Has anyone else noticed this?

It seems to me that the really cute, adorable "I wanna give them a hug" kind of characters are actually very widely hated

ChibiUsa! "The pink spore wants to have sex with her daddy/is into bestiality/is SOOO MEEN to Usagi/has pink hair/is CUTE/is a little girl/EXISTS!". Granted, her anime self could be a little bit of a brat in SuperS, but Usagi was just as bad. :P

I've also seen Nils written as an annoying brat in some Fire Emblem fics. --;

Anime!Chibi-Usa IS very annoying, IMHO. But then again, so are many kids in RL. And the horrors done to her in fandom are SO terrible that I can't help but being sorry for her.

Kumi from Captain Tsubasa, the "Twerps" from Pokémon, Ascot from Rayearth, the Li cousins from CCS, Popp from Ojamajo Doremi, Shiro from Mazinger Z, Genki from Getter Robo, Jun from Ronin Warriors, Makoto and CIA from Saint Seiya, Hikaru from KOR, and lots of other anime children/pre-teens/kids- younger-in-comparation-to-others also get kicked by fans. Meh.

Surely you jest. Ascot. No, not Ascot. He's so cute. Why him?

I knew all about Jun/Ulie (sp) bashing, though. OMGHEDOESNOTHAVEARMOR. HE MUST DIE.

I'm not.

Several people hate him because, in the anime, the monsters he summoned killed Presea. And they can't see beyond thhat... when in fact he joined Zagato because he wanted people to respect the monsters he summoned, was a very lonely person until Caldina and later Umi befriended him, and in the manga he actually learns other spells to stop summoning and not put his friends in danger anymore.

Geez.

I am such an Ascot fangirl. It's almost sad. But he's just so... so... CUTE. I wanna squeeze him. Squeeeeze. :3

I'm with you. And older Ascot is cool, too.

I found it very cute and heartwarming that Ascot grew up for Umi. :D Especially with how much he cared for her.
