Hoo boy, the Barnaby hate in the Tiger & Bunny fandom. It's like Shinji Ikari all over again.
Jeez, people, give the kid a break. Yes, he's a dick, but it's not as if his personality flaws aren't understandable. He's been treated like a pampered pet and groomed for stardom all his life - so, while he might be superficially charismatic and a consummate performer, he can also be surprisingly childish, and his people skills suck. Throw in his other considerable issues, and you've got a hot mess with fabulous hair.
God, if nothing else, look how cute he was in a Santa hat:
How can you hate that? You monsters.
Also, the vitriol directed at Kaede weirds me the fuck out. She's a 10 year old girl! Who lost her mother at a young age! And her flaky Dad always breaks his promises and hardly sees her! Clearly in some people's eyes that makes her a NASTY BRAT BITCH WHORE but god man I don't even know.
I get the impression that people underestimate just how badly losing a parent (or two) as a child can mess you up.
