2. When I think I truly started to like them

When I first watched the show as a kid, I liked him for all the same reasons I liked the other kids: he's hilarious. They all are. As an adult, I appreciate the dynamic he adds to the group. Other than him and Sarah, most of the kids will give the Eds the benefit of the doubt and be fairly friendly with them up until the Eds earn their scorn. Having Kevin (and Sarah, though Kevin being the sort of leader of the other kids makes his hatred of the Eds more influential to the direction of each episode) there to immediately doubt and suspect the Eds adds some realism to the show. And what good cartoon about the lives of kids doesn't have a bully? And he's not a two dimensional bully, either. Like every other kid in the show, he's got other shit going on that the writers explore, which is one of the best parts of eene. His awkward and flailing relationship with Nazz even tho he's supposed to be the "cool kid" is just so real and funny. And his friendship with Rolf, who a character like Kevin would typically bully in other cartoons, shows that Kevin isn't just out here to pick on kids who are different. You've got to earn his dislike to some extent. Also there's his "rivalry" with Eddy, which fuels a lot of really fucking funny episodes. He reminds me a bit of the bully characters in Hey Arnold. He's not just there to be an asshole every episode. There's more to him.

10. Describe them in one sentence

Stale end piece of white bread 🍞

23. Future headcanon

Nazz dumps him after she goes away for college and he becomes one of those people who never leaves the town they grew up in. He's pretty happy remaining in Peach Creek though. He's still got Rolf to hang with.

28. The most unnecessary thing they ever did?

Smile for the Ed. No explanation needed. Unlike most people, though, I really like this episode lol. It's funny and very in character for Kevin and Eddy, and feels a bit like comeuppance for the booster shot scam. And I like episodes where Eddy is a genuine victim, like x marks the Ed. And a certain sock hatted someone usually sticks up for him in such episodes.
