Man, I don't have the energy to make another comment, but let's get over it...

>I think what people mean by him being a 'minor' character is that, at least in the anime and English translation of the LN, he hasn't contributed much to the plot aside from helping out in a major battle and acting as moral support. He's had enough screen/show time to be considered a side character, but not as much as many of the others. Also, I realise this might be a low blow but with Angelo saying "No one cares about him", it's probably cause Ricardo doesn't show as much interesting power wise or personality wise as other characters. That's just my perspective.

It's false on all levels. He contributed to the plot on so many occasions and caused a chain reaction. He rescued Otto, which he's the key character for Arc 4 and motivating Otto in the 1st place. Without Ricardo finding Otto in the 1st place, Subaru will have a hard time defeating Petelguese again and figuring out to convince Garf and kill Elsa and the White Rabbit. And if he hadn't volunteer to protect Julius, Julius would be dead and Ricardo would become his replacacle knight (which I would rather wanted to see). He does not have enough screentime when transition from WN to LN and the anime botched/cut his screentime twice as hard. And don't get me started with the manga. He is ABSOLUTELY interesting. He's not your stereotypical serious or depressed person that you picked up bingewatching another anime. He has a bright personality, strong, and not so serious attitude. He's basically the All Might of the series.

I'm not trying to be biast towards every other characters. They have their ups and downs. But they can't be, nor try to be, nor look like my uncle like he is. And before you say "Uncle? I thought he's your husbando or somewhat" I've already talked about that topic, so if you wanna read my backstory and talk about that topic, go to Strum's wall
