Speaking of...what exactly bothered you about him?

To fully grasp what they did in the early episodes, you might wanna watch the show multiple times. The show does a lot of stuff then and when you watch the first time, as you don't really know what's going on, you miss a lot of stuff. While, for example, there is a little more focus on Tachibana at the beginning, Hajime and Kenzaki do have quite a lot of moments to shine too, it's just that you might not notice them at first, because the show practically tells you to focus on Tachibana more.
I think for Blade it's best if you watch the show multiple times and focus on a different character for each run. The first time watching, I cared most for Tachibana (which also comes from the bonus of having seen the actor in Fourze and Sailor Moon before), the second time I focused more on Kenzaki and the third time, I learned a lot more about Hajime and Mutsuki.
And even now, I still notice new stuff when re-watching the show.
