Honestly, Mineta is a more developed and even more likeable character than Caim.

That isn't saying much though. They're both just nasty. One is just a more nuanced nasty than the other.
It is crazy that you think Mineta is more well developed/written than Caim.
Don't get me wrong; I hate both of these characters, on god I do. But Caim has done more for the plot of Mairuma, than Mineta has.

What's really funny, is that his ambition is the closet thing I can relate to. Not the be popular for girls but just aiming for something purely for himself. No greater goal to be a king, hero, top achiever or whatever. Also he is not that disgusting as I initially thought he was going to be. He is goofy and honest.

Bro, he had to be brainwashed to be normal... HOW THE FUCK IS HE BETTER THAN CAIM WHO HAD ACTUALLY CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT

Yeah, that tracks. No deep reasoning, no big important goal, he just wants to be popular. Totally infitting with everything he's done in the series. Honestly, I'm glad they didn't try to make him redeemable, he's still just the same pervert he's always been and there's no other reason for his conviction.

I just wish Caim's mother taught him to not be a complete creep, at least openly, that'd have helped him a lot more in demon society. But the trait runs in the family going by the description of his father.

Caim appears to have made the crucial, yet common mistake of confusing lack of restraint with honesty. Honesty doesn't require you to broadcast your thoughts to everyone you meet. Especially not the lewd ones.

There are so many people with this level of lack-of-self-awareness in real life and it sucks and I hate it.
Misguided at best - like someone stuck on the idea that being buff or having a lot of money is what will make them "Popular"

If he'd realized that doing what he just did would actually be what made him popular with those two girls, if feels like at least he could make that change and throw himself at it as earnestly as being a "Gentleman"

Mr. Hat's lessons in trying to understand and study the motivations of magical beasts has probably at least partially set him upon that path, along with this event. On the other hand, his shenanigans are easy comic relief, so who knows how much progress he'll actually make. He'll probably backslide some, at the least. But I think he's got good odds of progressing towards some level of increased self-awareness.
