So I've thought about it, and I think the reason some people hate the new Nevermore season is that they fall into the trap of thinking that "side" characters aren't supposed to be as fleshed out as main characters
Like no one complains when Lenore and Annabel get flashbacks, but that's because they're expected, even necessary since they're main characters. But, when perceived side characters start getting flashbacks, some people get angry
Also, no one complains when Annabel and Lenore get a ton of screen time, but when side characters get their moments in a SIDE CHARACTER DRIVEN ARC in a SIDE CHARACTER HEAVY STORY, some people get angry
The same people also like to blame the authors for this, when it is a problem of lack of care. The authors can not hold a gun to your head and make you care when they're actively giving you reasons to care? "They haven't given me a reason to care about them" well that's what they're currently doing so....
(one last point specifically abt Montresor, you can skip this part if it'll make you mad since Ik montresor is a controversial topic loll)
I think another problem is that people let their hatred for a character blind them to the depth of a character. I've seen people say that RnF have "forgotten" their characters because Montresor would never save Will because he hates him, which no?? Monty ain't a good person, he's a shitty little bastard, but he has a lot of depth as a character. What makes him so interesting is that no, he doesn't hate Will. No, he isn't always a terrible person on every single level. Yes, he does have a few redeeming qualities (however few). You can still hate him for what he's done/doing, which is entirely valid, but I don't think it's valid to portray as a one dimensional devil character who only exists to be a bitch and cause problems when he's sooooo much more than that (which still being a bitch).

Here's the fic's description:
"Teru is tired. So tired in fact that he overworks himself to death. This causes him to wake up as a supernatural. But how does that work? Doesn't he hate supernatural's with a burning passion? He's in denial about it. He could never be as disgusting as an apparition. That is until a rumor about him changes everything."
Read it if it sparks your interest! (*^▽^*)
