Oh I love threads like these. I actually like most of the characters, even the ones we aren't supposed to like.
I ain't that fond of Fudge, Greyback, Snape, Lucius Malfoy and Luna though. Well I guess the little we see of her I like, but I don't love her like many do ... to be honest, I just don't see what the big deal/fuss about her is. I think I'd like her more if she was actually fleshed out and developed a bit, but at the end of the series, to me, she just seems like a useless ( because really apart from helping the DA, what else does she do ?) addition that just doesn't ring true as a person to me because she was just so static and flat as a character. A little development would have made some difference for me actually.
That being said, the only character I guess you can say I really can't stand is Hermione. Gosh she just grates on my nerves so much I could go one about why but that'd become a 1 page rant LOL. .
I do find it funny though, some people here mention Ginny but I gotta say, she's one of the few females in the HP series that I actually do lik, care about and am interested in. She's one of the few characters that's always nice to the nobodies like Luna and Neville and will call Hermione,Ron and Harry on their crap. I hate how the trio always get excused for some of the stuff they do by fans and characters, so it was great to see someone tell Hermione to shut it and to tell Ron off for degrading his own sister's character in front of his ow n friend ... she's obviously had to learn to fight for her stuff and to fight for her way ( as in not spoilt and used to having her way even though she's the only girl) and I love that she was smart on to move on with her life and then Harry falls for her ... I fail to see how her dating guys, especially when Harry doesn't know about it or isn't around them when she's with her boyfriend, is supposed to make him jealous. Not a good plan then LOL. She just moved on and he fell for her .. love that !
