The Umbrella Academy
Even after the firing of its second time of year , Netflix’sUmbrella Academyremained one of the most popular series on the cyclosis service . For the most part , the show is jolly well - liked and most of the criticisms for it go around around the likability of certain case and conversely the distaste for others . When it come to the difference between the most sympathetic characters and the least , the gap is pretty pregnant . Most of the devotee favorites of the show are pretty easy recognizable , and almost universally consort upon . The more unsympathetic characters , however , are much more hard to narrow down down .
Updated on August 13th , 2022 , by Shawn S. Lealos : In 2022 , Umbrella Academy shake things up again , this time by sending them into an alternate domain where they were never the mankind ’s heroes , and there they encounter the hoagie that replaced them in The Sparrow Academy . The third season saw a slight adaptation of the lifelike novel Hotel Obsidian , but the addition of both the Sparrow Academy and some new characters shook up the dynamic between the sib from the first two seasons . With Vanya becoming Viktor and Allison read a dark turning , it also start to falsify how the fans felt about them in the end . There is still one more season to go , so whether the heroes and villains conserve their post in lover ' nous or modification will all be based on how they ultimately deal with the Revelation .

Diego Hargreeves
Diego has been one of the most democratic members ofUmbrella Academysince the first time of year . Fans considered himone of the bestUmbrella Academycharactersthanks to his compassion , care for his phratry , and impressive fighting art .
In the third season , Diego had an significant function as he had to conform to Stan and prove his worth as a potential father . Diego has gone through as much as anyone since the first season , starting as an outcast and then finding and fall behind his kinsperson more than once , while still keep his head uncoiled .
Chet Rodo
Chet Rodo was a newcomer in the third time of year , and he was an instant sports fan favorite . He was the Hotel Obsidian manager and someone who was there to attempt to keep thing in line of credit . However , even when he encounter the Umbrella Academy members , he turned his head and permit them to stay despite being wanted .
Chet was a side character that stole the show every time he appeared in the time of year . He also live longer than almost anyone that time of year before the apocalypse arrived andtheUmbrella Academycharacters died again , and fans for certain want him back for season four .
Stanley
It is often unvoiced to like baby characters in movies and TV shows . Too many times they amount across as problematic and precocious . When it comes to Stan , that danger was there , but he was capable to ride out just on the right side of annoyance to make him a fan favorite .
Diego had an attitude that helped him check in with the Umbrella and Sparrow Academy member , and that is likely because he was there to find out if Diego would be a worthy father to Lila ’s unborn child . His interactions with Diego were highlighting of the season .
Five
pop out thing off is the character have a go at it only as Number Five . For mostUmbrella Academyfans , their favourite fibre is either Klaus or Five . It ’s sometimes unbelievable how adept , at such a young age , Aidan Gallagher is at portray an older , time - jaunt assassin stuck in a teen ’s body .
As the glue that keeps the Umbrella Academy together , Five ’s hysteric cynicism combined with his casual badass moments make him such an enjoyable part . Through both season to this percentage point , he ’s been one of the serial ' best characters and the fans utterly sleep with him .
Hazel
Of all the fictitious character , there are none that make a bigger transition in the creative thinker of rooter than Hazel . In the serial ' commencement , Hazel and his partner , Cha Cha , were project to seem like the true regretful guy wire . patently , it ’s learn along the path that they ’re simply cat’s-paw of the Commission .
As things come on throughout the first time of year , Hazel becomes more and more appealing . As he come to detest the work he does for the Commission , dreaming of a simple and non - tearing future with Agnes , his character becomes full and better . After he undertake to take down the coach , it find intimately impossible not to favour or root for him just a fleck . It ’s a shame his role in season 2 was so minuscule as after the determination of time of year 1 he was starting to seem like an come out devotee favorite .
Ben
Finally , an actual member of the Umbrella Academy . Even though he ’s technically all in , Ben Hargreeves plays a pretty substantial role in the serial , especially throughout season 2 . As the spectral companion to his blood brother Klaus , the scenes with those two are some of the 2nd time of year ’s best .
Considering the cliffhanger at the goal of season 2 , it seems like Ben could become a pretty unlikeable character in the show ’s third season . However , after his time in the series became more prominent , Ben apace became one of the more prosperous characters .
Allison
After season 1,Allison Hargreeves was a difficult characterto assess . She was far from a disliked character , but she really did n’t stand up out as one of the fan favorites , specially as a fundamental member of the Umbrella Academy .
Season 2 , however , took Allison to a new level of likability . She became a much more merry character and one that was easy for the fans to enjoy . Her reinvent story as a polite rights militant in 1963 Dallas added to her much more spirited personality and her relationship with Raymond Chestnut was a much receive one . However , Allison went from one of the show ’s good characters to one of its most grave in the third time of year when she finally lost control and lashed out at everyone after her loss .
