The Prince of Tennis/YMMV


 * Creators Pet: Echizen, but only in the manga since he's quite more sympathetic in the anime.
 * Die for Our Ship:
 * Several characters, but specifically: Sakuno (Ryoma/anyone shippers, but Momo/Ryo and Tzu/Ryo fans are specially bad), Yukimura (Atobe/Sanada fans) and Yanagi (Inui/Kaidoh fans). To a milder degree Momoshiro (Inu/Kai too), Kawamura and Saeki (Tezu/Fuji for both).
 * An doesn't have it THAT bad, but she still gets pot shots for "stringing Kamio along" and "playing with his feelings." Which brings up rather creepy Unfortunate Implications about how women should "owe" men love because they show open interest on them. (or for that matter, anyone owing anybody else love in such circumstances.)
 * Designated Protagonist Syndrome: Ryoma.
 * Draco in Leather Pants: Atobe, Yukimura, Kite. And their teams.
 * God Mode Sue: Ryoma is very frequently accused of being one of these by his anti-fans. Other character who have been given the God Mode Sue ball at one point or another are Yukimura, Fuji, Tezuka, Sanada, Atobe and Kevin Smith from the anime.
 * Launcher of a Thousand Ships: ... Who has NOT been paired up with either Keigo Atobe, Tezuka Kunimitsu and Shusuke Fuji in fanfiction and doujinshi, people? Sakuno also verges on the trope, since she's often used as a Possession Sue by some fangirls.
 * Magnificent Bastard: Keigo Atobe. Genichirou Sanada.  Arguably, Masaharu Nioh.
 * Moe Moe: Sakuno and Tomoka, specially during the Jyousei Shounan anime arc.
 * Narm: Atobe develops  in Shinpuri. LOLWAT.
 * That's nothing when compared with  after his and Kaidoh's doubles match with
 * Shishido's Important Haircut scene loses a good part of its awesome edge in the anime, due to how horribly Off Model the animation is
 * Rooting for The Empire: Many fans actively bash Seigaku for being "too overpowered" or just less interesting than the rival teams. Often, merely because it's the team that Echizen belongs to.
 * Real Women Never Wear Dresses: The reason why the Fan Dumb hails An as "the only decent female" and uses her to bash Sakuno and Tomoka. Ironically, An is the most fashion-oriented of the girls... and the only one wearing a long, flowing sundress (see her outfit in the Rikkai arc).
 * Rescued From the Scrappy Heap:
 * Sakuno's manga incarnation. Lots of people who don't stomach her in the anime adore her in the manga.
 * Conversely, other people bash her Yamato Nadeshiko manga self and call her a prspect Purity Sue or Relationship Sue, while saying that her Shrinking Violet anime self is a more realistic portrayal of girls her age.
 * Ron the Death Eater: While Ryoma can be a jerk sometimes, his anti-fans are rabid against him, especially when he's against ATOBE
 * The Scrappy: Aside of those hated for Die for Our Ship? Tomoka, Horio, Echizen (though he's more of a Creators Pet than anything), Jackal.
 * They Changed It Now It Sucks:
 * Rikkai fans have been whining for several years about how the team was portrayed in the anime and about . Lots of fans of the manga often say it of the original after the Hyoutei arc (the anime had caught up to the manga, changes started to be made).
 * Subverted later, when the OAV start covering the Nationals and get praise for portraying some rather... polemic manga scenes in a much more understandable and sympathetic light. I.e.,  in the manga is switched to   Or
