Aldnoah.Zero Season One
| I strongly think so. |
| I'm pretty sure that midget maid from the same series is the worst character of 2014. |
| I hate him with a passion. |
HopeLight said: That's Inaho. There you are, I have to find you to laugh on your face. =))) |
HopeLight said: That's Inaho. Nope definitely Slaine. he's almost tied with Demonic Justice girl from Akame ga Kill |
| Oh... the buthurt... I though he was fine. From a character perspective I think his actions make sense. For Inaho I was waiting for a plot twist where he was actually a robot. |
Vox_Populi said: He makes a strong argument. /thread everyone His thesis is so solid that I too started hating Slaine! Slaine is a piece of shit that deserved all his torture, amirite? |

KiraMustDie said: Oh... the buthurt... I though he was fine. From a character perspective I think his actions make sense. For Inaho I was waiting for a plot twist where he was actually a robot. Saving the main threat to your most important person's life, makes sense? Yeah right. minouneetzoe said: Vox_Populi said: He makes a strong argument. /thread everyone His thesis is so solid that I too started hating Slaine! Slaine is a piece of shit that deserved all his torture, amirite? After this episode he definitely deserved a lot worse. The series would have ended far better if he had been killed in the crash. Cruhteo would be alive and we'd have a civil war between knights with Inaho and the Princess backing them up |

| lol |
| No. I don't like him but he's not even the worst character in the show, let alone 2014. Inaho is worse |
| Oh look the slaine fandumbs are crawling out of their caves at last |
| Why not |
Darklight0303 said: Oh look the slaine fandumbs are crawling out of their caves at last Not a fan of either, but Slaine is more human than Inaho, by far. |
Akichi said: Darklight0303 said: Nope definitely Slaine. he's almost tied with Demonic Justice girl from Akame ga Kill Demonic Justice gets worst villain, but at least she's insane from the start and is meant to be hated. Plus she knows exactly what her beliefs are and follows through with them decisively. Slaine though, a 'heroic' protagonist who got the idiot ball. "Let's save the guy who told me STRAIGHT TO MY FACE that he was going to kill my beloved princess. What, I screwed up? Fuck it, shoot everybody." Slaine wins. This pretty much. Save Count > Finally sees his "Hime-sama" > Princess trying to help Inaho > Count kills Princess > Get sad/mad > Kill Count? > Kill Inaho? > Take Princess for "reasons". Worst. Character. |
Darklight0303 said: HopeLight said: That's Inaho. Nope definitely Slaine. he's almost tied with Demonic Justice girl from Akame ga Kill I've seen you around everywhere shitting on Slaine. I frankly don't even know why people are hating on Slaine. He turned A/Z on it's head and made everyone excited for January. Before this, it was the Plot Armored Bad Ass leading his harem into battle and winning every time. Inaho was probably the least interesting character in the show. Not to mention he was ALWAYS against the odds and still managed to "outsmart" every enemy every time. It's funny that the one episode that he is faced with adversity, he dies. And look at this from Slaine's point of view, guys. He saved Saazbaum due to his bad past with "Orange". In a second that could determine everything, he saw someone that he understood/knew about to be killed by someone that he thought was more of an enemy than the Count was. I, for one, love what Slaine did. It was tragic. It was split-second. It was realistic. It was...human. He's not a robot that thinks every situation through 1000 times in his sleep like Inaho. He is a normal person that acts irrationally at times, because human beings make mistakes. Yeah, it was the totally wrong decision...but that's what makes it interesting. That's what make future complex characters. |

Darklight0303 said: His bad past with Orange was more of a priority than someone who EXPLICITLY told him he would stop at nothing to kill his princess? Yeah right. Try again Um, yes. Saazbaum didn't seem to be much of a threat at this point. IMO, Saazbaum was more of a wildcard that Slaine was. Didn't expected Saazbaum to appear out of nowhere, wasn't surprised when Slaine killed Inaho. |

Didn't expected Saazbaum to appear out of nowhere, wasn't surprised when Slaine killed Inaho. NOt what I am talking about. I am talking about Slaine tackling Inaho's mech off of Sazbaum. A mech that was already damaged. THAT was his biggest stupid mistake from an objective standpoint given his ultimate goal which was to keep his princess alive and find her. THAT is why I hate the piece of shit |
| How can he be the wost when he just killed the worst? |
 I love Christine "If one advances confidently in the direction of his dreams, and endeavors to live the life which he has imagined, he will meet with a success unexpected in common hours. He will put some things behind, will pass an invisible boundary; In proportion as he simplifies his life, the laws of the universe will appear less complex, and solitude will not be solitude, nor poverty poverty, nor weakness weakness." - Henry David Thoreau |

You can't help someone that can only see black and white. Anyone that can't see and understand Slaine's motivations can't be reasoned with. You can hate him with a burning passion and want him to die if you want, but calling him the worst character in this show? Psh. You guys realize without Slaine this show would be 24 episodes of Inaho killing Martians/cooking eggs and growing his harem while saving the world. |

| "Let's help the guy who wants to kill the princess instead of the guy I know has been protecting the princess." No matter how you slice it, Slaine is a fucking moron. Worst character of 2014? Maybe, maybe not, but he's up there, so I voted yes anyway. |

fst said: Darklight0303 said: He would after the princess made her announcement from Russia. No way, that makes too much sense. Point is Slaine has not had any worthwhile benefit in this series whatsoever. Every time he thought he was helping he made things worse so writing him out would have been a benefit |

