I wouldn't say he's the best character, perhaps not even in the top 10, but I like him and his demeanor, although I understand why some may see him as offputting.A curious comparison. I am interested to see what your take on Dedue is... he would likely fit interestingly into your comparison. And I will read that monster RP post once I have half an hour to spare.

Dedue strikes me as similar to Hubert in his loyalty.

In fairness, every 'advisor' character is as loyal as the next. What is interesting about Cyril, is he is very loyal, but Seteth is the key advisor of Rhea's.

I wonder what Hilda is like...

From the few interactions I've had with Dedue, I like him. My issue with Cyril is all of Byleth's supports I've seen with him so far just focus on Rhea.

Hubert does have a personality. He just is devoted to Edelgard.

Cyril is far more subdued than Hubert.

Admittedly, most of Hubert's personality quirks aren't endearing.

But they're interesting if nothing else.

Right now, if I ranked the advisers (Knowing next to nothing about Hilda and Dedue) I'd rank them as follows:

1. Hubert
2. Hilda
3. Dedue
4. Seteth

Of course, that is because I know Hubert, while I'm only starting to understand Seteth and he is bothering me...

But I actually do like Seteth. It's just his remarks about a certain someone peeving me off.

I'm just guessing I'll like Hilda, from what I know about her. Dedue seems cool, but Hilda interests me more. Seteth is great he just needs to shut up about our glorious leader.

I was mostly joking about Gilbert, though his relationship with a certain redhead does bother me... I have to play Blue Lions first, but I can say the Edelgard community hates him.

Maybe Gilbert is the inverse of Edelgard...

My opinion of Hubert improved after the second playthrough. I think he just looks boring compared to the other Black Eagles, who are all stand-out characters, but his supports with Bernie, Byleth, and Petra are great.
