Why does /a/ hate Light but love Lelouch?
>>160491869
Because Lelouch didn't think of himself as a God, he knew his actions were fucked up

One wins at the end and is portrayed as a tragic fallen hero. The other loses at the end and is portrayed as a broken psychopath.
I personally will always like Light more though, simply because the show, or at least for the first 26 episodes or so, is better.

A hatred for soup can manifest as a love for Lelouch and a desire to see him succeed.
It also didn't help Light's case that his antagonist was both intelligent and charismatic. We got see all of Light's personality and thought process and compared to L he's a pretty shitty guy. In Code Geass you get to see both of them fairly equally, which made Suzaku look more terrible as the series went on. Also >>160491976, Lelouch had firmer grasp on reality.
>>160491869
Lelouch is more sympathetic. Light is just a dumb kid with a god complex.

Lelouch was a legitimately good person who pretended to be bad while Light was a legitimately bad one who (occasionally) pretended to be good.
Unlike Light, Lelouch actually values his friends and hated when they gotten into his bloody life (hence the "why didn't he just kill Suzaku" forced meme).
Lelouch done what he did for his sister, Light for his own ego.
>>160491869
It tears you apart to know that L finally let someone in to be his best, only, friend and then he is betrayed like that.

It's easier to sympathize with Lelouch because his grudge against Britannia is more personal.
Antiheroes are fucking great mostly because they are supposed to develop (progress or regress) along with their fucked up story.
cornered =/= regress
