 * 3) He generally flirts with other girls at school. But, he "loves" them for their bodies rather than for who they are.
 * 4) Not only does he hurt the girl who loves him, but countless other girls who have fallen for his "charm", causing a lot of suffering and devastation.

Redeeming qualities

 * 1) Luckily, his womanizing ways bit him back in the rear. And at the end of the series, he receives his own comeuppance.
 * 2) Even though he or the series on its own may anger viewers, he is an example of how egregiously perverse behavior lead to consequences.

Trivia

 * 2) Due to the fact that he treats women badly and he has a sex addiction, he is widely hated by many audiences.
 * 3) He has children with Sekai and Setsuna. However, the continuity is unknown.
