Teana Lanster, though this is a bit cheating since her Tsundereness was portrayed as something she should grow away from and she had since developed into a Batman equivalent Kuudere Batman equivalent.

I actually like Louise. I know many people her don't like her, probably because they watched the anime and haven't read the light novels. She really becomes a complex, deep and likeable character later on.

Searching for meaning in meanings^^ *brofist* Stars 4 needs more love.
My FF.net account^^ meh, even the reading the light novels and hearing what happens in them, I still hate her. She's portrayed as even worse than the anime version, but even though the other characters are shocked at her behavior, they do nothing. It understandable why a lot of people Abandon Ship for Louise/Saito.

Watch Symphogear^^^^
This. A thousand times this. It bugs me when the tsundere's personality never really changes over the course of the plot, or is sent up as a personality it's okay for her to cling to for goodness knows how long.
[tangent] I'm not the only one who's a little put off by the whole "Mode/flip" terminology on the trope page, am I? I connect words like those to somewhat...bothersome viewpoints, if you will. [/tangent]
My favorite, though? Celty all the way.

This is why Tanamachi Kaoru is awesome.

^ What's "bro" even supposed to mean in this sort of context? Can anyone explain that to me, 'cause I've heard it alot but I still don't know.

Did you really read the light novels? In any case I personally find it hard to hate someone who nearly committed suicide 3 times when she thought Saito was dead, and even decided to spend the rest of her life in a nunnery and erase her memories for his sake.
Well, other tsunderes I like are Rin, Asuka, since she has an exceptionally fucked up life and many others.

Ecstasy is Sustained IntensityI liked Kagome from Inuysha but unlike Manwiththeplan,I see nothing wrong with her character. She's very much a flawed character from start to finish and overreacts a lot. On the other hand, she's in love with an idiotic, romantically inept half-demon.
I expect any fifteen-year-old girl would be upset if they saw their boyfriend constantly getting hung up on his ex. Though the circumstances are a bit more extreme in Inuyasha....

^Kagome would be a whole lot more sympathetic if she didn't abuse Inuyasha so much in the beginning.
My favorite annoying Tsundere would have to be Shana. Yes, her "Urusai!" schtick is annoying, but she's not as abusive as most other Tsunderes are (and has an excuse considering she's his trainer), and Yuji (who to date is the most Oblivious to Love character I have ever seen) usually deserves it most of the time anyway.

My least liked annoying tsundere's (if not my most hated anime characters as a whole) are KirieKojima and Louise. Seriously those are probably the worst kinds of Tsundere imaginable.
At least Shana has the excuse of being constantly trined and Raised by Wolves since she was a little girl (And even if someone like Yuji is Oblivious to Love, that dosen't mean they need to be abused just because of that trait).

Watch Symphogear^^ In the beggining? During the beggining, Kagome was much more likable and Inu-Yasha usually had it coming. It got worse when he became less of a jerk yet Kagome (and thus the rest of the cast) still treated him like a Designated Villain in romantic situations anyway.
^Yes, in the VERY beginning he deserved it, but I meant that near the end Kagome did eventually mellow out, while before she would abuse the command to pummel him to the ground repeatedly. If she only did it once each time, then fine, but that was too much.
^^That's true, but Shana never did abuse him, and you have no idea how much I wanted to dope slap him, ESPECIALLY in the first half of Season 2. (Although even he doesn't deserve the above treatment.)
^ Can't say I'm particularly crazy about Shana, but I'm glad I'm not the only one who noticed Yuuji is complete dope. Oblivious to Love is a standard trait of Messy Brown Haired Anime Male Protagonists (MBAHPS) but even then the boy takes it to the levels of a superpower. His most obvious expy fares much, much better in that respect at least.
They give birth astride of a grave, the light gleams for an instant, then it's night once moreHis epxy however, reallly really will need a therapist if he ever gets back home. The kid deserves it. I would of strangled Lousie If I had to put up with her for at least a few days.
Watch SymphogearHuh, I never got the vibe that Yuji was oblivious (I mean, Kazumi outright confessed pretty damn early on) he's *indecisive* yes, but that's a different matter entirely.

^Correct, I have not watched Lovely Complex.
^^I'm talking mainly about Yuji's stupidity in the first half of Season 2. He KNOWS Kazumi loves him and SHOULD have some idea that Shana likes him, yet he gives Konoe the attention she wants to the point of walking her home and even accepting Kazumi and Shana's lunches and then SHARING THEM WITH KONOE, making Kazumi and Shana jealous and confusing them. He fails to realize that he can't accept romantic gestures from every girl who likes him.
Favorite annoying tsundere is definitely Asuka. Since she has reasons. And honestly she's kind of hilarious, at the beginning of her character arc anyway. Her infamous introduction scene where she slaps Touji in the face is probably the funniest moment in the entire Evangelion series.
That's exactly how I feel about her as well. She only came across as truly unlikeable at points in the second half. When the show shifted to Darker and Edgier, so did the characters.
