I guess Kabuto. I watched a fair amount and then just stopped. Tendou is like the biggest asshole ever to his "friend" Kagami. I guess Decade is close as well but I do enjoy the suit design more than Kabuto's so he has that going for him at least

I haven't finished Wizard yet so I can't talk about hating it.
Haven't seen Decade but it only had 31 episodes. Its like asking a kid born 2 months premature why he isn't as good at basketball as his cousins. There's some leeway that you need to give. Kuuga is my answer, but if I find a worse one I'll tell you. You have this interesting setup of the origins of the Kuuga powers and the infighting of the Grongi but what do they do? Focus on random side characters and not the villains or the main characters. All story potential is swept under the rug in favor of two parter focus on kindergarten kids , or a female character we never saw before talking about her fears with her child, or a girl who's really good at the flute. The only times the story went from terrible to decent was the episodes where Yuuske got the upgrades and some of the endgame Gurongi that could change forms. Even the upgrade stories didn't have the hero being beaten down and rising up to beat the bad guy with his new power trope. Yuuske only got the rising forms by accident after getting hit and needing a shock to the heart. Hell, the Amazing Mighty arc was just him saying, "I'll just get another shock to the heart then" no trials or tribulations, no overcoming an enemy from the new found inner strength the hero has. In the last episode, 49, all the characters stand around and its boring epilouge stuff, as if the writers are trying to say, "Yelp, that was a good series, so let's look back."

Shin. I don't really have a good reason, I just hate his Fatality finishers.

Of the shows that I have watched in its entirely, it's Wizard. So much wasted potentials.
Otherwise it's Decade, cuz I couldn't stay interested long enough to finish the series.

of the ones I have seen I don't know. I had things I liked about them all. decade could have been done better even though I like its concept. decade is a rider that needed more episodes and better writing to make it better. I am surprised no one has mentioned the rider who had Ferbus as a companion.

So besides Tendou, who I kind of liked the way he was, why do people not like Kabuto?

It's a very disjointed story. It's overly complex and throws twists that the audience weren't privy to and the story didn't hint at. Following it can be a headache and if you weren't a fan of Tendou, that means the main character is also grating to watch. I like Tendou and Kabuto, but I can see why others hate it.

I never really had any issue with the series, either (Aside from one dumbass twist that reveals Tendou's relation with another character), but I'm not blind to the vast problems it had. Character arcs that are resolved so fast you forget why it was important, plot twists that come from so far left field that you have to pause and ask "Really!?", and ancillary characters whose purpose seems less to serve the plot and more to show off how much better Tendou is at life than everyone else.
