I like his heart of gold. Like that time he was awarded tons of money for protecting the Earth and immediately turned around and gave it all to Goku just 'cause it was the right thing to do.
Goku didn't even want it. Mr. Satan had to convince him to take the money.
My Tumblr. Currently side-by-side liveblogging Digimon Adventure, sub vs dub.I didn't dislike Mr. Satan as a character, but didn't really like the way he looked...
Rules of the Internet 45. Rule 45 is a lie. Check out my art if you notice.I don't hate him either. He proved himself to me when he convinced Buu to stop just by being willing to talk to him.
He's also a reminder for me of how some characters will get development if Toriyama likes them enough to do so. Satan is a Joke Character. One with a lot of Hidden Depths, but a joke character none the less. He's kinda exactly the character Old Birman would enjoy writing.
But I look hate him, and I look at the suddenly returning Pilaf Gang, and I think...what about all those other characters you made who you do nothing with?
What about that girl who you randomly married off to the main character for a really dumb reason? What about that lady who could be considered a accidental Proto-super saiyan who just fucking disappeared?
Why did you bring in a girl to fall in love with Gohan then make her utterly irrelevant?
When is Chiaotzu going to become Super (whatever the hell Chiaotzu is) God Super whatever?
...Right. That last one is dumb. This is ultimately just me bitching my usually bitch tests.
I thank all of you for putting up with me.
Hail Satan.
One Strip! One Strip!Convincing Buu to stop killing people.
Convincing people to put up their hands to give the Spirit Bomb energy.
One Strip! One Strip!Necessary or not, it's what happened. The Spirit Bomb, I mean.

This song needs more love.Against Fat Buu, if he didn't meet Mr. Satan either Gotenks, or more likely Gohan would have just killed him, and then they would have used the Dragonballs to revive everyone.
Against Kid Buu, after reviving everyone they could have just had Gohan come in and end things quickly. Vegeta vetos that in favor of a much harder, symbolic victory that doesn't even stick because most of the people on Earth have no idea what's going on and have all of their memories of Buu erased. Meaning the whole "Satan convinces everyone to give their energy" thing was just one step in a very unnecessary detour to end that battle.
None of this reflects my opinion of said character development of either Satan or Mr. Buu.
But with it all in mind, I can't take the point "Mr. Satan saved people from Buu twice" seriously. But, none of this really matters, and I'd rather not ruin anyone else's fun more than I might already have.
Edit: Maybe Mr. Satan was important for stalling and getting Mr. Buu out to stall so they could bring everyone else back in the first place. So, maybe he gets points for that?

LSB Ks opinion is well explained to me, and I never took um bridge with it to begin with.

I can see the point with the Spirit Bomb thing. That's on Toriyama for being so hell bent on keeping Gohan out of the fight now that he'd decided to push for making Goku the big hero again.
One Strip! One Strip!- Goku: Let's just bring Gohan here to deal with Buu now that he's alive again!
- Vegeta: No! We're sticking with my plan! Because it's a great plan! It has symbolism and stuff. We'll use the power of the Earth to defend the Earth against this threat!
- Goku: But isn't Buu a threat to the entire universe?
- Vegeta: NOBODY CARES ABOUT THE UNIVERSE!!!
- Goku: Okay...but can we bring Gohan here to stall Buu rather than risking complete annihilation of your soul?
- Vegeta: ...
- Five Minutes Later
- Goku: Okay, Gohan, we need you to fight Buu, but don't win. We've got this whole symbolism thing going on. It's very important to Vegeta. Just keep him on the ropes for an hour or two.
- Vegeta: Try and look like it's really hard so no one will think about how quickly you could have ended this.
