Hello, I’ve got a curiosity. I really do like Ayato too but what exactly made him become so loved? I know he got some good aspects too but what makes him stand out from the crowd so as to appeal to so many people? I hope this doesn’t come off as wrong, I’m just wondering haha.
// He’s visually made after the standard so it’s obvious that he’ll have the most desirable features, which draw people in. Other than that, he can act cute and childish but also mature and responsible if he wants to. He knows how to have fun, and despite his dumb comedic relief role, he has a very sharp mind. He may appear arrogant and self-centered, but he is genuinely kind and selfless. He's also a mentally strong individual who isn't scared to stand out for others or himself. Basically, he's the perfect boyfriend if you want to enjoy your youth, also taking into account that he’s canonically really good in bed. xD
Moreover, I feel like he’s a very realistic character, since he has little to no plot armor and he’s one of the very few characters that always must face the consequences of their actions, no matter if the actions were bad or good. That’s exactly how it works in real life too; family won’t always be by your side, people will try to tear you down or take advantage of you even if you helped them and love is useless in certain situations. Perhaps that’s why a lot of people can relate to and sympathize with him. On top of that, at first I thought Rejet made his brothers hurt him out of the blue only for dramatic effect but that thing was already foreshadowed in the early games/content, so I would rather say that they just filled up those plot holes. Considering that Rejet revealed (almost) every detail about him and that his backstory makes the most sense in relation to Yui and the Adam plan, he can be considered a somewhat "complete" character, which makes people feel closer to him, if you get what I mean.