Without Slaine, we would have no character to show us the "enemy" side, therefore most of the Orbital Knights would be simple plot fodder...even though they already are. Sigh. |

| He should've remained as a swimmer in that Japanese highschool. |
| Isayama Hajime should be awarded The Manga with The Highest Inconsistencies of Characters' Appearances. He keeps performing multiple plastic surgeries on those Shingeki No Kyojin characters in a SINGLE chapter. Yes, I've read up to the latest chapter of Shingeki No Kyojin manga. Forced myself to read through the kidsketching chapters after the anime's ended. At least from now on, I only have to go through the hell once a month. Patiently awaiting SNK TV/movie/OVA anime-sequel. The 2015 SNK live-action movie would probably suck. |
| I dont know what that retard expected after saving him...Lol slaine....Please change the title as "2014's most retarded character" |

Darklight0303 said: Slaine aided them during their fight with Femieanne. They wouldn't have survived otherwise.He would after the princess made her announcement from Russia. |
| I want Slaine torture again XD But I don't hate him that much. It give shock, yes, but I am glad he make some resolve at least |

Sazbaum loved to state his motivation every time he was in battle anyway so nothing of value was earned from the so called glimpse on Martians. Please answer this question honestly. Do you really think that Inaho is a better character than Slaine? Think about how utterly boring this show would be with Inaho as the sole MC. Inaho actually isn't even a real person. He's just the most exaggerated form of the "Silent Bad-Ass" in any anime I have watched. Think about his motivations and complexities...oh yeah he doesn't have any of either. Except eggs, we can't forget Inaho's eggs because LULZ HE SO RANDOM RITE?!?!?! He was created to advance the plot for the audience until Slaine actually started the conflict. I really hate 1-dimensional characters, but I don't even think it's fair to say Inaho even has 1 dimension. He's just...bleh. I will say that he finally showed himself as somewhat of a realistic human being this episode, but then he died. Oh well. That's fine if you want to see the "Do no wrong" good guy smash the bad guys before getting the girl in the end, but mature writing isn't done that way. I'm not saying A/Z is anything close to a mature show, but Slaine doing what he did is a step in the right direction. |

| A tormented character that fails is a human character. A character that can always win using anime logic is pure fiction. This question should really be which Aldnoah Zero lead is the worst. The responses would prove insightful as to if viewers can separate plot devices from people. |
| Holy shit, Just watched the recent episode i was like, "Holy fucking maggot" That's why Inaho calls Slaine as a "bat" for no reason, He is literally blind and can't see through who should be saving or stand for. Moreover his name says it all, He will slays everyone and everything even it means lot of people have to die, what a pathetic ""whereabouts of the princess's body is still unknown" This pretty much confirms that Inaho is found dead, There's no way in hell a person would survive a headshot. Even though there's chances to survive a headshot as long as the bullet doesnt hit the major arteries but probability of that is very small aka unlikely will happens. Can't wait how another cour of this series will started. |

Even though there's chances to survive a headshot as long as the bullet doesnt hit the major arteries but probability of that is very small aka unlikely will happens. Can't wait how another cour of this series will started. Summed it up pretty well. Slaine's actions and character motivations are confusing to me. What reason does he have to shoot Inaho? Who is he fighting for? Count Saazbaum said straight to his face that he was going to kill the princess. Slaine wanted to save the princess...so, why in the hell was he trying to stop Inaho from killing Count Saazbaum again? Was it because Count Saazbaum let him live? Slaine's inner monologue and lack there of doesn't give us enough information about what is driving him or his actions. I don't know if this is poor writing or intentional, but as an anime viewer, it's aggravating to watch. |
| Why can't we just agree that the three main characters of Aldnoah are the worst characters of 2014. It's like when you participate in a competition when your a little kid and the adults say 'everybody is a winner' or in this particular case 'everybody is a loser'. |
| Gary Stu vs. Tormented Failure vs. Princess Moe--THERE CAN ONLY BE ONE! ...what? It's entertaining. Everyone's a loser but the one taking pleasure from the exchanges. Toucanbird said: Slaine's actions and character motivations are confusing to me. What reason does he have to shoot Inaho? You mean other than the fact Slaine knew Gary Stu had tried to kill him, and nearly succeeded, resulting in torture? And how that whole situation could've been avoided if Gary hadn't shot him down? Other than that Slaine had no logical motivation for wanting to kill 'Orange', so I do see your point. |
| I'd much rather just agree to disagree. At heart, this thread is still a poll asking for people's opinions. It's not a contest between the characters or the people voting, it's just people expressing their views on Slaine. If you want to explain why you feel a certain way about the character, please feel free to do so, but please don't point or argue with other people. As for my opinion on the original question, I don't think Slaine is the Worst character of this season, and I think that his faults do portray his human traits quite well, and covers that sphere of the human element nicely. As person though, I do dislike him. While I can relate to some of his decisions, they still don't make him likeable to me as a person. I still don't think he's the worst character of this season though, he's a decent character, that also happens to make unwise decisions, that I dislike. |
