How can I like Katou so much when I used to hate him?

I am now buried in Angel Sanctuary manga. I would seriously kill for a plot summary. You know what, I think I'm going to go through all the volumes I have and do one myself. That way, when I get confused as to what went on, I can go back to it and have some semblame of a clue.

This will take forever.
