Minerva is one of those characters people love to hate, because they accept what a good villain she is :D And I agree, Ultear was awesome too, but she had a VERY long run as a villain(perhaps the longest). If she kept up being evil even after betraying Hades, it would get unrealistic at a point ._. stabbing people behind the back and allying with someone more evil every time.
