Talk:Sasuke VS Hiei/@comment-37674567-20190926101928/@comment-39801929-20190926150518

I can guarantee you that the reaction to Ben losing wouldn’t have been nearly as bad if he has lost to someone like, say, Danny Phantom or Goku. The thing about him losing to Hal is that pretty much NOBODY outside of comic nerds care much about GL. A fan-favourite like Ben losing to a character most people don’t care about or find lame is always going to cause anger. Here, the reaction isn’t as bad because Sasuke is at least losing to a character who people like.
