Why is Houka Inumuta so disliked? Is it because his character portrayal seemed awkward and unrealistic? I kinda understand that maybe it's weird that a hacker person doesn't really fight like the others do and instead works on analyzing and collecting data. And maybe it just seemed unrealistic how he would just press buttons on the keyboards of his suit and somehow that would help him understand Ryuko better. And he's also the least loyal elite four member. And tbh in the subbed version I thought his voice didn't quite capture the emotion/subtly his lines were meant to convey. 

But like...why? He's sharp, logical, and very central to the strategies and "intelligence" parts of the story. I think it's kinda funny how Houka and Nonon are both sassy, but Nonon is much more liked.

Maybe I'm just salty cuz, when I watched the anime, he was the one I related to most cuz he's nerdy, detached and analytic. Hahahhaha
