For me it were Slash, Clear Sky, Star Flower, Darkstripe, Sol, Ashfur (PoT version) and Sleekwhisker.
Slash got on my nerves because he didn't even try that hard to really be intimidating while both Clear Sky and Star Flower made me mad with their almost constant arrogance/ somewhat narcissism.
Darkstripe was just useless, Sol disappointed my teen and adult self by also being rather weak but especially so during his second attempt at manipulating the Clans, Ashfur was or is still completely pathetic although he has definitely gotten more dangerous in the current arc, meanwhile Sleekwhisker actually got me to yell at my copy of Thunder and Shadow and later River of Fire with her utter hypocrisy.

Mapleshade.
She was this really cool, powerful, manipulative villain who preyed on cats who lost their way and takes advantage of their weakness. She manipulated Crookedkit, making him promise to be loyal to the code and he'll have everything he could ever want, but it has a price to pay for. Because of this promise she gave him, she has successfully manipulated him into thinking all these deaths were his fault because of the promises he made with her. Mapleshade wanted someone to understand her pain, someone to suffer the way she did, and Crookedstar was an easy target. She wanted him to blame himself for things that weren't his fault, but her own manipulation made him believe that it was because of their promise they made together. Mapleshade was very good at manipulating other cats and ruining their own lives because of it, which made her such an interesting villain to me.
But then her backstory came out.
I didn't mind it, at first. It gave her a valid reason to turn out the way she did, being rejected by her Clanmates for taking a RiverClan mate. She lost her kits, she was exiled, and Appledusk rejected her so he can stay in his clan, and took a RiverClan mate. Before her story came out, I liked it because it was new and refreshing, and tragic. It made SENSE. She went through a lot of grief, loved many cats, only for her to go downhill, and be punished just because she loved.
However, her novella explains this differently. In her novella, Mapleshade is entitled, stupid, arrogant, and has unrealistic desires for her kits. Mapleshade doesn't respect her clan or the warrior code, and she doesn't seem to care that she betrayed her Clanmates. In the previous books she was in, she claimed she loved, but in her novella, it shows to me that she's selfish and only cares about herself. Mapleshade doesn't think twice about what she does, she uses Freckle's grief as a cover-up, and expects Raven to keep the secret for her that she caused from her own crimes by breaking the warrior code.
She claims she loves Appledusk, but Mapleshade acts possessive and weird in her own story. She uses her own kits as trophies, acting like because she had the kits with Appledusk, he belongs with her. She doesn't care about Reedshine and is immediately hostile with her, and then later on attempts to kill her because "Appledusk was hers". She was really weird and possessive with Apple, and her kits.
She really doesn't think at all. Mapleshade took her kits to the river, and because of this mistake it cost their lives. I know Oakstar exiled them in the first place and I agree that he shouldn't have done this, and I don't like him either, but Mapleshade was as much fault for their deaths as he was. She forced them to swim in the river, when the kits knew it wasn't safe. Because she didn't think about the safety of her kits, she ended up losing their lives. She snapped at them instead, and her own kits knew it wasn't safe to cross the river.
Mapleshade thought everything would be okay once the truth came out. She expected her Clanmates to forgive her mistakes when she was the one who lied about Birchface, using a highly respected warrior that her Clanmates cared about, used Freckle's grief, tried to BEG for a MEDICINE CAT to wipe her ass for her when MAPLESHADE HERSELF CAUSED HER OWN MISTAKES, and asks a medicine cat, a cat who's supposed to be honest and loyal to his clan, telling him not to tell the secret??? Mapleshade, you shouldn't have brought them to the river in the first place, you took them outside of the camp, you mated with a RiverClan cat and broke the code, you lied to Freckle about her own brother, and you seriously have the nerve to think everything would be okay after this??
She became very annoying in her novella. Mapleshade said she didn't do anything wrong multiple times, and acted like she and her kits were very important would solve everyone's problems. She never thought about their safety, not once did she think twice about it. She didn't plan ahead, and if Mapleshade didn't break the code multiple times, none of this would've happened. She's an extremely frustrating character I've grown to hate over the years. She started to appear in every single novella, and she didn't need to appear in Tigerclaw's. It's obvious she began to appear to please the fans, and even to this day, in The Broken Code, that selfish jerk is still alive in this arc! At this point, every moment of her annoys me,and she serves nothing to the plot but to make the fans happy for one moment and poof, she's gone! She was so cool, she was manipulative and intimidating, but became selfish, whiny, possessive, disrespectful, and stupid when her own story came out. She acted like she had ambitions (I'm pretty sure she wanted to be deputy?), she claimed used loved her Clanmates, but her novella says something different to me. I hate her. I can't stand this bitch. And I'm leaving it at that. I'm not looking for a debate about this.
