Personally, I don't hate any
fictional characters in any series (yea, people need to settle down). But, I might, have a theory on why people hate Sasuke so much. Compare him for example to Orochimaru. Classic bad guy, but doesn't have no where near the same level of hated as Sasuke. Reason? Could be that a lot of people here know a Sasuke like character in their lives. You know the type...self centered, brooding, emo'ish, and too cool for school mentality. He simply embodies what most people have grown to hate; lashed out against maybe out of jealousy (HE GETS ALL THE GIRLS, BUT HE'S SO UNGRATEFUL), or because of personal bad experiences with someone who displayed one of the "Sasuke" traits.
And what of Orochimaru? Hell, he's such a zany, over the top bad guy (in a good way), that most admire his whimsical evilness, while Sasuke..he just seems to real.
If you don't agree well:
