I was just perusing some YouTube reviewers and scrolling through the comments for no real reason... but the Obito hate is over 9000.
Hundreds of people saying he's one of the worst characters ever created, they're glad he's dead, pedophile over Rin, Kishi should have killed him earlier, he doesn't deserve Naruto's forgiveness, Madara should have murdered him... it's a little much. I feel it's even worse than his Juubi jinchuriki days during my lurker time here when every other thread was about how much Obito sucked.
Point being, why didn't more people like Obito? Was his past not sad enough? Were his motives not good enough? Was he not threatening enough as a villain or redeemed enough as an ally? Was he not relatable in all of his misery? I'm not an Obito fanboy, but I thought he played his part well. I'm actually really confused.
