Zhu Bajie must be one of the most unlikeable characters in fiction. Sanzang is similarly among the most credulous, but at least he appears to be fazed by the violence that even Avalokiteshvara doesn't seem to mind. Sun Wukong was too powerful for the armies of Heaven, so why is he so weak when fighting a single monster now?

Sun Wukong is disturbingly inept now. In the beginning, before his confinement, the combined armies of Heaven were no match for him. Now he goes running to Avalokiteshvara for help every time he runs into a little monster!
