I never hated Sephiroth in the way you normally should with a villain. He was a very interesting villain early on but the transition from admired hero to villain felt a bit bizzare and quick. He basically just went a bit mad and snapped. He did make me want to kill him in the latter stages though. It annoyed me how he kept leaving pieces of "Mother" instead of fighting you himself.

Maybe I'm just a psychopath, but I kinda sympathized with him.  in FFVII, the humans effectively commited genocide on his race and are destroying the world he was bred to protect; in an odd way, he was fully justified in destroying humanity.  That was, until he decided to use the planet's power to gain immortality or whatever.  he was borderline sympathetic until he changed his motives to be selfish. 

I think they could have dealt with the transformation more effectively. He's lived with humans all his life so his turning psychopath seemed far too quick. He might not have been raised by close family but he would have had comrades and made friends with humans. We never saw a mental battle between his emotional link with humanity and his bizzare newly discovered links with Jenova and the Anchients.

A few nights of heavy reading and he's ready to kill all humans
