I don't agree with that at all. Not the part where you say that she's an awful person, mind you, but the idea that relating to her makes you a terrible person as well.
She is always hateful, and hypocritical, and bitter, and every other flavor of terrible under the sun. But there's always a reason for it. She's not terrible for no reason, she's terrible for petty reasons; usually, embarrassment. Can't we all point to a point in our lives where we were embarrassed, so we did something stupid and hurtful to cover it up? Especially when we were self-conscious hormonal teenagers? Now remember that Tomoko lives in a state of almost perpetual humiliation. Is it any wonder she's so terrible?
That doesn't excuse her behavior, of course, any more than it excused our behavior when we acted like little shits. But it makes it understandable. And that's all we need for relateability.
