I never liked Neji. There were bits of his relationship with Hinata that appealed, but never quite enough for his earlier actions. I get why he had so much hate, it just didn't appeal. Chouji/Ino is one of only 3 potential pairings in the series who held any real interest for me, though. (Shikamaru/Temari and Kiba/Hinata being the other two, though none ever enough to ship or really follow.)
