Top Ten Characters Who Aren't Antagonists, but Act Like It

For all the characters who are complete jerks, but get away with it because the writers have terrible perspective. Most would be worse than the actual antagonists, or at least more unlikable in comparison. Karma Houdinis can be added here as well, especially if the writers still picture them as a "good guy".
The Top Ten
1 Edward Cullen (The Twilight Saga) Edward Cullen is a fictional character in Stephenie Meyer's Twilight series. He is featured in the books Twilight, New Moon, Eclipse and Breaking Dawn, and their corresponding film adaptations, and the as yet unfinished novel Midnight Sun—a re-telling of the events of Twilight from Edward's perspective.

5 Stephanie (Total Drama Presents: The Ridonculous Race)
6 Fred Figglehorn (iCarly; Fred: The Movie; Fred: The Show) Fred Figglehorn is a fictional character created and portrayed by American actor Lucas Cruikshank. He rose to prominence in the early days of YouTube. In 2013, Cruikshank retired the character because he could no longer do the Fred voice. There was also a Fred movie trilogy that lasted from 2010 to 2012.
7 Spongebob Squarepants (mostly seasons 6-8) SpongeBob SquarePants is a fictional character and the titular character and protagonist of the American animated television series of the same name.
8 Eugene H. Krabs (SpongeBob SquarePants) Eugene H. Krabs, or simply Mr. Krabs, is a fictional character in the American animated television series SpongeBob SquarePants.
9 Sam Puckett (iCarly & Sam and Cat) Samantha "Sam" Puckett is the deuteragonist of iCarly who later went on to star on its spin-off show Sam & Cat. She is portrayed by the American actress Jennette McCurdy.
10 Peter Pan (Peter Pan) Peter Pan is a character created by Scottish novelist and playwright J. M. Barrie. A free spirited and mischievous young boy who can fly and never grows up, Peter Pan spends his never-ending childhood having adventures on the mystical island of Neverland as the leader of the Lost Boys, interacting with fairies, pirates, mermaids, Native Americans, and occasionally ordinary children from the world outside Neverland.

He seems like more of antagonist than Captain Hook. He enjoys seeing Captain Hook in life threatening situations and he cut off his hand and fed it to a crocodile for no reason except his own amusement. Now Hook is pursued relentlessly by the crocodile who wants to finish him off.

The Contenders
11 Courtney (Total Drama)
12 Kuzco (The Emperor's New Groove)

Even though Yzma is supposed to be the main villain, Kuzco seems like the real villain when you consider how he treats both his servants and peasants. Plus, he fired Yzma for no real reason.

13 Dean Richmond (The Nutty Professor)

He only cares about money and is always mean to Sherman. He's a giant jerk.

14 King Jaffe Joffer (Coming to America)

He was mean to Lisa and didn't think she was good enough for his son just because she wasn't royalty. But he does accept her later.

15 Patroklos (Soul Calibur)

Worst fighting game protagonist ever. I mean, he barely displays any heroic traits and even one his first acts in the SCV story mode was to kill someone whom he accuses. How the writers thought of that has a heroic introduction is way out of my grasp.

Honestly, Pyrrha should have been the main protagonist instead.

16 John Hammond (Jurassic Park)
17 King Harold (Shrek 2)

Just because of the way he treated Shrek just because he's an ogre. But at least he accepts him in the end.

18 Zander Barcalow (Starship Troopers)
19 Micah Bell (Red Dead Redemption II)
20 Maggie Pesky (The Buzz on Maggie)
21 General Woodman (Evolution)
22 Warren Kincaid (Bride of Chucky)
