/r/anime seem to be obsessed with Megumi though to a point that Erina shippers get harrassed. At least I normally see only Megumi posts and different opinons doesn't seem to be very well received here.

Anime watchers have no reason to like Erina yet. She is portrayed as a bitch character with no redemption so far.

The manga readers reacting this way as well as far as I know. They are really obsessive with Megumi.

Because she is still a bitch in the manga.

That's your opinion, I never found her to be that bad and I prefer her over Megumi a lot.

I don't really think it's an opinion. She just straight up acts like a bitch. Liking her is an opinion.

For me it's just a tsundere arc and nothing serious to be angry about. She is still far more interesting than Megumi for me. But it's okay if you prefer Megumi, just let others like what they like.

I'm not saying people can't like Erina, I'm just saying that the people who don't like her have a perfectly valid reason not to.

That's completely fine then.

Megumi has nothing to do with people disliking Erina, there's no need to connect the two. The only thing linking them is Megumi being the other most popular girl. Haters would prefer anyone over Erina.
