^ I agree with you; though I don't mind the hatred because everyone had their first time. Even until now I still had that certain that kind of members ranking in my mind based on my favorites but I love them all together as 9.
They are complementing each other and are as humane as we are. They make mistakes, they're not 'oh so flawless' but because of that they become flawless in my eyes.
I can feel connected and related to them, as if they are all my classmates after seeing them in action on shows

I hope you get yours soon