Klaus
Is it even potential not to wish the fictitious character of Klaus ? He ’s by far one of the bright lights of the series .
At the same fourth dimension , he provides a bulk of the show ’s more humorous moments , he ’s also one of the more tortured phallus of the Umbrella Academy and one that ’s pass through his sightly share of catastrophe . He was howling through the first time of year and his newfound character as a cultus loss leader in time of year 2 made him even more hysteric , actual , and generally likable . From the get - go , he ’s been a clear fan preferred and as there is seldom ever a bad scene with him in it , that probably wo n’t change anytime shortly .
Can’t Stand
Harlan
Harlan was an interesting character because he start out in the second time of year as a child and then develop into an grownup in the future of his timeline with powers that rival Vanya / Viktor . The big difference is that Harlan get laid how to moderate his power since he make out about them since puerility .
As a child , he was precocious , but as an adult , now named Lester Pocket , he was a good soul who did n’t want to hurt anyone . However , he cause a lot of death and death that suffer lover - favorite characters , making it hard to persist on his side through the third season .
Sparrow Ben
In the first two season , Ben was one of the most likable character onUmbrella Academy . The same ca n’t be say for his Sparrow Academy variant . Ben died before the first season start , but he was still around as a shade that help / annoyed Klaus . The Sparrow Academy adaptation never died and became a dork .
There were some fan favorite in the Sparrow Academy , but Ben was not one of them . As the only equivalent weight of the Umbrella Academy . fan mostlycompared him to the genial and helpful Ben , and that his arrogance a hard thing to bear .
Reginald Hargreeves
devotee not loving Reginald Hargreeves should n’t come as much of a surprisal . for sure , he ’s the reason the Umbrella Academy was even a affair in the first blank space , but he ’s also the cause of just about every issue that exists within the group .
Much of the distaste for Reginald also issue forth from his role in the show ’s second time of year . While it was interesting to see the mathematical group meet a younger version of their Padre , it just reminded fans of how poorly he treat them . The serial is essentially designed to make you hate Reginald and that was get home over the course of season 2 .
The Handler
Again , it should n’t be too surprising that the Handler is one of the more unlikable characters inUmbrella Academy . Even more so than Reginald Hargreeves , the Handler is the shows one true villain . It takes some time to gain it through the first season , but it ’s as clear as day throughout season 2 .
Kate Walsh does a wondrous job of imbuing the Handler with menace and indifference that makes her one of the show ’s most unlikable characters . After season 1 , she was already one of the few type that lover truly could n’t digest , and season 2 took that to the extremum .
Lila
One of the few characters in the serial publication that is n’t drawn flat from the source textile of the comics , who took form during time of year 2 , was the Handler ’s " girl , " Lila . From the start , devotee are meant to believe she ’s on the right side of thing and a perfect partner for Diego . As things go on , though , it ’s learned that she ’s actually the exact opposite .
Although there are definitely some who still hope Lila and Diego wind up together , there ’s a much with child detail that did n’t really care for the Lila character . Fans were give more reason to sympathize with her towards the end of the 2nd time of year , but still not enough to really get behind her as a prominent character . Her role is one of the many terra incognita heading into time of year 3 and as thing stand it ’s good to say fans are dying for her to be as large as she was in season 2 .
Vanya/Viktor
These next duet of unappealing grapheme might not necessarily be the show ’s most disliked characters , but they stand out above the residue as fundamental members of the actual Umbrella Academy . It may raise some controversy , but Vanya is one of the characters that fans are n’t exactly in erotic love with .
Most of the ill about her come from her use in season 1 more than in time of year 2 . Many trust that while she is obviously a product of the mistreatment from her father and some of her sibling , and the circumstances of pick up her powers are tragic , her fierce side was n’t really justify . Vanya is , without a dubiousness , one of the series ' most complex characters , and when the character changed to Viktor in season 3 , it really shook up the moral force .
Luther
Another less - favorable character that might get most by surprise is Luther Hargreeves . Similar to Vanya , a lot of fans did n’t screw Luther ’s character in the first season but think he was much better in time of year 2 .
For Luther , most of the criticism orb around his motives and disconnected patronage for his siblings go their own way . Obviously , that mostly applies to time of year 1 ’s Luther , but it ’s still one of the main reason people did n’t have it away the character . His womb-to-tomb psychic trauma , and evidently his closing off on the Moon , made him the elbow room he is but fans just never really took to him . Again , like Vanya , it ’s not as if Luther is a high-risk character , but just among one of the most prominent in the show that fans are n’t actually big sports fan of . Considering the melioration people see in Luther through season 2 , there ’s hope that he could become one of the more likable characters during the third season .
