What Makes Him a Hate Sink?

• During his days as an instructor in the military, he tortured his students by beating them, as shown by the photos of them being heavily bruised.
• He assaulted several students of Class 3-E for no real reason other than sadism.
• Decided to "train" Class 3-E where he decided that half of the class will die after he put them through his violent training regimen.
• Even when he said he would kill Koro-sensei and save the planet, he only wanted to become famous due to training the assassin that would kill him.
• Tried to make Karasuma leave the school by placing a bet that any student who manages to harm him will be enough, but by handling the student a real knife, he was counting on the inexperience of the student.
• When Nagisa was selected, Takaoka decided to beat him up mercilessly.
• His defeat is played with satisfaction.
• When Asano Sr confronted him, he expressed disgust towards Takaoka's teaching style and fired him on the spot.
• While he was humiliated by his colleagues for his loss to Nagisa and he was eventually arrested, these situations are not played for sympathy as he deserved them for trying to kill the students.
• Contracted 3 assassin, Grip, Smog and Gastro to kill the Class 3-E when they arrived at his hotel.
• To take his revenge, Takaoka ordered his assassins to concoct a deadly virus that would kill the students, despite Nagisa being the sole reason for his humiliation.
• Due to this, even the assassins have no respect for him, knowingly using a defunct virus and lying to him so that he doesn't get to kill children through them.
• Concocted a plan using Kayano and Nagisa as bait to finally kill Koro-sensei, utterly uncaring that his plan would kill them.
• Sadistically laughed when revealing himself as the real mastermind.
