Actually now that I think about it how bad of a person even was Eleanor? Like how many lives did she ruin? She was just selfish and had a bitchy demeanor.
Bojack caused Sarah Lynn’s death, tried to sleep with a teenage girl, gave a teenager alcohol poisoning, got his best friend fired and then didn’t bother to talk to him until right before his death, tried to get a married woman with kids and a husband to leave them to be with him, cheats on his girlfriends, put the burden of his almost-death on Diane, lost a shit ton of charity money just to spite Daniel Radcliffe, literally defaced a national monument to impress a married woman, just to name a few.
The thing about bojack too is even though he “tried to better himself” he literally couldnt. Some things he just wasnt capable of understanding.
When he apologized to Herb, like a kid in kindergarten he just didnt understand that Herb does not owe him forgiveness. He cant just apologise and expect the people he hurt to drop all their feelings. When he tried to apologise to Penny too. It came from a good place(heh), but he stalked her and humiliated her and just didnt understand how maybe after 5 years showing up again to apologise will cause more harm than good.
Every time Bojack tried to better himself it was still very selfish, he did it so he could feel better and would (often) ruin it even more for the people he was apologising to.
why do you list Bojack’s bad deeds and not Eleanor’s? she put lives in danger, she hurt teenagers, she hurt animals, she sexually harassed a mailman, she actively supported a sexual predator, laughed at a video where he groped a woman, yelled at her boyfriend for wanting to boycott the predator… do you need more? because the list goes on.

when he saved the baby seahorse or found hollyhock’s mom he did it so he could feel better?
