The main issue is how utterly pathetic and poorly written the main character is. He’s supposed to be an 80-year-old scholar and a god, yet he behaves like a scared, clueless child. As someone who has studied Greek mythology for years—and even has a book to reference with hades soul inside—you’d expect him to know how to embody Hades, one of the least conspicuous gods. Instead, he constantly wimps out, showing fear even toward Cerberus, his own pet. He panics in front of everyone, cowering before his fellow gods, including his sisters, nieces, and nephews. At one point, he freezes in terror while claiming not to fear Zeus, clearly waiting for his own demise. When faced with challenges, he doesn’t rise to the occasion; instead, he either runs or handles them in the most disgraceful way, completely tarnishing his reputation. It’s absolutely pathetic.
