What's your most hated/evil character who was required for the plot or a characters feelings to progress?

Most of them will be rivals to the mc I'm guessing.

mine is

rachel . Rarely have I ever wanted to strangle someone like that. Oh, also Parakewl/Paracule. Dude's just a giant cockroach (he's disgusting and should die, but somehow always survives)

they're both from tower of god

i love her though in tog... not as a human but as a character. im more likely to hate cliches than characters but i guess the main dude from tenjou tenge forget his name at the moment.

Tbh I really hated hinata and sasuke from naruto

I kind of like her as a character too, because I recognize her importance in making the plot move forward, even though I sometimed feel it's starting to get old

she's a character I love hating <3

edit: but I think the thread is about characters you hate as humans, not as characters, since the op mentioned they have to be required for the plot to move forward

edit2: just realised you probably meant you like her as a complex, multifaceted character, not as a plot mover
