Well, if he's a douche, everyone knows he's a douche, the creator knows he's a douce, and the character himself knows he's a douce, then you know he's a douche. He does have his moments, and it could be he decided to make sure Gon grew up as someone who wasn't a douche. Now, that makes him less of a character... And more of a person. Can't go wrong there.

Unlike certain series where the main characters are douces, and yet, we are supposed to like them. (Looking at you, flames of Recca).
