Dick, and now I feel Dick is way more mature than her.

LOL @ people disliking Han Solo or Darth Vader just because they're popular character. In fact those two characters also largely popularized their character tropes for all of fiction since they debuted in the 70's long before everything else was written.

I don't hate Han Solo because he is popular. I don't like his character.

I don't mind Vader. I really don't like Solo.

He can be annoying sometimes (like when he asks for panties every two minutes) but I like his design, fighting style and Devil Fruit. (Yes, I'm already up to Thriller Bark in the manga. .-.)

Libby from Star Darlings the cartoon - the cartoon portrays her as a hyperactive boy-crazed always talking pinkie pie, while the book itself portrays herself more like rarity whom is generous to a fault, and she finds her talkative friend on the verge of annoyance.
