Just as mentioned in the topic. Can you dislike an anime even when you find your favourite character in it?

The reason why you dislike it is not matter: bad storyline, bad seiyuu, crappy music, unbearable jokes....etc... as long as it's not because of the unsatisfying ending or the crappy anime adaptation from manga/ movie/ novels.....

After careful thought i only can list out:
-Reika
in Goshuushou-sama Ninomiya-kun (mainly because i like the character design)

-Fate Testarossa & Nanoha Takamachi
in all 3 seasons of Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha (why these 2 always together, even in my mind :/)

-Asuka Langley Soryu
in Neon Genesis Evangelion (no flame pls)

I plan to list out the cast of Hayate no Gotoku also, but then I never like any of them until i read the manga.

I wouldn't say that I actively dislike Zegapain, but it's pretty mediocre and not something I'd really recommend to people. It does have my all time favorite character in it, though. Ryoko Kaminagi. So adorable. "Kyourrrr-chan!"

Subaru Nakajima from Nanoha Strikers. Strikers in general was a huge disappointment to me and episode by episode it was getting worse and worse. The only that good came out of Strikers for me was Subaru. I found her to be very likable character and cute in general. The other reason is because she is freaking GaoGaiGar-Tan

My personal "I love the character but I hate the show" winner would be...

Tohsaka Rin of Fate/Stay Night

I thought the show, apart from some fights here and there, was totally and utterly garbage. Really, if F/Sn wasn't as bad as I thought it to be, then Tohsaka would be up there in my moe metre with the likes of Hinagiku. But no, even the shows crappiness even creeped up on her.

For example, I distinctly remember in one episode she was all for helping Shirou, then next, she was dead-set on killing him, and immediately after, she was all for helping him again. As a poster once said, "Tsundere indeed

"

On one hand, you find my favorite mecha show of this decade as merely mediocre. But on the other, your favourite character of all time IS my favourite character so far of this decade...

I absolutely detest Yakitate! Japan but I still like the character of Monica. I think this is because she didn't have much interaction with Kawaichi(If I spelt it wrong well his name doesn't deserve to be spelt properly).

yezhanquan · 2008-05-22, 02:34

Well, I dont have too much respect for Burst Angel, but I guess I like Sei. If only her fashion sense was better....

Oppius · 2008-05-22, 03:22

The French girl in fourth episode of Ouran High School Host Club. She is the only girl who did not show her interest on Tamaki besides Haruhi herself.

Renge hits on Haruhi. Of course, I guess that's ok with you.

Spectacular_Insanity · 2008-05-22, 12:08

Well, my answer here is simple. I hate very few anime, but one where I liked the character but hated the show is...

Kyon (The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya)

Couldn't stand Haruhi, whom the show was about, but I liked Kyon's entertaining narrrations.

Reckoner · 2008-05-22, 23:56

Tomoyo Sakagami from Clannad.

I couldn't stand the show, but she and a couple others helped me hold onto the show till its end. However I will not dare tread on the AS being animated.

GuidoHunter_Toki · 2008-05-23, 19:35

I've always liked Kakashi and Zabuza, but have always hated Naruto the show in general. I've always thought the first 20 so episodes of Naruto were done pretty well, but the show progressively got worse for me.

Shana (Shakugun no Shana) - I really like Shana as a character but unfortunately I slowly got bored of watching this show. I tried to like it but I didn't even make it through the first season until I dropped it.

King Lycan · 2008-05-23, 21:36

Ulquiorra- He is the only reason i'm still reading Bleach manga if he dies then i stop

mcruz1014 · 2008-05-23, 22:53

Hmm... the twins, Shuri and Shuusuke, from Myself;Yourself. Their short arc in the show was the only real bright spot in an other wise totally mediocre production. Well, for me anyway. I know some people that hated it completely.

Honoka from Suzuka was the only character that didn't angst every second of every minute.

Spoiler for Suzuka:
