All of this, except for Usagi and Seiya. Seiya is a pathetic emotional manipulator in the 90s anime and is probably worse than all the kidnappers, groomers etc on the show. Luna and Rhett are my ship, and human Artemis and Minako.
He was needy because even Kakyuu does not want him.

I kind of give Seiya a pass since she's basically a teenage girl living in a male body on another planet...or possibly she could even be a milleniums-year-old alien ...who knows?
But her behavior is not attractive either as Kou Seiya or Star Fighter.
The anime tries to play it off that she's just being supportive of Usagi, and to some extent, that's true.
But she's also creepy, manipulative, and also knows she's not available and comes off as someone wanting to get their kicks while in town then get out when it's convenient.
I think she does come to care for Usagi genuinely, but she almost made Usagi a wreck. In some ways, I do think Usagi needed Seiya, she wasn't opening up to her friends and when Seiya threw that rose, Usagi finally broke down, like she needed to, so she could heal.
But then she just had to ask: "Am I not enough?"
No, Seiya! She's hurt, confused and you just come barging in thinking because you're cute you can fix it all.

It reminds me of how abusive Haruka is in the manga. Even if Neptune isn't upset, it's disrespectful to her and straight-up cruel to Usagi.

In that case he should have swapped sides. Galaxia looks better anyways and gives you cool things.
Perhaps both Chibiusa and Seiya can join Galaxia.

THIS! Hot take but 90's Seiya is even more of a creep than Demande (or at least 90's Demande). At least Demande is up-front with his sliminess and doesn't pretend to be someone better than he is, Seiya meanwhile is emotionally manipulative and tries to take advantage of Usagi in her time of need hoping to gain something from her rather than just being there and actually supporting her like someone who really loved her would. Plus the narrative clearly condemns Demande's actions and treats it as the heinous behaviour it is while glorifying Seiya's and expecting the audience to feel sorry for them when they're just being manipulative and trying to make it all about themselves.
