WELL MOST SHALLOWLY I actually really like his character design. As of this week, I've cosplayed three different versions of him and have...another one in the next week or so and there are many more I want to do. As a character to play, he's so... OKAY THIS IS OBVIOUSLY FROM A SUPER BIAS because I am also aware that the fandom that doesn't love him hates him with a passion--partly because he is the most...overappreciated character in fandom. It kind of sucks because it makes me feel like I should apologize for loving him as much as I do. I think that Izaya is a character who is just so sure of himself. He's very confident in himself and his abilities and finds amusement in the weirdest things. He's not ~normal~ and he knows it well and instead of being upset by it, he's almost pleased about it and takes advantage of it. He "loves humanity" but doesn't love humans because he's so amused by it and people's...reactions to things. Izaya's a very different type for me to play, because he's a troll that knows he's a troll and enjoys being a troll and...I DON'T USUALLY DO TROLLS but at the same time, he's so unrepentant about being terrible and twisting information and stirring up the pot just to see what'll happen. I mean, as much as I am super not-confident in my play of him, I still love it.
I RAMBLED A LOT and I don't even know if I ever ended up answering you /o\
who is someone you'd love to play in CFUD but would never app because someone plays them or they just wouldn't fit or...

Izayaaa...
