I know that everyone have conflicted emotions about Grisha, but for me I like Grisha.
It's just that I like Grisha when he was still whole, the one in the third epoch.
I don't know everything about him in that era, not like I know Klein, but there's some point that made me like about him.
1. He brings light back into the earth
2. He defeats almost every ancient gods so human can walk freely on earth
3. He researching the first blasphemous slate to made 22 pathway system of safe to consume potions and ascension ritual so that human can reach the higher position safer. Not completely safe mind you, but safer.
4. He save Lilith from corruption and assist Amanises in killing Flegrea
5. When he failed to suicide and split into humanity that went mad and cold divinity, the fact that the divinity part of himself is like AI that have no emotions (it's still baffles me what he does to Medici like wtf) but everything He does is for the goal of protecting the earth and even if necessary He doesn't hesitate to ### himself for that(this is spoiler part of COI if ykyk)
That five part may not be much, but it's enough for me to like Grisha before he split. (Idk much about COI part because I don't read it so idk how does Grisha Adam behave in there)
Anyway, in my opinion Grisha does everything He can to raise human status and give them freedom. That itself is worthy of admiration.
P.s just because I like Grisha doesn't mean I like TC and Adam. TC was humanity part that went mad and that affect His believer and anyone in hanged man pathways. And this it's also affect people view of the god and made TC become mad god. It's vicious cycle that can be only break if TC regain his sanity and love for human.
Compared to TC I kinda like Adam more, but not much and it's more about neutrality because Adam was cold machine that only calculated the best probability for Earth to survive in apocalypse but ignore the little detail like human plight and personal relationship, example: Medici's loyalty.
P. S. S I got some theory tho, that whatever's little humanity Adam and TC have it went to his only son, Amon.
The fact that Amon, despite dislike by everyone, can survive until now is testament to his skills and his dad protection.
Killing him is probably hassle, but the fact that he was not being ganged up by gods is also because his backing.
In 3rd epoch he was protected by ASG, in 4th it's by Adam (still his dad btw), and then in 5th it's by Grisha Adam.
Even Klein who can kill him need to think twice because Adam and thus allowing Amon to transfer his consciousness into clone
Well that's my theory at least
