Hearing about giving someone a positive effect gives me a positive effect too, so thank you for being so nice :)

Really? It appears they're just biased Kokichi fans who dislike Kaito solely because he had a conflict with him. It's sad that some people won't appreciate great aspects of the series for such trivial reasons.

Yes and no, honestly. I do think Kokichi can be overrated in certain parts of the fandom, and for the wrong reasons. When he's overrated, it's by his stereotypical fangirls who idolize him because "he's definitely gay for Shuichi," ignoring the most interesting aspects of Kokichi's not so easy to analyze personality or how well he ties with the main theme and philosophy of the game. Or, you know, how he orchestrates possibly the best case of the entire franchise.

So yeah, I do believe that as one of the main characters, one with many interesting interactions, huge affect on the story, and being an embodiment of one of the game's central themes; he definitely deserves his praise. But if he's adored by someone solely because of Oumasai (or, to a lesser extent, Oumota), he's definitely overrated.
