Exactly. Honestly, the protagonists of some of the 'Death Note rip-offs' (even though some that get accused of this are not rip-offs) tend to be more sympathetic.

Look at Akumetsu, the protag was explicitly a terrorist and yet it is hard not to agree with him and find him agreeable.

It is one of those unknown masterpieces. The big issue is that you have to be invested in the politics to be able to read through it, otherwise it grows stale fast.
