I just don't get why people hate him

People say he takes too much screen time. Characters need to show development that's why they have a lot of screen time.

Some people blame him for Pyrrha's death and wished he died instead of her. Each experience makes Jaune a better leader. Knowing your strengths and weaknesses can improve him as a person and a leader.

Some people are sexist saying "this is about the girls of Team RWBY and not about a clumsy token liar who suffers from motion sickness and happens to be a boy who is a terrible leader and let his teammate/girlfriend die" or basically "It's about Team RWBY and not about a blonde boy with no meaning to the show".

Others just hate him for being a plot device.

Or maybe people think of him as a overconfident sensitive weakling who gets picked on and wings it like he's Leeroy fucking Jenkins.

Don't hate me but I love Jaune as a character.
