Compare that to Double, which had Shotaro and Philip constantly solving crimes and looking for who was dealing the memories and later.
Only recently has Haruto ever taken an active stance.

I find Haruto to be dull, and he really isn't unique, being a more subdued Wataru/Kiva.
I found him a bore to watch and only tends to be interesting when working with the zany Nitou.

Well that isn't true, Haruto has had ups, downs, comedy, scenes where he has to support characters and scenes where characters have to support him. To act like he does nothing out of the action scenes is a downright lie. I'm not going to go out and say he's this multi-layered protagonist for the ages but people go on and on here like he does nothing and that is absolute bullshit.

So far all Beast has done is put mayo on things and every time it seems like he's going through a character arc he comes full circle again and yet everyone praises Beast and shits on Haruto. That isn't to say I dislike Beast, I find him a lot of fun, but it's funny that Haruto comes under such harsh criticism and yet Beast is praised so heavily despite adding so little to the series.

And did you read that whole paragraph about the uniqueness or just stop on the word unique?
