User blog comment:WhiteCherry/What unpopular opinions do you have about Naruto ocs?/@comment-32385341-20191123111741/@comment-25156300-20191123124451

So you hate Mary Sues, which really isn't an unpopular opinion. Overall they are usually hated within the OC community. Most of the time, they have no real substance to them, which makes any "story" with them bland. Also that they are often made purely to play out a romance with a specific canon character, so no thought goes into the rest of their development.

I agree with the mature characters. I initially didn't even do much with my sensei character, but now I have multiple adults with key roles in my story. Some of them practically have a small side story to my main plot, all on their own.
