That's the problem; at best they liked him which might have been good enough if not for the fact that Keima is one of the best protagonist ever written for a manga. And I don't think anyone can claim that Hiro Shimono has given a performance that truly shows how awesome Keima is. I think most would have imagined him as a Lelouch or Light instead of a Akihisa before the anime aired, so there's definitely a miscast here.
