ITT: Characters you hated at first, but grew on you as the show progressed

Slut.

I didn't like her much in S1 but she was great in S2. She carried the show

I wanted to hate aqua but that ass kept me from it, plus her interactions with Kazuma were some of my favorite parts of Konosuba
Her seiyuu did a great job too

>ever hating a nice girl like Aqua

...

Does the S2 gets better? I dropped it for the CGI horses and because the funny moments weren't funny anymore.

He and...

Kazuma and Aqua moments were hilarious IMO
Megumin had some cute scenes
Yunyun I'm not sure what to think about
Darkness is a waste

All in all 6/10

She.

aqua is alright but like amamiya only good for rough fucking

best boy

...

I honest-to-god couldn't care less about her in the first 8 or so episodes, then by the end of the show I fucking cried at her death scene.

This

I liked him early on but now I just hope he dies fucking horribly and his entire posse perished before his own eyes again.

I still want to have anal sex with Aqua.

fuck off, Griffith

I disliked her back in S1 but in S2 she has been great with all her hard working.

>Implying Griffith would take time out of his day to go to Sup Forums from the tentacle porn on /h/

The first episode of Mob Psycho didn't grab me that much. It took Reigen pretending to be a girl terribly to sell me on this series

This guy.

...

No one mentioned ranta?

His pure determination won me over.

Christmas episode is where I started to like her.

Reigen is suprisingly unlikeable in the manga, like he's much more of a con-artist sociopath.

...

Besides, she triggers NTRtards so that's a pleasant bonus.

...

Aqua was only insufferable for an episode or two, after that she became one of the best things about the show. Konosuba would be terrible without her.

Why did you hate her at first?

Much like the rest of the cast, I found him infuriating but ended up being unable to hate him because he is a good boy just doing his best.

This

He looks like a pile of tin cans and scraps of metal taped together

...

he's a cyborg user

...

Him.

>tfw your heart says Megumin but your dick says Aqua

She's the reason I stopped midway S2. Need more Manager and Sword

I used to dislike her, but then she turned into the best girl in the show AND she won

It's not that Umaru needs to be in a better anime, it's that the anime would be better without her.

Me.

I see why anime only's would hate him, but once he turns from an absolute douchebag to the classic hot-blooded rival his character becomes 5x better.

this guy is so fucking weird

...

Plus, she developed a nice pair of boobs on
shippuden. Can't beat the tits, bro, you just can't.

I hated Donovan at first, but then I realized that he was perfectly justified in what he did to Guts.

...

>ever hating aqua.
She carries the show as much as anyone else.

...

I always liked aqua she's cute.

...

Went from worst character that deserved every single thing she got to one if not best character.

Aqua and Darkness. Megumin is the opposite, liked her a lot at the beginning and got slowly fed up.

...

Sup Forums

This so much

Not really hate, only liked her for the memes but she cheated her way to being best girl.

the smuggiest of all raibus

...

Shut the fuck up, Aqua.

She didn't grow on me at all. I hate personalities like this so much.

I always liked Yuigahara from Oregairu, but I initially thought her "Yahallo!~" thing was annoying.

Then I grew to love it.

This right here. When i first watched episode 1 of Index, she seems like kind of a cunt. Now here i am several years later, having read all the novels and she's my favourite character in the series.

Guts and his JRPG party are terrible, senpai.

...

I liked her from the start

...

How the fuck do you dislike Aqua?
It's clearly stablished that she is a 100% comical character and she shouldn't be taken seriously because she's extremely retarded/incompetent/bad person the very first time she's introduced.

...

I heard that people thought she was too much in the LN after some time (2 and/or 3?). Is she worse in the light novels or are people just weird?

She deserves more hugs

She's the reason i started reading the novels.

She is just an extremely valuable adventurer that keeps getting praise and rubbing it in Trashzuma's face for the sake of bants. She is a really reliable friend who knows when he is actually hurt and is there to help him get over the hard times. The closest interaction to an actual sibling/bro relationship I have seen in a while. Without her the team dynamic would shatter as it would be just Kazuma and the two girls that want his dick.

I was sure I'd hate her throughout, but she ended up being my fav character from the show.

Another common complaint is that Kazuma is not powerful enough and that he is the weakest party member that only achieves things if he cheats or gets lucky. Basically they expect another isekai MC who is extremely powerful, respected, his entire party gasps over how strong he is, and all the women want to fuck him. Aqua being an extremely capable, trash talking woman that is not just a tsun who eventually gobbles up the MCs dick makes them upset.

Yeah I was just wondering if LN Aqua was more of a toxic bitch compared to the anime. I heard she might have but no one went into it very much.

...

I read the LNs recently and I wouldnt say so. She is pretty much the same but gets into even more bants with Kazuma. She jokes around she can cockblock him by telling people of his NEET lifestyle in japan but its just teasing and she lets him try to impress girls as best he can, she knows he keept fapping in the stables every night but just left him to it and doesn't tell anyone about it, etc.

All in all - people expect pic related from the MCs in isekai novels and get upset when they are not some self-insert power fantasy and actually have compelling personalities. Actual page from chapter 16.5 of the SAO source material.

Most of it was just okay but when they left the starting town it was better than it ever was in S1

...

What said. The whole ark with them leaving on an adventure outside the starter town was great. It was really well paced and felt like a movie. The animation for the final fight in particular was the best the series has had so far.

>mgs4 comes around
RAAAAAAAIDEEN, YOU HAVE SO MUCH TO LIVE FOR!

>hate her in the first couple of episodes
>eternal waifu from episode 3 onward

I picked up KonoSuba for Aqua, the gif of her puking after the montage convinced me.

Aqua and Kazuma are the most well-written characters in the show. Megumin will pick up a bit if we get another season and volume 5 gets adapted.

Unfortunately Darkness never picks up and remains the same character with little to no development other than being continuously insulted and kicked to the side.The only development is that she seems to actually like this treatment less and less.

I barely finished S1 because of her cancer existence.

I hate smug in general

There's something about her that just works for me, even though I hated how much of a Mary Sue she was.

I hated her more than Chitoge at first. At the end she was my second favourite.

No, Aqua isn't well-written. Her character works in a comedy setting, but she's never expanded upon.
The author makes it clear that she can't grow very early in the story, so he never bothers exploring her character outside of a few short moments.

mfw this happens

is MGR the best anime ever created?

user, i...

No, that's Asura's Wrath.

Lalatina turned out to be the least interesting in adaptation. Novels give her a sizable amount of attention and funny gags.

I loved her at first sight though.

I like his voice.
