Ender from Ender's Game. He doesn't have an obnoxious fan-club. He is a literal child so you don't have "shippers" creating fan-art with him. He is just a normal human that was conditioned to be the best commander the human-race could produce. He 100% accomplished what he was born to do so you have a fully complete story and no need to start coming up with a "greater evil" or whatever that ultimately just undermines and dilutes what defined his character to begin with. His flaws are obvious and realistic and the story incorporates them so that he isn't some kind of magic hero that never faces a challenge in the accomplishment of his mission.
